1st (6)  (13/2 +0%)Believe Jack |
13/2(+0%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Believe Jack 13/2, Back to winning ways in first-time cheekpieces when leading late on in Market Rasen selling handicap (16.5f) on Boxing Day. However, not gone with same zest either outing since, struggling from 4 out at Hereford (19.6f) 10 days ago. Blinkers/tongue tie go on back down in class. Boxing Day win suggests he may benefit from the change of headgear. |
|||
2nd (4)  (7/4 +36%)Foveros |
7/4(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Foveros 7/4, Mixed record for Willie Mullins but seems to be finding his feet for new yard, second of 5 dropped to claiming company at Leicester (15.5f) 5 weeks ago. A repeat here gives him a good shout. Best effort for new yard when runner-up in Leicester claimer latest; commands respect. |
|||
3rd (3)  (11/8 +15%)Baron De Midleton |
11/8(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Baron De Midleton 11/8, Useful sort at best who capitalised on handicapper's mercy at Market Rasen (20.6f) in January. Dispelled lesser effort at Leicester when third at Newcastle (16.8f) 11 days ago and big shout on these terms back down in grade. Beaten favourite in similar event two starts ago but has good chance if running to form. |
|||
4th (5)  (17/2 +47%)Coup De Gold |
17/2(+47%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Coup De Gold 17/2, Snapped losing run at Sedgefield (16.8f) in January and ran creditably turned out quickly when fourth back at that venue (19.8f) last month. However, no easy task on these terms dropped into claiming company down in trip. Has a lot to find on ratings but earns points for arriving in good form. |
|||
5th (7)  (18/1 +45%)Noble Annys |
18/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Noble Annys 18/1, Showed ability in bumpers in Ireland. Barely modest form over hurdles for current yard, failing to build on promise of her penultimate run at Musselburgh when well held in big-field handicap at Doncaster (16.6f) 38 days ago. Others preferred eased in class. Inconsistent maiden who faces a difficult task on these terms. |
|||
6th (2)  (28/1 -133%)Moarins Moarnin |
28/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Moarins Moarnin 28/1, Showed ability amidst inexperience when third in a Uttoxeter maiden (15.8f) in October. Shaped as if amiss when pulled up at Musselburgh (15.5f) a month later though and connections quickly opt for a drop in class. Market may prove a useful guide. Stopped quickly when last seen but had shown promise on debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
BARON DE MIDLETON was far from disgraced when third in a class 3 handicap hurdle at Newcastle recently and the veteran rates as the one to beat on his return to claiming company. Although Foveros has 9lb to find on the ratings, Henry Oliver's gelding is feared most having finished ahead of the selection when runner-up at Leicester in January. Allbetsoff could also have a say if coping with softer ground conditions.
BARON DE MIDLETON quickly returned to form when third in handicap company at Newcastle 11 days ago and, holding excellent claims on these terms down in grade, Brian Ellison's veteran looks the one to side with. That said Foveros is finding his feet for his new yard and is a player, with Allbetsoff another who can feature.
Baron De Midleton has the best chance on current ratings but at Leicester in January he finished behind FOVEROS, who is preferred.

1st (1)  (4/1 -60%)My Gift To You |
4/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) My Gift To You 4/1, Immediate improvement upon joining James Owen, scoring twice over both hurdles and fences this season. Bumped into an improved rival in handicap chase at Southwell (20.4f, soft) last month and he remains very much one to be interested in at this sort of level despite a 4 lb rise. Has form figures of 11234112 (hurdles/fences) for current yard; in the mix. |
|||
2nd (4)  (4/1 -45%)Bebside Banter |
4/1(-45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Bebside Banter 4/1, Dual winner at Sedgefield this term and acquitted himself well when second of 9 in handicap chase at same course (19.3f, heavy, 11/8) 28 days ago. Likely contender. Sound record over fences at Sedgefield; switch to Catterick is an unknown. |
|||
3rd (2)  (9/2 +36%)Titanium Bullet |
9/2(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Titanium Bullet 9/2, Reached the frame a few times in handicap hurdles for Warren Greatrex last term and ran to a similar level in both starts over fences for new yard this season, latest when creditable 1½ lengths fourth of 11 to Kings Justice over C&D 78 days ago. Respected. Still a maiden but ties in with Kings Justice on C&D running the last twice. |
|||
|B| (5)  (7/2 -17%)Kings Justice |
7/2(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Kings Justice 7/2, Off the mark here in December and backed that up with good second of 6 in handicap chase over C&D (soft) 33 days ago. Tongue strap on first time. Should go well again. Has form figures of 212, all over C&D, since wearing cheekpieces; solid claims. |
|||
|F| (3)  (10/3 +83%)Master Breffni |
10/3(+83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Master Breffni 10/3, More miss than hit over hurdles in Ireland and yet to really threaten in a trio of starts for new yard this season. Ex-Irish maiden; best effort for current stable came over C&D two runs ago. |
|||
|PU| (7)  (9/1 +44%)Halfway House Lad |
9/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Halfway House Lad 9/1, Still looking for first success but offered more than previously when third of 9 in handicap chase at Musselburgh (20.3f, soft) 17 days ago. 3 lb out of the weights but remains low mileage in this sphere. Positive signs the last twice; first win is not out of the question. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Jumping errors in the closing stages at Southwell contributed to MY GIFT TO YOU's unsuccessful hat-trick bid. Regardless, James Owen's charge still ran with plenty of credit to fill the runner-up berth and a 4lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from regaining the winning thread. Kings Justice has posted a string of good efforts over C&D in recent months and he is likely to be in the mix once more. Master Breffni should appreciate the return to this trip.
MY GIFT TO YOU continues to thrive for James Owen, finding further improvement when runner-up at Southwell last month. He can record his fifth success of the season. Bebside Banter and Kings Justice can also make their presence felt.
Kings Justice commands respect but, on the revised terms, TITANIUM BULLET has a fighting chance in his rematch with that rival.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (1)  (3/1 -50%)Sweet Fantasy |
3/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Sweet Fantasy 3/1, Useful 1m4f winner on Flat for Ralph Beckett who went in at the first time of asking over hurdles for her new yard in 2m Plumpton novice in January. Can do better still, so she's very much one to consider. Narrow win on hurdle debut; useful on Flat and could have lots more to offer in this code. |
|||
2nd (3)  (8/15 +42%)Lily Du Berlais |
8/15(+42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Lily Du Berlais 8/15, Fairly useful bumper performer but yet to match that in this sphere, last seen being pulled up in a Grade 2 at Fairyhouse (20.4f, good to soft) 11 months ago. Drops appreciably in grade, so she should go very close provided she's ready to roll. Absent since pulled up last April but strong claims judged on her previous form. |
|||
3rd (6)  (16/1 -33%)Snowrocco |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Snowrocco 16/1, Placed on her completed start in Irish points and offered something to work on when fourth of 7 in novice hurdle at Wetherby (16f, heavy) last month. She'll be suited by further than 2m in time, but is entitled to take a step forward all the same. Promising fourth at Wetherby on last month's rules debut and could have a part to play. |
|||
4th (5)  (7/1 +50%)Rialannah |
7/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Rialannah 7/1, Stiff task when ninth in listed bumper at Doncaster on debut in December and showed promise when third of 11 in 20.5f Huntingdon novice hurdle next time. Arguably went for home too soon when well beaten at Carlisle (19.3f, soft) last month, so can get back on track returned to 2m. Disappointing at Carlisle but good third at Huntingdon previously and not written off. |
|||
5th (2)  (200/1 -506%)Chantilly Dragon |
200/1(-506%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Chantilly Dragon 200/1, Offered something to work on when third in bumper at Sedgefield in November but failed to repeat that effort back there (16.8f, soft) on Boxing Day. Others make more appeal now she goes hurdling. Displayed some ability in the first of her two bumpers but others make greater appeal. |
|||
6th (4)  (400/1 -167%)Naughty Nancie |
400/1(-167%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Naughty Nancie 400/1, Tailed off in a bumper/maiden hurdle 5 years apart. Tailed off at big odds on both starts. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
LILY DU BERLAIS posted some smart form in Graded company in Ireland last season and she should take all the beating if returning at anywhere near that level, with the main threat likely to emerge in the shape of Sweet Fantasy. The James Owen-trained five-year-old made a winning debut over hurdles at Plumpton and warrants respect given her ability on the Flat. Snowrocco looks most appealing of the remainder.
This can go the way of LILY DU BERLAIS, who is yet to match her fairly useful bumper form in this sphere but has been campaigned solely in graded events and this is a much easier assignment returning from 11 months off. Second choice is Sweet Fantasy, who carries a penalty having gone in at the first time of asking over hurdles for her new yard at Plumpton in January, with Snowrocco seemingly best of the remainder.
Preference is for LILY DU BERLAIS, who returns from an absence but has shown promise in Graded novice hurdles in Ireland.

