Che Bella¹⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Connor Beasley| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 85

15/2

Has improved since switching to handicaps and more improvement entirely possible now she's stepped up in trip. Lightly raced and acts in the ground.

Broderie¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 85| D

10/11

Very impressive debut when green in the earlier stages and stepped up on that with another win at Chelmsford. Will need to improve again but she's well bred and yard do well with these types.

Form: 11

Creel¹²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: S De Sousa| T: D H Brown| OR: 76

9/2

Still a maiden after five starts and needs to have improved over the winter to play a part here. Eye-catching jockey booking and best turf effort did come on soft ground so can't be ruled out.

Ventura Dragon^p1¹⁶⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Connor Murtagh⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 76

8/1

Won a three-runner handicap at Ffos Las in heavy ground but handicapper seemingly took that form literally and he's struggled subsequently. Needs first-time cheekpieces to improve him.

Rayna's World¹⁸⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: J Quinn| T: P A Kirby| OR: 76

8/1

Winner on handicap debut when last seen at Yarmouth and 9lb rise for that perfectly fair. Capable of improvement now stepped up in trip.

Dr Richard Kimble¹⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: P J McDonald| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 75

16/1

Winner on handicap debut at Wolverhampton when last seen and form of that race franked subsequently by runner-up and the third. He can make his presence felt from just 4lb higher and trainer's runners often ready to go first time up.

Forecasts

Broderie (10/11), Creel (9/2), Technological (9/2), Che Bella (15/2), Ventura Dragon (8/1), Rayna's World (8/1), Dr Richard Kimble (16/1)

A chance is taken on DR RICHARD KIMBLE given that the form of his win last time has been franked multiple times since and there's every chance he will be fit to go here. Broderie is the obvious danger and she's likely to progress again while Rayna's World can run well and should appreciate the step up in trip.
