Bystander (G)
[T]
Useful handicapper for Karl Burke in 2024. Back from long absence when runner-up in a seller at Wolverhampton 61 days ago, before finishing ninth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (8/1) 21 days ago when doing too much too soon on front end. Ha…

Shimmering Spin (G)
Won a maiden at this course (8f) in September and placed third here 42 days ago before finishing fifth of 12 at Newcastle (20/1) 21 days ago under a more patient ride. Dropping down in grade will help but step back up to 10f poses a questi…

Digub (F)

[H]
360,000 gns Sea The Stars filly made a promising debut at Newmarket before winning a novice at Southwell (5/2) 20 days ago in first-time hood. Faces a significant step up in trip on handicap debut but could have more to come.

Parlando (G)
Finished fifth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (20/1) 21 days ago, making headway when switched approaching final furlong but no extra late on. Now below last winning mark and could be building up to something now dropped in class.

Under The Sun (G)

No show on Flat for new yard and finished last of 8 in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (20/1) 31 days ago, showing little despite cheekpieces being added. Needs improvement switching back to AW.

Almekarem (C)
[H1]
Won a novice race on AW in September. Sixth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (10f) 13 days ago (15/2), pulling hard and weakening in the final furlong after making headway over 2f out. First-time hood may help him settle better and remains on…

War Chant (G)
Won over C&D but ran eighth of 10 in handicap over 8f at Chelmsford (20/1) 42 days ago, possibly needing the run having recently changed yards. Now back up in trip and below last winning mark. Not dismissed.

Hinchinbrooke (C)
[P1]
Improved with back-to-back second-place finishes after summer slump. Recently finished second of 13 at Kempton Park, beaten only by a well-bred one. First time in cheekpieces and has potential to win from current handicap mark.

Alpine Oasis (M)
Fairly useful handicapper who ran creditably when third in fillies' event at Southwell (11f) 292 days ago. Wasn't seen to best effect when 7th of 12 at this C&D (20/1) 14 days ago, first run since changing stables. Now below last winning m…
