(8)

Lady Alavesa^p²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 67

11/4

In good form in selling and claiming company and transferred that form to handicaps when one place behind Sweet Nature at Chelmsford. Should be competitive again.

Form: 611223-

(3)

Mrs Benson³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: M Blanshard| OR: 67

7/1

Nine-race maiden has four thirds to her name but has proved hard to predict so far. Has dropped to a dangerous mark so could be involved if at her best.

Form: 303793-

(2)

Dashing Poet²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Charles Bishop| T: H Main| OR: 65| CD

13/8

Former C&D winner and gained a fourth career AW win at Southwell last time. May have more to offer on fibresand in due course but only 1lb higher and no reason she shouldn't be involved again.

Form: 022601-

(6)

Bubbly⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: S Donohoe| T: C Fellowes| OR: 64

3/1

Remains a maiden after seven starts and has tended to be slowly away and find trouble early. Disappointed at Chelmsford latest and this is tougher.

Form: 32582-5

Spiced^p¹⁰⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Philip Prince| T: R J Hodges| OR: 62| BF

20/1

Seven-race maiden for William Haggas and took a long time to get going over further when last seen in October. May need a change of headgear in due course and one to watch on stable debut.

Form: 845234-

(5)

Peace Prevails¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Charlie Bennett| T: J R Boyle| OR: 60

25/1

Has dropped 6lb lower than her sole win for Ed Vaughan but has been well below that level in five starts for her new stable and hard to make a case for at present.

Form: 504800-

(4)

Black Lace^p³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-2| J: Nicola Currie| T: S Woodman| OR: 45

33/1

Has struggled to make any sort of impression in 10 starts so far and hard to fancy from out of the handicap.

Form: 850065-

Sweet Nature²

Weight: 9-7| Age: 4

Forecasts

Dashing Poet (13/8), Sweet Nature (5/2), Lady Alavesa (11/4), Bubbly (3/1), Mrs Benson (7/1), Spiced (20/1), Peace Prevails (25/1), Black Lace (33/1)

There's enough pace amongst her rivals to think that SWEET NATURE will get a stronger pace to quicken off than last time and can prevail on this quick reappearance. Lady Alavesa will find it tough to reverse the form with her rival but is consistent and can be placed again while Dashing Poet is also in form coming off the back of a win and goes well here.
