Get Shirty⁶²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 88| D

16/1

Much improved in 2022 when scoring 4 times at up to 14f. Winless since but retains plenty of ability judged on his Ascot Stakes fourth and no surprise if he bounces back making belated AW debut after a break.

Form: 536400

Dramatic Star⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Harry Davies| T: W J Haggas| OR: 85| BF

1/1

Progressed well in maiden/novices, emphatically landing a maiden at Hamilton (11f, good to firm) in June. Short in the betting but no show at Haydock and in the Melrose at York subsequently. Has been gelded and has sights lowered now tackling AW. Could be set for a big run.

Form: 32100

Forecasts

Dramatic Star (1/1), King Lear (3/1), Marhaba The Champ (9/1), La Pulga (14/1), Lucander (14/1), Get Shirty (16/1), Kolossal (20/1), Capital Theory (33/1), Chichester (66/1)

None of these look particularly solid but GET SHIRTY is lower in the weights than he's been for some time and has solid claims if returning in the same sort of form that saw him finish fourth in the Ascot Stakes in June. 3-y-o Dramatic Star has been gelded since his Melrose flop and could get back on track. King Lear is another to consider.
