Pinnata^t³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Marco Ghiani⁽⁵⁾| T: S C Williams| OR: 94| CD

Majestic Dawn³¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Charles Bishop| T: P & O Cole| OR: 94| BF

17/2

Had some very solid handicap form last season. It's taken a bit of time to get him back but no surprise if he has even more to offer. Drops back in trip for this reappearance.

Form: 773513-

Flaming Spear^b1⁵²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: George Downing| T: D K Ivory| OR: 90| CD

33/1

Former C&D listed winner but seemingly isn't anything like the force of old and has finished well held in 2 turf handicaps this term. Blinkers need to make a difference.

Form: 5700-00

Zhui Feng⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 88| C| D

15/2

Course winner. Eighteen runs since last win in 2018. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (7f) 8 days ago but others preferred for win purposes again.

Sha La La La Lee⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Jane Elliott| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 86| D

40/1

In good form on AW at the start of the year but lesser efforts on turf in recent weeks. Return to AW needs to make a big difference.

Form: 225908

King's Slipper⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 85| CD

9/1

C&D winner and also runner-up twice here at the start of the year. Has struggled on turf of late so he's another who needs this return to AW to spark him back to life.

Form: 7-22607

(8)

Itkaann³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 90| CD

7/2

C&D maiden winner in December and looked very useful when returning to win 7-runner handicap at Salisbury (1m, good to firm) 31 days ago. Likely he has more to offer. Leading claims.

Form: 421-1

Raaed²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Dane O'Neill| T: B J Meehan| OR: 89| D

Dark Spectre³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: L Morris| T: E Walker| OR: 84

14/1

Showed improved form to get off the mark at the third attempt in 13-runner maiden at Lingfield (10f, AW) 18 days ago. More needed now handicapping but he is lightly raced.

Form: 831

(2)

Impatient⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Harry Bentley| T: R M Beckett| OR: 84| CD

9/4

C&D nursery winner last autumn and better form in defeat this year, including staying-on second of 12 here (7f) 8 days ago. Return to 1m in his favour.

Form: 71-2802

Forecasts

Impatient (9/4), Itkaann (7/2), Zhui Feng (15/2), Majestic Dawn (17/2), King's Slipper (9/1), Raaed (11/1), Pinnata (12/1), Dark Spectre (14/1), Flaming Spear (33/1), Sha La La La Lee (40/1)

A fairly useful contest which may be dominated by the 3-y-os. ITKAANN took another step forward when successful on his Salisbury reappearance and is selected to make light of a 7 lb rise. Last week's course runner-up Impatient should prove suited by the return to 1m and looks next best ahead of Lingfield maiden winner Raaed.
