Big Time Maybe^t³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Paddy Bradley⁽⁵⁾| T: M J Attwater| OR: 72| D

12/1

Landed a Lingfield seller for Tom Dascombe in June after which he joined his current trainer. Last two efforts have been fair and 3lb drop in the weights offers hope.

Form: 176738

Rockies Spirit^p1¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: R Havlin| T: D P Quinn| OR: 72

4/1

Successful at Thirsk last summer, but his displays this season have failed to match that form. Hopes rest on a first-time visor having a galvanising effect.

Form: 456606

Look Surprised²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: William Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 69| BF| D

7/1

Windsor winner in August and has run with credit since. Good effort off this mark at Bath at the start of the month and looks likely to be on the premises again.

Form: 211373

Kath's Lustre²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 69| C

8/1

Two wins from nine starts on the AW, but found 7f stretching her stamina at Lingfield on latest outing. Down 1lb and is considered, but both victories have come over 6f.

Form: 595428

Angel of The South^p1¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Winston| T: D K Ivory| OR: 68| CD

8/1

Landed a novice event over C&D in February, but latest unplaced efforts have been poor. Cheekpieces are fitted for the first time and 4lb lower mark should help.

Form: 327980

It's All A Joke^b³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽⁵⁾| T: A Watson| OR: 67

2/1

Irish import who has shaped well on both outings over 6f for his new trainer. Only win came over 6f, but he has form over the minimum trip and is one to consider.

Form: 243025

Impart^v²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Liam Jones| T: Mrs L J Mongan| OR: 63| D

7/1

In fine form with victories on his last two starts. Climbing the weights, but has to go on the short list in his current mood.

Form: 542211

Fareeq^b,t¹⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Jason Watson| T: C Wallis| OR: 62| C| D

14/1

Not at his best at Wolverhampton last time, but had previously run well at Salisbury and Southwell. Likes this course and is feasibly weighted.

Form: 147248

Awsaaf^h²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: F Norton| T: M Wigham| OR: 60

40/1

Three disappointing displays since joining current trainer from Simon Crisford's stable. Quite lightly raced, however, and has dropped to a career-low mark.

Form: 449-909

Forecasts

It's All A Joke (2/1), Lalania (11/4), Rockies Spirit (4/1), Look Surprised (7/1), Impart (7/1), Angel of The South (8/1), Kath's Lustre (8/1), Wiff Waff (10/1), Big Time Maybe (12/1), Fareeq (14/1), Nautical Haven (20/1), Awsaaf (40/1)

Impart is in the form of his life and has to be considered, but the handicapper has not let his recent victories go unpunished and marginal preference is for LALANIA, who looks slightly the better of two representatives from her stable. Look Surprised is likely to be involved, Kath's Lustre can go well despite this trip being on the short side and any support for bottom-weight Awsaaf would be interesting. It's All A Joke could also figure.
