Ginniano¹¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: P Hanagan| T: C Hills| OR: 58

25/1

Modest maiden who came in last of 8 in handicap at Bath (5f, firm) when last seen out 110 days ago. Returns now with plenty to find.

Form: 8468

(2)

Pastfact^p⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: L P Keniry| T: M S Saunders| OR: 57| D

18/5

Dual 6f winner at Chepstow in summer who has continued in good form, third of 15 in handicap at Bath (5.7f) 41 days ago. Firmly in the mix.

Form: 541143

Rainbow Mirage⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Cieren Fallon| T: M G Rimell| OR: 57

7/1

Lightly-raced maiden who wasn't disgraced on her handicap bow when fifth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 22/1) 8 days ago. Bit more needed though if she's to open her account.

Form: 9405

(10)

Waseem Faris⁵⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 9-6| J: Rob Hornby| T: M F Harris| OR: 57| D

18/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2019, and only ninth of 14 in handicap (40/1) at Salisbury (7f, soft) 54 days ago. Big step forward is required.

Form: 979459

The Lacemaker^p,t⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: M F Harris| OR: 57| CD

11/1

C&D winner but she arrives on back of modest tenth of 14 in 7f handicap here 40 days ago. Tongue strap returns and needs to bounce back.

Form: 044250

(7)

Spreadsheet^h³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: S W Kelly| T: J R Boyle| OR: 55| BF

4/1

Unreliable sprinter who (11/4) turned in modest effort when seventh of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 38 days ago. Hood back on now and not easy to make a case for.

Form: 380987

(9)

Comeatchoo⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: P S McEntee| OR: 54| BF

9/2

Only one win from 35 runs, though he often runs with credit, fifth of 11 in 6f handicap (15/2) at Chelmsford City (6f) 5 days ago. Holds solid claims.

Form: 745265

(6)

Knockabout Queen²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: David Probert| T: A W Carroll| OR: 54| CD

7/2

C&D winner in winter but she beat only one on fibresand bow over 5f at Southwell 21 days ago. Back up in trip on polytrack now though so well worth considering off good mark.

Form: 388458

(4)

Cool Strutter^p¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 8-12| J: Jane Elliott| T: J L Spearing| OR: 49| D

28/1

Scored over this trip at Windsor in August but he arrives well below par, tenth of 12 in 6f handicap at Chelmsford City 17 days ago. Others appeal more.

Form: 613000

(3)

Little Floozie⁶⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: William Carson| T: B R Johnson| OR: 47

50/1

Easily best run came on turf when second in 5f Leicester handicap, and last of 13 in similar event at Chelmsford City last time. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 90-7270

Forecasts

Knockabout Queen (7/2), Valentine Blues (7/2), Pastfact (18/5), Spreadsheet (4/1), Comeatchoo (9/2), Rainbow Mirage (7/1), Popple (7/1), The Lacemaker (11/1), Waseem Faris (18/1), Ginniano (25/1), Cool Strutter (28/1), Little Floozie (50/1)

Lots of these have question marks against them so it could be worth siding with C&D winner KNOCKABOUT QUEEN who gets back on polytrack having failed to go on Southwell's fibresand last time and figures on a very attractive mark. Comeatchoo very rarely wins but usually runs his race so seems sure to be on the premises, while in-form Pastfact is another to consider on his first go at the track.
