Batraan⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 78| BF

11/10

Promising type. 15/8, creditable second of 9 in minor event at this course (5.1f) 51 days ago, slowly away and staying on. This step back up in trip looks sure to suit and he looks the one to beat.

Plastic Paddy¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham

33/1

Once-raced gelding. 66/1, didn't achieve a great deal when sixth of 8 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW) on debut 15 days ago, weakening final 1f. Looks set for a struggle again.

Form: 6-

(8)

Power On¹³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J F Egan| T: P W D'Arcy| OR: 70

18/5

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: A Mullen| T: R A Fahey

66/1

€52,000 foal, £65,000 yearling, Kodiac filly who ran as if in need of run for fitness and experience when sixth of 8 in maiden at Southwell (6.1f, 14/1) on debut 31 days ago.

Rhode Island Girl⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Barry McHugh| T: R A Fahey

40/1

Twice-raced filly. 125/1, showed more than first time up when seventh of 14 in maiden at Newcastle (6f) 50 days ago, not knocked about. Ought to do better again at some stage.

Form: 67-

Forecasts

Batraan (11/10), Diligent Harry (6/4), Power On (18/5), Plastic Paddy (33/1), Rhode Island Girl (40/1), Andalaska Bear (66/1), Island Memory (200/1), Feminine Felicity (250/1)

This looks to revolve around BATRAAN, who didn't do things quickly enough over 5f here in November and has been found a weak contest to shed the maiden tag with improvement on the cards. The main threat could come from Clive Cox's newcomer Diligent Harry, while Power On needs to bounce back from a poor showing here back in August to feature.
