Verdict
LUNAR FORCE was correctly demoted after causing interference here last week but that confirms she's in good nick and able to race from 3 lb lower, she can break her maiden tag. Gypsy Nation did it well over C&D last month and is feared most, ahead of Toptime.

VerdictHas 4 course wins including 3 over C&D and ran creditably when third of 5 in a 6f handicap here 42 days ago, despite being hampered leaving stalls. Has quirks but goes well at this track.- 3. ToptimeJ: Darragh KeenanT: Roy BowringF: 415-66648

VerdictShaped better than result when fourth of 8 in 6f handicap here in June. Failed to build on that when eighth of 9 in handicap at Doncaster (9/1) 28 days ago but return to 5f today could show him in a better light.

VerdictC&D winner back in May but not quite in the same form since, fifth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (11/2) 22 days ago, making headway under pressure before weakening late on. Returns to the scene of last success and just 2 lb above that mark.- 7. Gypsy NationJ: Cieren FallonT: Michael ApplebyF: 46405401

VerdictWon a 6-runner C&D handicap 42 days ago, finishing strongly after making headway from 2f out despite being awkward leaving stalls. Returns to a track that clearly suits and 7 lb rise won't prevent a bold follow-up bid.

VerdictDown in the weights and offered something to work on when third of 6 to Gypsy Nation over C&D 42 days ago. Should be a factor at this level.
