Percy Prosecco³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: A Kirby| T: Noel Williams| OR: 60

9/2

Fit from hurdling and a good third at Kempton over two miles when last seen on the Flat in February. Drop in trip should help and possibilities.

Form: 32613-3

Ripplet¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Charlie Bennett| T: H Morrison| OR: 60

16/1

Bumper winner on debut but her form has gone steadily backwards since. Tailed-off on Flat handicap debut and remains best watched.

Form: 4560

Master Grey³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Charles Bishop| T: B R Millman| OR: 60| CD

7/2

Sole win came off this mark in a three-runner contest over this C&D. Out of form on return and would prefer testing conditions.

Form: 23258-0

Calvinist^p¹²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: J Mitchell| T: K Frost| OR: 58| D

12/1

Generally consistent without being the force of old since joining this yard until a poor run at Wolverhampton in December. Could probably do with a bit of an ease in the weights but place possibilities if bouncing back on return.

Form: 212520-

Prince Charmin'^p,t⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 58

11/2

Tough ask over hurdles latest but went close over this trip on last run on the Flat on the AW in December. Remains on a competitive mark and can be involved.

Form: 4/57064-

Sellingallthetime^v³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Gary Mahon⁽³⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 56

25/1

Just four wins from 57 starts and losing run now stretches back to October 2015. Out of form on recent stable debut and hard to fancy.

Form: 52-8959

Folies Bergeres^b²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: T E Whelan| T: G Harris| OR: 56

40/1

Sole win came in a maiden and has produced a real mixed bag of form of late. Others look more reliable candidates.

Form: 620-046

Thresholdofadream⁷⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: P J Dobbs| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 55

7/1

Followed a close third over two miles at Lingfield with a breakthrough win over the same C&D. Needs to transfer that form to turf and drop in trip a slight negative but open to improvement still.

Form: 043-031

Earthly^p,t¹⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: S Donohoe| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 52| BF

14/1

Yet to add to two early wins for Ralph Beckett and has looked better on the AW to date. Vulnerable back on turf.

Form: 532329-

Tilsworth Sammy³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Tom Marquand| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 51

10/1

Seven-race maiden but definite promise and some improvement in last three starts over two miles at Lingfield. Turf debut an unknown but has a race of this nature in him.

Form: 364-582

Vlannon¹⁰³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Liam Keniry| T: M Madgwick| OR: 51

10/1

Unplaced in previous seven Flat starts but a winner over hurdles this winter. Has the potential to improve back on the Flat and holds possibilities.

Form: 746449-

Oborne Lady⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 8-9| J: Rob Hornby| T: J W Mullins| OR: 48

12/1

14-race maiden under all codes and four starts this year have been underwhelming. Very hard to make a case for.

Forecasts

Master Grey (7/2), Percy Prosecco (9/2), Heron (5/1), Prince Charmin' (11/2), Argyle (6/1), Thresholdofadream (7/1), Vlannon (10/1), Tilsworth Sammy (10/1), Oborne Lady (12/1), Calvinist (12/1), Earthly (14/1), Ripplet (16/1), Sellingallthetime (25/1), Folies Bergeres (40/1)

Tilsworth Sammy shouldn't be dismissed at likely decent odds while Prince Charmin' is on a good mark returning to the Flat. HERON took a while to get off the mark but did so in the style of one who could now kick on.
