11/2

Five-time C&D winner. Five wins from 22 runs last year. 66/1, well-held sixth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 13 days ago. Back on winning mark so dangerous to rule out revival back on fibresand.

Form: 3534-56

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Murphy| OR: 49| CD

4/9

Thriving, winning easily over C&D before gaining third win of year in 6f Kempton classified a week ago.10 lb penalty doesn't look enough to stop him.

Form: 5-17211

Catapult⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 8-7| J: Molly Presland⁽⁷⁾| T: S L Keightley| OR: 45| C| D

9/1

Course winner. Good fifth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford (5f) 6 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Back up in trip. Could go well.

Form: 948-865

Forecasts

Owhatanight (4/9), Puchita (11/2), Jazz Legend (17/2), Catapult (9/1), Signore Piccolo (25/1), Bahuta Acha (28/1), Outofthegloom (50/1), Shortbackandsides (50/1)

There's been no stopping the Mike Murphy team this year and OWHATANIGHT looks good for another win despite a 10 lb penalty. Catapult took a step back in the right direction last time and could be the one to follow the selection home.
