Captain Courageous^b1²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: R Kingscote| T: E F Vaughan| OR: 87| D

25/1

Three wins last year for Ed Walker at up to 1m2f, improving a total of 25lb. Faded on first start for new connections at Newmarket last month but should strip fitter and has first time blinkers applied.

Form: 41340-7

Rotherwick^t²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: P & O Cole| OR: 85

9/1

All five wins have come at around nine furlongs and this extra furlong often seems to stretch his stamina. Eased 2lb though so may get involved if things go his way.

Form: 3280-45

Garrick²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 84

15/8

Beaten just a head at Newmarket in November off 1lb lower mark and looked as though run would bring him on when third there last month. Top yard still in great form and has be on the short list.

Form: 172-3

Dream Machine²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: J P Spencer| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 84| CD

9/2

Scored twice for Michael Bell last term at 1m2f and won on debut for new connections over C&D last month on first start since wind surgery. Raised 4lb but looks sure to be thereabouts once again.

Form: 22313-1

Come On Come On³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 82| BF

13/8

Won 7f Brighton maiden and 1m Kempton novice stakes from first three starts. Favourite and beaten just a neck over C&D five weeks ago but did himself no favours hanging left throughout. Big chance if he can plough a straighter furrow.

Form: 1/P-12

Swilly Sunset²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: William Carson| T: A Carson| OR: 80| D

66/1

In cracking form last summer landing handicap four-timer at up to 1m2f but has looked in grip of the assessor since then, including in three starts this campaign. Others make far more appeal at present.

Form: 127-688

Ourmullion^b²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-4| J: Josephine Gordon| T: J R Best| OR: 68| D

33/1

Four wins on AW but just one place from six starts on turf. Not disgraced when third over 1m at Yarmouth latest and now 3lb lower but needs to up his game.

Forecasts

Come On Come On (13/8), Garrick (15/8), Dream Machine (9/2), Twenty Times (6/1), Rotherwick (9/1), Captain Courageous (25/1), Ourmullion (33/1), Swilly Sunset (66/1)

A tight-knit handicap with narrow preference for Neil Mulholland's DREAM MACHINE who scored over course and distance last time and should go well off just a 4lb higher mark. Garrick is an obvious danger having shaped as though the run would do him good at Newmarket last time, while Twenty Times will appreciate the drop back in trip and looks set to be very competitive. Come On Come On has ability and won't be far away if Adam Kirby can manage to keep him straight this time.