1st (4)  (5/4 +17%)Haston Clermont |
5/4(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Haston Clermont 5/4, Runner-up sole completed start in points and shaped well on Rules debut in a bumper. Failed to build on that in 3 hurdle starts but has proved a different proposition switched to fences, just denied the hat-trick at Chepstow. Further progress is possible, so another big run is on the cards. Nose second at Chepstow last time when bidding for hat-trick, behind well-treated winner. |
|||
2nd (6)  (16/1 -45%)Ribeye |
16/1(-45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Ribeye 16/1, Made a cracking start over fences, value for extra when winning Hexham handicap in May. However, has gone the wrong way in 3 subsequent starts so has plenty to prove. Two wins in the first half of last year but struggled on his two outings this winter. |
|||
3rd (1)  (20/1 -208%)Aquila Sky |
20/1(-208%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aquila Sky 20/1, Fairly useful hurdler at best but struggled in only 2 starts in 2021/22 (chase debut on first occasion). After 26 months off, shaped as if needing the outing when down the field at Doncaster but fared a little better when sixth there next time. Has a bit to prove back over fences here. Hint of spark over hurdles latest but not the force of old and others have less to prove. |
|||
4th (3)  (11/8 +39%)Tom Cody |
11/8(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Tom Cody 11/8, Off the mark at Newcastle in December. Improved when following up at Wetherby (19.4f, heavy) on Boxing Day and wasn't disgraced in a stronger contest at the latter course. Resumed progress when just denied over C&D last month and needs considering off 2 lb higher. Two wins in December and neck second to improving rival over C&D latest; likeable claims. |
|||
5th (5)  (11/1 +8%)Skyhill |
11/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Skyhill 11/1, Veteran who ended last season on a winning note and stepped up on reappearance third when getting the better of a subsequent scorer over C&D on New Year's Day. Wasted no time getting back on track when fourth at Ayr but others look better treated. Fair fourth at Ayr last time and could build on that now back at a venue where he's 2-2. |
|||
6th (2)  (10/1 -54%)Grove Road |
10/1(-54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Grove Road 10/1, Looked a promising stayer in the making when winning a brace of novice hurdles in late 2022. However, hasn't kicked on since and 2 of his 3 starts over fences have resulted in heavy defeats. Drop back in trip should suit. Given a chance by the handicapper and could go well now back down in trip. |
|||
|PU| (7)  (100/1 -300%)Get 'em In |
100/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Get 'em In 100/1, Showed little over hurdles and similar story over fences to date. 13 lb out of the handicap. 11-race maiden who is 13lb out of the handicap today and others are preferred. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
HASTON CLERMONT continues in cracking form after being touched off when on a hat-trick at Chepstow in January, and has been put up a further 4lb for that display. Noel Williams' seven-year-old makes only his fifth chase start and could still have improvement in him. Tom Cody, who was only denied by a neck over track and trip last month, has to be considered, while Skyhill is also worth a second look.
HASTON CLERMONT split a couple of subsequent winners when failing by the narrowest of margins to bring up the hat-trick at Chepstow so is fancied to resume winning ways. Tom Cody is also on the upgrade and is a clear next best.
The progressive 7yo HASTON CLERMONT (nap) was narrowly denied a hat-trick at Chepstow last time and can return to winning ways here.

