Wadacre Gomez²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: R Kingscote| T: C Johnston| OR: 92

22/1

Seven wins from 24 Flat runs. Four wins from 12 runs last year. Latest win at Chelmsford City in July. 25/1, last of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 29 days ago. May have needed that first run for 4 months and this is a drop in class.

Barenboim^h²²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 89| D

33/1

12/1, first run since leaving Jamie Snowden when creditable second of 5 in handicap at this course (16.5f) 22 days ago, no match for winner. AW record is a positive one.

Moon Over Miami²⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Hector Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 91| D

11/8

Promising sort. Two wins from 2 runs last year. Won 6-runner novice (5/6) at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to soft). Off 8 months. Makes handicap debut for leading yard and mark could be a lenient one assuming all is well.

Arqoob²²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: S D Bowen⁽³⁾| T: L Wadham| OR: 88

40/1

Last of 8 in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (19.4f, good to soft, 8/1) 22 days ago. First Flat run for this yard and others more persuasive.

Gaassee^t²⁰³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: Jack Morland| OR: 87

22/1

Cheekpieces on for first time, seventh of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Chester (10.3f, soft). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Archie Watson and interesting to see what in-form new yard can do with him. Tongue tie on.

Old Harrovian^t⁶¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: A M Balding| OR: 86

4/1

Very good third of 14 in handicap (14/1) at Kempton (11f) 61 days ago, finishing with running left. Has to be of interest on the back of that promising run.

Asgard's Captain²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Kyle Strydom| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 84

15/2

Five wins from 13 runs last year. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (13/8) at Newcastle (10.2f) 23 days ago, driven out. Clearly in fine form but this is a deeper race.

In The Breeze⁴⁷⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: L Morris| T: M Appleby| OR: 84

66/1

15/2, didn't need to improve to win 9-runner handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, good to soft), overcoming pace bias. Off 15 months so well-being has to be taken on trust.

Glen Buck⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 83

5/2

Promising type. Won both starts in early 2023. 6/1, third of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 42 days ago, caught further back than ideal on his first run for 22 months off. More to come, particularly over this trip.

Forecasts

Moon Over Miami (11/8), Glen Buck (5/2), Old Harrovian (4/1), Asgard's Captain (15/2), God Of Fire (16/1), Woodstock City (16/1), Gaassee (22/1), Wadacre Gomez (22/1), Barenboim (33/1), Arqoob (40/1), In The Breeze (66/1)

A cracking handicap with several of these very interesting for one reason or another. MOON OVER MIAMI looked a potential pattern performer in the making when winning both starts in the spring and while he's been absent since, he's in top hands. This mark therefore could be lenient so he gets the vote in favour of Glen Buck and Old Harrovian.
