The Daley Express¹⁸³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: F Norton| T: R Harris| OR: 84| D

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 79| D

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: R Havlin| T: Mark Loughnane| OR: 76| D

10/1

Promising sixth over 6f at Lingfield earlier this month when returning from a break. Drop in distance should suit and market support would be notable in this contest.

Smokey Lane¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Gina Mangan⁽⁷⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 75| C

16/1

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Rob Hornby| T: A M Balding| OR: 75| CD

Enthaar^t¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S C Williams| OR: 74

4/1

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: George Wood| T: C F Wall| OR: 74

12/1

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: Hollie Doyle| T: R J Price| OR: 73| D

Harry Beau^v¹²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: J P Fahy| T: P D Evans| OR: 71

Peggie Sue¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Nicola Currie| T: A West| OR: 69| D

50/1

Form: 11386-0

Forecasts

Enthaar (4/1), King Robert (9/2), Fair Cop (5/1), The Daley Express (7/1), Puds (7/1), Big Lachie (10/1), Han Solo Berger (12/1), Miracle Works (12/1), Smokey Lane (16/1), Bellevarde (25/1), Harry Beau (33/1), Pettochside (33/1), Peggie Sue (50/1)

PUDS returned to form when winning last time out and she is taken to follow-up that success with a victory in this competitive sprint handicap. Fair Cop showed she retains plenty of ability when returning at Newcastle last month and she can take second from a good draw while third place can go the way of King Robert who has won twice on the AW in recent times.
