Clockers Corner^b1²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 76| D

11/8

Disappointing in two starts since joining this yard, and finished last on the AW at Lingfield (7f; standard to slow) most recently. This is easier, but he doesn't come out particularly well at these weights so is up against it.

Form: 8310-90

Go Well Spicy¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: D C Costello| T: T J FitzGerald| OR: 69| D

13/2

Three-time winner last year, but in nothing like that form since returning to action this year running very poorly on each occasion most recently at Ripon (1m; good). Slight ease in class should help but certainly not one to pin hopes upon.

Form: 771-080

Know No Limits^p1¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Jane Elliott| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 81| D

11/10

Smart two-year-old who takes a steep drop in grade after finishing last of nine at Chelmsford (7f; standard) in a competitive handicap last time out. Highest rated of these and is getting 11lb of her nearest rival. Should win.

Form: 9228-79

(5)

Luvi's Little Bro⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Phil Dennis| T: Mrs Marjorie Fife

100/1

Debut effort when a distant 13th of 14 over C&D last week means there is little to enthuse over with him. Yard haven't had a winner for almost a year now (78 runners during that time). Extremely hard to fancy.

Form: 0

Jackate^p1¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Ben Robinson| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 53

20/1

Regressed after showing promise for this yard on debut last year. Three duck eggs beside his name after a string of disappointing efforts, including when he was last of 13 at Thirsk (1m; good) recently. Look elsewhere.

Form: 480-00

(8)

Elixir Vitae⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs Marjorie Fife

200/1

Tailed off on racecourse debut over C&D last week, finishing 45-length behind her nearest rival after she basically refused to race. Impossible to make a case for despite the drop in grade.

Form: 0

(7)

Northern Grace²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-1| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 42

20/1

Hasn't improved at all since switched to handicaps, and despite the solid form of the yard at present she can be readily opposed after running no sort of race over C&D last time out.

Form: 8869-69

Forecasts

Know No Limits (11/10), Clockers Corner (11/8), Mogsy (7/2), Go Well Spicy (13/2), Northern Grace (20/1), Jackate (20/1), The Mackem Rocket (33/1), Luvi's Little Bro (100/1), Elixir Vitae (200/1)

Plenty of these can be swiftly ruled out given how poor a race this looks. Given how well she comes out at the weights, this should be a straightforward task for KNOW NO LIMITS. She has been unable to build upon the promise she showed as a two-year-old, but this represents a hefty ease in grade. She can make the most of it receiving weight from her main rivals. One of those rivals is Mogsy who needs to bounce back from his recent no show at Beverley, and has a difficult task conceding nearly a stone to the selection despite being rated 4lb inferior. Perhaps Clockers Corner can finish third given this is by far the easiest assignment he has faced since joining Archie Watson.