1st (3)  (10/3 +0%)Champ Royal |
10/3(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Champ Royal 10/3, Rallied well to enhance a good strike rate for this yard when landing a C&D handicap a month ago, rallying. On the up and merits plenty of respect. Made it 3-5 for this yard with C&D win last time out and he's respected. |
|||
2nd (4)  (8/15 +65%)Burrows Hall |
8/15(+65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Burrows Hall 8/15, Holding form well prior to scoring in good style over C&D last time, looking well suited by the step up in distance. Worth a chance to follow up. Easy win over C&D last week on first crack at a staying trip; 7lb penalty may not stop him. |
|||
3rd (2)  (5/1 -43%)Barricane |
5/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Barricane 5/1, Two from his last three and produced a career-best effort to score at Huntingdon last time, despite racing lazily. Can make his presence felt again if the emphasis is on stamina. Has won under Lewis Saunders on last 2 h'cap h'dle starts; could play another leading role. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
All four contenders are last-time-out winners but preference is for ONWARD ROUTE, who went in by a length and a half over C&D in November. The Rebecca Menzies-trained top-weight may have been let off lightly with a 2lb rise and he could be the one to beat again. Champ Royal, who is seeking a hat-trick after supplementing a Musselburgh victory with a triumph over track and trip, has to be respected. Barricane and penalised C&D scorer Burrows Hall must not be dismissed lightly.
This looks competitive for a small field, the quartet all last-time-out winners, but preference is for BURROWS HALL, who improved for a step up in trip when scoring readily over C&D recently. Barricane and Champ Royal are both obvious dangers.
Top of the list is BURROWS HALL, who did it easily last week on his first crack at a staying trip and can defy a 7lb penalty.

1st (5)  (9/2 -13%)Plastic Paddy |
9/2(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Plastic Paddy 9/2, Last of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 17/2) 11 days ago. Ran well on penultimate outing and stable is going well, so not dismissed. Handicapped to go well if back on song after inexplicable performance. |
|||
2nd (1)  (10/3 +5%)Maysong |
10/3(+5%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Maysong 10/3, Course winner. 28/1, creditable third of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 45 days ago. On a fair mark and has been holding form well, so likely to be on the premises. Just 1-27 on AW but ran well enough in a Chelmsford 0-85 last time to be considered. |
|||
3rd (4)  (9/4 +44%)Arctician |
9/4(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Arctician 9/4, Course winner. 11/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 27 days ago, never nearer. Not dismissed. 2-2 last March and his frame efforts of late suggest another win is around the corner. |
|||
4th (3)  (11/2 +50%)Stately Home |
11/2(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Stately Home 11/2, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. Ninth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 17 days ago. Trainer does well with what he has but this one needs to bounce back. |
|||
5th (7)  (40/1 +20%)Vellner |
40/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Vellner 40/1, 100/1, last of 9 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f) 43 days ago. Down in trip. Up against it. Shown very little in four British starts; tackles shortest trip to date. |
|||
6th (8)  (16/1 -33%)Eklil |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Eklil 16/1, Creditable seventh of 12 in handicap (22/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 16 days ago. Not discounted. Has race in him for new yard but not sure dropping back to a mile is the answer. |
|||
7th (9)  (15/2 -50%)Local Bay |
15/2(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Local Bay 15/2, Three wins from 11 runs last year. 12/1, good fourth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 30 days ago, running on. Considered. Handicapper might be in charge and runs here for first time. |
|||
8th (6)  (14/1 -115%)Silastar |
14/1(-115%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Silastar 14/1, C&D winner. Two wins from 6 runs last year. Last of 7 in handicap (8/1) at Goodwood (9.9f, heavy). Off 6 months. Tailed off when last seen and 1m may not be enough of a test on his return. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Arctician has been thereabouts in this grade at Lingfield the last twice and it would be no surprise to see him involved again off the same mark. However, the vote goes to MAYSONG, who bounced back to form to reach the frame at Chelmsford in January and his mark has been lowered by 1lb. Alice Haynes' gelding looks well placed to record his fifth career victory. Of the remainder, Silastar appeals most on his return to action.
LOCAL BAY was back to his best and shaped better than the result when fourth at Lingfield a month ago, so he's worth taking a chance on in the hope that they go a sound pace. Arctician rarely runs a bad race at this track, so he's feared along with Maysong, who has also been in good order.
This could go to the consistent ARCTICIAN who was 2-2 in this month last year. Plastic Paddy is feared most.

1st (2)  (3/1 -9%)Gaboriot |
3/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Gaboriot 3/1, Won a pair of 3m handicaps in the autumn. Good third at Ludlow (3m again) just before Christmas. Should be up to making his presence felt back in a hunter. In good form in handicap chases towards end of last year and he's on the shortlist. |
|||
2nd (6)  (4/1 +47%)Windsor Avenue |
4/1(+47%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Windsor Avenue 4/1, Fairly useful chaser on his day and, while he's yet to fully fire in hunters for this yard, he had an excuse (raced on the inner) at Haydock last time, so not one to rule out. Strong form last season but well below that level in two hunter chases last month. |
|||
3rd (7)  (17/2 +74%)Drop Him In |
17/2(+74%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Drop Him In 17/2, Ended his time for Olly Murphy out of sorts and, while he's been placed on his last 3 starts in points, he has something to find back under Rules. Others have shown considerably more but he arrives in fair form; not ruled out each-way. |
|||
4th (4)  (2/1 +50%)Percussion |
2/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Percussion 2/1, Three-time chase winner who goes well over the Aintree National fences, placed in the Grand Sefton and Becher Chases this season. Seemed amiss on hunter debut at Leicester 8 days ago but could bounce back quickly. Pulled up in hunter chase last week but leading claims if rediscovering this season's best. |
|||
5th (3)  (12/1 -200%)Jerrysback |
12/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Jerrysback 12/1, Useful chaser who landed a couple of veterans' events in 2022 and, while he has a long absence to overcome, he'd be one to note if the market spoke in his favour. Absent since September 2022 but strong form that summer; market check advised on return. |
|||
6th (8)  (12/1 +14%)Ballydonagh Boy |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ballydonagh Boy 12/1, Multiple point winner (ran with credit last time) but his Rules form isn't good enough to make him a serious player in this. Needs others to underperform but that's possible; not without hope each-way. |
|||
|F| (5)  (25/1 -355%)Romain De Senam |
25/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Romain De Senam 25/1, Smart chaser at best whose form dropped away for David Pipe when last seen in 2022. Hard to know how much ability he retains starting out in hunters for a new yard. Very useful handicap chaser in his prime but this 12yo returns from long absence today. |
|||
|U| (10)  (100/1 -52%)Jobsonfire |
100/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Jobsonfire 100/1, Has lost his form both under Rules and between the flags and is hard to fancy again. Lightly raced in recent seasons and soundly beaten in a hunter chase at Ludlow last month. |

