Lethal Lunch^t¹⁹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Cieren Fallon| T: M L W Bell| OR: 96| D

5/4

Useful sort (last 3 wins gained over this trip on AW). Good effort in the Wokingham in June, and whilst below form in the Bunbury Cup the following month, he's a player down in grade for new yard.

Form: 9102/70-

Embolden^v³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: K T O'Neill| T: L McJannet| OR: 67| D

40/1

Fair gelding. Latest win in seller at Redcar (1m) in November. 11/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 32 days ago. Work to do on these terms.

Form: 502100-

One Hart⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 74| CD

16/5

Fairly useful C&D winner. Respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 6/1) 9 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Should give another good account.

Form: 10003-4

Highest Mountain^v¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Harry Russell⁽⁵⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 69| C

17/2

Fair gelding. Course winner. 6/1 and visored for 1st time, good head second of 11 to Revolutionary Man in seller at this course (8.6f) 16 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently.

Form: 60018-2

Revolutionary Man^b,e/s,t¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Grace McEntee⁽⁵⁾| T: S Curran| OR: 70| C| D

4/1

First run since leaving George Boughey when 9/2, won 11-runner seller at this course (8.6f) 16 days ago by head from Highest Mountain. Clearly in good heart but this is a stronger contest.

Form: 17221-1

Dancing Rave^p⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Cam Hardie| T: D O'Meara| OR: 75| CD

20/1

Fair C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in October. Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 7 days ago. Another expected to appreciate the return to calmer waters.

Form: 74176-6

Kumasi^b⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 70

18/1

Fair gelding. 10/1 and blinkered for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 9 days ago. Needs to step up on that to play a meaningful role here.

Form: 025/74-0

(8)

Treaty Of Dingle¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽³⁾| T: S Curran| OR: 66| C

80/1

Fair filly. Course winner. Latest win at Lingfield in August. Last of 9 in handicap at this C&D (16/1) 14 days ago, doing too much too soon.

Form: 22210-9

(9)

Foronceinmylife¹²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Callum Shepherd| T: J A Osborne| OR: 61

50/1

Fair filly. 18/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 11 in C&D handicap in September. Has gone well after a break previously but others more persuasive.

Form: 623697-

Forecasts

Lethal Lunch (5/4), One Hart (16/5), Revolutionary Man (4/1), Highest Mountain (17/2), Kumasi (18/1), Dancing Rave (20/1), Embolden (40/1), Foronceinmylife (50/1), Treaty Of Dingle (80/1)

A useful sort, LETHAL LUNCH was below form in the Bunbury Cup when last seen in July. However, this marked drop in grade/return to all-weather are both positive factors and he is fancied to stamp his class on this field on yard debut. One Hart and Dancing Rave can give him most to think about.
