Myklachi¹⁶⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 66

14/1

Showed promise in his debut effort over this trip in a maiden at Newcastle but well beaten twice since, virtually tailed off. Makes turf debut from a lowly mark on handicap debut and one to note in the market here.

Form: 480-

Toro Dorado^b²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 65

7/4

Yet to win in eight starts but wasn't too far away at Kempton in November, despite being slowly away. His tendency to be slow to break has scuppered his chance twice since but appears to be on a workable mark.

Form: 05725-4

Anna Bunina²⁰⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 61

7/2

Has gone off at big prices on each of her four starts but has shown ability the last couple of times, most recently when sixth of 12 at Redcar in September. Likely to do better this year and interesting if ready to go on reappearance.

Form: 8846-

Lady Lavinia²⁰⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Nathan Evans| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 61| C

12/1

Just one win from nine starts and that came in selling company here over 7f. Hit and miss subsequently but likely to have one in her off this sort of handicap mark; needs a decent pace to aim at.

Blazing Dreams^p¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 61| D

4/1

Has really found some form of late, last seen winning under a penalty at Newcastle last time out. Could be more to come at this trip now and rates as an interesting runner on his return to turf.

Form: 473-311

(7)

Kodi Dream¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Ben Sanderson⁽⁵⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 58

9/1

Just one win from 12 starts and doesn't look the most straightforward sort (can race keenly and be slow to break). Very disappointing at Newcastle last time and has a bit to prove now.

Form: 814440

(5)

Separable^b1²⁰⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Rachel Richardson| T: T D Easterby| OR: 55

14/1

Beaten at big prices on each of his three starts as a juvenile. Markedly up in trip for handicap debut and given a nice handicap mark so no surprise to see market improve in first-time blinkers for a yard in excellent form.

Form: 969-

Northern Footsteps²³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Jamie Gormley⁽³⁾| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 45

40/1

Beaten out of sight in each of her three starts as a juvenile, including when stepped up to this trip last time out at Thirsk. Out the handicap and has plenty to prove.

Good Looker²⁰⁸

Forecasts

Toro Dorado (7/4), Anna Bunina (7/2), Blazing Dreams (4/1), Kodi Dream (9/1), Lady Lavinia (12/1), Myklachi (14/1), Separable (14/1), Good Looker (14/1), Northern Footsteps (40/1)

BLAZING DREAMS could be hard to beat in his hat-trick bid if he can prove himself to be as good on turf. Good Looker is a handicap debutante who could improve now his stamina will be brought in to play while Tim Easterby's yard is flying and Separable wouldn't be one to rule out in first-time headgear.
