Arzaak^b⁹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Nicola Currie⁽⁵⁾| T: C A Dwyer| OR: 87| D

4/1

Consistent individual but only a turf and a fibresand win to his name already. Ran as well as ever when a runner-up at Southwell last time out in November but, as a result, faces a career-high mark for his return.

Dynamo Walt^v²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: P Mathers| T: D Shaw| OR: 85| D

7/1

A prolific synthetics winner over the years and advertised his present well-being by swooping late to win from a 2lb lower mark at Chelmsford (5f) last time out. Winless on this track, however, from six previous attempts.

Form: 674-651

(8)

Just That Lord¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: William Carson| T: M J Attwater| OR: 82| D

7/1

Twice a 5f winner with Bill Turner from 15 attempts and produced a fair effort for his new yard on his first start since May when beaten 4L over C&D earlier this month. Should come on for that.

Form: 35/320-4

Captain Lars^b⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 9-4| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin⁽⁷⁾| T: A Watson| OR: 82| BF| C| D

9/4

Experienced campaigner who gained career win number 13 in a Southwell claimer last month and has since placed in successive events at Chelmsford for this yard. Likely to produce another bold show but no margin for error.

Union Rose^p¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Tim Clark⁽³⁾| T: R Harris| OR: 81| D

16/1

Cashed in on a falling rating when winning off this same mark at Wolverhampton in December but hasn't raced with quite the same sparkle since, most recently when closely-matched with Just That Lord over C&D. More needed.

Form: 7016-73

(9)

Waseem Faris¹²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 9-1| J: K Shoemark| T: K O Cunningham-Brown| OR: 79| D

33/1

Winning for the seventh time on turf when victorious over 5f at Salisbury in the summer but ended the campaign with two poor efforts. Reappears here still searching for a first AW win at the 13th attempt.

Brother Tiger⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 8-12| J: Fran Berry| T: D C Griffiths| OR: 76| CD

7/4

A four-time winner over this C&D. most recently off a 1lb higher mark back in May. Had both Union Rose and Just The Lord in arrears when second over C&D on his penultimate start and should go well from stall 1.

Form: 602-224

Piazon^b,e/s,h¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-8| J: Robbie Walsh⁽⁷⁾| T: J Butler| OR: 72| D

33/1

Three early turf wins but has since developed into something of a fibresand-specialist with five wins at Southwell. The last time he appeared away from that venue he was only third over 6f here from a 10lb lower mark.

Form: 1066-39

(2)

Zipedeedodah^t¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-5| J: William Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: J Tuite| OR: 69| CD

20/1

Dual C&D winner in the past but his current losing streak has now been extended to 16 races following a lacklustre effort at Chelmsford last time out, though he is capable of much better than he showed that day.

Form: 558-438

Forecasts

Brother Tiger (7/4), Captain Lars (9/4), Arzaak (4/1), Dynamo Walt (7/1), Just That Lord (7/1), Union Rose (16/1), Zipedeedodah (20/1), Piazon (33/1), Waseem Faris (33/1)

An open-looking contest and a chance for BROTHER TIGER to notch C&D win number five from an inside draw. Despite his advancing years, David Griffiths gelding has been knocking at the door all winter off a slightly higher mark and had both Union Rose and Just That Lord in arrears when finishing second over C&D earlier this month. Captain Lars and Dyanamo Walt also look capable of playing a leading role.
