Verdict

EXPLOSIVE FINNISH arrives on an upward curve and is taken to defy a 6 lb rise for his course success in July. Managing Director has progressed with each run since returning from a long layoff and rates the chief danger despite his high draw, while Havana Rum and Call To Action are both on workable marks and look best of the rest.

    Verdict
    Landed the odds in 5f maiden last summer and made the frame in nurseries on final 2 starts of the campaign. Gelded prior to July's return at this course but went with no encouragement and, whilst booking of useful 5 lb claimer helps, he remains opposable unless market speaks firmly in his favour.

    Verdict
    Novice winner at Redcar last year, when also third in minor event at Thirsk behind a couple now rated 100+. Hasn't gone on as expected in handicaps this year, though and whilst yard has been in good form of late, hopes very much rest on a recent breathing operation finally unlocking his potential.

    Verdict
    Lightly raced and consistent performer who has found only a single rival too good on 3 of his 4 starts this year, arguably unlucky not to win when beaten a ½ length by Shazani in 10-runner event at Beverley on latest, slowly away and then hampered 2f out. In the mix for minor honours.

    Verdict
    Runner-up at Newcastle in June and over C&D in July. Continued in good form when close fourth of 5 to Rosenpur at Redcar last month. This looks more competitive, though, and a career best will be needed if he's to resume winning ways.

    Confirmed promise from earlier in the year when winning extended 5f handicap at this course in July by a head from Dolos Dream. A 6 lb rise demands further progress but there's every chance he has that in his locker given his age and overall profile. Of serious interest.

    Much improved performer this year, recording her fifth success in 11-runner handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) in August. Ran respectably off revised mark when 1¾ lengths third of 13 to Lethal Nymph at Newcastle last time. Further progress needed and high draw to overcome.

    Admirable veteran who showed an excellent attitude when adding to his tally at Beverley in May. More miss than hit since and, while he's clearly well handicapped, it's tough to see him landing an eighth success at this track.

    Forward-going type whose sole success came at Thirsk as a juvenile. Left Bryan Smart/off 21 months prior to return but has looked as good as ever this summer, most recently when second of 9 at Thirsk (5f, good) just over a fortnight ago. Wide stall to overcome but fancied to feature.

    Strong-travelling sort who found the gaps coming just in time when scoring with a bit up his sleeve at Chester in late-July and quickly got back on track when ¾-length second of 9 to South Shore at Sandown last time. This requires more, but likely to be suited by the way the race develops.
