4/1

Showed improved form switched to handicaps last year, making it back-to-back wins with success in 5-runner handicap at Brighton (11.9f, heavy, 6/5) in September. Leading contender on her return.

11/1

Ran creditably from his easing mark when second of 6 in handicap (6/4) at Newcastle (16.2f) 29 days ago. Can give another good account back down in trip.

Form: 75-6602

Sax Appeal²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Archie Young⁽⁷⁾| T: C Johnston| OR: 77| D

9/1

Doubled his tally when making all at Wolverhampton in February. However, drawn wide when ninth of 16 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 17/2) 23 days ago. Could bounce back as he makes his turf debut.

Form: 128-619

Stonking⁸⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: H Main| OR: 77| D

10/1

Successful at Newbury last summer but below form on final 2 starts of the year. Raced too freely when tenth of 16 in novice at the same course (16.3f, soft, 33/1) on hurdling debut in January. Needs to get back on track.

Form: 1-25179

Detective¹⁸³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: Connor Murtagh| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 77

80/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Consistent in the main last year but unsuited by conditions when last of 7 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, heavy, 66/1) in October. May just be vulnerable to his younger rivals.

Furzig²³

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: J Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 75| D

22/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. In-and-out form so far this year, lesser effort when twelfth of 16 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 25/1) 23 days ago. Capable of getting involved if on a going day.

Form: 49-2930

Bohemian Breeze¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 75| D

14/1

Three wins from 10 runs last year, with latest success at Wolverhampton in November. Again ran respectably when fourth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Southwell (11.1f) 12 days ago. Can give his running once more.

Form: 713-034

Dark Jedi¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 75| D

13/2

Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. After 5 months off, shaped as if better for the run when third of 7 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, heavy, 13/2) 12 days ago. Now 20 lb below his last winning mark so he's not discounted.

Form: 84425-3

Simple Star²³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Hart| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 75| CD

14/1

Won 3 times last year (twice at this C&D) and ran well when neck second of 5 to the reopposing Baez in handicap here (18.1f, good to firm, 10/3) on his final outing of the campaign. One to consider on his return.

Form: 7/11212-

Baez²⁰⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 75| C

9/1

Racked up a 4-timer last year, including success at this course (18.1f), and not discredited upped in grade when third of 9 in handicap at Chester (18.6f, heavy, 7/2) in September. Respected on his reappearance.

Soowaih²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Saffie Osborne| T: J S Goldie| OR: 74

11/1

After 5 months off (gelded), finished with running left on first outing since leaving Roger Varian when fourth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 12/1) 27 days ago, still having plenty to do under 2f out. Shortlisted.

Form: 5518-4

My Little Queens⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 69| C

6/1

Course winner. Won twice in 2023 but yet to fire so for this year, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 125/1) 42 days ago. Drop back in grade needs to help spark a return to form.

Form: 43-9060

Destinado^b¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Aidan Keeley⁽³⁾| T: James Owen| OR: 69| D

14/1

Recorded a fifth win of the year at Doncaster in March. Has continued in good form since, fourth of 13 in handicap (5/1) at Bath (10.2f, heavy) 2 weeks ago. Can remain competitive back up in trip with blinkers reapplied.

Plus Point (4/1), My Little Queens (6/1), Dark Jedi (13/2), Sax Appeal (9/1), Baez (9/1), Stonking (10/1), Haveyoumissedme (11/1), Soowaih (11/1), Destinado (14/1), Simple Star (14/1), Bohemian Breeze (14/1), Furzig (22/1), Green Team (25/1), Detective (80/1)

PLUS POINT ended her 3-y-o campaign on the up, scoring easily at Brighton when last seen in September, and with more still to offer she can maintain her unbeaten record in handicaps on her return. Baez also thrived in 2023 and could be the main danger as she drops back down in grade on her reappearance, while Soowaih is also one to note.
