Winner over 7f on his penultimate outing and put in a fair effort off this mark when fifth over the same trip last time out. Interesting runner tackling 1m+ for just the third time.

Put a number of disappointing efforts behind her when finishing third over C&D on her return from a break in October. Filled the same position here last time out and is one for the shortlist with a decent draw today.

Nine race maiden but running well in handicap company of late including when finishing fourth to Glenmoore over 7f here last time out. Races off the same mark today and this return to 1m looks likely to suit.

Maiden after 23 starts but put in one of her better efforts when finishing a close fifth over C&D last time out. More needed if she's to take this however.

Failed to figure in six starts so far most recently over C&D on her debut for this stable. Others have a more obvious chance today.

Forecasts

Latchet (11/4), No Approval (4/1), Turn On The Tears (11/2), So Sensible (13/2), Glenmoore (7/1), Adieux (8/1), Zippy (12/1), D K Travel (12/1), Summer Dove (14/1), Bluesbreaker (16/1), Prove The Point (20/1), Cascar Cavcha (20/1), Rosenborg Rider (20/1), Annagassan (22/1), One Love One Heart (25/1), Sand Creek (40/1), Rigid Rock (50/1)

Verdict

The Jim Bolger-trained LATCHET is taken to register her first win at the tenth time of asking in what looks a competitive contest. The selection should be suited by the return to 1m and can get the better of Turn On The Tears who has a good draw and ran well to finish third to an in-form rival last time out. Glenmoore who had the selection behind him when winning here on his penultimate outing can finish third today.
  1. Latchet
  2. Turn On The Tears
