Bird For Life^p¹²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Isobel Francis⁽⁷⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 66| CD

50/1

Lost her way since an AW success at Wolverhampton in the summer and she's better over further than this; wide draw and others preferred.

Form: 213048-

Fronsac²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Adam J McNamara| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 64| BF

8/1

Still a maiden after 10 runs and disappointing despite some market support on each of his last two starts; others preferred.

Form: 8544-57

(7)

Ballydoyle²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: H Crouch| T: G & J Moore| OR: 62

12/1

French recruit who wasn't disgraced over hurdles on yard debut at Plumpton last month; this is a very different test though back down in trip and doesn't look particularly well-handicapped.

Form: 272264-

(9)

Crimson King^v⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: George Rooke⁽⁵⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 63

7/2

Yet to win in 16 starts but has been running well on AW since joining this outfit; yard have just gone a little quiet in recent weeks for their own high stands in the winter but a repeat of his run at Lingfield last time should see him thereabouts.

Form: 24-2353

(5)

Double Legend^b¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: R Havlin| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 62| CD

11/2

Gained compensation for a narrow defeat when winning over C&D last month but beaten a long way from his revised mark here last time out; type to bounce back but others may be better handicapped.

Form: 08-5214

Herm³²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: P J McDonald| T: P D Evans| OR: 59| BF| D

14/1

Won back-to-back races at Wolverhampton earlier in the campaign but signs the handicapper has caught up with him in more recent starts; seen to good effect when coming off a strong pace at Lingfield last time and needs improvement.

Form: 8110-23

(11)

Dinsdale^p,t⁶²

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: S W Kelly| T: M Scudamore| OR: 57WS

50/1

A winner over hurdles/fences back in 2018; missed all of last year and beaten a long way on return at Lingfield; drawn wide and others preferred.

Form: 48354/0

(6)

Songo^h⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Finley Marsh⁽³⁾| T: M F Harris| OR: 53| C| D

11/10

Won his first two starts in Germany and made light work of his opening handicap mark here last week; extra furlong in trip won't be an issue and obvious claims under a penalty here.

Form: 113-1

(2)

Incredible Dream^p¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 8-7| J: M Dwyer| T: C Allen| OR: 48| D

33/1

Pulled up over hurdles last time out and really struggling on the Flat when last seen in this sphere; no wins since 2017 and others preferred.

Form: 884560-

Embrace The Moment⁹

Weight: 9-6| Age: 4

(8)

Henry Croft⁴⁵

Weight: 9-4| Age: 7

T: A W Carroll J: Tom Marquand

Forecasts

Songo (11/10), Crimson King (7/2), Double Legend (11/2), Embrace The Moment (6/1), Fronsac (8/1), Ballydoyle (12/1), Herm (14/1), Henry Croft (14/1), Incredible Dream (33/1), Dinsdale (50/1), Bird For Life (50/1)

SONGO can capitalise under a penalty after an impressive course success last week and he's the obvious pick on just his second UK start. Crimson King wasn't far away last time and is another to consider while Embrace The Moment will be well suited by a step up in trip.
