Ezanak^p³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Wainwright| OR: 62

66/1

Won a seller at Beverley for Michael Appleby in August but has been regressive for new connections on the Flat and over hurdles; seems an unlikely winner.

Form: 014790

Amanto^t,v¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-12| J: Dylan Hogan⁽⁵⁾| T: A Stronge| OR: 62

14/1

Four time winner but has struggled on three most recent outings including in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Fakenham; market support would be notable having won off a higher mark in the past.

Form: 34-8496

Falcon Cliffs³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A W Carroll| OR: 60

5/4

Had been knocking on the door before scoring well over 1m5f at Chelmsford on her latest start including over course and distance three starts ago; very much one to consider.

Form: 596231

Master Burbidge^p³³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: Liam Keniry| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 60| BF

15/2

Has mainly been campaigned over hurdles and this is his first appearance on the Flat for over 600 days; no slouch on his last two Flat runs at Lingfield so has chances and market support would be interesting.

Booborowie³⁷⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: George Rooke⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss M E Rowland| OR: 55| BF

66/1

Showed his well being with a recent win over hurdles at Leicester and has some fair form on the Flat from last year; hard to assess at present be clearly in good heart and should run his race.

Form: 7/93346-

(9)

Prancing Oscar^p³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 54| C

7/1

Has been fairly consistent over hurdles since mid-summer and returns to the Flat after a long break; did have some fair form up to a mile but this extra mile on the level is a step into the unknown.

Form: 69-0077

Yasir⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 9-1| J: S W Kelly| T: Mrs S Leech| OR: 51| BF| CD

9/2

Fairly consistent handicapper over a variety of trips; last win came around this time last season over 1m4f; should be there or thereabouts but win ratio is poor.

Form: 273442

Butterfield³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽³⁾| T: B Forsey| OR: 49

5/1

Exposed maiden, went close on penultimate start over course and distance before running slightly below par next time out at Kempton; chance on best of his form.

Forecasts

Falcon Cliffs (5/4), Yasir (9/2), Butterfield (5/1), Prancing Oscar (7/1), Master Burbidge (15/2), Sinndarella (8/1), Amanto (14/1), Ezanak (66/1), Booborowie (66/1)

This could go the way of veteran YASIR who showed he was still enthusiastic for the game when putting up a very useful performance last time out at Lingfield over two miles. His last win came on this surface over slightly shorter and while he does not win too often, this could be his day. Another who is consistent but does not get her head in front is Sinndarella. She certainly deserves to break her maiden tag and rarely runs a bad race at this course. Falcon Cliffs will be popular in the market following his win last time out at Chelmsford and is another who enjoys it around here.
