Polyphony^p³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: David Probert| T: J Mackie| OR: 77| CD

6/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 10-runner handicap (14/1) at this C&D 30 days ago, keeping on gamely. This 6 lb higher mark demands another personal best.

Form: 145381-

Joyful Mission^e/s1⁵⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Rossa Ryan| T: D Loughnane| OR: 75

28/1

Last of 10 in handicap at this course (8.6f, 12/1) 59 days ago. Eyeshields on for 1st time and he needs to bounce back.

Form: 4/45690-

Cozone¹²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J Ferguson| OR: 76

3/1

5/1, third of 5 in handicap at Kempton (16f), slowly away. Off 124 days and back down in trip on this tapeta debut/first run for yard after leaving Amanda Perrett. Couldn't rule out.

Finoah^v³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Jane Elliott| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 75

13/2

Unreliable sort. Latest win at Redcar in October. 2½ lengths seventh of 10 to Polyphony in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 30 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Precision Storm²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: R Kingscote| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 76| BF| CD

10/3

C&D winner. Latest win here in October. 3/1, creditable second of 7 in handicap at this C&D 22 days ago. 1 lb rise fair and he has to be taken seriously.

Form: 91425-2

Military Tactic^t1⁵⁵⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Joey Haynes| T: B Pauling| OR: 73

66/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (8f, good, 10/3) when last seen 18 months ago. First run for yard after leaving Saeed Bin Suroor and the market should be revealing.

Form: 8234/

Gavi Di Gavi^p¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Miss Georgia King⁽⁷⁾| T: A King| OR: 73| BF| CD

13/2

Course winner. Latest win here in January. 9/4, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 14 days ago, never nearer. Looks ready for this stiffer test and he's one to consider.

Form: 8642-13

Gold Ribbon^h²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: A Kirby| T: R A Teal| OR: 72

17/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1 and hooded for 1st time, first run since leaving Mark Johnston when creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 20 days ago, not knocked about.

Form: 4537-4

At Ease⁶⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: K Shoemark| T: C Hills| OR: 72

18/1

Thrice-raced winner. One win from 3 runs last year. Seventh of 10 in handicap (6/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 66 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 417-

Visibility⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: L Morris| T: S Dixon| OR: 67| CD

16/1

C&D winner. Winner here in January. Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (11/4) 8 days ago. Likely to find a few too good once more.

Form: 3589-15

Hold Fast^v¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Hayley Turner| T: A M Balding| OR: 63

22/1

8/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 12 days ago. Has dropped to a potentially handy mark, but he does have a bit to prove now.

Form: 65395-5

Forecasts

Cozone (3/1), Precision Storm (10/3), Polyphony (6/1), Gavi Di Gavi (13/2), Finoah (13/2), Gold Ribbon (17/2), Visibility (16/1), At Ease (18/1), Hold Fast (22/1), Joyful Mission (28/1), Military Tactic (66/1)

GAVI DI GAVI and Precision Storm could be the pair to concentrate on. The latter is in good form and is not passed over at all lightly, but Gavi Di Gavi did well to finish as close as he did at Lingfield a fortnight ago and gets the nod back here (both previous wins gained at this course) with this step up in trip seemingly a good move. Cozone is most interesting of the others.
