1st	1	10	Massimo Blue (G) PT Won twice last year, including over C&D. Has shaped well on last 2 starts, caught wider than ideal when 2 lengths third of 11 to Landlordtothestars at Wolverhampton on latest. Has since joined a yard…	9-55331	K S McHugh Dylan Cunha	4	63.5kg	6 5/1
7th	2	6	Tough Enough (G) FAV Runner-up at this C&D in April but has struggled and merely extended his lengthy losing run since. This represents a notable drop in grade, though, so no surprise if he were to suddenly return to for…	020640	Oliver Carmichael A Brittain	6	63.5kg	4.33 10/3
8th	3	3	Lesley's Boy (G) P Not won since his 2-y-o days and hasn't fired in 3 starts this season, turning in a particularly laboured performance at Carlisle on latest. Cheekpieces back on in replace of a visor.	463-058	Jake Dickson R A Fahey	4	62.6kg	7 6/1
—	3	—	Middleton View (G)	957945	— S C Williams	4	63kg	—
2nd	4	12	Toptime (G) Enthusiastic type who shaped well on his return in June before readily making all in 6-runner handicap at Nottingham (5f) 6 days later. Confirmed himself still in good form when neck third of 10 to O…	104-313	Joe Bradnam S R Bowring	8	61.7kg	13 12/1
13th	5	4	Southern Warrior (C) Successful on handicap debut at Newcastle (6f) in March for George Scott but has shown little on turf for current connections. Returns to all-weather but difficult to make a case for him.	413508	Jude Fernandes Olly Williams	3	61.7kg	101 100/1
—	5	—	Insuspense (F)	222275	Alexandra Egan R Burdon	4	62.1kg	—
5th	6	7	Orange Emperor (G) H Fair maiden who has been runner-up twice in handicaps this year, most recently at Salisbury in June. Below that level both outings since, proving too free at 7f last time, and hood goes back on rever…	562365	Arron D'Arcy J R Fanshawe	3	61.2kg	26 25/1
9th	7	9	Federal Envoy (G) P All 3 wins over 7f at this course. Runner-up at Ripon in June and not seen to best effect when below that level on both outings since, caught wide and further back than ideal when 4¾ lengths fifth of…	905265	Toby Moore Charlie Clover	5	61.2kg	6 5/1
3rd	8	14	On Key (G) P Consistent and tough individual who gained a deserved first success when winning 7f handicap at Wolverhampton last month. Placed on both outings since, ½-length second of 10 to Manton Road at same tr…	231323	Charlie Tucker S Dixon	4	60.8kg	11 10/1
6th	9	2	Ahead Of Fashion (G) P Had the run of the race when second of 4 back in handicap company at Wolverhampton (7f) in May. Hasn't built on that effort in 2 starts since but dropping in the weights all the time.	7-77245	Donagh Murphy D J S Ffrench Davis	3	60.8kg	34 33/1
14th	10	5	Blackjack (G) B Multiple all-weather winner who turned in one of this season's better races when length third of 10 to On Key in 7f handicap at Wolverhampton last time. This looks more competitive, though.	907563	Alfie Redman A D Brown	9	60.3kg	23 22/1
12th	11	8	Torfrida (M) Has been given a chance by the handicapper and wasn't disgraced when 3½ lengths fourth of 8 to J Street at Southwell last time. The late headway she made that day suggests this return to 6f will suit.	9/2467-4	Isobelle Chalmers Mrs P Sly	6	60.3kg	15 14/1
4th	12	1	Big Apple Jack (G) Runner-up twice this year, including at Pontefract (6f) in June. Below form tried over 7f at Doncaster last time though and must prove his effectiveness on this surface.	284254	C J Whiteley M & D Easterby	4	59.9kg	6 5/1
11th	13	13	Great Success (G) Fair 3-y-o maiden who ran poorly on final outing for Richard and Peter Fahey in July. Subsequently sold for 3,500 gns and improvement needed for new connections.	005450	Alexandra Egan S Dixon	3	58.1kg	41 40/1
10th	14	11	Starsong (M) P Runner-up over C&D on return in March and bounced back to form when filling the same position at Pontefract 3 weeks ago. On a good mark if building on that returned to this venue.	435552	Jude Maher M Appleby	7	57.6kg	34 33/1
