Verdict
Ripoll hasn't won on turf so far but hasn't been doing a lot wrong lately, including over course and distance 10 days ago – he should be thereabouts again. Ocean Eleven still hasn't managed a victory of any description but that should be rectified soon judged on recent efforts. Chelmsford scorer Possible Future is another for the short-list, despite top weight, and the maiden Sehayli could be well treated on his handicap debut. LOLWAH overcame trouble in-running to get off the mark at Windsor in June. Connections have been patient with this daughter of Pivotal and she could be set for a profitable autumn, though some rain wouldn't have come amiss. Irish Optimism has found life tough since winning his maiden April and may again find a couple too good.
