Bell Shot (G)
[V]
First of 12 in a 6f handicap at Southwell (33/1) 8 days ago, bouncing back to form after needing previous runs and overcoming an interrupted run. Up 4lbs and back up in trip here.

Dosman (G)
Eighth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (50/1) 23 days ago, not seen to best effect after being sold for just 4,000 gns. Form since changing stables raises significant doubts.

Bela Sonata (F)
Won a maiden at Kempton and placed at Wolverhampton after a poor debut. Won a 7f handicap at Newbury (14/1) in a field of 9 some 174 days ago, showing excellent change of pace despite awkward start. Still lightly raced after just 4 starts …

Best Rate (G)
[B]
Consistent performer who finished fourth of 14 in a 7f handicap at Kempton (14/1) 65 days ago, extending his run of creditable efforts. Remains competitive despite going almost eleven months without a win.

Metaverse (G)

I Still Have Faith (G)
Finished second three times in 2025 but disappointed when 10th of 19 in handicap at York (13/2) 90 days ago, failing to sustain effort after missing the break. Returns from a break dropping back to 7f, a trip over which he went close at As…

Tennessee Gold (G)
[P1]
Showed useful form on AW, finishing fifth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (17/2) 22 days ago when racing freely and not ideally placed but should come on for that outing. First-time cheekpieces may help him concentrate.

Shiplake (G)
[H]
Improved since stable switch, catching the eye when sixth at Kempton (7f) two months ago. First of 13 in handicap at Southwell (7f) (15/8) 49 days ago, taking strong hold before being driven clear. Up 7 lbs but could still have more to off…

Little Empire (G)
Consistent performer in competitive handicaps, out of the frame just once at Dundalk this year. Finished a close second of 13 in a 7f handicap at Dundalk (7/2) 21 days ago, beaten just a short-head. Up 3 lbs but has winning form at this co…

Follow Your Heart (G)
[T]
Course specialist with 6 Wolverhampton wins, ran creditably when 4th of 8 as favourite (10/3) over C&D 3 days ago after winning here (9/1) 20 days ago. Consistent on AW.

Mythical Composer (C)

Consistent handicapper with winning performance before winning by a neck from Metaverse in 10-runner handicap at Kempton Park (17/2) 39 days ago. Up 3lbs but generally effective over 7f on AW.
