9:00 Hamilton Tips

It might be worth taking a chance that Mwafaq will stay this trip on a stiff track like Hamilton. He ran well at Ayr over the mile last time, staying on quite well that day. The Fahey yard are in good form, and have jocked up the excellent Tom Kiely-Marshall, whose five-pound claim might just make the difference.

This dependable 4-year-old is a winner over this C&D, having triumphed in a Class 6 handicap here back in May. With a solid 50% lifetime place rate, he shows remarkable consistency at this level of competition, and his liking for good ground makes him a fantastic each-way bet at decent odds.

Three-time winner, including on the penultimate outing at Beverley, but disappointed back there last time out. Each-way chance if bouncing back.

Condotti could be ready to step up into the winners' enclosure for Hugo Palmer and Kevin Stott. Slightly disappointing on reappearance, but not beaten too far and has scope to improve for an in-form stable.

Has been a long time since the last win. Does continue to run the odd creditable race. Has a massive drop in the weights since the last run and could outrun his odds.
