Aweedram⁴³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: A King| OR: 86| D

7/1

Kicked off 2019 with two 1m handicap wins and belatedly back to that sort of form when second of 13 at Haydock (1m, soft) 6 weeks ago. Thereabouts again if backing that up.

Form: 4034-62

Give It Some Teddy^t1²³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Marco Ghiani⁽⁵⁾| T: S C Williams| OR: 84| D

33/1

Strong-travelling sort who ended last season with back-to-back wins at Redcar for Tim Easterby but last of 11 on Newmarket return for new yard. Can only be watched after that. Tongue tie added.

Form: 23411-0

Confide²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 84| BF

7/2

Winner on debut at Redcar (good to soft) in June. Shaped well when second of 12 on 1m York handicap debut 21 days ago, making smooth progress to challenge. Big player.

Form: 132

(10)

Barossa Red⁴³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 84| D

5/1

Progressive sort who was all the better for his return when third (Aweedram second) at Haydock 6 weeks ago, nearest finish. Oisin Murphy takes over from 5 lb claimer. On the shortlist.

Form: 2212-63

Swiss Cheer³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 83| D

25/1

Latest win at Kempton in February. 20/1, bit below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (1m, good to firm) 34 days ago and needs to show he's as good on turf as AW.

Form: 61-3126

(13)

Albadr¹⁷⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: R Ingram| OR: 81| D

150/1

AW novice winner for John Gosden a year ago. Never a threat when fifth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (1m) in February. Off since. Others preferred.

Form: 415-5

(6)

Gallaside^p1³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 87| BF| D

16/1

Three wins at up to 1m last year, including on soft turf. Well held in pair of 1¼m handicaps this year but drop in trip may see him in better light. Cheekpieces also on first time.

Form: 1117-06

(11)

Turntable²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C F Wall| OR: 80| D

7/1

Lightly raced improver who has scored with a bit of authority over 1m at Doncaster (good to soft) and Newmarket (good to firm) on last 2 starts. Up another 6 lb but still respected on hat-trick bid.

Form: 5/42-011

(5)

Brunel Charm⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 82

66/1

AW novice form over the winter reads quite well but has made no impact in a pair of 1m handicaps (AW) since returning to action. Turf debut. Still early days but bit to prove at present.

Form: 14-207

(2)

Hawridge Storm⁵⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: S M Levey| T: B R Millman| OR: 76

25/1

Unreliable individual. Seventh of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Chepstow (7f, good) 54 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Ease in the ground suits him but others still preferred.

Form: 82520-7

(12)

Lapidary⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Ellie Mackenzie⁽⁷⁾| T: H Main| OR: 75

25/1

Dual AW winner last summer and firmly back on track with a good second over 7f at Haydock (good to soft) under this rider last month.

Form: 459-982

(7)

Risk Taker⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 80

3/1

Big improvement to win soft-ground handicap at Haydock (7f) 6 weeks ago. Has a good pedigree and is open to further progress after just 4 starts.

Form: 45-61

(4)

Zefferino^t²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: George Wood| T: M R Bosley| OR: 68| D

22/1

12/1, creditable sixth of 11 in handicap over C&D (good) 29 days ago, not clear run. This big field could play to this hold-up performers strengths.

Form: 1197-46

(3)

Rainbow Jet²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: G Lee| T: J Mackie| OR: 74

33/1

Second on her final 2 starts at 2 yrs (behind subsequent UAE 1000 Guineas-winner Dubai Love second occasion) but has struggled in 3 handicaps this term.

Form: 522-649

(9)

Wilfy^b³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: L P Keniry| T: S Kirk| OR: 72

20/1

Has reacted positively to blinkers, finishing runner-up twice before getting off the mark at Sandown last month. Up 5 lb in a higher grade but dangerous to rule out in his current form.

Form: 2-47221

Forecasts

Risk Taker (3/1), Confide (7/2), Barossa Red (5/1), Aweedram (7/1), Turntable (7/1), Lawmaking (14/1), Gallaside (16/1), Wilfy (20/1), Zefferino (22/1), Lapidary (25/1), Swiss Cheer (25/1), Hawridge Storm (25/1), Give It Some Teddy (33/1), Rainbow Jet (33/1), Light Up Our Stars (33/1), Brunel Charm (66/1), Albadr (150/1)

David O'Meara's northern raider CONFIDE could be the answer here after his promising York handicap debut second last month. Risk Taker should have more to offer on the back of his Haydock win and rates a big threat. Barossa Red, Aweedram and the hat-trick seeking Turntable are also on the shortlist.
