Marvel^p²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Josh Quinn| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 68| BF

11/4

7/2, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Doncaster (5.6f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Return to this 6f trip rates a plus and claims from this sort of mark if putting it together.

Form: 4-22556

Vardon Flyer^t³¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Zak Wheatley| T: S England| OR: 67

8/1

14/1, below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, good to firm) when last seen in September. Has since switched yards but probably best watched unless betting suggests otherwise.

Form: 2/95708-

Dana Forever³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Luke Catton| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 66| BF

7/2

Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs. Creditable second of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 2/1) 31 days ago, beaten only by an improver. Claims with a repeat.

Form: 245852

Moonbootz¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Alan Persse| T: K R Burke| OR: 65

16/1

Fair maiden who may have needed first run for 5 months on the back of a wind op when last of 7 in a Sandown handicap (7f) in July. This should reveal more.

Form: 22-4207

(2)

Musahaba^b⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: A J Farragher| T: D O'Meara| OR: 62

5/4

Blinkered for 1st time, creditable second of 13 in handicap (7/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 4 days ago. That was up there with his best efforts for this yard and a repeat should see him in the mix.

Form: 266842

Forecasts

Musahaba (5/4), Marvel (11/4), Dana Forever (7/2), Vardon Flyer (8/1), Moonbootz (16/1)

A tricky sprint to close the card with the tentative vote going to MARVEL. The return to 6f promises to suit Julie Camacho's 5-y-o and he's on a workable mark. Musahaba and Dana Forever can do battle for the forecast.
