1	3 1st (3) (16/5 -16%) Forever Proud		3.2 16/5(-16%)																															(3) Forever Proud 16/5, Four wins from 18 runs last year. 5/2, won 9-runner handicap at this C&D 11 days ago. This looks tougher up 8 lb but she's clearly in good heart and is therefore impossible to rule out. Won two of her last three, including over C&D 11 days ago; respected up 4lb.
2	7 2nd (7) (3/1 +10%) Boujee Gold		3 3/1(+10%)																															(7) Boujee Gold 3/1, 9/1, improved on recent efforts to win 11-runner handicap at this C&D 17 days ago by ¾ length from Forever Proud (winner since), suited by way race developed. Can make presence felt if able to back that effort up. Did well to overcome a slow start and wide trip over C&D last time; respected up 4lb.
3	1 3rd (1) (7/2 +56%) Ravenglass		3.5 7/2(+56%)																															(1) Ravenglass 7/2, C&D winner in October. Good second of 11 in handicap at this course (7.2f, 25/1) 22 days ago, just failing. Back up in trip and merits consideration nudged up 1 lb. Won over C&D in October and he had a near miss over 7f here last time; big player.
4	9 4th (9) (5/1 -25%) Northern Cracksman		5 5/1(-25%)																															(9) Northern Cracksman 5/1, 7/2, ninth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 18 days ago, not much room. Cheekpieces back on and, granted better luck here, this 4-y-o could have a significant role to play. Had nightmare with traffic issues at Southwell last time and he's an interesting contender.
5th	6 5th (6) (5/1 +23%) Al Shabab		5 5/1(+23%)																															(6) Al Shabab 5/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 7/1, good fifth of 11 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 22 days ago. Up in trip and should make his presence felt, with the caveat that he's likely to again find one or two too good. 0-16 but an eyecatcher over 7f here last time and could be dangerous back up in trip.
6th	12 6th (12) (150/1 -355%) Melsmay		150 150/1(-355%)																															(12) Melsmay 150/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 10 in novice (300/1) at this course (7.2f) 29 days ago. Back up in trip and needs to raise her game considerably now pitched into a handicap. 6yo who struggled in her three qualifying runs and is best watched on handicap debut.
7th	5 7th (5) (50/1 -25%) Doctor Awtaad		50 50/1(-25%)																															(5) Doctor Awtaad 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 10 in handicap (33/1) at this C&D 17 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Beaten 8l or more in all five runs and she needs a transformation.
8th	10 8th (10) (14/1 +13%) Glencalvie		14 14/1(+13%)																															(10) Glencalvie 14/1, 9/1, sixth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford (8f) 19 days ago and she needs to bounce back. On dangerous mark but she's not made an impact in her four runs for current yard.
9th	11 9th (11) (66/1 +0%) Evasive Power		66 66/1(+0%)																															(11) Evasive Power 66/1, Course winner. Ninth of 10 in handicap (66/1) at this course (7.2f). Off 108 days and he's basically opposable. Last win was 16 months ago and he's been out of sorts in both runs for current yard.
10th	2 10th (2) (100/1 -52%) Centurion Dream		100 100/1(-52%)																															(2) Centurion Dream 100/1, 80/1, first run since leaving Richard Hughes when last of 11 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 18 days ago. Back up in trip and he looks set for another struggle. 0-10 and he's been well held in last six runs, including on stable debut last month.

FOREVER PROUD appeals after winning two of her last three starts, the latest of which was a ready success over this C&D 11 days ago. A 4lb higher mark looks fair and with Hector Crouch retaining the ride, another bold showing is expected. Boujee Gold edged out the selection to win over this track and trip in the run up to Christmas, but her overall reliability raises a slight cause for concern this time. Ravenglass and Al Shabab complete the shortlist.

NORTHERN CRACKSMAN remains a maiden following 13 appearances but he has shaped well all three starts for present yard, particularly on his latest run at Southwell where his finishing position only tells half the story (travelling at least as well as anything else in the race but saw no daylight inside the final two furlongs). He is taken to strike, with Ravenglass and Boujee Gold feared most in that order of preference. The in-form Forever Proud also has claims.

Forever Proud is respected but the vote goes to NORTHERN CRACKSMAN, who was repeatedly denied a clear run at Southwell last time.

