Off time: 16:30 | Winning time: 4m 59.80s

Dicosimo^h³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽⁷⁾| T: W Greatrex| OR: 138| D

7/2

Scored with a bit in hand on first run following wind surgery and he has done well to escape with just a 6lb higher mark. Stable's horses have been running exceptionally well recently.

Form: 2P45P1

Canelie^t⁶⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Miss A B O'Connor⁽⁷⁾| T: H Fry| OR: 132| CD

9/2

Had plenty in hand when making a winning debut for this yard over C&D in January. Well beaten in a valuable race in Ireland since, but back at her winning level with a very capable amateur on board.

Form: 28-4P1P

Night Of Sin^b1²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Chester Williams⁽⁷⁾| T: Nick Williams| OR: 131

3/1

Picked up a couple of races in early 2017 but his sole good run since has come on the only occasion he has had a mark below 130. Work to do here unless blinkers produce an inspired display.

Form: 17-7295

Here's Herbie^t⁷⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-9| J: Lucy Gardner⁽³⁾| T: Mrs S Gardner| OR: 121| CD

7/2

Took this two years ago and two of his best performances this season have been over C&D. Unlucky at Exeter on New Year's Day and has been rested since disappointing last time.

Form: 85-4F34

Eureu Du Boulay^p²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: James Bowen⁽³⁾| T: R Hobson| OR: 125

12/1

Best form in France came when chasing home a useful sort at Saint-Brieuc in October. Pulled up in the Fred Winter on sole start for new yard but commands respect off this mark and if allowed to dictate the pace.

Form: 39521P

Risk And Roll^p,t¹⁶⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Bryony Frost⁽³⁾| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 115WS

11/2

Justified support at Kempton on good ground and off the track since trying to make all in October. Has undergone wind surgery since and races from 4lb out of the weights. That is negated by rider's claim and stable won this with Black Corton in 2017

Form: 4-513

Forecasts

Night Of Sin (3/1), Here's Herbie (7/2), Dicosimo (7/2), Canelie (9/2), Risk And Roll (11/2), Eureu Du Boulay (12/1)

Canelie and Eureu Du Boulay were pulled up in much more competitive races than this on their most recent starts. Both are capable of better than they showed on those occasions and will be assisted by their rider's individual claims Risk And Roll is an unexposed quantity who has a featherweight to carry if handling conditions, but Night Of Sin has a tough mark to overcome. Here's Herbie took this two years ago and a rest, following a disappointing run last time, may have been needed. DICOSIMO won with plenty to spare at Fontwell and the handicapper may have been generous. Runners from this yard have been excelling lately and he can go in again.
