| 3rd | 1 | 9 |
Urban Road (G)
[V]
C&D winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year. 28/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 21 days ago. Back down in trip. Others more persuasive.

Down To The Kid (G)
3-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 8 runs this year. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (9/2). Off 6 months. Each-way claims.

J Mitchell | M Herrington | 6 | 60.8 kg |

Renesmee (M)
[P]
3 wins from 10 runs this year. Posted career best when landing 11-runner handicap (22/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 42 days ago, driven clear. Raised 9 lb since but must enter calculations.

Darragh Keenan | Michael Keady | 5 | 60.8 kg |

| 1st | 4 | 1 |
Hale End (G)
[P]
Back from 9 weeks off when creditable third of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 9/1) 21 days ago, needing stronger gallop. 1 lb lower now and is one for the shortlist.

Sean Kirrane | M Dods | 5 | 59.4 kg |

| 6th | 5 | 2 |
Double Time (G)
[HT]
Latest win at Kempton in October. Bit below form fourth of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, soft, 7/1) 43 days ago. Others more appealing.
|
P Mulrennan | Tim Vaughan | 7 | 59 kg |

11/1

| 7th | 6 | 5 |
Soames Forsyte (G)
[P]
Unreliable sort. C&D winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year. Latest win at Nottingham in July. 28/1, last of 10 in handicap at this C&D 56 days ago, very slowly away. Makes limited appeal.

Dylan Hogan | M Herrington | 6 | 58.5 kg |

Triggerman (G)
FAV
[P]
C&D winner who was returning from 3 months off when creditable third of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 24 days ago, well positioned. Cheekpieces back on. Enters calculations.
|
Tom Kiely-Marshall | Miss J A Camacho | 4 | 58.1 kg |

| 4th | 8 | 10 |
Dream Pirate (G)
[B]
5/1, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 24 days ago, not ideally placed. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.
|
P Cosgrave | T Kent | 5 | 57.6 kg |

6/1
|
| 8th | 9 | 6 |
Noisy Music (F)
Latest win at Wolverhampton in August. 11/4, sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 10 days ago. Not out of things.
|
Saffie Osborne | M Appleby | 4 | 57.6 kg |
9.50
17/2
|
| 5th | 10 | 4 |
Rising Force (G)
15/8, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW). Off 110 days. Worth monitoring in market on yard debut.