1	6 1st (6) (4/5 +12%) Treasure Fleet		0.8 4/5(+12%)																															(6) Treasure Fleet 4/5, 800,000 gns breeze-up purchase. Kingman brother to useful 7f-8.5f winner Parent's Prayer and half-brother to winner up to 1¼m Production. Dam 2-y-o 5f-1m winner. Makes obvious appeal for top yard. Nicely bred and a major player for stable which has a fine record with its runners here.
2	9 2nd (9) (80/1 -100%) Pink Petunia		80 80/1(-100%)																															(9) Pink Petunia 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in novice at Chelmsford (7f) 26 days ago, finishing with running left. Up in trip. Should have more to offer at some point. Little to get excited about in three Polytrack novices late last year.
3	7 3rd (7) (50/1 -100%) Vulcan Way		50 50/1(-100%)																															(7) Vulcan Way 50/1, 22/1, no short-term promise when sixth of 7 in C&D maiden on debut 18 days ago, slowly away. 22-1, never figured after a slow break on debut over C&D last month; may need more time.
4	3 4th (3) (9/1 -13%) Crackalackin		9 9/1(-13%)																															(3) Crackalackin 9/1, 40/1, offered something to work on when fourth of 9 in novice at Chelmsford (7f) on debut 26 days ago. This slightly longer trip should suit. Showed promise when fourth on last month's Chelmsford debut; the longer trip should suit.
5th	2 5th (2) (11/8 +45%) Chemical		1.375 11/8(+45%)																															(2) Chemical 11/8, Fair maiden. 8/1, creditable sixth of 10 in nursery at York (1m, soft) in October. Makes tapeta debut. Prominent showing likely but vulnerable to a newcomer with potential. Returns from three months off having been gelded and he's a player in this company.
6th	8 6th (8) (18/1 -157%) Lightning Force		18 18/1(-157%)																															(8) Lightning Force 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Ollie Sangster when fifth of 7 in novice at this course (7f) 18 days ago. Up in trip. Promise in two of her first three starts; ran with credit on stable debut; bit more needed.
7th	5 7th (5) (80/1 -100%) Spec Of Light		80 80/1(-100%)																															(5) Spec Of Light 80/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 12 in maiden at this course (7f, 80/1) 22 days ago. Up in trip. Showed a bit more on the second of two starts last month, but looks one for handicaps.
8th	1 8th (1) (150/1 -50%) Marioento		150 150/1(-50%)																															(1) Marioento 150/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in novice at Southwell (7f, 150/1) 18 days ago, finishing with running left. Up in trip. More one for handicaps. Modest form in two 7f novices last month; likely to struggle against his younger rivals.
9th	4 9th (4) (125/1 -25%) King At The Races		125 125/1(-25%)																															(4) King At The Races 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in novice (200/1) at Southwell (6f) 19 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Well held in two 6f Tapeta novices last month; hard to recommend.

TREASURE FLEET, an 800,000gns breeze-up purchase for Godolphin as a two-year-old, is a most attractive proposition on paper and this son of Kingman appears to have been found an ideal starting point to get his career off to a flyer. Chemical sets a reasonable standard and is another must for a betting check on his first run since being gelded. Lightning Force and Crackalackin are others with each-way appeal.

Expensive breeze-up buy TREASURE FLEET won't need to be anything special to see off this opposition, best of whom may be Andrew Balding's Chemical. Crackalackin should benefit from the step up in trip and looks best of the remainder.

The newcomer TREASURE FLEET makes plenty of appeal. He is nicely bred and the stable has a fine record with its runners here.