|PU| (12)  (12/1 +14%)Torygraph |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Torygraph 12/1, Lost his way for Gordon Elliott and it's a good while since he's been seen under Rules, so hard to make a strong case for despite proving he retains ability in points. Often placed in points in last two seasons but suspicion he'll be vulnerable today. |
|||
|PU| (1)  (66/1 -100%)Dressedforsuccess |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Dressedforsuccess 66/1, Disappointing in hunters at Cartmel (back with James Moffatt on latest outing) last spring and returns from 9 months off with plenty to prove. Struggled in two hunter chases last spring; this 11yo has lots to prove on first run since. |
|||
|PU| (9)  (80/1 -21%)High Up In The Air |
80/1(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) High Up In The Air 80/1, Won 5 on the bounce over fences in 2020/21 but hasn't shown much since. First run for yard after leaving Philip Kirby. Posted handicap chase five-timer in 2020-21 but has shown very little since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
JERRYSBACK hasn't been seen since finishing stone last in a class 2 handicap at Perth in September 2022, but he returns to action at a considerably lower level. Successful in the Listed Summer Cup at Uttoxeter on his penultimate appearance, Ben Haslam's 12-year-old should prove hard to beat if anywhere near his peak. Gaboriot finished a close-up third off a mark of 122 when on a three-timer at Ludlow, which puts him bang in contention. Drop Him In has filled the runner-up spot on each of his last three point-to-point starts and, along with Percussion and Windsor Avenue, is another to note.
GABORIOT perhaps doesn't have quite as much class as some of his rivals but he's in form and has much less to prove than most, so he's preferred to Jerrysback, who has a long absence to overcome. Percussion is also likely to play a hand if he can put a tame display at Leicester behind him.
Most of the main players have something to prove and that leaves the door open for GABORIOT, who has been in good form this season.

1st (10)  (11/2 +8%)Brodie's Boy |
11/2(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Brodie's Boy 11/2, Lightly-raced colt. 13/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 23 days ago. Step up in trip could well benefit him and he's one to consider. In the mix but suspect moving up in trip from 9.4f needs to eke out more. |
|||
2nd (9)  (11/8 +66%)Across Earth |
11/8(+66%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Across Earth 11/8, Twice-raced colt. Fourth of 8 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in October, still displaying signs of greenness. Could yet have more to offer back from a break. Further step up in trip and return to a more galloping track could see him improve again. |
|||
3rd (7)  (9/2 +63%)North Winterfell |
9/2(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) North Winterfell 9/2, Golden Horn colt. Dam once-raced half-sister to high-class Al Kazeem. 33/1, offered something to work on despite finishing last of 5 on debut in a Wolverhampton novice (9.5f) 23 days ago. Feasible to think he can do better. Should leave debut effort behind with extra yardage likely to suit on breeding. |
|||
4th (1)  (18/1 -260%)El Pro |
18/1(-260%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) El Pro 18/1, Fair maiden who made frame on 6 of his 8 starts on the Flat in Germany. Pulled up both starts over hurdles upon joining present stable but he could yet get back on track returned to the Flat with Rossa Ryan an eye-catching booking. Started out in Britain with two pulled-up efforts over hurdles; probably best watched. |
|||
5th (4)  (25/1 -79%)Come On Chief |
25/1(-79%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Come On Chief 25/1, Bated Breath gelding. 11/1, showed a bit amidst greenness when sixth of 9 in maiden at Southwell (8.1f) on debut 11 days ago, keeping on when hampered final 1f. Significantly up in trip here and he may do better. Showed a bit on debut and could better that sixth placing if staying this trip. |
|||
6th (8)  (6/1 -100%)Trojan Storm |
6/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Trojan Storm 6/1, Thrice-raced colt who wasn't seen to best effect when third of 6 in minor event at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 4/1) 19 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Likely player in a race lacking depth. Can bounce back and play a big part if getting stronger pace to aim at. |
|||
7th (12)  (20/1 -264%)City Saint |
20/1(-264%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) City Saint 20/1, Cityscape filly. Dam 1m-2m winner. Wears hood and another who needs monitoring in the betting for clues on racecourse bow. Those to have run don't set too high a standard and she's worth noting in the betting. |
|||
8th (5)  (50/1 -52%)Spitfire Bridge |
50/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Spitfire Bridge 50/1, Modest form in 3 bumpers and looked one for later on in this sphere when fifth of 7 in minor event (150/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) on flat debut 30 days ago. Beat just fellow outsiders when fifth of seven on Flat debut last month. |
|||
9th (11)  (10/1 -100%)Sitcom |
10/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Sitcom 10/1, Masar filly. Half-sister to smart 10.5f-12.5f winner Sublimis and useful 13f winner L'absolue and useful 1¼m-1¾m winner Lillian Russell. One to monitor closely in the betting on debut. Of obvious interest on paper and this looks a winnable race. |
|||
10th (6)  (50/1 -52%)Angelica K |
50/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Angelica K 50/1, 55,000 gns purchase who shaped quite well when third on debut in maiden here (11f0 in January. Couldn't build on that when sixth at Newcastle (10.2f) 2 weeks ago though and handicaps may be more her bag moving forward. Good run followed by a bad one; of more interest once handicapping. |
|||
11th (2)  (250/1 -150%)Charming Oscar |
250/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Charming Oscar 250/1, Twice-raced gelding. 250/1, last of 13 in maiden at this course (7f) 17 days ago, always behind. Significantly up in trip. Failed to beat a rival two starts in January/February; steps up in trip from 7f. |
|||
12th (3)  (200/1 -203%)Simply Ed |
200/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Simply Ed 200/1, Once-raced gelding. 150/1, last of 9 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW) on debut 42 days ago. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Mark Hoad. Tailed off on belated debut for Mark Hoad six weeks ago; up 5f for Adam West here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Trojan Storm has finished third on both starts since joining the Ian Williams stable and he helps set the standard with a rating of 75 so would be foolish to overlook. However, a chance can be taken on newcomer SITCOM, who goes for the in-form Charlie Johnston yard, is out of a mare who landed the Prix Royal-Oak, and is closely related to plenty of winners. Any market confidence behind City Saint on her first outing would also be of interest.
TROJAN STORM seemed unsuited by the steady gallop when third over this sort of trip at Wolverhampton 3 weeks ago and, remaining the type to do better, he gets the nod to come out on top. Brodie's Boy and Across Earth are others to consider, with newcomer Sitcom another to note.
Now tackling a longer trip, NORTH WINTERFELL is taken to leave his debut effort behind.

