Luigi Vampa^t1²³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Jason Watson| T: D Menuisier| OR: 86

11/2

Capable sort who ran respectably without looking straightforward when fifth in big field York handicap (10.2f) in September, taking time to knuckle down. Blinkers discarded for return.

Sweet Celebration⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Oisin Murphy| T: M Botti| OR: 85

9/2

Fourth of 5 in handicap (6/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 49 days ago, fading entering final 1f. Had filled runners-up spot on 2 previous starts and certainly no forlorn hope.

Form: 263-224

No Nay Bella²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: T Ward| OR: 82| D

12/1

Three wins from 8 runs last year. First run since leaving Marco Botti when good second of 8 in handicap (9/4) at Kempton (11f) 26 days ago. Should give another good account.

Form: 511-732

Goldie Hawk¹⁹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: C F Wall| OR: 78

9/4

Golden Horn filly who improved rapidly switched to handicaps last term, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Kempton (12f) in October. Type to do better again this campaign.

Form: 6/4111-

City Tour^b⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: S De Sousa| T: Mrs L Richards| OR: 77| BF| D

11/2

5/2, shaped well from a poor position when second of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 40 days ago, finishing well. Can ill afford another slow start but he's a player on balance.

Form: 9076-22

Ranco^t,v⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽⁷⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 72| CD

7/2

Career best when winning 7-runner handicap (13/2) at this C&D (good to firm) 7 days ago. Not long with his present stable and he's very much of interest again under a penalty.

Form: 11-8441

Forecasts

Goldie Hawk (9/4), Ranco (7/2), Sweet Celebration (9/2), Luigi Vampa (11/2), City Tour (11/2), No Nay Bella (12/1)

RANCO produced a career best to open his account for his present stable when landing a C&D event 7 days ago, doing it with a bit to spare, and he is fancied to follow up under a penalty. Goldie Hawk was upwardly mobile in handicaps as a 3-y-o and can do better again this term. City Tour completes the shortlist in the finale.
