17/2

11/8, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 23 days ago. Merits consideration.

Brunel Charm^p1⁶⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: David Egan| T: R Hughes| OR: 70| BF

10/3

Eleven runs since last win in 2019. 5/2, bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 69 days ago, finding test too much. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Drop back in trip should suit.

Form: 0334-56

Dourado¹⁷⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: George Rooke⁽³⁾| T: P R Chamings| OR: 70| D

18/1

Twenty runs since last win in 2017. 13/2, eighth of 12 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, heavy). Off 177 days. Others make more appeal.

33/1

13/2, good fourth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, good). Off 7 months. Claims if he's fully tuned up for this return.

50/1

18/5, tenth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f). Off 6 months. Stable isn't really firing at present, so best watched for now.

Azets³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Cameron Noble⁽³⁾| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 63| CD

12/1

C&D winner. Three wins from 15 runs last year. Latest win here in October. Good third of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 10/1) 30 days ago. Should give another good account.

Form: 31324-3

Soyounique^t¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Sir M Todd| OR: 63| CD

9/4

Career best when winning 13-runner handicap (9/4) at this C&D 19 days ago. Remains well treated on old form and looks up to landing the hat-trick.

Form: 50-2411

(12)

Dark White⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Charlie Bennett| T: P Phelan| OR: 62

66/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, fourth of 8 in maiden at Kempton (8f) 40 days ago. Opening mark looks stiff but he might do better now handicapping.

Form: 694

(10)

In The Cove^b¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon| OR: 62| CD

8/1

C&D winner. 11/2, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 14 days ago, left poorly placed. One to consider from lenient mark.

Form: 66-6465

(7)

Champagne Supanova^p²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Angus Villiers⁽⁵⁾| T: R Spencer| OR: 60| C

14/1

Course winner. Latest win here in March. 10/1, respectable fifth of 15 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 25 days ago, racing freely. Still on a fair mark, so not totally discounted.

Form: 960-315

(11)

Harbour Storm¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: William Carson| T: R Brisland| OR: 59

7/1

16/1, good 1¼ lengths fourth of 13 to Soyounique in handicap at this C&D 19 days ago, having run of race. Others more persuasive.

Form: 60-5754

(9)

Magicinthemaking²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J E Long| OR: 58| D

33/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2019. Tenth of 15 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 6/1) 25 days ago. Not easy to make a case for.

Form: 275-960

Forecasts

Soyounique (9/4), Brunel Charm (10/3), Harbour Storm (7/1), In The Cove (8/1), Martineo (17/2), Azets (12/1), Dark Phoenix (12/1), Champagne Supanova (14/1), Dourado (18/1), Newton Jack (33/1), Magicinthemaking (33/1), Ivadream (50/1), Dark White (66/1)

SOYOUNIQUE arrives on a hat-trick and, based on the way he powered home to score over C&D last time, a 4 lb rise might not be enough to stop him. Brunel Charm looks of interest dropping in both grade and trip, while the in-form Martineo is another danger.
