11/1

Good second of 11 in handicap (6/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 9 days ago, nearest finish from a wide draw. Visor on now and worth considering.

Form: 521/28-2

Mandarin²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-10| J: Oliver Stammers⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 75| D

25/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2019 but he shaped encouragingly when fifth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 21 days ago, left poorly placed. Handily weighted and not taken lightly.

Form: 05066-5

Central City⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: R Kingscote| T: Ian Williams| OR: 74| CD

10/1

25/1

Tried in cheekpieces when last of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 61 days ago. Fair winner at his best but needs to bounce back.

Form: 43/7747-

Hint Of Stars³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽⁷⁾| T: K P De Foy| OR: 75| D

6/4

Improved for new yard, and opened his account with ready victory in 12f handicap at Newcastle 33 days ago. Up 5 lb but still low mileage so sure to go well again.

Form: 046731-

(8)

Aced It^t¹³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: J Mitchell| T: C Poulton| OR: 70

200/1

Fair maiden for Joseph O'Brien but he returns after 134-day break and significantly up in trip so needs to hit the ground running for new yard.

Form: 040208-

Dublin Blue^t⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: I Furtado| OR: 70

150/1

33/1

Winless since 2019 but in good form, including over hurdles, until only eighth of 11 in 12f handicap at Lingfield 9 days ago. Sort to bounce back.

Form: 58422-8

My Boy Sepoy^t1¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 68

6/1

Seventeen runs since last win in 2019 but posted respectable fourth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 17 days ago. Tongue strap on now and in the mix.

Where's Tom¹⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Madgwick| OR: 68| D

15/2

Debut winner on AW at Lingfield (also fairly useful bumper scorer) but off track since modest ninth of 12 in 14f handicap at Salisbury in September. Not ruled out if fully tuned up for his return.

Form: 1669-

(9)

Ilhabela Fact¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-1| J: T P Queally| T: A W Carroll| OR: 66| CD

33/1

5-time course winner who took this contest in 2019. 100/1 and shaped as if need of run after 4 months off when fading seventh of 14 in handicap over C&D 17 days ago. No forlorn hope for in-form yard.

Form: 66007-7

(12)

Catbird Seat²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Megan Nicholls| T: A King| OR: 69| D

8/1

On the up since sent handicapping, scoring at Wolverhampton before third of 13 at Lingfield (12f) 26 days ago. Still quite unexposed so well worth considering for good yard.

Form: 80021-3

(4)

By Jove¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: B A Curtis| T: M Appleby| OR: 63| BF| D

10/1

In excellent form for new yard, scoring at Wolverhampton in January before third of 10 under 5 lb penalty in 12f handicap at Lingfield 18 days ago. Can race off 2 lb lower now so holds solid claims.

Form: 0854-13

Hint Of Stars (6/4), My Boy Sepoy (6/1), Where's Tom (15/2), Catbird Seat (8/1), Central City (10/1), By Jove (10/1), Bashful Boy (11/1), Inclyne (20/1), Mandarin (25/1), Skerryvore (25/1), Percy Prosecco (33/1), Ilhabela Fact (33/1), Dublin Blue (150/1), Aced It (200/1)

A few with chances but CATBIRD SEAT's form is on an upward curve now he's gone handicapping so he's taken to come out on top for the in-form Alan King yard. Ready Newcastle scorer Hint of Stars is greatly feared despite a 5 lb rise and both Bashful Boy and By Jove present persuasive cases too in a competitive handicap.
