Poeta Brasileiro^b¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: P Mulrennan| T: D H Brown| OR: 62

11/2

Won twice at the back end of 2018 and has run well in two starts for new yard. Down in grade and remains on an attractive mark. Rates a leading contender.

Form: 459553

Arnold^p,h²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: J Fanning| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 61| CD

6/1

Boasts very strong course form figures (01104) and now back on last winning mark here. Remains inconsistent but a probable contender down in class.

Form: 06-0204

Computable^e/s³³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Danny Redmond⁽⁵⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 61| D

8/1

Now 9lb below last win but losing sequence is adding up. Proving inconsistent this year and three poor previous runs at this track adds further concern.

Form: 4-08730

Burtonwood¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: G Lee| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 59| CD

7/1

Former C&D remains on an attractive mark at present. Has run into some nice form on his recent three visits here and after hitting the line strongly on his last two is a major hope now down in class.

Form: 905623

Archimedes^t,v⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: D C Griffiths| OR: 58| D

6/1

All three turf wins have come on very fast ground at Bath. On a good mark now and this pacey sprinter went close at Yarmouth latest. Concern is ground won't be quick enough.

Form: 034382

Astraea^b⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: G C O'Neill⁽⁵⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 52| D

9/1

Sole win came on the AW off 1lb higher in December. Form has regressed badly since and hard to be confident she's about to return to form any time soon.

Form: 040087

(12)

Oriental Splendour^b²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 51| CD

16/1

Had previously struggled to convert through his career but has won twice this campaign, both over this C&D. Remains on an attractive mark and of definite interest returning here.

Form: 619716

(2)

War Ensign^p¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Rachel Richardson| T: T D Easterby| OR: 50

11/2

Remains an 11-race maiden and running to a consistent level without improving. On a competitive mark based on his best form but that seems to be coming away from handicaps. Still a likely contender in this grade.

Form: 853253

(6)

Tick Tock Croc^h²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: R Ffrench| T: B Smart| OR: 51

9/1

Nine-race maiden has shaped well on his last two visits here but was very poor over 6f last time. Could fare better returning to this C&D but some improvement still needed.

Form: 4476-60

Storm Lightning³⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 8-7| J: C Lee| T: K Frost| OR: 45| D

16/1

Majority of his best form has come at Brighton and concern this track may not suit based on his previous visit. Still his debut third for this yard would give him possibilities on form.

Forecasts

Poeta Brasileiro (11/2), War Ensign (11/2), Archimedes (6/1), Arnold (6/1), Burtonwood (7/1), Computable (8/1), Tick Tock Croc (9/1), Astraea (9/1), Suitcase 'n' Taxi (10/1), Red Allure (12/1), Storm Lightning (16/1), Oriental Splendour (16/1), Shall We Begin (16/1), Billyoakes (25/1), Poppy Jag (25/1), Lady Joanna Vassa (25/1), Final Legacy (50/1)

Poeta Brasileiro has hit the ground running for his new stable and he's highly likely to be competitive again. BURTONWOOD turns up here for his fourth race in a row and there's a lot to like about the way his form is heading, particularly down in grade. Oriental Splendour is enjoying a good year here and a return to the track should see him involved again. Shall We Begin is well worth a market check while Arnold is unreliable but a danger down in grade.
