11/8

Victorious at up to an extended 1m2f in Germany. Well beaten over an extended 1m2f in an AW contest at Pornichet-La-Baule in August and worth a check in the market on debut for this yard.

Form: 2516/10-

14/1

Winner of a C&D handicap under this rider in December but finished well held in an amateur riders contest here the following month. Interesting to see how he fares off a mark 2lb higher than for that latest success.

Form: 21801-9

Smiley Bagel¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: R Kingscote| T: E Walker| OR: 68| CD

11/2

Successful three times from eight starts here but out of form in recent starts including when tenth of 12 at Kempton (1m4f) last month. Market support would be notable off a mark 2lb lower than for his most recent success.

Form: 140-460

Makambe⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Joey Haynes| T: P Howling| OR: 68

8/1

Good 2L fourth in a 1m2f handicap here at the end of January. Respectable effort when beaten 4L here subsequently but failed to convince on his only previous attempt at this distance.

Form: 584-746

Presence Process⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Paddy Bradley⁽³⁾| T: P Phelan| OR: 64| C

13/2

Returned from a break with a good third over this C&D in December. Put a below par effort behind him when 2L sixth back here last time out and races off a mark 3lb higher than when winning over 1m2f here last April.

Form: 7653-96

Sotomayor³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Tom Marquand| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 64| CD

10/1

Winner of a C&D handicap just over 12 months ago but disappointing in the main since and debuts for this yard having pulled up over hurdles at Kempton in January.

Freebe Rocks^p⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: K T O'Neill| T: Ian Williams| OR: 62| C

6/1

Step up in distance appeared to suit when fourth over 1m2f here in January. Has won off higher marks over shorter in the past and he is worth a check in the market stepping up in distance.

Form: 83209-4

Forecasts

King's Advice (11/8), Smiley Bagel (11/2), Freebe Rocks (6/1), Presence Process (13/2), Makambe (8/1), Sotomayor (10/1), Mouchee (14/1)

FREEBE ROCKS can register a victory on his first attempt at this distance by taking what looks a competitive small field handicap. King's Advice, a winner in Germany has joined a top yard and he can claim second place ahead of Presence Process who wasn't beaten far here last time out.
