Tregaro only found one too good over course and distance last month but has never won off a mark this high. Amuse Me looks to be back in the handicapper's grip while stablemate Less Time was pulled up at Huntingdon on Monday having suffered the same fate behind BALLYBOGEY here previously when a warm favourite. The latter has been beaten since at Uttoxeter but did finish ahead of Tregaro that day so is probably the one to beat as Milgen Bay ran poorly on his return from a summer break and Quito Du Tresor is likely to need this.
Quito Du Tresor (FR) 14-1 (11-12) Prominent, ridden before 2 out, one pace and just held on for 3rd place close home, 3rd of 6, 23 1/2l behind Mister First (11-8) at Perth 2m 4f hcp (4) sft in May.
Milgen Bay 12-1 (11-8) Held up in rear, not fluent 4th or 7th, struggling 8th, behind next, pulled up before 11th, at Uttoxeter 3m hcp (4) sft in Jul.
Less Time (IRE) 6-4fav (11-9) Led, not fluent 2nd, headed after 3 out (usual 4 out), soon weakened, pulled up before 2 out (usual 3 out), at Southwell 2m 4f hcp (4) gd in Jun.
Amuse Me 16-1 (11-10) Held up behind, mistake 2nd, ridden to chase leaders 3 out, went 3rd after next, kept on same pace, never troubled front pair, 3rd of 11, 14l behind Faustina Pius (11-10) at Stratford 2m 7f hcp (4) gd in Aug.
Tregaro (FR) 9-1 (10-7) Held up in last pair, closer in 3rd after 4 out, 2nd before 2 out, ridden and no impression before last, 2nd of 7, 3 1/4l behind Ladfromhighworth (11-6) at Southwell 2m 4f hcp (4) gf in Aug.
