Verdict

BUCKLAND BELLE hasn't put a foot wrong this season and came a long way clear with one that has already followed up at Windsor last week, so makes plenty of appeal again. Course specialist Blue Hero and Galactic Glow head up the dangers.

10	Consistent in handicaps, opening her account at Windsor in May and doubling her tally at Leicester (1m, good to firm) under Tom Marquand in July. Pulled a long way clear with one that has already followed up back at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last week and she makes plenty of appeal again. 1st Pick 10 Buckland Belle Jockey: Tom Marquand Trainer: Ollie Sangster J: Tom Marquand T: Ollie Sangster	100	-	-	-	25%	3/1

4	Veteran who overcame a very slow start to notch an eleventh course success in a 5-runner handicap here (1¼m, firm) 33 days ago. This looks more competitive but he should give another good account from just 2 lb higher. 2nd Pick 4 Blue Hero (Can) Jockey: Joe Leavy Trainer: Adrian Wintle J: Joe Leavy T: Adrian Wintle	93	-	-	-	19%	9/2

9	Twelve runs since last win in 2025 but has finished runner-up 4 times this summer, including going down by only a neck over at Chepstow in July. Not best placed on the far wing when last seen there 24 days ago and it'd be no surprise if he were to bounce back at a track where he has a decent record. 3rd Pick 9 Galactic Glow (Ire) Jockey: Taylor Fisher Trainer: Joe Tickle J: Taylor Fisher T: Joe Tickle	95	-	-	-	8%	12/1