1	1 1st (1) (7/2 +0%) Autumn Angel		3.5 7/2(+0%)																															(1) Autumn Angel 7/2, Modest mare. C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Respectable third of 12 in minor event at Southwell (6.1f, 2/1) 4 days ago. May again find one or two too good on these terms. Won Class 6 C&D handicap (13-8 favourite) prior to third at Southwell (6f); key player.
2	5 2nd (5) (3/1 +50%) Jesse Luc		3 3/1(+50%)																															(5) Jesse Luc 3/1, Modest gelding. 7/2, respectable fourth of 12 in minor event at Southwell (6.1f) 4 days ago. One or two of these are more appealing for win purposes. Maiden (0-10); just a neck behind Autumn Angel when 4th over 6f at Southwell last week..
3	4 3rd (4) (18/1 -80%) Global Effort		18 18/1(-80%)																															(4) Global Effort 18/1, Modest gelding. C&D winner in November. Creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at this course (7.2f, 17/2) 52 days ago. Place possibilities. All out when scoring over C&D in November; returns from a 52-day absence; others preferred.
4	8 4th (8) (10/1 +38%) Mumcat		10 10/1(+38%)																															(8) Mumcat 10/1, Modest mare. C&D winner. Last of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 33/1) 26 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and she could have a part to play if able to bounce back. C&D winner (7-2) last April; raced freely both starts (Newcastle) since a summer break..
5th	9 5th (9) (14/1 +58%) Noble Captain		14 14/1(+58%)																															(9) Noble Captain 14/1, Poor gelding. Below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 20/1) 21 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Uphill task. Dual Newcastle scorer (6f); last two runs were disappointing; venue change worth exploring.
6th	6 6th (6) (16/1 -14%) May Remain		16 16/1(-14%)																															(6) May Remain 16/1, Modest gelding. C&D winner. Eighth of 12 in minor event at Southwell (6.1f, 11/1) 4 days ago. Opposable on the back of that low-key display. Not far behind Bankrupt over C&D (fourth) on penultimate start; low-key at Southwell since.
7th	3 7th (3) (7/2 +13%) Bankrupt		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(3) Bankrupt 7/2, Modest gelding. Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Second of 11 in handicap (9/1) at this C&D 18 days ago. Should make a bold bid to go one better. Split a pair of subsequent winners over C&D 18 days ago; obvious chance on these terms..
8th	2 8th (2) (80/1 -220%) Banana		80 80/1(-220%)																															(2) Banana 80/1, Modest mare. Remains a maiden after 40 Flat runs. Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and she again looks vulnerable for win purposes. Longstanding maiden (0-40); weakening sixth over C&D (12-1) last week; not a forlorn hope..
9th	11 9th (11) (14/1 +0%) Savalas		14 14/1(+0%)																															(11) Savalas 14/1, Modest gelding. C&D winner in November. 5¼ lengths ninth of 11 to Autumn Angel in handicap (33/1) at this C&D 8 days ago. Enjoys a handy pull at the weights with that rival now and he's not without hope. Narrow C&D apprentice win (12-1) on penultimate start; well behind Autumn Angel latest..
10th	7 10th (7) (18/1 +45%) Midnight Flame		18 18/1(+45%)																															(7) Midnight Flame 18/1, Poor mare. Remains a maiden after 30 Flat runs. Fifth of 8 in handicap (28/1) at this course (7.2f) 3 days ago. Readily passed over. Longstanding maiden (0-30); twice placed at Bath (5.5f) in the autumn; no joy back on AW..
11th	10 11th (10) (18/1 +28%) Sacred Melody		18 18/1(+28%)																															(10) Sacred Melody 18/1, Modest filly. Creditable 3½ lengths fifth of 11 to Autumn Angel in handicap (50/1) at this C&D 8 days ago. Likely to come up short once more. Ten-race maiden, well down the weights; needs to raise her game..
12th	12 12th (12) (18/1 -29%) Ustath		18 18/1(-29%)																															(12) Ustath 18/1, Modest gelding. C&D winner last summer. 12/1, below form sixth of 12 in minor event at Southwell (6.1f) 4 days ago. Minor place money is probably the best his connections can hope for. Struggled since C&D win (favourite) last July; faded over 6f at Southwell last week.

Autumn Angel has been enjoying a decent spell of form recently and she must be respected having made the frame in a similar contest at Southwell on Friday. Stall 12 is far from ideal, though, and the vote goes to BANKRUPT. Chelsea Banham's gelding posted a much-improved performance over C&D last month, finishing second, and he must hold every chance on these terms now eased into classified company. Others to note include Mumcat and Jesse Luc.

The form of BANKRUPT's latest second in a C&D handicap has been boosted since (the winner and third both won next time) and he will may well go one better if in a similar mood. Savalas was only ninth behind Autumn Angel here last time but was successful on his penultimate start and, armed with a handy pull at the weights, is taken to reverse those placings with Tony Carroll's charge and emerge as the main danger.

A clear preference is for BANKRUPT (nap), who split a pair of subsequent winners over C&D 18 days ago. Autumn Angel is next best.

