11/4

Prolific winner on the AW though makes debut at this venue. Has had some stiff tasks of late and will appreciate this drop down to a more realistic grade.

5/2

Ex Irish gelding who was bought for 17,000 gns in November though back with a trainer who won races with him in the past. Found trip too sharp last time and has run very well in defeat in two previous runs here.

Made Of Honour^p1¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 78| D

7/1

Rattled off a hat-trick last winter but not in the same form in three runs since including when well backed in a better class contest last time. Something to prove at present and now tries cheek pieces.

Portledge^b³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: J Fanning| T: J D Bethell| OR: 78| CD

9/4

No surprise that 6f was too sharp on latest and his win at this trip on penultimate start was a truer refection of his ability. Claims in a trappy finale.

Form: 736010-

Andalusite^v¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-3| J: A Mullen| T: J Gallagher| OR: 62| D

40/1

Front-runner who has struggled since Brighton win in August and will need to bounce back to her very best to take this.

Form: 504079-

Supreme Power^p⁶¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-3| J: L Morris| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 62| CD

14/1

Sole win in 10 visits to this track was in July but is 8lb above that mark and likely to find this 0-80 grade beyond him.

Forecasts

Portledge (9/4), Fuwairt (5/2), Call Out Loud (11/4), Made Of Honour (7/1), Supreme Power (14/1), Andalusite (40/1)

CALL OUT LOUD should welcome this drop in grade and is preferred to Portledge who has his optimum trip in his favour. Made Of Honour needs to bounce back to her best but the money for her last time was significant.
