Bounty Pursuit¹¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Mitch Godwin⁽³⁾| T: M Blake| OR: 70| CD

14/1

Closely matched with Daring Guest judged on October's C&D win. That rival looks likely to strip fitter this time though.

Muhajjal^t²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan⁽⁵⁾| T: G Peckham| OR: 70| BF| D

5/1

Scored under this talented young rider at the turn of the year. Not disgraced next time and had a wide trip on his last start. Cannot be ruled out.

Form: 7961-27

Daring Guest⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Jane Elliott⁽⁵⁾| T: G G Margarson| OR: 69| CD

8/1

Appeared to be reaching last year's levels on latest start. Now just 2lb above last winning mark and appears ready to strike soon.

Form: 1240-74

Gulland Rock²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: William Carson| T: A Carson| OR: 68| CD

16/1

Dual C&D winner who is down to his last winning mark. Could get a soft lead in this and he will be fitter for his last run.

Form: 35406-0

Rock Icon²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: J Quinn| T: J Hughes| OR: 67

7/1

Won at Wolverhampton in January, but has been held off higher marks since. Looks vulnerable of his current mark.

Form: 35-1278

Screaming Gemini^b²³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: David Egan⁽³⁾| T: R Varian| OR: 67

5/1

Lost his way last summer but interesting to see his trainer has kept faith in him. Best run came on reappearance so that offers some hope, however the stable have made a slow start to the current campaign.

Form: 674/250-

Frozen Lake^p⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Ben Robinson⁽⁵⁾| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 67| CD

9/2

Has held his form well despite the attentions of the handicapper. Scored here in February and unlucky last time when finding plenty of trouble. His rider reported he hung right and the return to this right-handed track can only help.

Form: 8-01223

(9)

Clement^v⁷^{(ex 6)}

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: R Havlin| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 61| CD

10/1

Career record of 8-57 and his CV shows he can put a few wins together. A 6lb penalty for last week's success makes this tougher, but he has been competitive from similar marks in the recent past.

Form: 448671

Coverham^p¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: L Morris| T: J M P Eustace| OR: 66| CD

9/2

Off the mark at the 19th over C&D last time when enjoying a better trip than that rival. Has work to do to confirm that form with the pair meeting on similar terms.

Form: 3653-41

Forecasts

Coverham (9/2), Frozen Lake (9/2), Screaming Gemini (5/1), Muhajjal (5/1), Rock Icon (7/1), Daring Guest (8/1), Maazel (8/1), Clement (10/1), Bounty Pursuit (14/1), Gulland Rock (16/1)

Trainer John O'Shea holds a strong hand with Clement and Frozen Lake coming into this in good form. The latter in particular is entitled to step up on his latest run now he's back at Kempton and he is feared the most. This looks a good opportunity for DARING GUEST who also goes well here and who signalled he was approaching his best last time. Muhajjal and Maazel are other possibilities in an open contest where Gulland Rock may set this up nicely for the strong finishers in the lineup.
