Holt Selling Handicap Hurdle

State Vision^p1⁷⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Cillin Leonard⁽⁷⁾| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 96

11/8

Fair form at best for Charlie Longsdon last term. Pulled up both starts in handicaps this season, but since joined a shrewd yard and couldn't rule out down in grade here in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 7476-PP

Top Beak³⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: William Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: M Young| OR: 95

28/1

Very modest on the Flat and record in this sphere stands at 0-10 following a heavy defeat in 2m Warwick handicap last month.

Form: P0-44B8

All Good Things^b,t¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Stan Sheppard| T: M Sheppard| OR: 95| BF| D

7/4

Has returned to form on his last 3 starts, runner-up in handicaps at Ffos Las either side of winning one at Bangor in January. Very much the one to beat.

Form: 957212

Devious Dicks Dame^h⁹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: James Davies| T: A Irvine| OR: 76| D

11/1

Came good from out of the blue when bagging a weak Plumpton selling handicap in November. Claims if able to build on that, but whether she will or not remains to be seen.

Form: 4/08P-81

Kingston Mimosa^b²⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: C J Todd⁽⁵⁾| T: Mark Gillard| OR: 73

4/1

Twice a winner over fences from lowly marks last winter. First piece of worthwhile form this season when fourth back in this sphere at Plumpton and he's certainly not without hope.

Form: 14-P7P4

Forecasts

State Vision (11/8), All Good Things (7/4), Kingston Mimosa (4/1), Devious Dicks Dame (11/1), Red Orator (16/1), Top Beak (28/1)

On recent form at least, ALL GOOD THINGS is the standout contender in this selling handicap. Devious Dicks Dame appeared to improve when opening her account at Plumpton, but she's far from certain to build on that and State Vision, who makes his debut here for Dr Richard Newland, and Kingston Mimosa could be in line for minor place money.
