Divine Connection¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Tyler Saunders⁽⁵⁾| T: J G Portman| OR: 62| BF

7/1

Maiden filly but getting over closer and beaten just ¾L into third over this trip at Kempton latest. 2lb rise keeps the pressure on but a bold bid looks assured.

Form: 676543

Bavardages²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 62

9/4

Improved effort latest upped to 7f for handicap debut where he scored at Kempton. 3lb rise lenient and expected to improve again for extra 1f in atypical style for this yard.

Form: 5051

(8)

Rochford^p¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: R Kingscote| T: H Spiller| OR: 60

4/1

Made the frame in last three AW starts here, at Newcastle and at Kempton before flopping on heavy turf going last time. Willing to forgive that so expect him in the thick of things again now.

Form: 353239

Chateau Peapod^p¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: B Doyle| T: Mrs L Pearce| OR: 57

6/1

Nine-race maiden but second over this trip at Kempton latest as she was over C&D in September. 3lb rise for latest looks a little harsh but still expect her to make presence felt.

Form: 426532

Prairie Moppins¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽³⁾| T: S Kirk| OR: 56

14/1

Some promise about third start here over 7f but well held by re-opposing rivals latest on handicap bow at Kempton over 1m so has to improve.

Form: 0940

Boy George⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Liam Keniry| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 55

14/1

Slight progress in midfield Wolverhampton run latest but still be a surprise if he makes the frame here.

Form: 06406

Loco Dempsey²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen⁽⁵⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 52

14/1

Yet to get seriously competitive in four career starts over 6f or 1m (two tries over each trip). Others preferred.

Form: 0679

Sea of Cool^p¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: J Ryan| OR: 50

16/1

Showed next to nothing so relatively in-descript fifth of eight on handicap bow at Nottingham latest not a great surprise. Plenty to prove at this stage.

Form: 4505

(13)

Dark Side Division^p⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: Laura Pearson⁽⁷⁾| T: J Ryan| OR: 48

33/1

Tailed off latest at Wolverhampton and having shown little in previous races the gelding is easy to pass over here.

Form: 486760

Halfacrown¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: N Mackay| T: J A Osborne| OR: 46

6/1

Third at Newcastle two back promising and although he was behind a couple of these in sixth at Kempton last time he was short of room in the straight and now better off at the weights with each. Each-way claims.

Form: 565736

Loretta Lass²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Liam Jones| T: A West| OR: 46

50/1

Remote 11th of 13 at Kempton latest continued underwhelming run of form going and she has plenty to prove at this stage still.

Form: 8950

(6)

Sooty's Return⁵⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: Theodore Ladd| T: J S Moore| OR: 45

50/1

Last of 13 at Kempton latest and having beaten only four rivals combined in as many starts he's tough to fancy here.

Form: 7680

Forecasts

Bavardages (9/4), Rochford (4/1), Halfacrown (6/1), Chateau Peapod (6/1), Divine Connection (7/1), Prairie Moppins (14/1), Boy George (14/1), Loco Dempsey (14/1), Bright Spells (14/1), Sea of Cool (16/1), Dark Side Division (33/1), Sooty's Return (50/1), Loretta Lass (50/1)

Recent Kempton winner BAVARDAGES looks the one to side with here having improved for an extra 1f latest as he gets another 1f upping today. Consistent sorts Divine Connection and Rochford look the biggest dangers with the latter's latest run on heavy turf forgotten given earlier EW form.
