Tom Tulliver¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Nolan| T: D Carroll| OR: 80| D

11/2

Winner in soft groiund at Yarmouth on second start, and steadily progressive over the past 12 months; good effort on reappearance at Haydock, running on for second (5f); dro p of rain probably enhances his chance, but a player all the same.

Form: 35284-2

(2)

Wonderwork¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 80| D

4/1

Winner on debut at Thirsk last year (5f, good to soft) but below that in two subsequent starts; back with a good effort at Haydock (just behind Tom Tulliver) and chances if building on that.

Form: 100-3

(12)

Hurstwood¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: T Eaves| T: P T Midgley| OR: 79| D

22/1

Some useful form as a 2yo, highly tried a few times, but behind a few of these on his reappearance at Haydock and has a bit to prove at present. Others make a bit more appeal.

Form: 75070-7

(6)

Vardon Flyer¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Nathan Evans| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 78

16/1

Maiden after eight starts but some credible efforts to his name as a 2yo, quite highly tried at times; this a bit easier but has a bit to do to reverse form with a few of these on his Haydock reappearance run, and yard yet to really get going.

Form: 22702-9

Infinite Grace⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 76| D

20/1

Twice a winner at a lesser level as a 2yo, showing a liking for good ground; reappearance run at Newmarket can be easily forgiven, as she blew the start after rearing up; yard going well, and she may be capable of better.

Form: 21755-7

Birkenhead^p,t1¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: J L Eyre| OR: 76| D

22/1

Twice a winner already, but this will be his 14th start and he already looks a bit more exposed than a few of these; well beaten on seasonal debut at Haydock and now connections try a tongue-tie; others make more appeal.

Form: 6218-58

(4)

My Kinda Day¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: T Hamilton| T: R A Fahey| OR: 75

11/4

Steady form at a 2yo, but seemed to progress for being gelded and a wind operation on seasonal debut at Newcastle earlier in the month, almost making all (caught late after rider dropped whip); upped 6lb but likely there's more to come.

Form: 7236-2

(13)

Leapers Wood¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: P Mulrennan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 74

12/1

No win in eight starts but went close at Nottingham last August (6f, good to soft); may have needed reappearance run and should strip fitter, but yard a bit quiet, and unless some rain comes, he may find others a bit quicker.

Form: 32270-5

(3)

Vintage Times^t1¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 73| D

9/2

Winner on her third start at Ripon, but she didn't really go on from that, although she was quite highly tried; this probably more her level, and she ran perfectly well on her reappearance; chances in first time tongue-tie.

Form: 17470-4

(11)

Dandizette¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Barry McHugh| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 73| D

22/1

Twice a winner at 5f as a 2yo, both times on a sound surface and a sharp track suits her; no show on reappearance at Kempton but she will strip fitter for that, and these conditions suit, so a better effort could be expected.

Form: 21526-8

(9)

Fleeting Princess¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 71| D

25/1

Won on her debut at Yarmouth last year but she didn't progress as expected, and was most disappointing on her reappearance at Pontefract, well beaten; plenty to prove now.

Form: 1004-9

(8)

Azteca²⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: G Lee| T: B Smart| OR: 70

50/1

Placed on two of her four starts last year and would have definite chances off this mark if she could repeat her Beverley neck second last April; open to plenty of improvement and yard's horses running fine; chances on handicap debut.

Forecasts

My Kinda Day (11/4), Wonderwork (4/1), Vintage Times (9/2), Tom Tulliver (11/2), Leapers Wood (12/1), Vardon Flyer (16/1), Infinite Grace (20/1), Mews House (20/1), Birkenhead (22/1), Dandizette (22/1), Hurstwood (22/1), Fleeting Princess (25/1), Azteca (50/1)

Plenty of these have the potential to do better, and it looks a competitive little event. TOM TULLIVER ran on nicely late at Haydock, looking very much like the run had done him good and with no ground issues if the forecast rain arrives, can defy top weight here. Wonderwork wasn't far behind Tom Tulliver there and might again prove the biggest danger, with Vintage Times and My Kinda Day looking best of the rest.
