Secret Lightning^v¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 54| D

11/1

At her best from 1m-1m2f, and while she ran respectably after a long break over 7f at Wolverhampton recently, the chances are she will be of more interest when racing over further.

Form: 4/8632-5

(1)

Three C's^p²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Wintle| OR: 52| D

3/1

Both wins have come win at Lingfield (7f/1m), and ran well again there in December. Shaped as if still in form there last time, and one to bear in mind from inside draw.

Form: 09125-4

(2)

Little Miss Kodi^t¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: S W Kelly| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 51| BF| D

5/1

Improved effort in finishing a neck second over this trip at Kempton early in the month, and again ran well when fourth to Tarseekh over C&D last time. Should continue in form.

Form: 667-524

(5)

Naralsaif^v¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: P Mathers| T: D Shaw| OR: 50| C| D

4/1

Rattled off an AW hat-trick early last year and took advantage of a much-reduced mark when back to winning ways at Kempton (7f) early this month. Remains on a workable mark, and shortlisted.

Form: 8000-81

(4)

Athassel¹⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 9-5| J: Katherine Begley⁽⁵⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 50| C| D

8/1

Has won eight times at 6f/7f but last success came in May 2017. Better that recent efforts would indicate, but others more convincing on balance.

Form: 072-500

(9)

Ertidaad^v¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: A Kirby| T: Emma Owen| OR: 48| CD

5/1

Not at his best since winning over C&D in December, although not disgraced on latest start over 1m2f and return to this trip could help.

Form: 3561-96

(3)

No Approval^p¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Poppy Bridgwater⁽⁵⁾| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 46

12/1

Out of sorts at present, and although he had excuses on his latest start, others bring much better credentials.

Form: 0000-88

(8)

Malaysian Boleh^b,e/s⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-1| J: Grace McEntee⁽⁷⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 45| CD

12/1

Been kept busy since winning at Brighton in June, and losing run has increased to 20, but he didn't shape at all badly over 6f at Newcastle on latest start, and longer trip within his compass.

Form: 4-94684

(6)

Only Ten Per Cent⁵⁶

Age: 11| Weight: 9-1| J: Jason Hart| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 45| D

33/1

Not the force of old, and while he may have needed the run after a break last time, it's not easy to make a strong case for him on anything he's achieved in the last year or so.

Form: 879/687-

Forecasts

Three C's (3/1), Naralsaif (4/1), Little Miss Kodi (5/1), Ertidaad (5/1), Athassel (8/1), Secret Lightning (11/1), Malaysian Boleh (12/1), No Approval (12/1), Only Ten Per Cent (33/1)

NARALSAIF landed a hat-trick around a year ago, and she bounced back to form to win a tad cosily at Kempton. She remains on a very handy mark, and is preferred to in-form pair Little Moss Kodi and Three C's.
