4 yo Filly
OR: 77
Front-runner; respectable second over 2m here (good) two weeks ago; gained her last two wins in heavy-ground contests at this course (1m4f/1m6f) and warrants plenty of respect granted such conditions.

29th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Front-runner; unraced here but a familiar face at Chester and runner-up there (2m/1m4f) on three of her last five starts; not disgraced there on latest; needs to be in peak form but even that might not be enough. |
8/1 |
|
6th 1 (2) |
21st Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 87y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Dual course winner who handles most ground and has finished runner-up here (2m/1m4f) in her last two starts; up 3lb but this front-runner went down fighting in a close second last Saturday and should make another bold bid back up in trip. |

4 yo Colt
OR: 66
Ex-Irish maiden who has low mileage; encouraging form since joining the Faulkner stable, keeping-on fourth over C&D (good to soft) most recently; possibilities, provided he builds on that effort.

4 yo Gelding
OR: 81
Unproven on soft/heavy; good efforts on AW the last twice; successful in his last three turf attempts and has to be feared, despite being much higher in the weights now; steadily progressive.

7th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Completed a turf hat-trick in July/August and ran well at Newcastle (12.5f) on the return to AW; remains in form and, having proved consistent since May, looks a solid contender. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 (10) |
22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Placed on Polytrack on last two AW starts, after poor show on Southwell Tapeta; left all that form behind with 1m4f wins on turf at Ffos Las, Thirsk and Windsor this summer, the latest one week ago; has 5lb penalty (1lb lower than future mark) and goes on the shortlist given his upward curve. |
4/1 |

5 yo Colt
OR: 66
Bit to prove in this scenario, having gained both wins in Class 5 events over 1m2f; however, those May performances were his last two attempts on slow ground; the forecast surface is in his favour.

22nd Aug 2024 Standard 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Won on on turf (1m2f) in first two starts for current yard but he's not posed a threat in last three runs; still unexposed on AW but he's struggled in two previous runs at staying trips and others are preferred. |
11/2 |
10/1
Form: 4-4824

11 yo Gelding

Multiple winner at up to 1m2f and retains a fair level of ability aged 11; has bits of 1m4f form but a testing surface would give him something to prove over this distance.

11yo who runs off the same mark as when winning this last year (good) and he went very close at Nottingham (1m2f, good) last time; key player. |

5th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Recorded his third turf win when beating three rivals at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) in June but he's not easy to predict and has struggled at Newbury and Epsom since; still unexposed on AW but has a wide draw back in this sphere and others are more convincing. |

5 yo Gelding

Successful over 2m on AW and 2m3f over hurdles; absent since a heavy defeat in the Chester Plate (2m2f) in May; drops back markedly in trip and doesn't look the percentage call.

14th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |

steadied start, switched left soon after start, held up in last, struggling 5f out, soon detached, tailed off from 4f out |
16/1 |

15th 12 (9) |
10th May 2024 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Below form sole start here, when upped to 2m last September on latest Flat outing (yard debut); 80-1 win on handicap hurdle debut at Doncaster (2m3f, good to soft) in December, followed by two respectable efforts but he was soundly beaten on latest start; others are a bit more persuasive. |
18/1 |
