Intrepidly^p³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Cieren Fallon⁽⁷⁾| T: C Fellowes| OR: 86| BF

7/2

Improved effort in first-time cheekpieces on stable debut. Rider good value for his claim and now needs to prove he is better than he showed last time.

Form: 6804-29

Samphire Coast^h,t1,v⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: P Mathers| T: D Shaw| OR: 82| CD

11/4

Seven-time winner who had Intrepidly behind at Kempton three starts ago. Continues to hold his form well but he has never won off a mark above 80.

Able Jack²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 80| CD

7/1

Landed a very good class 3 event over C&D in March 2018 off 4lb higher under today's rider. Got trapped wide here last time but appeared to be coming to hand on his previous start so hard to rule out.

Form: 190-670

7/4

Winning sequence ended on the Southwell Fibresand. Whilst it is possible to blame the surface for that effort he still has plenty to prove up in this grade off a significantly tougher mark.

Form: 111119

Come On Tier¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: L Morris| T: D M Simcock| OR: 73| D

8/1

Has failed to build on his juvenile success but there were some positive signs at the turn of the year. Last three runs have been disappointing, however yard have been doing better lately.

Forecasts

Lion Hearted (7/4), Arabian Jazz (9/4), Samphire Coast (11/4), Intrepidly (7/2), Able Jack (7/1), Come On Tier (8/1)

It is hard to be convinced by any of these but ABLE JACK is excused his latest run and looks exceptionally well-treated on his C&D victory last year when beating a much better field than this. Lion Hearted saw his winning run halted last time but may be seen to better effect on this faster surface, whilst Intrepidly looked as though he would soon be winning following his stable debut, although he was a huge disappointment next time. A bigger danger may come from Come On Tier who is nicely weighted on his first couple of starts in 2019 and who may rebound from his last three starts with his yard in much better form.
