Powerful Hero

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Nicola Currie| T: J & A O'Neill

66/1

Alphonse Karr¹⁰⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: T Ward| OR: 77| BF

11/5

Twice-raced gelding. Second of 12 in minor event (4/5) at Wolverhampton (6.1f), clear of rest. Off 109 days and won't be far away if proving equally effective on turf.

Form: 22-

(8)

Emanate

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S W Kelly| T: N P Mulholland

100/1

Coach House gelding. Dam winner up to 7f (2-y-o 5f-6f winner). Like stablemate Sky Central, he's probably best watched on debut.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: George Downing| T: J G Portman

100/1

Once-raced gelding. 40/1, eighth of 14 in minor event at Kempton (7f) on debut 27 days ago. More one for handicaps later on.

Marlay Park¹⁹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S M Levey| T: J R Boyle| OR: 78

5/1

Lightly-raced gelding. Seventh of 8 in maiden (3/1) at Haydock (6f, good). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Richard Hannon and looks vulnerable from a win point of view.

Form: 2237-

Raffles Rebel²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Charles Bishop| T: A Stronge

66/1

Once-raced gelding. 100/1, sixth of 10 in minor event at Wolverhampton (6.1f) on debut 25 days ago. Big step forward needed.

Form: 6

(5)

Khatwah^t1¹⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: David Probert| T: Owen Burrows

10/3

Promising type. 11/1, fifth of 12 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut in November. Tongue strap on 1st time. Open to improvement and she's high on the shortlist.

Form: 5-

Margarets Memory

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Danny Brock| T: Frank Bishop

200/1

Mazameer filly. Dam maiden. Yard is hardly synonymous with winning newcomers.

Form:

(12)

Nina's Field⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽⁷⁾| T: N P Mulholland

200/1

Twice-raced filly. 200/1, last of 9 in minor event at Kempton (5f) 49 days ago. One of 3 representing Neil Mulholland and, like her stablemates, she is likely to come up short.

Form: 89

(7)

Ruby Cottage

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Josephine Gordon| T: M S Saunders

66/1

Coach House filly. Closely related to winner up to 6f Showmethewayavrilo and half-sister to 5f/5.7f winner Coronation Cottage. Dam 5f/5.3f winner. Yard rarely strikes with newcomers.

Form:

Rule 4

Rule 4 applies to all bets - deduction 40p in the pound

Fernando Rah³⁶

(11)

Pusey Street

Weight: 8-11| Age: 3

T: J Gallagher J: George Buckell

Forecasts

Fernando Rah (6/4), Alphonse Karr (11/5), Khatwah (10/3), Marlay Park (5/1), Pusey Street (33/1), Ruby Cottage (66/1), Raffles Rebel (66/1), Powerful Hero (66/1), Major Force (100/1), Emanate (100/1), Sky Central (150/1), Nina's Field (200/1), Margarets Memory (200/1)

The form of the maiden in which KHATWAH was a promising fifth at Wolverhampton has been boosted since and, with this drop in trip a good move, she may well be the answer. There should be better to come from Fernando Rah, who also made an encouraging start to his career at that AW track, and he is feared most ahead of Alphonse Karr.
