Racing Partnership Mares' Handicap Chase

Off time: 13:55 | Winning time: 5m 59.80s

Tippingituptonancy^t⁴⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 95

10/1

Expensive recruit from points who might have a bigger effort in her. Not given a hard time on return/chase debut at Huntingdon and up in trip for handicap debut over fences now.

Form: 2/0P73-4

Miss Zip^b²³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 94| D

7/4

Yet to fire this term after ending last season with a hat-trick in handicap chases in the mud under this rider. Blinkers she wore for those wins are back on now and she's on a tempting mark.

Form: 111-665

Achy Breaky Heart^h,t¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Kevin Jones⁽³⁾| T: M F Harris| OR: 93

11/2

Dual point winner who shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on first run for trainer in C&D handicap last month (all but came down last when holding place claims). One to consider.

Form: 6-62674

Hepburn^p,t³²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: James Bowen| T: A Stronge| OR: 93

18/1

Maiden who got no further than the first back chasing at Wincanton last month. Very hard to fancy.

Form: 3/44P-PU

Florella⁴⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 11-8| J: James Best| T: Cynthia Woods| OR: 91

33/1

Multiple point winner but form under Rules doesn't amount to much, coming home in her own time at Huntingdon 6 weeks ago. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 2/97P-43

Krujers Girl²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: K Brogan⁽⁷⁾| T: J Farrelly| OR: 83

5/1

Modest maiden who made a creditable start over fences when fourth at Leicester, but she failed to build on that in the Plumpton mud fitted with cheekpieces 3 weeks ago.

Form: 4/P-694P

Amethea⁴⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: C J Todd⁽⁵⁾| T: C Fryer| OR: 80

22/1

Hinted at ability in bumpers but no real impact over hurdles and again on chase debut 7 weeks ago.

Form: 67P/P-68

Mrsgrey^t³³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Lee Edwards| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 79

5/1

Maiden who has fared better the last twice as her mark has fallen, keeping on for a place on chase bow at Ludlow (20f, soft) last month.

Form: 6U-8083

Shaw's Dilemma^b1,t²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: David Noonan| T: T R Gretton| OR: 78

28/1

Maiden who has finished well held again in 2 handicap chases this season. Blinkers now given a whirl.

Form: F655-45

Leave My Alone^t³⁰⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: R P McLernon| T: Mrs R Ford| OR: 75

14/1

Has the build/background of a chaser (point winner) but hadn't taken to the new discipline when last seen in March.

Form: PU706P-

Non-Runners

Episode¹⁵

Weight: 11-10| Age: 7

T: G & J Moore J: J E Moore

Forecasts

Episode (5/4), Miss Zip (7/4), Krujers Girl (5/1), Mrsgrey (5/1), Achy Breaky Heart (11/2), Tippingituptonancy (10/1), Leave My Alone (14/1), Hepburn (18/1), Amethea (22/1), Shaw's Dilemma (28/1), Florella (33/1)

ACHY BREAKY HEART made a promising start for her new trainer here a fortnight ago, a late mistake possibly costing her a place. She could open her account if building on that. Episode ran well in the same race and has good claims in a first-time tongue tie. A revival from Miss Zip now re-fitted with blinkers and re-united with Adam Wedge wouldn't surprise.