(3)  (15/8 +25%)Wake Up Harry |
15/8(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Wake Up Harry 15/8, Course winner. Blinkered for 1st time, won 10-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 15/8) 23 days ago, cosily. Capable of following up if the headgear continues to have a positive effect. Major player if okay back at sprint trip. |
|||
1st (2)  (2/1 +20%)Big R |
2/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Big R 2/1, C&D winner. Winner here in January. Creditable sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 9/4) 40 days ago, left poorly placed. Respected. Get back on track with latest sixth easy to excuse (wide draw/wide trip). |
|||
2nd (8)  (7/1 +13%)Glamorous Express |
7/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Glamorous Express 7/1, Latest win at Lingfield in November. Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap (7/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 19 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Likely to be back on his game. Struck off this mark at Lingfield in November; RPRs gone backwards since; course debut. |
|||
3rd (5)  (7/1 +0%)Man On A Mission |
7/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Man On A Mission 7/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in February. 3/1, fourth of 5 in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago. In good order and should put up another solid showing for all that the handicapper probably has his measure now. Could easily prove best again if pace is at least honest. |
|||
4th (6)  (5/1 -43%)Mccauley's Tavern |
5/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mccauley's Tavern 5/1, C&D winner. Winner here in January. 9/2, third of 5 in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago, left poorly placed. Should give another good account. Came through to win with bit in hand over C&D in January (off 3lb lower); excuses since. |
|||
5th (7)  (80/1 -471%)Many A Year |
80/1(-471%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Many A Year 80/1, Last of 10 in handicap (50/1) at this course (7f) 21 days ago. Struggling for form and hard to fancy. Shown very little for John Butler (bought for just 1,500gns). |
|||
6th (1)  (66/1 -100%)Howzak |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Howzak 66/1, Course winner. Five wins from 16 Flat runs. 4/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f). Off 16 months. First run for yard after leaving Robyn Brisland. 5-16 but he'll do well to take this starting out for new yard off such a break. |
|||
7th (4)  (28/1 -250%)Watermelon Sugar |
28/1(-250%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Watermelon Sugar 28/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 10/3, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Bath (5f, good). Off 7 months. Likely to strip fitter for this. Suspect he's back on a mark he can win off and market can guide on his return. |
|||
8th (9)  (125/1 -942%)Peggoty |
125/1(-942%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Peggoty 125/1, First run since leaving Ed Walker when 4¼ lengths last of 5 to Glamorous Express in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 22/1). Off 122 days. First run for yard after leaving Robyn Brisland. Something to prove. Can only watch starting out for another new yard. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Wake Up Harry responded well to first-time blinkers to make it two out of his last three at Wolverhampton, and he is likely to be on the premises again. However, he is 8lb higher than for the first of those victories so the vote goes to C&D winner MCCAULEY'S TAVERN, who was far from disgraced in third over track and trip last week and competes off an unchanged mark. Watermelon Sugar completes the shortlist on his return to the fray.
WAKE UP HARRY reacted well to blinkers when landing a Wolverhampton handicap with something to spare 3 weeks ago, so he's worth a chance to follow up at the possible expense of Big R, who was better than the result at the same course last time. Man On A Mission is another to consider.
From the rail draw, MCCAULEY'S TAVERN is taken to get a bit of cover before pouncing late.

1st (4)  (11/4 +39%)Supreme King |
11/4(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Supreme King 11/4, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Visored for 1st time, wasn't seen to best effect on the back of deep trip when sixth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 5/2) 32 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Could figure. 0-16 and didn't prove very amenable when well backed last time; others safer. |
|||
2nd (7)  (11/2 +31%)Starsong |
11/2(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Starsong 11/2, Latest win at Wolverhampton in February. Respectable third of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 11/2) 11 days ago. Hood back on. More required. Could feasibly give it a good shot from or near the front under Rossa Ryan. |
|||
3rd (2)  (6/1 -140%)Bora Bora |
6/1(-140%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Bora Bora 6/1, 20/1, did well under the circumstances when close third of 9 to Thank The Lord in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 13 days ago, never nearer having had plenty to do entering straight. Looks competitive on form. Close third to Thank The Lord latest; big player with this stiffer 6f likely to suit. |
|||
4th (3)  (6/1 +50%)Libra Tiger |
6/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Libra Tiger 6/1, C&D winner. 50/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 20 days ago, short of room briefly 1f out. Others look stronger. Lot to like if Chelmsford wasn't for him 20 days ago. |
|||
5th (5)  (17/2 -143%)Thank The Lord |
17/2(-143%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Thank The Lord 17/2, Three wins from 13 runs last year. 11/2, wasted no time getting back to form when winning 9-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 13 days ago, responding well. Expected to be bang there from just 2 lb higher. Bora Bora might be the one to take out of latest race but he's not entirely discounted. |
|||
6th (6)  (5/1 +23%)Mokaatil |
5/1(+23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mokaatil 5/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in February. Eighth of 10 in handicap (15/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 2 days ago, hampered. Not dismissed. Ended long losing run at Wolverhampton last month; badly hampered when eighth on Monday. |
|||
7th (1)  (12/1 -9%)Snuggle |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Snuggle 12/1, 13/2, eighth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to soft) back in October, weakening over 2f out. Probably best watched on first run for yard after leaving Ed Walker. New trainer is no stranger to landing a gamble so market check advised. |
|||
8th (8)  (12/1 +52%)Hombre |
12/1(+52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Hombre 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 18/1, 3¾ lengths eighth of 9 to Thank The Lord in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 13 days ago, slowly away. Equipment left off and dropped another 4 lb, but likely to come up short once again. Finished behind Thank The Lord and Bora Bora in second handicap 13 days ago. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SUPREME KING was sent off favourite on his first start over 6f since July 2022 when coming home in sixth at Wolverhampton, but after racing wide and hanging right, it may pay to be in a forgiving mood with David Evans' charge now 2lb lower on a right-handed track. Bora Bora was half a length behind Thank The Lord in third at Chelmsford but he was slowly away on that occasion and provided it doesn't become a habitual occurrence, he can reverse the form and emerge as the main danger to the selection.
An open-looking sprint which can go the way of THANK THE LORD, who impressed with his attitude when scoring at Chelmsford just less than 2 weeks ago and a small rise in the weights shouldn't be beyond Simon Hodgson's charge. Bora Bora did well to get as close to the selection as he did last time, so he may emerge as the main danger, with Supreme King and Mokaatil not out of things, either.
With this stiffer 6f likely to suit, BORA BORA is fancied to turn the tables on Thank The Lord from their clash 13 days ago.

