To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
Having hit the frame on his last three outings, Falcon Nine must enter calculations. The six-year-old performed with credit in similar testing conditions on last year's card and he isn't taken lightly, but MOTAWAARED is slightly more appealing. Jim Goldie's inmate arrives on the back of a close-up second over a mile here and a return to 1m2f could prove just the ticket. Ghost Story is the pick of the remainder.
Top Tip:
Motawaared
(6)
Watch out for:
Falcon Nine
(9)
The ground looks set to be pretty testing so probably best to stick with those who are proven with plenty of give underfoot. Falcon Nine is one, having run well on heavy ground in the past, and he's also entering the race in good form having placed on his last three starts. Spanish Hustle is another, although his good run of form came to an end last time. He's still a player, but it's MOTAWAARED who is the selection. He's been in good form on similar ground and is well worth a step back up in trip if ridden with a little more patience.

2025: No corresponding race
Forecast: 11/8 Sea Mirage , 5/2 Caturra Rock , 3/1 Muve On , 14/1 Coul Blue , 16/1 Alfa Blueburd , 20/1 Queen Bee For You , 50/1 Howard's Hobby
Last Updated: 08 Oct 2026 14:42:20
To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
SEA MIRAGE posted his best effort to date when runner-up in a competitive nursery at Hamilton last month and makes obvious appeal reverting to a class 5 novice. An official rating of 74 suggests that a race of this nature is well within his compass and he's fancied to fend off likely improver Caturra Rock. A promising second on his debut at Yarmouth, Ed Dunlop's colt should make his presence felt, along with Muve On.
Top Tip:
Sea Mirage
(2)
Watch out for:
Caturra Rock
(1)
This isn't much of a novice and the top one CATURRA ROCK looks the one to side with after he made a pleasing debut at Yarmouth. The ground was good to soft that day and it's going to be much deeper here, but he's got a bit of scope about him and looks the likely winner granted normal progress. Sea Mirage showed he handles soft when runner-up at Hamilton last time and he should again go well tried in cheekpieces so looks the danger. Third choice is Muve On, who looks a possible improver upped to 6f.

Lesley's Boy has posted a couple of creditable performances in defeat at Hamilton and his latest runner-up effort there suggests that his turn may not be far away, although he bumps into BIG APPLE JACK again. The Easterbys' gelding had Lesley's Boy back in fourth when getting off the mark and was then close up at Ripon on ground that was quicker than ideal. Long Shot could also have a say from the foot of the weights.
Top Tip:
Big Apple Jack
(3)
Watch out for:
Lesley's Boy
(2)
This can go to LAUNCH TIME, who has handled heavy ground in the past and should be happier now back on turf. He struggled on sand last time at Laytown and the step back up in trip looks in his favour while blinkers could help a little. Bossy Parker, back on turf for the first time in 2026, has handled heavy ground in the past and looks the danger, although Lesley's Boy and Big Apple Jack are closely matched, in form rivals who handle cut as well.

You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
Defeated by just a head at Hamilton recently, compensation could be on the cards for TOPWARRIOR. The four-year-old is 2lb well-in and reverting to his only winning distance should aid his cause. Annie Edson Taylor lost little in defeat when thwarted in her bid to record a hat-trick at the same course and she may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of another well-treated rival in Parisiac.
Top Tip:
Topwarrior

Watch out for:
Annie Edson Taylor

Let's side with the top weight EYE OF DUBAI, who was a C&D winner in the Bronze Cup two starts back before two starts back before running a little below his best back on drier ground next time. Conditions here are more in his favour and he's expected to return to form dropped into Class 4 company. Parisiac is coming off a good second on similar ground over C&D last time and rates the danger, although Topwarrior returned to form when runner-up over 5f last time and, with the ground likely no issue, he's very much considered also.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
EMPIRESTATEOFMIND has won two of his last three starts, finishing a neck second on the other occasion, and is hard to oppose without a penalty for his apprentice race success over 1m here last week. One Night Thunder scored over C&D on the same card and is an obvious threat to the selection, while Cisco Disco edges out Emery Down and Valentine Catcher to be best of the rest.
Top Tip:
Empirestateofmind
(5)
Watch out for:
One Night Thunder
(1)
Empirestateofmind has won two of his last three and likes this ground so must go well with him having escaped a penalty for his last-time-out course win, but there's a good chance that TACTICAL PLAN will return to form now back on his favoured surface. Both career wins have come with lots of cut and he hasn't run on such ground since finishing a good fourth of 15 at Doncaster 12 months ago - he's now 10lb lower. He's taken to return to form. Cisco Disco is another to consider having returned to winning ways over 8f here last time.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
RORY'S GOLD bolted up over 1m2f at Newcastle and the ease of that success suggests that the four-year-old could be hard to beat once again, despite an 8lb rise. Blufferonthebus was a neck second over 7f here last time and could give the selection plenty to think about, while similar comments apply to Keats House. Recent Beverley winner Evelyn's Phoenix is also noted.
Top Tip:
Rory's Gold
(1)
Watch out for:
Blufferonthebus
(4)
Coming off a breakthrough success at Newcastle, RORY'S GOLD has gone up 8lb but could still be ahead of his mark now back on turf. His only previous run with plenty of give underfoot came at this course, finishing third over C&D on soft, and he's favoured to Flying Moonlight, who ran well over 12f on heavy last time and should be happier back down in trip. Keats House is on a fair mark, handles give and should again go well making him third choice.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
It is hard to oppose AIGHEAR, who went in by nine lengths over 1m7f here last week and Jim Goldie's mare only has to carry a 4lb penalty on this occasion. With that in mind, last year's winner tops the shortlist ahead of recent Hamilton scorers Off Spin and Wootton's Gal. The former would be the marginal pick of that pair, while Furhaan has plenty to find with the selection.
Jim Goldie has a decent record in this and he holds a strong hand with Furhaan and Aighear, second and first respectively in a race over 2f further on heavy ground here nine days ago. Success for either wouldn't surprise, but there's surely more to come still from the 3yo WOOTTON'S GAL who is coming off a breakthrough success on similarly deep ground at Hamilton. As a 3yo she's open to further progress.
