Timeform says: Already a four-time winner this year who arrives on back of 4-runner handicap success over C&D 7 days ago, suited by way race developed. Not taken lightly under a 5 lb penalty. Star Rating

Timeform says: Winless since 2019, and only tenth of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Back down in trip with others preferred. Star Rating

Timeform says: C&D winner this summer who has also bagged three more successes. Creditable seventh of 16 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to firm) 5 days ago, so he can't be discounted. Star Rating

Timeform says: C&D winner who got back to winning ways in 5f handicap at Ayr 11 days ago. Has to be taken seriously despite 5 lb rise. Star Rating

Timeform says: It's now twenty six runs since last win in 2019, and last of 15 to Thrilla In Manila in handicap at Ayr (5f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere. Star Rating

ATR Verdict

GLOBAL HUMOR won with plenty in hand last time out over C&D and he looks poised to go close yet again. The six-year-old capitalised in calmer waters on that occasion and a 5lb penalty may not be enough to stop him in his tracks. Thrilla In Manila arrives in good form and rates the most immediate danger, while Shesadabber is another to consider.

Top Tip: GLOBAL HUMOR (1)
Watch out for: THRILLA IN MANILA (4)

THRILLA IN MANILA took his form up a notch when scoring at Ayr last week so this C&D winner is fancied to defy a 5 lb rise in the weights at the chief expense of Glorious Rio, who can also boast a C&D victory and rates a serious threat. Global Humor is another with winning form here who warrants plenty of respect under his 5 lb penalty.