9/4(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Media Shooter 9/4, C&D winner. Latest win here in February. 13/2, good second of 10 in handicap at this C&D 17 days ago. Has good chance on form. Done little wrong in 2024 and looks the one to beat. |
|||
2nd (3)  (7/1 +0%)Mashadi |
7/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Mashadi 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Below par last 2 starts for different yards. Off 162 days/gelded. Makes polytrack debut. First run for yard after leaving Dominic Ffrench Davis. Makes handicap debut. Must bounce back. Expensive to follow but there are possible sources of improvement. |
|||
3rd (4)  (12/1 -200%)Jungle Mac |
12/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Jungle Mac 12/1, Lightly-raced winner. 1/16, didn't need to improve to win 4-runner maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) 11 days ago, easily. Makes handicap debut. Can make presence felt. Not easy to assess as last-time-out win told us little; rather watch first handicap. |
|||
4th (7)  (11/1 -100%)Nariko |
11/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Nariko 11/1, Much improved to win 9-runner novice at this C&D, cosily. Off 161 days. First run for yard after leaving Kevin Ryan. Should have more to offer and she makes plenty of appeal now handicapping. Form of cosy C&D win in September has taken plenty of knocks and she's changed yards since. |
|||
5th (1)  (7/2 +75%)Roman Emperor |
7/2(+75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Roman Emperor 7/2, Winner at Southwell in January. 15/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 17 days ago. Has ground to make up on Media Shooter from their C&D clash 17 days ago. |
|||
6th (8)  (4/1 +67%)Brunel Nation |
4/1(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Brunel Nation 4/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 15 in novice (9/2) at Windsor (6f, good to soft). Off 142 days/gelded. Makes handicap debut. Something to find on form. Could be a different proposition sent handicapping at three. |
|||
7th (6)  (12/1 -20%)Macanudo |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Macanudo 12/1, Career best when winning 6-runner novice at Chelmsford City (5f, 9/4) 26 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Olly Murphy. More needed again. More to do back in a handicap for another new set of connections. |
|||
8th (5)  (25/1 -79%)Kinnigoli Kid |
25/1(-79%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Kinnigoli Kid 25/1, One win from 3 runs last year. 28/1, fifth of 10 in nursery at Sandown (5f, good to firm), unsuited by drop in trip. Off 6 months. Has work to do. Might find at least a couple too streetwise on his return. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
JUNGLE MAC makes his handicap debut off what looks a workable mark and after fairly bolting up at Chelmsford when still not looking like the finished article, he can make a bold bid with the promise of more to come. Fellow handicap debutant Nariko warrants respect on the back of a workmanlike success over C&D in September, since when she has left Kevin Ryan for Hugo Palmer. Mashadi also starts off for a new yard and having shaped with promise on multiple occasions last season, and on the back of a gelding operation, he holds claims of at least hitting the frame.
Expensive Breeze-Up purchase NARIKO showed big improvement when off the mark at the third attempt over C&D on her final run for Kevin Ryan in September and should have more to offer still switched to handicaps. The thriving Media Shooter is next best ahead of Jungle Mac.
This is slightly easier than the C&D contest MEDIA SHOOTER finished second in 17 days ago and he's the suggestion.

7/4(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Freetodream 7/4, Off the mark at Brighton last year and has continued in good heart since, having hopeless task from position when fifth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, 11/4) a month ago. Major player back down in grade. Drops in grade & he's one for the shortlist under suitable conditions; can miss the break. |
|||
2nd (8)  (5/1 +23%)Beauen Arrows |
5/1(+23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Beauen Arrows 5/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Best effort of the year when second of 13 in minor event (17/2) at this C&D 2 weeks ago. Task is now to be able to build on his latest effort. Back to form when 2nd over C&D two weeks ago; contender with a repeat. |
|||
3rd (6)  (3/1 +33%)Heerathetrack |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Heerathetrack 3/1, Opened account at Chelmsford in January and followed up at this C&D 2 weeks later. Again ran well when third of 12 in handicap here (8f, 10/3) 28 days ago. Respected. In good form since the visor returned and he holds sound claims in a weak race. |
|||
4th (3)  (11/1 -10%)Chico Dulce |
11/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Chico Dulce 11/1, After 3 months off, showed more than previously on first run since leaving Rebecca Woodman when sixth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, 33/1) 27 days ago. Remains lightly raced so he could still have more to offer. Promising stable debut at Lingfield 4 weeks ago; brings the prospect of further progress. |
|||
5th (7)  (12/1 -33%)Bantry |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Bantry 12/1, Not in the same form as previous outing when fifth of 8 in handicap at Bath (8f, good, 7/2) when last seen in September (has had a wind op since). Hood now the choice of headgear on his return. Ran well fresh last May; had a wind op during his absence; new headgear; interesting. |
|||
6th (4)  (13/2 -8%)Revision |
13/2(-8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Revision 13/2, Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Very good third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 14/1) 2 days ago, hanging under pressure from 1f out. Close 3rd at Wolverhampton on Monday, hanging badly left when hitting the front; stays 7f. |
|||
7th (5)  (18/1 +10%)La Rav |
18/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) La Rav 18/1, Ended last year out of form, twelfth of 13 in handicap at this course (8f, 11/1) on his final outing in October. Others preferred after 5 months off. Regressive last year but he'd had a break and returns off a lowly mark; check betting. |
|||
8th (9)  (100/1 -150%)College Wizard |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) College Wizard 100/1, In first-time visor, fared no better when seventh of 9 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 80/1) 20 days ago. Has something to find with cheekpieces back on. Modest 15-race maiden who looks up against it once more. |
|||
9th (2)  (33/1 -230%)Federated |
33/1(-230%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Federated 33/1, Hasn't made much impact in a trio of starts so far, seventh of 8 in maiden at this course (8f, 150/1) 3 weeks ago. Watch for market clues as makes his handicap debut. Potential improver now handicapping at a low level; betting to guide. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
FREETODREAM didn't get the rub of the green when fifth at Lingfield last month. The four-year-old looks to have a race of this nature within his compass, though, and a first success on the all-weather could be imminent. Heerathetrack was thwarted in his hat-trick bid when third at Kempton, but he should remain competitive off the same rating. Chico Dulce is another to consider.
FREETODREAM remained in good form when mid-field at Lingfield on his latest outing, finishing well having been left poorly placed, so he is taken to resume winning ways as he drops back down in grade. Heerathetrack has also been going well and isn't taken lightly, with Chico Dulce completing the shortlist.
Bantry is interesting back from a break/wind op but the unexposed CHICO DULCE's stable debut offered hope of better.