2	3 2nd (3) (33/1 +0%) Balmy Breese		33 33/1(+0%)																															(3) Balmy Breese 33/1, Remains a maiden after 17 starts. 33/1, last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 16 days ago. Others are preferred again. Hasn't beaten many in his last few starts and now 0-17; best to look elsewhere.
3	8 3rd (8) (14/1 +44%) Miss Calculation		14 14/1(+44%)																															(8) Miss Calculation 14/1, Course winner. 20/1, below form tenth of 16 in handicap at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) in September. Four wins include one here, but four-month absence and wide draw are negatives.
4	10 4th (10) (9/2 -29%) Red Walls		4.5 9/2(-29%)																															(10) Red Walls 9/2, Four-time course winner. Three wins from 21 runs last year. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 14/1, good second of 11 in C&D handicap 8 days ago. Enters calculations if the outside stall isn't too big an inconvenience. All nine wins on AW, including four here; has a little bit to find, but still considered.
5th	6 5th (6) (14/1 -133%) Fast Flo		14 14/1(-133%)																															(6) Fast Flo 14/1, Long-standing maiden. Third of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, 66/1) 47 days ago, doing too much too soon. Eyeshields on first time. In the frame on a few occasions but is now a 28-race maiden; new headgear combination.
6th	5 6th (5) (14/1 +44%) Chiedozie		14 14/1(+44%)																															(5) Chiedozie 14/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat starts. Seventh of 9 in handicap (50/1) at this course (5f) 29 days ago, merely closing up late. Below form of late and now 0-19; down in grade but others are more solid.
7th	9 7th (9) (10/3 +67%) Miss Moonshine		3.333333 10/3(+67%)																															(9) Miss Moonshine 10/3, Possibly still needed the run on second outing back from a break when eighth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 16 days ago, unable to sustain effort. More than capable in this grade if back to anywhere near her best. Favoured by these terms and drops to this level for the first time; considered.
8th	7 8th (7) (40/1 -150%) Lil Wade		40 40/1(-150%)																															(7) Lil Wade 40/1, Remains a maiden after 21 starts. 20/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 16 days ago. Visored first time. All three placed efforts have come here but modest of late and now 0-21; visor on.
9th	4 9th (4) (12/1 +14%) Batal Dandy		12 12/1(+14%)																															(4) Batal Dandy 12/1, Latest win at Kempton in October. Ninth of 12 in classified event at Southwell (1f, 20/1) 4 days ago. Visored for first time here. Bounce back needed. Below form lately and the draw hasn't been kind; a visor goes on.
10th	1 10th (1) (10/1 -25%) Admirable Lad		10 10/1(-25%)																															(1) Admirable Lad 10/1, C&D winner. 22/1, sixth of 9 in classified event at Leicester (6f, good to soft) in June. Off since but did well in similar races last winter. Three wins here; has a bit to find but his liking for this track counts for something.
11th	11 11th (11) (8/1 -33%) Revolucion		8 8/1(-33%)																															(11) Revolucion 8/1, C&D winner. One win from 39 runs. 20/1, fourth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 16 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. 1-39, though the win came over C&D; these terms leave him with a bit to find.

Fast Flo outran odds of 33/1 to hit the frame at Lingfield in November and is interesting now down in grade, but another swift exit from the stalls could see RED WALLS negotiate a tricky draw. Lisa Williamson's charge was only picked up late on when attempting to make all over C&D in handicap company recently, and this ease in class presents him with a good opportunity to go one better. Back Tomorrow caught the eye with a fast-finishing fourth last time out and she could go close if producing a similar level of performance.

Although the outside stall isn't ideal RED WALLS knows where the winning post is here and is given a chance to build on his back-to-form second here last week. Miss Moonshine should be edging back towards peak fitness after 2 comeback runs last month and has a bit of class for this grade on her form from early last year. Back Tomorrow ran well in a C&D handicap last week and also makes the shortlist.

The vote goes to MISS MOONSHINE who is favoured by the weights and drops to this level for the first time.

1	2 1st (2) (3/1 -33%) Tiger Crusade		3 3/1(-33%)																															(2) Tiger Crusade 3/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 5/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 20 days ago, nearest finish. Solid each-way chance. 13lb lower than for his last AW success; capable of making his presence felt.
2	5 2nd (5) (18/1 -157%) Pure Angel		18 18/1(-157%)																															(5) Pure Angel 18/1, Course winner. 17/2, fifth of 7 in handicap at this course (5.1f) 11 days ago. Has slipped to a dangerous mark and she's not without hope. Course winner (5f) who ran with credit here 11 days ago, but 5f may suit her better.
3	8 3rd (8) (10/1 +60%) Mojomaker		10 10/1(+60%)																															(8) Mojomaker 10/1, One win from 26 Flat runs.

