Essenaitch¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: C Lee| T: P D Evans| OR: 57| C

20/1

No win since June 2018 (1m2f, Chepstow) and twice well beaten over hurdles in recent months; look elsewhere.

Form: 353935-

Arabian King^t¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: J Ferguson| OR: 57| BF

9/2

Reasonably unexposed after just six starts; ran on to take second place on debut for James Ferguson at Lingfield (1m2f) 12 days ago; dam Barshiba was a Group 2 winner (1m-1m4f); worth chancing in a weak race.

Form: 6/0665-2

Frame Rate^p¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: P Mulrennan| T: I Jardine| OR: 53

7/1

Flat maiden (0-10); returned from a stint over hurdles with a surprise 33-1 second at Newcastle (1m4½f) 13 days ago; a repeat (certainly isn't guaranteed) would give him a realistic chance.

Form: 8/2590-2

About Glory^p⁹²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: S R Bowring| OR: 53

14/1

Won twice for Iain Jardine at Bath (1m2f, firm) during September 2019; sits higher in the weights as a result on debut for Roy Bowring (bought for £3,000 in December 2019).

Strict^p¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 56

11/2

Eight-race maiden; low-key since finishing third on handicap debut (for Andrew Balding) at Newbury (1m, good to soft) in June 2019; effectiveness on Fibresand open to discussion; stablemate of Vale Of Rock.

Form: 63806-5

Going Native¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Rhona Pindar⁽⁷⁾| T: Olly Williams| OR: 51| CD

14/1

Poor strike-rate (1-28 on the AW); folded quickly from the home turn in a difficult to fathom race (result wise) over 1m6f here a fortnight ago; will need to do better in order to trouble Tyrsal.

Form: 7283-35

(14)

Telekinetic^h²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A W Carroll| OR: 51| C

7/2

Previously with Julia Fielden; broke her duck on just her second start for Tony Carroll when winning a porous looking Class 6 classified stakes here (1m3f) 25 days ago; a subsequent 3lb rise is more than enough.

Form: 82527-1

Ateescomponent¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Phil Dennis| T: T D Barron| OR: 53

9/2

Seven-race maiden; was returning from a break when a distant 40-1 second to the handicap blot Foresee at Newcastle (1m4½f) a fortnight ago; may progress for that run; Fibresand debut.

Form: 06000-2

Tyrsal^p¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 8-13| J: Grace McEntee⁽⁷⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 47| C| D

16/1

Game winner over 1m6f here recently (somehow reversing placings with Cold Harbour, Princess Harley and Going Native et al); has since left the care of Shaun Keightley to join Phil McEntee; can't be dismissed.

Form: 45846-1

Noble Gesture^e/s1²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: L McJannet| OR: 46

100/1

Returned to the track following a mammoth absence at Chelmsford (1m) three weeks ago - tailed-off last of 14; eye-shields are now applied to this ex-Jane Chapple-Hyam trained runner; makes no appeal whatsoever.

Form: 03400/0

Vale Of Rock^h¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-12| J: Theodore Ladd⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 45

100/1

Maiden (0-10); was having her first start since October 2016 when beaten miles (eighth of nine) in a C&D novice (50-1) 17 days ago; very unappealing stablemate of Strict.

Form: 99067/8

(5)

Face Like Thunder^b,e/s²³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Dylan Hogan⁽³⁾| T: J Butler| OR: 45

22/1

A regular over 1m here this winter (form figures 43343); one-paced third to Palazzo in a Class 6 classified stakes latest; 1-23 career; has nothing to lose by trying 1m4f (brother to a 2m-2m1f hurdle winner).

Form: 7433-43

(8)

Clubora²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Georgia Dobie⁽⁵⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 45

28/1

Seven-race maiden (ex-Richard Hannon); 25-1 when finishing in the midfield on debut for Eve Johnson Houghton at Chelmsford (1m2f) four weeks ago; definite stamina reservations over 1m4f.

Telekinetic (7/2), Arabian King (9/2), Ateescomponent (9/2), Strict (11/2), Frame Rate (7/1), Bolt N Brown (10/1), Going Native (14/1), About Glory (14/1), Tyrsal (16/1), Essenaitch (20/1), Face Like Thunder (22/1), Clubora (28/1), Vale Of Rock (100/1), Noble Gesture (100/1)

A winnable contest in which the vast majority are thoroughly exposed. Tyrsal turned the form book on it's head when winning over 1m6f here recently (holds Going Native) and has since switched stables. Ateescomponent was no match for a handicap blot (Foresee) at Newcastle a fortnight ago, but there was a ray of light shown and he could progress in terms of fitness if handling the Fibresand surface. However, the suggested advice is to take a chance on the stamina reserves of ARABIAN KING. He ran creditably on debut for James Ferguson (Lingfield) and has Luke Morris back in the saddle with confidence taken from his pedigree (dam Barshiba won over 1m4f).