1st (4)  (5/1 +69%)Sam's Hope |
5/1(+69%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Sam's Hope 5/1, Ran creditably after a breathing operation when fifth of 12 in handicap at this course (8f) 4 days ago but others appeal as better treated at present. Modest seven-race maiden; no improvement for a wind op here on Saturday; others safer. |
|||
2nd (3)  (5/2 +38%)Fieldsman |
5/2(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Fieldsman 5/2, Latest win at Wolverhampton in January. Creditable third of 7 in handicap (10/1) there (8.6f) 23 days ago. Should go well again with regular 7-lb claimer aboard. Veteran but coming here in top form; should be involved once again. |
|||
3rd (8)  (18/1 -125%)No Turning Back |
18/1(-125%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) No Turning Back 18/1, Ran up to her best when second in a Lingfield apprentice event on penultimate outing last year but only mid-field there on next start, albeit probably racing closer to the pace than ideal. Worth market check after 131 days off. Beaten fav on her last four starts; she'll need to be at her best back from 131 days off. |
|||
4th (1)  (11/2 +15%)Ravenglass |
11/2(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ravenglass 11/2, Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. Hooded for 1st time, good third of 9 in handicap at this course (6f, 12/1) 28 days ago. Will prove suited by a return to 7f and he's respected. Good 3rd tried in hood here (6f) latest; return to 7f a +; considered despite losing run. |
|||
5th (2)  (12/1 -200%)Seas Of Elzaam |
12/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Seas Of Elzaam 12/1, Gambled on when second at Wolverhampton in January but down the field at this course (6f) 17 days ago. Others make more appeal, though any market support again would be significant. Second at Wolverhampton in January but below par when dropped to 6f latest. |
|||
6th (5)  (5/1 -25%)Swiss Rowe |
5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Swiss Rowe 5/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 12/1, very good third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 23 days ago, well positioned. Visor back on. Shortlist material. Two-time C&D winner who was a solid third at Wolverhampton last month; should be involved. |
|||
7th (7)  (12/1 -33%)Mr Marvlos |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Mr Marvlos 12/1, Unreliable individual. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, good to firm, 17/2), never nearer. Off 8 months. Significantly back down in trip. Others have achieved more. 0-17 but has shown winning potential; goes without headgear on this seasonal return. |
|||
8th (9)  (25/1 -25%)Arlo's Sunshine |
25/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Arlo's Sunshine 25/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 12/1, shaped as if needing run when ninth of 11 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) 16 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Should be sharper with last month's return from a break behind him. |
|||
9th (6)  (11/2 +61%)Muy Muy Guapo |
11/2(+61%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Muy Muy Guapo 11/2, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Not seen to best effect when tenth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 14/1) 33 days ago, no room 1f out. Has dropped to eye-catching mark but regular slow starts temper enthusiasm. Was making a move when badly impeded at Lingfield last month; not ruled out at this level. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Swiss Rowe backed up his C&D victory with a very solid effort to finish a close-up third at Wolverhampton, and he is likely to be thereabouts again off the same rating. However, preference is for FIELDSMAN, who continues to be in great heart after finishing third over an extended mile at Wolverhampton last month and he also remains on the same mark. Ravenglass is another to consider.
SWISS ROWE backed up January's C&D win with a sound effort at Wolverhampton last time and looks the most solid option in a modest contest, though Fieldsman has struck up a fine rapport with Jack Doughty and merits plenty of respect, with Ravenglass also considered back at 7f.
Ravenglass looks booked for another good run but MUY MUY GUAPO may belatedly manage to get off the mark.

