Crayford Race Fields - 22nd Nov 2023

GLENCOE (trap 3) looks sure to be an active player when it comes to the business end of the race and she is fancied to rule the roost. A swift getaway by Porcupine Sky (trap 5) would mean he becomes the chief threat. You'll need a hammer to knock Moaning Agassi (trap 1) out of the frame.

Given her season date, the likelihood is that QUIVERS SUNSHINE (trap 4) will get quicker now and she'd not need to find much to rule the roost against these. The smell of success is still in the air so far as chief danger Airport Star (trap 1) is concerned. Beepers Clever (trap 5) needs to make the most of the drop in status.

DEBOSSMAN (trap 3) will look to set the early fractions against these and he could maintain a strong enough gallop to hold them all at bay. Moaning Daddy (trap 1) won the gold medal even though things didn't go to plan latest so he is feared. Tommys Duchess (trap 6) is still a bit of an unknown quantity here, so is worth keeping an eye on.

On all known form, RUFFIAN BLITZ (trap 5) is the one most likely to be bossing these when it matters and she will certainly be floating a few boats here. Mellie Malou (trap 2) was not out of place on the winner's podium recently and will battle hard. Capel Frantastic (trap 1) has the speed to be in the bunny hunt so merits respect.

On all known recent form, CRONODY ADA (trap 1) is the one they all have to beat. With a clear run, she will take plenty of holding at crunch time. State Secret (trap 3) is likely to be hungry for more following his recent win and is a live danger. Athletic Rooster (trap 5) needs to beat the postman to work to be seen to best effect.

The recent success of COOLEMORE PENNY (trap 2) will have done her confidence the world of good and she can win out in this contest too. Snowdon Stella (trap 4) is one of the leading players and can give the selection most to do. With a ping break, China Chas (trap 3) would have a chance of making the frame.

MOANING DUCHESS (trap 2) is often one of the focal points in the ring and today should be no exception as a clear run may be all that's required in this. Celestial Girl (trap 3) is suggested as the main threat, especially if getting first jump on the selection. Claires Grace (trap 4) makes a quick reappearance and isn't without hope.

EPIC PRINCESS (trap 2) made it to the top of the shortlist and plenty can be expected. Indeed, if enjoying the run of things, she can oblige. The layers are often inundated with support for Kuda Honey (trap 1) and she looks a big runner. Meridian Zoey (trap 6) has been kept ticking over quite nicely and has a squeak.

The gravy train could well stop with SLOWLANE SANDY (trap 6) in this contest as she certainly looks on the right track to give these rivals the runaround. It could be wise to bank on some improvement from the post season Nissels Folly (trap 4). The progress of Mustang Trent (trap 1) continues to be monitored.

SLEEPY SEANIE (trap 6) has major claims for sure and he won't go unsupported. Indeed, if clearing the first turn without mishap, this should be all one-way traffic. Prime Reaction (trap 3) will be up for the challenge and can give the selection plenty to think about. The recent win of Skeard Enda (trap 2) was encouraging and she has a shout.

It's hard to ignore the chances of MILLABBEY AMY (trap 5). She's coming right out of season and should only need a clear to get the job done. Westway Tina (trap 6) should be included as she looks certain to play a part in the finish. Swift Aim (trap 1) could be ready to pump up the volume after some good rehearsals.

COOLEMORE NORTH (trap 6) is a speedy individual who wouldn't be the strongest in a finish but could have this in the bag before fatigue sets in. Cronody Eve (trap 4) will be a big danger if getting the nominal good fortune required. Moaning Empress (trap 3) may find this easier but could still come up short.
