Study The Stars¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: P J McDonald| T: S Kirk| OR: 59| D

Alaskan Lady¹⁸¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Liam Keniry| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 59

(5)

Desert Rose²⁰⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| OR: 58

16/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 22/1, twelfth of 14 in nursery at Kempton (1m) when last seen in October but it's clearly still early days and she's with a leading stable.

Form: 340-

(7)

My Boy Charles⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: A Wintle| OR: 58

25/1

Modest form for Fozzy Stack in Ireland. Best watched on yard debut unless the betting speaks in his favour.

Form: 9880-8

(6)

Your Love Is King²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Dylan Hogan⁽³⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 57

33/1

Down the field in maiden/novice events this spring but plenty from the hard improver for the switch to handicaps. Worth keeping an eye on in the market.

Form: 080

(9)

Adace^v¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: M R Channon| OR: 55

4/1

Improved when narrowly denied in 1m Windsor handicap (good to firm) 16 days ago. 4 lb rise looks fair and good shout if in similar form now.

Form: 566-862

(13)

Devil's Cub⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: T Ward| OR: 55| CD

7/4

C&D winner last year. Creditable third of 12 in handicap at Kempton (1m) last month. Things conspired against him at Wolverhampton since and treated as if still in form.

Form: 1232-37

(4)

Jaffathegaffa^b¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Bennett| T: A West| OR: 55

12/1

Did reach the frame in a couple of AW handicaps at the end of last year but reappearance run at Southwell was poor.

Form: 74244-8

(2)

Vivian Grey^t1⁹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Charles Bishop| T: Joe Ponting| OR: 54WS

50/1

Already on his third trainer. No show in 3 starts to date but more realistic chance now handicapping at a basement level. Has had wind surgery and also has a tongue tie added.

Form: 07-8

(3)

Money Honey³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: F Norton| T: J W Unett| OR: 53

50/1

Poor form in 4 AW starts for Gay Kelleway this year. Needs to improve for the switch to a new stable.

Form: 9558

Got No Dollars¹⁷

Weight: 9-3| Age: 3

T: R Hughes J: A Kirby

Forecasts

Devil's Cub (7/4), Adace (4/1), Tick Toch (6/1), Study The Stars (8/1), Got No Dollars (10/1), Jaffathegaffa (12/1), Desert Rose (16/1), Major J (18/1), Day Trader (22/1), My Boy Charles (25/1), Your Love Is King (33/1), Alaskan Lady (40/1), Vivian Grey (50/1), Money Honey (50/1)

In an open finale the vote goes to ADACE on the back of his improved second at Windsor recently. Tick Toch and Major J are likely to be in the mix if translating AW form to the turf, while Your Love Is King is a possible improver in handicaps and needs keeping an eye on in the betting.
