Cloud Eight^h,t⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Gabriele Malune⁽⁵⁾| T: M Botti| OR: 72

6/1

Not disgraced on turf debut at Yarmouth last time but difficult to see him getting competitive with the best of these off top weight, and would probably appreciate an extra furlong.

Form: 4-44396

Shovel It On²³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: A Kirby| T: P D Evans| OR: 71| D

3/1

Outclassed in a valuable sales race on his final start as a juvenile, but form otherwise solid. Ground should suit him well and every chance he can overcome this handicap mark on first start of the year.

Jeopardy John⁹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Paddy Bradley⁽⁵⁾| T: M J Attwater| OR: 71

11/2

Seems better over this trip despite the fact most of his racing has been over 7f so far. Turf debut here and should go well as long as he takes to the grass.

Form: 64733-4

White Feather⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D C Costello| T: J Hughes| OR: 70

13/2

Steps down in trip after a couple of indifferent attempts at 7f; looks no closer to getting off the mark off a handicap mark which is surely still too high.

Form: 535-576

Firenze Rosa²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: H Crouch| T: J J Bridger| OR: 69

66/1

Won off 1lb lower than this at Lingfield last season but has badly lost her way since, having beaten just one horse home in four races.

Form: 31040-7

Quick Breath¹⁹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: R Kingscote| T: J G Portman| OR: 67

3/1

Couldn't build on his novice/maiden form when down the field on handicap debut at Yarmouth last time out, and tough to see him improving on that down just 2lb.

Form: 0677-

Brockey Rise^v³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Fran Berry| T: P D Evans| OR: 63| D

7/1

Switches back to turf having been kept busy over the winter on the AW. Has plenty to find with Shovel It On based on their most recent meeting towards the end of last season.

Form: 682142

Peggie Sue¹⁸⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: J Quinn| T: A West| OR: 56

25/1

Much better on handicap debut at Kempton last time out (also AW debut). Interesting now switched back to turf remaining on the same mark as that placed effort.

Form: 70073-

Llamrei¹¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: M Dwyer| T: J Hughes| OR: 54

22/1

Remains a maiden and all the evidence so far suggests she would prefer 5f on a sounder surface than she's likely to get here.

Forecasts

Quick Breath (3/1), Shovel It On (3/1), Jeopardy John (11/2), Cloud Eight (6/1), White Feather (13/2), Brockey Rise (7/1), Achianna (10/1), Llamrei (22/1), Peggie Sue (25/1), Firenze Rosa (66/1)

SHOVEL IT ON probably ran better than was to be expected in a valuable Irish sales race last time but will definitely appreciate this ease in grade to what is a much more realistic level of competition for him. He beat Brockey Rise comprehensively there, and though that reopposing rival should run well and more obvious danger is Jeopardy John, who on the available evidence seems to prefer this trip compared to 7f.