Found 7f stretching him at Lingfield last time, but his record of 1-26 is hard to ignore.
4	6 4th (6) (11/2 +45%) Lady Dreamer		5.5 11/2(+45%)																															(6) Lady Dreamer 11/2, C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year. Respectable third of 12 in handicap at this C&D (20/1) 24 days ago, doing too much too soon. Major claims. Dual C&D winner who ran well from the widest draw here last time; could go well again.
5th	4 5th (4) (5/2 +58%) Lir Speciale		2.5 5/2(+58%)																															(4) Lir Speciale 5/2, 11/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm). Off 122 days and hopes pinned on the first-time visor sparking a return to form. Continues to edge down the weights and goes well fresh, but he may prefer 7f now; visor on.
6th	3 6th (3) (14/1 -180%) Power Over Me		14 14/1(-180%)																															(3) Power Over Me 14/1, C&D winner. Sixth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 36 days ago. Down another 3 lb and he's dangerous to discount. Dual C&D winner; ran okay on second start back from a mammoth absence, but enough to prove.
7th	9 7th (9) (33/1 -32%) That's For Sure		33 33/1(-32%)																															(9) That's For Sure 33/1, 40/1 and visored for 1st time, tenth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 10 days ago. Connections now roll the dice with blinkers and he has something to prove at present. Lightly raced and poor since winning at Carlisle in the summer of 2023; blinkers on.
8th	7 8th (7) (9/2 -13%) Monsieur Kodi		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(7) Monsieur Kodi 9/2, Latest win at Chelmsford in November. 4/1, respectable second of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 16 days ago. Likely to be on the premises once again. Best of the rest behind a resurgent rival at Lingfield last time; needs a bit more.
9th	1 9th (1) (16/1 -45%) Just A Spark		16 16/1(-45%)																															(1) Just A Spark 16/1, C&D winner. Seven wins from 21 Flat runs. Three wins from 8 runs last year. 28/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 20 days ago. Eased 2 lb since and she will be a threat if on-song. 6-13 on AW and back down in grade; worth a second look back at this level.

TIGER CRUSADE hasn't tasted success in over a year, but he ran extremely well to finish third in a valuable sprint series qualifier at Kempton last month. David Simcock's charge is able to compete from an unchanged mark here, and an ease in grade ought to aid his chance too. Monsieur Kodi was no match for an impressive winner at Lingfield prior to Christmas but he should go well today, along with Lady Dreamer and Just A Spark, who finished a well-held ninth behind the selection in that Kempton event.

The vote goes to LADY DREAMER, who hit the target three times last year and she did well all things considered when third over C&D on her latest start. Monsieur Kodi put in another good shift when finding just one too good at Lingfield recently and he is second choice ahead of Tiger Crusade. Cases can also be made for the likes of Just A Spark, Power Over Me and Pure Angel.

It may be worth siding with TIGER CRUSADE who has dropped to a favourable mark and races down at Class 4 on the AW for the first time.

