Crime Of Passion²¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Nicola Currie| T: J A Osborne| OR: 65| D

25/1

Made a winning nursery debut at Ffos Las (5f, good to soft) in August; not the most consistent but has been eased a couple of pounds and has a fair draw.

Form: 713047-

Saras Hope¹⁰⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: J Gallagher| OR: 65

12/1

Held in all three starts in novice/maiden company, but did show promise in the second of those, when third over 6f at Nottingham last June; well held on only handicap start and may struggle off current mark.

Form: 638-5

Twice As Likely¹⁰⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: S Donohoe| T: R Hughes| OR: 64

12/1

Generally a consistent sprinter who rarely finishes too far away; fairly exposed now and possibly vulnerable to a few lightly-raced types; solid place chance however.

Form: 45304-4

Rathagan¹⁰²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 63| BF

11/2

Generally runs his race but overall suspicion is that this minimum trip will be on the short side for him; difficult to rule out totally but others probably have a better chance at the weights.

Form: 52674-4

Street Life^v⁸⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: T Hamilton| T: R A Fahey| OR: 63| D

5/2

Hat-trick seeking gelding who improved plenty on his Newcastle win in March when following up eight days later; no reason why he can't run well again and has a good draw to race prominently as he likes.

Form: 54-3411

(5)

Pretty Lady¹⁹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Connor Beasley| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 61

5/2

Fairly consistent filly who reserved her best for her latest outing at Chelmsford in November when only beaten 1l into 5th place; likely to improve and one to take note of from powerful stable.

Form: 5555-

Bartat²²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: K T O'Neill| T: M R Channon| OR: 61| D

14/1

Won a nursery at Brighton in August but subsequently struggled off her revised mark:; difficult to see her being in contention off current mark unless she has wintered particularly well; worth a market check.

Form: 316750-

Comeatchoo⁹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Josephine Gordon| T: P S McEntee| OR: 57| D

10/1

Tough and usually consistent gelding who raced a remarkable 23 times in his debut year; possibly a little high in the weights but should run his race and has place claims at the very least.

Form: 412333

(9)

Lady Celia²⁵²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Shane Gray| T: R A Fahey| OR: 57

33/1

More consistent than her form figures and finishing positions suggests; has been given a chance by the handicapper here and if she has improved over the winter she could go well at a fair price.

Form: 49588-

Forecasts

Street Life (5/2), Pretty Lady (5/2), Ice Ice Lady (9/2), Rathagan (11/2), Comeatchoo (10/1), Twice As Likely (12/1), Saras Hope (12/1), Bartat (14/1), Crime Of Passion (25/1), Lady Celia (33/1)

With the stable in great form, it would be no surprise to see ICE ICE LADY returning to the winner's enclosure for Archie Watson. The filly scored over course and distance on her debut before running a better race in defeat next time out. She has scope for improvement and may prove too strong for her rivals. Lady Celia is a consistent filly who has been given a chance by the handicapper. If on top of her game expect a big run. Pretty Lady ran her best race last time out and while more improvement is needed it is possible she could be in the shake up.
