Semana Santa²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: J Fanning| T: T D Barron| OR: 56

9/4

Without a win in 12 starts on turf but goes well on the AW as proved by a fine second of 13 beaten 1¼L at Wolverhampton recently. Should be in the mix.

Form: 536902

Gaelic Wizard^p³

Age: 10| Weight: 9-1| J: Gemma Tutty⁽⁵⁾| T: K Tutty| OR: 47| CD

9/4

C&D winner back in September 2015 off a 3lb higher mark. Won a 6f contest here recently and it appears that his best form is now over that trip. Place claims on best form.

Form: 537514

Mount Hellvelyn²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Weymes| OR: 51

13/2

Well held in a number of dismal displays since April when in the care of trainer Paul Midgley including a 13½L defeat in a Beverley handicap last month on good to firm ground. Tough ask on debut for new connections.

Form: 50-7070

Lackaday^p¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Phil Dennis⁽³⁾| T: N Wilson| OR: 45| D

16/1

Losing run dates back 12-months and now races 13lb lower than his last winning mark. Plenty to prove here.

Form: 7877-90

Thornaby Princess^p²

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: Paula Muir⁽⁷⁾| T: C J Teague| OR: 45| D

14/1

Last seen in the winners enclosure at Musselburgh in September 2016 while the mare has started her last 13 races at double figure odds. Could hit the frame with conditions to suit.

Form: 099309

Minty Jones^v¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 8-13| J: Elisha Whittington⁽⁷⁾| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 45| D

16/1

Distance winner who improved on seasonal debut at Chepstow to finish 3L behind the winner Imperial Legend over C&D earlier this month. Will need to better himself once again to land a blow here.

Form: 2555-56

Raise A Billion²²

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: Callum Rodriguez⁽³⁾| T: A Berry| OR: 45| CD

9/1

C&D win was in May 2014 off a similar mark but the gelding has been out of form recently and is hard to fancy.

Form: 456/006

(10)

On The High Tops^p²

Age: 10| Weight: 8-13| J: J P Sullivan| T: C J Teague| OR: 45| D

16/1

Has gone off at 100/1 on his last two starts but not disgraced on either run finishing 3¾ at Ayr before finishing ½L behind the winner at Beverley on Tuesday. Tough ask but interesting runner.

Form: 39-7093

(5)

Redtedd²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Rachel Richardson⁽³⁾| T: E J Alston| OR: 45

20/1

Has failed to finish anything other than last position in four career starts to date including a 38L defeat earlier this month at Haydock when sent off at 125/1. Others preferred.

Forecasts

Gaelic Wizard (9/4), Semana Santa (9/4), Mount Hellvelyn (13/2), Fintry Flyer (8/1), Raise A Billion (9/1), Thornaby Princess (14/1), Minty Jones (16/1), Lackaday (16/1), On The High Tops (16/1), Redtedd (20/1)

With negatives over a number of runners here SEMANA SANTA could possibly build on her second of 13 earlier this month at Wolverhampton to land her first win on turf at the 13th time of asking. C&D winner Gaelic Wizard can give the selection the most to think about while Thornaby Princess deserves consideration at a big price for each way punters.
