33/1

C&D winner. 16/1, never threatened after 5 months off when ninth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 4 weeks ago. Cheekpieces back on. Below last winning mark but needs to show more.

18/1

Wasn't disgraced on first outing since leaving Kevin Frost after 8 weeks off when seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 14/1) 18 days ago. Entitled to strip fitter for that here.

Brividi³⁷

Fiftyshadesaresdev^t³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Joanna Mason| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 52

9/2

Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. 12/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at this C&D 37 days ago, collared final 50 yds. Solid each-way claims but others obviously more appeal from a win perspective.

Come On John^p⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: S D Bowen⁽³⁾| T: James Owen| OR: 52| BF| C

5/6

Course winner, latest here in October. 5/6, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 4 days ago, headed final 1f. Back up in trip. Thriving at present so expected to be bang there back under a top apprentice.

Forecasts

Come On John (5/6), Fiftyshadesaresdev (9/2), Opticality (13/2), Kojin (8/1), Pilgrim Of Culture (16/1), Sisterandbrother (18/1), Zousca (20/1), Mr Nugget (20/1), Brividi (22/1), Busby (28/1), Ricardo Phillips (33/1), Carlos Felix (33/1)

Cases can be made for several, but the vote goes to COME ON JOHN, who has made a fine start for current connections and went down by just a head at Wolverhampton on Monday. Zousca got going much too late last month and having switched yards since, she could give the selection most to think about. Opticality and Fiftyshadesaresdev can fight out minor honours.
