Count Otto^b,h¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds⁽³⁾| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 86| D

3/1

Application of blinkers (retained) appeared to suit when finishing runner-up in a four runner contest over 6f at Windsor (good-to-firm) last time out. Interesting dropping in trip.

11/8

Winner of a novice stakes in first time blinkers (retained since) over 6f at Windsor (good-to-firm) last month. Good second in a competitive Newmarket handicap subsequently and one for the shortlist.

Joegogo¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Nicola Currie⁽³⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 80| D

12/1

Kept busy so far in 2018 and generally runs his race. Finished a fair fourth over 5f at Newmarket (good-to-firm) last time and likely more needed if he's to take this contest.

3/1

Broke her maiden at the eighth time of asking when winning over 6f at Leicester (good-to-firm) recently. Races off a 5lb higher mark here and one to note for a yard in good form (5/22) of late.

Forecasts

Rebel Streak (11/8), Procedure (3/1), Count Otto (3/1), Little Boy Blue (8/1), Three Little Birds (8/1), Joegogo (12/1)

Last time out winner PROCEDURE remains open to improvement and can defy a 5lb rise in the weights to take this sprint handicap. Rebel Streak ran well in a better race last time and can finish runner-up ahead of Count Otto who is dropping in distance.