1st (8)  (10/11 +34%)Rogue Dream |
10/11(+34%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Rogue Dream 10/11, Lightly-raced maiden. Excellent second of 12 in handicap (9/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 4 days ago, slowly away. Will take some stopping. Good 2nd on Saturday's handicap debut (7f); more to come and she's a key player. |
|||
2nd (2)  (18/1 -29%)Interestnpenalties |
18/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Interestnpenalties 18/1, 17/2, last of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 29 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Struggled in sprints for new yard but this trip should be more suitable. |
|||
3rd (1)  (5/1 +29%)Mister Mojito |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Mister Mojito 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Tenth of 12 in novice at this course (6f, 200/1), slowly away. Off 154 days. Makes handicap debut. Promise on debut; less good since but up in trip for his handicap debut; can do better. |
|||
4th (3)  (33/1 -313%)Ruth Langmore |
33/1(-313%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ruth Langmore 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 33/1, seventh of 9 in novice at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 46 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Promising debut but well held twice since; blinkers added for handicap debut; unexposed. |
|||
5th (4)  (17/2 +15%)Lord Danielson |
17/2(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Lord Danielson 17/2, Good second at Chelmsford but below form seventh of 12 in handicap (8/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 4 days ago. Could bounce back. Over 7l behind Rogue Dream on Saturday and opposable for win purposes once more. |
|||
6th (9)  (6/1 -20%)Amerigo Vespucci |
6/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Amerigo Vespucci 6/1, Sixth of 7 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 13/8) 50 days ago, not ideally placed. Left M. D. O'Callaghan 2,600 gns later in January and gelded. Potentially on a fair mark so worth a second look. Of interest on his peak Irish effort (7f, AW); been gelded; hood left off; one to consider. |
|||
7th (5)  (22/1 -57%)Mr Influence |
22/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mr Influence 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fifth of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 13/2) 27 days ago. No improvement for handicapping at Lingfield last month (1m); others have stronger claims. |
|||
8th (10)  (100/1 -52%)Majolica |
100/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Majolica 100/1, 125/1, first run since leaving Andrew Balding when eighth of 11 in handicap at this course (8f) 21 days ago. Looks limited and dropping back to 7f isn't enough to tempt. |
|||
9th (6)  (125/1 -279%)War Zone |
125/1(-279%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) War Zone 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 25/1) 27 days ago. Not beaten a rival in two handicap runs; down in weights but carries risk. |
|||
10th (7)  (12/1 -71%)Damia |
12/1(-71%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Damia 12/1, Respectable fourth of 13 in nursery at this C&D (16/1) 84 days ago. Not beaten far into 4th over C&D in December; didn't totally convince with stamina there. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
ROGUE DREAM put underwhelming efforts in her first three starts behind her to hit the crossbar on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton last weekend, and Jack Jones' filly could prove very difficult to beat off the same mark. Lord Danielson was behind her at Dunstall Park, but is a player if he can reproduce the form of his Chelmsford second prior to that. Mister Mojito is worth a market check on his handicap bow.
ROGUE DREAM showed big improvement when runner-up on her handicap bow at Wolverhampton on Saturday and has obvious claims off the same mark. Amerigo Vespucci is potentially on a fair mark starting out for a new yard so is feared most ahead of Lord Danielson.
This looks good for ROGUE DREAM (nap), who shaped well behind another big improver on Saturday's handicap debut.

1st (7)  (14/1 -180%)Pittsburg |
14/1(-180%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Pittsburg 14/1, Back from 4 months off when creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 26 days ago. Cheekpieces reapplied. Likely contender. Could strip fitter today and be more heavily involved than when fourth last time. |
|||
2nd (11)  (12/1 -71%)Eaux De Vie |
12/1(-71%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Eaux De Vie 12/1, 125/1 and blinkered for 1st time, second of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 53 days ago, no match for winner. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. No good thing to build on 125-1 second to last time out and dual subsequent winner. |
|||
3rd (14)  (22/1 -83%)Alioski |
22/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Alioski 22/1, Seventh of 10 in handicap (8/1) at this course (12f) 14 days ago. Blinkers back on. Others more appealing. 1 lb out of the weights. Ran poorly in unsatisfactory contest here two weeks ago. |
|||
4th (3)  (15/8 +87%)Crazy Maisie |
15/8(+87%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Crazy Maisie 15/8, Latest win at Chelmsford City in November. Creditable seventh of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (13f, AW, 25/1) 30 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Others preferred. RPR between 54-59 last seven starts and makes each-way appeal back in trip. |
|||
5th (2)  (15/2 +38%)Heavenly Wish |
15/2(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Heavenly Wish 15/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 25 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Work to do. Rise in trip and fitting of cheekpieces are most obvious sources of improvement (needed). |
|||
6th (5)  (8/1 -100%)Forever Proud |
8/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Forever Proud 8/1, Belatedly off the mark at Lingfield (10f) last month and didn't get the best of runs when third in minor event over same C&D 16 days ago. Shortlisted. Breakthrough win then very much shaped as if still in form; shortlisted. |
|||
7th (10)  (9/2 +36%)Delvey |
9/2(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Delvey 9/2, Posted solid efforts the last twice, latest when fourth of 8 in minor event at Lingfield (10f, AW) 16 days ago. Visor on first time. Likely to be in the mix again. 15-race maiden but fair run over trip tad too short latest. |
|||
8th (1)  (15/2 -7%)Global Tycoon |
15/2(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Global Tycoon 15/2, Course winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in October. 7/1 and visored for 1st time, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Not taken lightly. Dual winner but his effort flattened out at Southwell last week. |
|||
9th (4)  (100/1 -100%)Midgetonamission |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Midgetonamission 100/1, 66/1, first run since leaving David Evans when tenth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 26 days ago, missing break. Makes limited appeal. Lost way for David Evans and finished well behind two of these on last month's stable bow. |
|||
10th (6)  (12/1 -20%)How Hard Can It Be |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) How Hard Can It Be 12/1, C&D winner. One win from 24 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. 10/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, slowly away. Below par of late. Return to these conditions didn't spark a revival three weeks ago. |
|||
11th (13)  (200/1 -506%)Streetstorm |
200/1(-506%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Streetstorm 200/1, Seventh of 8 in minor event (40/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 16 days ago. Still looking for first success. 1 lb out of the handicap. Looks held by Forever Proud and Delvey on latest running. |
|||
12th (8)  (25/1 +24%)Urban Champion |
25/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Urban Champion 25/1, 20/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 37 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Often starts slowly and settling him will be the key over 1m3f here; can only watch. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Eaux De Vie outran huge odds in first-time blinkers to fill the runner-up berth over 1m4f at Wolverhampton and she could get into contention off the same rating. However, FOREVER PROUD has performed very well in classified events on each of her last three starts and she could defy her mark of 51 now that she is back in a handicap. Heavenly Wish is worth a second look in first-time cheekpieces, with Rossa Ryan booked.
Preference is for FOREVER PROUD, who has been in good form this year and returns to handicapping on a fair mark. Pittsburg and Delvey head the list of dangers.
It could be 17th-time lucky for IFTIKHAAR - his first frame effort this February can be upgraded and his second has been boosted.

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.
