Form: 520112 D

TIMEFORM VIEW Found some improvement in recent starts, scoring at Newmarket and Ripon before a good second back Newmarket (all 1m) last time. Ought to go well again. TF RatingHHHHH BHA 77

9-7 (6)

Jockey: Joanna Mason (3) Trainer: Michael & David Easterby, Sheriff Hutton

Form: 246

TIMEFORM VIEW Went close on Southwell AW debut in April. Well below that level on turf twice since but retains potential now handicapping after a break. Needs keeping an eye on in the market. I TF RatingHHHII BHA 74

3 TROMSO (FR) (38) Ch g Twilight Son - Soar Owner: Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum Jockey: Kevin Stott Breeder: SARL Baileys Haras Des Trois Chapelles Trainer: Kevin Ryan, Hambleton Probable S.P.: 9-1

9-5 (2)

Form: 0-320

TIMEFORM VIEW Fair form when placed in 7f novices at Leicester and Thirsk this year. Bit disappointing when well held on handicap debut back at Thirsk last month. Hasn’t obviously been shaping as if in need of 1m. TF RatingHHIII BHA 72

4 CHASE THE DOLLAR (GB) (21) B c Frankel - Cape Dollar (IRE) Owner: Mr Saeed Suhail Breeder: Rabbah Bloodstock Limited Jockey: Joe Fanning Trainer: Mark Johnston, Middleham

Probable S.P.: 7-1 Sponsor: Johnston Racing Ltd

9-5 (4)

Form: 232050

TIMEFORM VIEW Hasn’t fired in recent starts but he is starting to look well handicapped based on the form he showed when runner-up twice during the summer. TF RatingHHHHI BHA 72

9-4 (3)

Form: 03-0414 CD

TIMEFORM VIEW C&D winner in June. Respectable 2 lengths fourth of 6 back here in July. Could play a part if ready to roll after a short break. TF RatingHHHHI BHA 71

9-3 (5)

Form: 656300 C

TIMEFORM VIEW Course winner last summer but he’s largely struggled to make an impact in handicaps this term. Down another 2lb but others still appeal more. TF RatingHHIII BHA 70

7 UNDER FOX (IRE) (31) B g Dandy Man (IRE) - Lily’s Rainbow (IRE) Owner: King Power Racing Co Ltd Jockey: David Allan

Breeder: Ardrums House Stud Trainer: Tim Easterby, Malton
