Verdict
EDUCATOR has won his last 2 starts and, while he had to work harder under a penalty at Newmarket 29 days ago, he's proven at this longer trip and could bring up the hat-trick. Urban Warrior got off the mark at Yarmouth 30 days ago with first-time cheekpieces doing the trick and could be hard to peg back if getting his way out in front, while Must Believe has a solid all-weather record.

VerdictTeamed up to good effect with Billy Loughnane last 2 starts, winning at Yarmouth in July and Newmarket over 1½m 29 days ago. Had to work harder under a penalty for latter but eventually prevailing. Back up in trip and only 1 lb higher so set to go well again returned to all-weather.

VerdictCompleted a hat-trick in May-June, including over C&D, but was only ninth of 13 at York 42 days ago in a higher grade. Should find this more to his liking back on all-weather and eased in grade.

VerdictImproved when getting off the mark at Salisbury over 1¾m on handicap debut 14 days ago. Now up in grade and trip returned to all-weather but is less-exposed than most of these.- 8. Urban WarriorJ: Silvestre De SousaT: Stuart WilliamsF: 096-44331

VerdictKnocked on the door before getting off the mark at Yarmouth 30 days ago, making all in a 1¾m handicap in first-time cheekpieces. 3 lb higher mark to contend with over a new trip in a higher grade, but he may be able to get his way out in front once more so could be hard to pass.

VerdictWon over hurdles at Bangor in June but only third of 4 over 1½m at Newbury in a handicap 43 days ago on first Flat start for this yard, though the muddling nature of that race was a possible excuse. Stamina to prove up in trip and back on all-weather.- 3. Must BelieveJ: Jack DaceT: George BakerF: 412-45183

VerdictWon a 3-runner handicap for Brian Ellison at Pontefract over 17f 30 days ago in first-time cheekpieces, landing the odds in pretty unimpressive fashion. Cheekpieces removed and up 3 lb starting out for a new stable, but is a proven stayer.

VerdictWon 3 times on turf last year but not fired this time around, though wasn't seen to best effect when down field at this track last time and is well treated if finding top form over C&D she's previously scored at.- Unnamed Favourite
