Runners Spotlight

1
Ikigai Star
Favorite

3-12 over hurdles, the latest win gained in small field at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) in May; only 2lb higher here but this summer's hurdle/Flat form was below-par.

Jockey: Lilly PinchinTrainer: Charlie Longsdon
2
Start Again

No match for comfortable winner when third of five in Bangor novice (2m3f, good; first-time tongue-tie) three weeks ago but has now made the frame on both hurdling starts, and should have improvement to come in handicaps.

Jockey: Kielan WoodsTrainer: Fergal O'Brien
3
Bannister

Unable to land a telling blow from off the pace when sixth over C&D six weeks ago but is now 2lb lower than when winning a division of this race on good ground a year ago; must be considered.

Jockey: Charlie HammondTrainer: Nick Kent
4
Little Soiree

Scored at Huntingdon (2m, good) for Chris Gordon in May but left that stable after a disappointing run in June and was last of seven for new stable at Hexham (2m, good) last month; arrives here with a point to prove.

Jockey: William Maggs(5)Trainer: Olly Williams
5
Soldat Forte

Pulled up in two chases this season, after a layoff, and soundly beaten when back over hurdles in first-time cheekpieces three weeks ago; very well handicapped on old form but current ability is hard to gauge.

Jockey: Daire McConville(7)Trainer: Charlie Longsdon
