Hard to find one of these not going backwards but BIRDOLINI fits the bill. She's improved in all three starts on turf this year and Alan King's Polytrack maiden winner may come out best back on this surface. The Guru Of Gloom scored at Lingfield on his penultimate start and could figure, but Little Black Book looks a shade high in the weights though should make the frame again. Munaaseb, May's Boy and Escape To Glory have all been struggling off higher marks after winning earlier this season, however, while the joint top weights Remotelinx and Majestic Dream arrive out of sorts.
Remotelinx (IRE) 16-1 (8-8) Tracked leaders, lost place halfway, weakened over 1f out, 8th of 9, 10l behind Colonel Mak (9-6) at Ffos Las 6f hcp 0-100 (2) gd in Aug.

Munaaseb 7-2 (9-5) Held up towards rear, headway towards inside over 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, never going pace to threaten, 6th of 10, 7l behind Capone (9-12) at Kempton 6f hcp 0-85 (4) pol in Aug.
May's Boy 15-2 (9-7) Held up and always in rear, never a factor, last of 9, 13l behind Katmai River (8-12) at Epsom Downs 7f hcp 0-75 (5) gs in Aug.
Escape To Glory (USA) Evensfav (9-7) Led 1f, tracked winner, effort and every chance over 1f out, soon ridden, no extra inside final furlong, 3rd of 6, 2 1/4l behind Colorado Gold (9-2) at Lingfield 6f hcp 0-80 (4) pol in Aug.
