(1)

Lady Dauphin¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: R Kingscote| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 59

4/1

11/4, first run since leaving Simon Pearce when respectable third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 14 days ago. 1 lb lower now and she has to enter calculations.

Form: 7-09983

Kendergarten Kop^b³²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: David Probert| T: D Flood| OR: 55| D

7/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2019. Respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 8/1) 32 days ago, not ideally placed. Place possibilities.

Form: 3-08444

Pink Jazz^p1¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: W Buick| T: S Curran| OR: 59| BF

11/2

Good third of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 3/1) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and remains on a workable mark, but appears to be more effective on artificial surfaces.

Form: 092923

(8)

Perfect Outing²⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 58

7/1

Promising sort. 40/1, sixth of 12 in maiden at Kempton (8f) when last seen in January. Improvement should be forthcoming now pitched into a handicap off what looks a fair opening mark.

Form: 45-6

(4)

Alezan⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Georgia Dobie⁽⁵⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 56| BF| CD

5/1

C&D winner in July. 5/2, eighth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 54 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 5-78218

(5)

Rockin' N Raven²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S Kirk| OR: 54

9/1

17/2, tenth of 15 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 2 days ago. Hard to recommend on the back of that display.

Form: 397740

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Charles Bishop| T: Mrs Tracey Barfoot-Saunt| OR: 50

33/1

Ninth of 11 in novice hurdle (66/1) at Bangor (16.7f, good to soft) 61 days ago. No real impact in 8 starts in this sphere to date. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Form: 5709-78

66/1

20/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Best to look elsewhere.

Form: 3-04408

Forecasts

Lady Dauphin (4/1), Derek Le Grand (4/1), Alezan (5/1), Pink Jazz (11/2), Kendergarten Kop (7/1), Perfect Outing (7/1), Rockin' N Raven (9/1), Cooperess (16/1), Test Valley (33/1), Ask Siri (66/1)

Judged on her latest effort in an all-weather maiden in January, PERFECT OUTING has been handed a reasonable mark for this handicap debut and she is appealing in a race largely featuring exposed types. Lady Dauphin took a step firmly back in the right direction on debut for a new yard at Wolverhampton and is clear second choice. Kendergarten Kop and Derek Le Grand can do battle for minor honours.
