Age: 4|  Weight: 9-7| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR:  55
6/1
Only 1lb higher than when winning at Yarmouth last July, she was too keen on her reappearance at Bath recently. That outing should have taken the edge off her and she is respected despite top weight.

Age: 6|  Weight: 9-7| J: Dane O'Neill| T: C Gordon| OR:  55| D
16/1
Has won twice over this trip, but his best form is some way distant and four runs for this stable have not produced much in the way of encouragement, although he was not disgraced at Brighton last time.

Age: 8|  Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Robinson(5)| T: G Harris| OR:  55| CD
7/1
In good form this year, including when winning over C&D in March. Second back on turf last time, he looks happier on this surface and another bold show is on the cards.

4/1
Two runs for his new yard have seen him win and finish third on the turf at Brighton. Switches to the AW for this and has to be in the mix if it suits off a feasible handicap mark.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: A Carson| OR:  53
11/4
Has raced only four times and ran well on his first start after being gelded when third of 11 at Yarmouth last month. Can do better again and, as he is open to improvement, has to go on the short list despite question marks about his suitability to the AW.

9/1
Finally shed her maiden tag at the 19th time of asking at Chelmsford last month. She is up 6lb for that, which makes life tough, but her confidence should be high now and she is respected.

33/1
Won a turf handicap at this track last summer, but has shown very little since. Perhaps a break might have done her good, but she cannot be recommended until showing signs of a revival.

Age: 5|  Weight: 9-1| J: Darragh Keenan(7)| T: J Butler| OR:  49| D
9/1
Used to run off handicap marks way in excess of this, but has lost the plot and was last of nine on his second run for this yard at Southwell last time. Difficult to know what to expect, but is tongue tied for the first time and is worth a check in the betting.

Hercullian Princeb4
Age: 5|  Weight: 9-1| J: M Harley| T: C R Dore| OR:  49
18/1
Completely lost his form and has been beaten by far more horses than he has finished in front of on his five starts this year. Readily opposed.

Frapv114
Age: 4|  Weight: 9-0| J: George Wood(5)| T: Ian Williams| OR:  48| D
12/1
Has won twice at a mile on turf, but has an abysmal record of no placings from 12 AW starts and, even with a first-time visor fitted, it is hard to see how he is going to be competitive on this surface.

Age: 4|  Weight: 8-13| J: S Donohoe| T: L McJannet| OR:  47| D
10/1
Has run well once or twice for this stable and a repeat of her close second off a 2lb higher mark at Kempton in March would put her in the mix. Each-way claims.

Forecasts

Cainhoe Star (11/4), Buzz Lightyere (4/1), Patanjali (6/1), Living Leader (7/1), Spryt (9/1), Just Fab (9/1), Free To Roam (10/1), Frap (12/1), Swiftee (14/1), Alketios (16/1), Hercullian Prince (18/1), Arctic Flower (33/1)

Verdict

Most of these are exposed handicappers, but one who might have got in lightly is CAINHOE STAR, who has not shone on his previous starts on the AW but showed improved form last time after being gelded. Spryt is dangerously well-handicapped if he can find any semblance of form, while Just Fab, Buzz Lightyere and Living Leader are others to consider in an open race.
  1. Cainhoe Star
  2. Just Fab
  3. Buzz Lightyere
