14:40 – JENEVER

Many of the in-form horses are drawn wide, including Symbol Of Hope and the hat-trick seeking Delagate This Lord. The Cola Kid seems to go well for the 5lb claimer Connor Planas but the suggestion is the progressive JENEVER. Jessica Macey’s runner was reeled in at Doncaster last time and the winner ran well at Haydock over the weekend.

15:10 – BUSSENTO

This looks a golden opportunity for Eve Johnson Houghton’s BUSSENTO, who showed his best form two and three starts back and has shaped as though this switch to sprinting from 7f should be fine. The other runners with experience have plenty to prove and the pick of the opposition could be the newcomer Back Tomorrow, who has some speed in her pedigree and is a half-sister to a debut winner at this track

15:40 – PINPOINT

This looks tricky and the market should be informative. Manali was a promising third behind a major improver over C&D three weeks ago and looks interesting if she can build on that, but it might be worth siding with Richard Hannon’s unexposed colt PINPOINT. He’s a half-brother to a fairly useful 5f 2yo winner and could show a lot more dropped to this trip on his nursery debut

16:10 – NEVENDON

Most have each-way claims. Whether Galactic Glow stays this trip is in doubt, including after a C&D appearance four starts back, but on the other hand having three wins this season is a glaring recommendation in the context of today’s rivals. He’s second choice to NEVENDON who carried over some recent creditable work over hurdles to a C&D race last time, and stuck to his task well enough that day to earn the vote. Mini Mildred is third on the list, given that she is lightly raced and got much closer in a C&D handicap last Friday.

16:40 – MY AMBITION

Eye Of The Water and Havana Goldrush are C&D winners this year but have had to settle for a supporting role to MY AMBITION more recently. Barring soft ground, which isn’t forecast, the selection should prove tough to beat after a career-best effort at Windsor. The still lightly raced Jack Sparowe (second choice) is one to note for John Butler.

17:15 – HAAF A DIAMOND

Preference is for HAAF A DIAMOND (nap), who made all at Leicester in June and built on that with her clear second behind a major improver there last time. She still has potential after only six starts and can get back on the scoresheet here. The main threat could come from last week’s Ffos Las runner-up Lunar Landscape, who looks interesting on his drop back in trip. Another key player is Perfect Gentleman, who could make a big impact if he gets some luck.
