Sellingallthetime^p¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Theodore Ladd⁽⁷⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 68| CD

2/1

C&D winner back in the day but hasn't won for a long time (Oct 2015). Ran well in a handicap last time though and with riders claim he should be bang in the mix here once again.

Form: 2542-02

Collodi¹⁹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 9-3| J: T Eaves| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 75| CD

10/1

Hasn't been seen on the flat for almost a year. Hurdles from at the start of the winter was poor. Will appreciate this drop in grade though and has won off a break in the past. Well suited by conditions and should be tough to beat if on a going day.

Form: 54511/1-

Yes Daddy^t,v²²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 9-0| J: Callum Rodriguez⁽³⁾| T: R Stephens| OR: 68| D

8/1

Was out of form under both codes when last seen at the back end of last year. Should appreciate this drop in grade on the back of a break and conditions suit.

Form: 733/287-

(3)

Monaco Rose^h¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: Sebastian Woods⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 66| CD

7/2

Previous C&D winner that has been running ok in handicap company of late. Doesn't have an awful lot to find on the figures here and is in with an each-way shout at least.

Form: 5468-39

(1)

Be Perfect^b¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 8-11| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 74| CD

5/2

Another that has won over C&D. Out of form in handicaps the last twice but this is much easier and should be pretty tough to keep out the frame.

Form: 0-90208

(9)

Rain In The Face^t²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Nathan Evans| T: S England| OR: 60

100/1

19 race maiden under both codes and beaten a long way at Perth on final start over fences. Up against it here at the weights. First flat run for 524 days.

Form: 22890/9-

(6)

Hamelin Pool⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Shelley Birkett⁽³⁾| T: M C Chapman

250/1

Beaten 164L on most recent start over hurdles last week. Impossible to recommend in current form under these conditions.

Form: 59-06

Plastiki²⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 8-7| J: A Elliott| T: A Berry| OR: 37

250/1

Placed over 1m2f for Sir Michael Stoute in 2012 but well beaten since. Beaten 131L over C&D in a claimer last month and a similar story is likely here.

Form: 60970/9

(5)

Royal Flag^p⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 8-7| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁷⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 62| D

10/1

A winner on both turf (1m4f) and Tapeta (2m) during the early months of 2017, but has failed to recapture that form since. Well beaten here in a seller last time and needs more.

Form: 3373-84

Forecasts

Sellingallthetime (2/1), Be Perfect (5/2), Monaco Rose (7/2), Yes Daddy (8/1), Royal Flag (10/1), Collodi (10/1), Rain In The Face (100/1), Hamelin Pool (250/1), Plastiki (250/1)

Sellingallthetime is a consistent sort that has won over C&D and is a player for sure. Collodi has been off the track for a while but goes well fresh and is suited by these race conditions. A chance is taken that Richard Fahey can sneak a win out of MONACO ROSE who has been running well in handicaps of late and will appreciate this drop in grade.
