Prosili⁶⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Stefano Cherchi⁽⁵⁾| T: M Botti| OR: 62

15/2

13/2, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 67 days ago, weakening final 1f. However, best efforts have come around here so not ruled out having on the back of a small break.

Form: 447220-

Engrave^p³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Dylan Hogan⁽³⁾| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 62| CD

11/1

Dual C&D winner, the latest of them in November. Below form fourth of 9 in handicap (6/1) at Southwell (12.1f) 38 days ago, the trip possibly stretching her. This rates more suitable.

Form: 1817-34

Kentucky Kingdom⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Ellie Mackenzie⁽⁵⁾| T: H J Evans| OR: 62| CD

3/1

Shed maiden tag over C&D in December. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (15/2) at this C&D 9 days ago, left poorly placed. Looks competitive on form.

Form: 3216-45

River Song⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Theodore Ladd⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 62

28/1

Fair 1m winner who has been well held both starts for Grace Harris this winter. Joined a yard adept at rejuvenating such types so well worth a close market check from career-low mark.

Form: 15340-0

Courtside^p⁵⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: J Butler| OR: 60| C

11/1

Course winner. Visored for 1st time, ninth of 11 in seller (15/2) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 56 days ago. First run for yard after leaving David O'Meara and betting should prove a useful guide.

Form: 65304-9

(4)

Recuerdame^h²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: S Dow| OR: 60| CD

7/1

Didn't need to improve to win 9-runner handicap (14/1) at this C&D 23 days ago by short head from Brass Clankers, suited by way race developed. Possibilities again with a repeat.

Form: 1956-61

(10)

Voi^p,t⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Grace McEntee⁽⁵⁾| T: C Allen| OR: 60| D

22/1

Twenty four runs since last win in 2019. 12/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 53-3256

(12)

Born To Sire³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: T P Queally| T: C Wallis| OR: 59

40/1

Last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 31 days ago, albeit not beaten that far having took a keen hold. Previous Wolverhampton second was a good run and not dismissed out of hand.

Form: 6972-20

Glint Of An Eye^p,t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Hayley Turner| T: H Spiller| OR: 57

10/3

9/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable third of 9 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 21 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Step back up in trip rates a plus on recent evidence.

Form: 005-533

(5)

All Of The Lights¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: R Spencer| OR: 57

66/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 5 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 9/2) 15 days ago, going off too hard. Back up in trip.

Form: 5539-5

(16)

Captain St Lucifer^p1,t1¹²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: N Mackay| T: I Furtado| OR: 55

50/1

16/1, again failed to beat a rival when last of 10 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) in October. Has been given a break since but only market support would make him of interest.

Form: 3/66800-

(8)

Dream Point^p²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Nicola Currie| T: L Morgan| OR: 55

20/1

Latest win at Tramore in August. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap (8/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 29 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Cheekpieces back on and one to consider.

Form: 5250-35

(15)

Brass Clankers^p⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: M Harley| T: R Brisland| OR: 54| CD

8/1

C&D winner in January. Respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 6/1) 7 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Cheekpieces back on.

Form: 006-125

(2)

Sweet Marmalade^p⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Harry Russell⁽⁵⁾| T: D Brooke| OR: 53

33/1

Respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 28/1) 7 days ago. However, she remains a maiden and others make greater appeal for win purposes.

Form: 369-358

Forecasts

Kentucky Kingdom (3/1), Glint Of An Eye (10/3), Recuerdame (7/1), Prosili (15/2), Brass Clankers (8/1), Engrave (11/1), Courtside (11/1), Zefferino (14/1), Olivers Pursuit (16/1), Dream Point (20/1), Voi (22/1), River Song (28/1), Sweet Marmalade (33/1), Born To Sire (40/1), Captain St Lucifer (50/1), All Of The Lights (66/1)

GLINT OF AN EYE has run with credit all 3 starts on all-weather this year, shaping as though this longer trip will suit ideally when third at Kempton (1m) 3 weeks ago. She gets the narrow vote, with Dream Point, Prosili and Recuerdame heading up the dangers in a wide-open affair.