1	8 1st (8) (6/1 -243%) Alfheim		6 6/1(-243%)																															(8) Alfheim 6/1, Yet another to thrive for the switch to George Boughey and on a course hat-trick after a pair of wins last month, latterly by a neck from the reopposing Dark Mystery. Taken to defy the handicapper again. Bids for a hat-trick after two narrow wins here; likely to run another big race.
2	6 2nd (6) (7/2 +0%) Dark Mystery		3.5 7/2(+0%)																															(6) Dark Mystery 7/2, One win from 24 Flat runs but runner-up 3 times on AW in 2024, going down by only a neck to the reopposing Alfheim over C&D last month. Ought to be in the mix again. 1-25; beaten a neck by Alfheim over C&D last month; should go well again.
3	7 3rd (7) (9/2 +72%) Blue Sky Boy		4.5 9/2(+72%)																															(7) Blue Sky Boy 9/2, Fair form on debut but has yet to build on it, including well held on 1¼m Newcastle handicap debut last month. The significantly longer trip needs to spark improvement. 0-4; steps up another half-mile in trip and has plenty to prove.
4	5 4th (5) (9/2 +75%) Hill Station		4.5 9/2(+75%)																															(5) Hill Station 9/2, Course winner. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (1½m) 34 days ago. Hood on first time. Bounce back needed. 2lb below last winning mark; still to prove stamina, but one for the shortlist; hood on.
5th	1 5th (1) (20/1 -25%) Le Rouge Chinois		20 20/1(-25%)																															(1) Le Rouge Chinois 20/1, 11/1, eighth of 9 over C&D 11 days ago. Others are preferred again. 2lb below last winning mark; met interference last time; capable of playing a part.
6th	2 6th (2) (7/2 +30%) Green Team		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(2) Green Team 7/2, Has drawn a blank since winning an Ayr novice back in autumn 2021 but he has finished second over C&D on his last 2 outings, going down by only a nose 11 days ago. Has to enter the reckoning. 0-27 since winning his second start as a 2yo, but looked unlucky over C&D 11 days ago.
7th	4 7th (4) (9/1 -13%) Lawmans Blis		9 9/1(-13%)																															(4) Lawmans Blis 9/1, Three-time C&D winner, the latest when last seen in April. Much depends on whether he's fully primed after 8 months off. Record over C&D reads 31131; off 253 days but has won after a six-month absence; respected.
8th	3 8th (3) (14/1 -17%) It's A Love Thing		14 14/1(-17%)																															(3) It's A Love Thing 14/1, Course winner. 33/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Southwell (11f) 19 days ago. Up in trip. Others arrive with more pressing claims. Not at his best of late and he has never attempted this far on the Flat before.

ALFHEIM has won two of her four starts since joining George Boughey and, still unexposed over this trip, looks a solid option bidding to supplement last month's C&D success off just 2lb higher. The returning Lawmans Blis, who is already a three-time track-and-trip winner, goes well when fresh and rates a key player despite needing another personal best. The reliable Green Team has been placed in five of his last six starts and is also dangerous to rule out.

ALFHEIM could have even more to come for the Boughey yard and is taken to confirm recent C&D superiority over Dark Mystery. Green Team looks best of the rest.

It may be worth chancing LAWMANS BLIS. He hasn't been seen in 253 days, but has won fresh and his record over C&D reads 31131.

Hood back on and bold showing is on the cards. Maiden who's run some good races over C&D, including last time out; can be involved.
2	5 2nd (5) (1/1 +56%) Pessoa		1 1/1(+56%)																															(5) Pessoa 1/1, 3-time C&D winner. Good fourth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (6/4) 12 days ago, nearest finish. Player. Two C&D wins last winter, the latest off 8lb higher; running into form again; respected.
3	9 3rd (9) (18/1 +45%) Porfin		18 18/1(+45%)																															(9) Porfin 18/1, C&D winner. 20/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Catterick (6f, heavy) 70 days ago. Back up in trip with more required. Out of sorts but well treated and back over C&D for first time since July win.

5th	11 5th (11) (9/1 +36%) Perfect Curves		9 9/1(+36%)																															(11) Perfect Curves 9/1, Below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f, 14/1) 55 days ago. Significantly back down in trip on her first run for yard after leaving Gordon Elliott. Cheekpieces back on with more needed. Ordinary form for G Elliott at up to 1m2f; no strong credentials for new yard.
6th	10 6th (10) (28/1 +44%) The Toff		28 28/1(+44%)																															(10) The Toff 28/1, One win from 26 Flat runs. 80/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago. Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Minor form for this yard; glimmer of a revival over C&D latest; more needed.
7th	1 7th (1) (28/1 +30%) Anamika		28 28/1(+30%)																															(1) Anamika 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 80/1, badly hampered last 1f when ninth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago. Not rtuled out. Showed promise in novice company; hampered over C&D last time; not one to give up on.
8th	3 8th (3) (15/2 +70%) Artificer		7.5 15/2(+70%)																															(3) Artificer 15/2, 66/1, creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 19 days ago, slowly away. Needs considering. Maiden; unproven on Tapeta; ran well over 1m on Polytrack latest; drop to 7f can suit.
9th	8 9th (8) (20/1 -43%) Too Much Too Young		20 20/1(-43%)																															(8) Too Much Too Young 20/1, Winner at Catterick in August. Only fourth of 6 in handicap (15/2) at Catterick (5f, heavy) 70 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Others more persuasive. Winning yard debut on turf (7f); more to prove on handicap form since; back from break.
10th	7 10th (7) (66/1 -65%) Speed Court		66 66/1(-65%)																															(7) Speed Court 66/1, Eighth of 10 in handicap (150/1) at this course (9.5f) 22 days ago. Down in trip with work to do. Beaten hefty distances at 1m-1m4f for this yard; worth another go at 7f but work to do.

