1/3

Fairly useful gelding. Three wins from 7 runs last year. Didn't need to be at best when winning 8-runner claimer at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 5/6) 9 days ago by length from Dr Jekyll, running on.

Form: 041-711

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 65

15/2

Fairly useful gelding. Respectable length second of 8 to Unforgiving Minute in claimer (7/2) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 9 days ago. First run for yard after leaving David Simcock. Has a bit to find.

Form: 34-2922

Light Up Our Stars^h²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A W Carroll| OR: 71

9/2

Fair gelding. 25/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 27 days ago, not ideally placed. Others more persuasive.

Form: 045-769

150/1

Making GB/IRE Flat debut. 80/1, tenth of 12 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, good) on NH debut. Off 8 months. Doesn't make much appeal.

11/1

Fairly useful gelding. 10/3 and eyeshields on for 1st time, won 5-runner seller at Southwell (5f) 21 days ago, driven out. Not sure to be in the same form and he's better over shorter.

Form: 8100-51

Surrajah¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: A West| OR: 47| D

66/1

Modest gelding. Good third of 11 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f, 22/1) 13 days ago, nearest finish. Plenty to find at the weights.

Forecasts

Unforgiving Minute (1/3), Light Up Our Stars (9/2), Dr Jekyll (15/2), Portugueseprincess (15/2), Doc Sportello (11/1), Surrajah (66/1), Rocky Sea (150/1)

UNFORGIVING MINUTE has comfortably landed a couple of similar events recently and is firmly expected to complete the hat-trick up against some out of form/unreliable types. Doc Sportello and Portugeseprincess could give the selection most to think about.
