Be Bold^b⁵¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: David Probert| T: Rebecca Bastiman| OR: 45

16/1

Experienced performer who has won five of his 62 races, all of them on turf. Record of 0-20 on AW surfaces tempers enthusiasm, although he did run well to be second at Wolverhampton two starts ago.

Form: 366-520

Casey Banter¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Scott McCullagh⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 50

15/2

Only victory came in a 7f selling handicap at Yarmouth, but has shown she can act on the AW and was a close 3rd of 11 at Chelmsford last summer. Should be sharper for recent return to action at that venue.

Form: 82130-8

(3)

Dawn Commando^b²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: A Kirby| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 46

13/8

Quite lightly-raced gelding who ran well to be second of 12 under this jockey in a C&D handicap earlier this month. Needs to take another step forward to win this, but that is not beyond the realms of possibility.

Form: 60-0762

(12)

Herringswell^p²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Dylan Hogan⁽⁵⁾| T: H Spiller| OR: 50

20/1

Winner on turf at Yarmouth, but is 0-7 on the AW. Not out of this on the pick of her form and ran respectably in a C&D handicap last time.

Form: 35-7075

(2)

More Salutes^p1²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Rob Hornby| T: M J Attwater| OR: 48

6/1

Unplaced in seven starts, but has shown definite signs of ability and his official rating offers hope in this company, particularly if first-time cheekpieces have a positive effect.

Form: 858-857

(10)

Red Cossack^b²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: R Winston| T: D K Ivory| OR: 45| C

11/2

Only one win in 35 starts, but at least it was achieved at this venue. Fair efforts on the AW since the turn of the year, but overall profile suggests he will be doing well to win this.

Form: 5-56344

(9)

Sir Lancelott^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 44| D

12/1

Winner of five races, four of them on the AW. Recent efforts have been respectable enough, but his losing sequence is building up,

Form: 445306

(7)

Stay In The Light⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: K T O'Neill| T: R Ingram| OR: 44

20/1

Maiden after 18 races, but has shown glimmers of promise. Recent efforts have been disappointing, however, so probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 8066-80

(4)

Twistsandturns⁵⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Mark Crehan⁽⁷⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 38| D

150/1

Won four times on the AW at Dundalk when trained in Ireland, but has shown little since coming to this country. Looks to be up against it even in this ordinary company.

Form: 0074/08

(11)

Angel Black¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Josephine Gordon| T: S L Keightley| OR: 50

33/1

Little show in three AW novice events. May do better in handicaps and is probably best watched on this occasion.

Form: 780

(8)

Isabella Red³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: H Crouch| T: P D Evans| OR: 47

25/1

Unplaced in seven races, five of them on the AW. The visor she wore when well held at Wolverhampton last time is ditched and she needs to show much more if she is to figure.

Form: 980-899

(6)

Push Back^p1⁸⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: E J Walsh| T: George Scott| OR: 48

14/1

Little to get excited about in three AW runs in novice company for George Peckham, latterly in blinkers which are dispensed with in favour of cheekpieces. Hard to make a case for on debut for this stable.

Form: 80-0

Forecasts

Dawn Commando (13/8), Red Cossack (11/2), More Salutes (6/1), Casey Banter (15/2), Sir Lancelott (12/1), Push Back (14/1), Be Bold (16/1), Stay In The Light (20/1), Herringswell (20/1), Isabella Red (25/1), Angel Black (33/1), Twistsandturns (150/1)

Hardly a race to set the pulse racing, but official ratings suggest there are a quite a few likely contenders and the best of them may be DAWN COMMANDO, who ran well in a C&D handicap earlier this month and need only improve a little to have a big say. The dangers are headed by Herringswell, More Salutes and Casey Banter.