BUNGLE BAY secured his fifth course success with a tenacious effort over this trip last month and, with this looking no deeper, has a serious chance of following up off just 2lb higher. Heavenly Fire (third) and Pessoa (fourth), who are closely matched based on their encounter here on Boxing Day, can fight it out for the places. The former had a 7lb claimer in the saddle on that occasion and may struggle to uphold the form on the revised terms.

HEAVENLY FIRE wasn't seen to best effect despite coming in third over C&D recently so is fancied to capitalise on a handy-looking mark and gain her breakthorugh victory. Both Pessoa (second choice) and Bungle Bay are multiple C&D scorers and rate major threats. Anamika completes the shortlist.

In an open race, well-treated PESSOA can recoup Boxing Day losses over C&D at the chief expense of Bungle Bay.

1	7 1st (7) (4/5 +36%) Ash Wednesday		0.8 4/5(+36%)																															(7) Ash Wednesday 4/5, 5/4, very good second of 12 in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago, finishing strongly. Expected to be bang there. Unlucky loser over C&D on Boxing Day; this looks an ideal opportunity to make amends..
2	2 2nd (2) (16/5 +20%) Bossy Parker		3.2 16/5(+20%)																															(2) Bossy Parker 16/5, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 11/2, eighth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 22 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. In the mix over C&D (fourth) on penultimate start; 6lb below last winning mark; key player.
3	5 3rd (5) (9/1 +59%) Heerathetrack		9 9/1(+59%)																															(5) Heerathetrack 9/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2024. 9/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at this C&D 22 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Can make presence felt if back on his A-game. Won twice over 7f - Chelmsford & Kempton - around this time last year; unconvincing lately.
4	9 4th (9) (25/1 +24%) Quick Away		25 25/1(+24%)																															(9) Quick Away 25/1, 20/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 33 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time with more needed. Maiden (0-14); nothing positive since last March (1m, Southwell); a tongue-tie is fitted..
5th	6 5th (6) (11/1 +0%) Concert Boy		11 11/1(+0%)																															(6) Concert Boy 11/1, One win from 38 Flat runs. Thirty three runs since last win in 2023. 11/1, below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 10 days ago. Visor back on. Others more persuasive. Poor strike-rate (1-38); competes from career-low mark on second Wolverhampton appearance..
6th	1 6th (1) (17/2 -55%) Silky Robin		8.5 17/2(-55%)																															(1) Silky Robin 17/2, Hooded for 1st time, first run since leaving Paul Midgley when creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 15/2) 19 days ago. In the mix. Step back in positive direction when fourth of 13 at Chelmsford (6f; on stable debut); 7f?.
7th	4 7th (4) (100/1 -257%) Lady Ava		100 100/1(-257%)																															(4) Lady Ava 100/1, 80/1, first run since leaving Ed Dunlop when last of 9 in handicap at this C&D 24 days ago, doing too much too soon. Hood on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter. Nothing positive to take from recent C&D stable debut; risky in first-time hood..

Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/2, below form sixth of 11 in minor event at this course (8.6f). Off 11 months. 8-89; beaten a neck over 8.5f here last January; returns from a 332-day absence..

ASH WEDNESDAY went agonisingly close to justifying favouritism when he was beaten by a just nose after a troubled run over this C&D on Boxing Day. Nudged up a 1lb, compensation could be at hand if he negotiates a clear run this time. Heerathetrack and Bossy Parker look the pick of the remainder, with the former suggested as the chief threat to the selection off a competitive mark. Silky Robin completes the shortlist with the hood retained after an improved latest effort.

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and ASH WEDNESDAY looks the way to go on the back of his very good recent C&D second. Silky Robin made a good start for his new yard when fourth at Chelmsford City recently and is feared most ahead of C&D winner Kenstone.

In-form ASH WEDNESDAY was seemingly an unlucky loser over C&D on Boxing Day. This rates as a suitable opportunity to make swift amends.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
