First Account³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Billy Garritty⁽³⁾| T: K Dalgleish

4/1

Fairly useful handicap hurdler, won at Perth last time (in first-time visor). Could find the trip on the sharp side on belated Flat debut, but it's a thin event.

Full Circle¹²⁶

Hasn't shown much in a trio of bumpers and Redcar novice event.

Little Jack^h,t¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Aiden Brookes⁽⁷⁾| T: Micky Hammond

80/1

Bumper winner/fair hurdler but has refused to race. 80/1, reluctant to race and always behind starting out for new yard at Wolverhampton 17 days ago. One to treat with caution.

George Square

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: G Lee| T: D Brooke

28/1

£7,000 yearling, Epaulette gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 7f winner Macaroon and 7f/7.5f winner Bakewell Tart. Yard in form and he could be in the money on debut.

Sukarno¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: B A Curtis| T: C & M Johnston

7/1

11/2, last of 5 in minor event at Ripon (12f, good to firm) on debut 14 days ago, better for run. Could improve and this isn't a strong contest.

Form: 5

Little impact thus far.

Nadein²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Hollie Doyle| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 77

2/9

5/2, improved further when neck second of 5 to Valley Forge in 12f maiden at Ffos Las 27 days ago, clear of rest. Looks a useful stayer in the making and should take all the beating.

Forecasts

Nadein (2/9), First Account (4/1), Sukarno (7/1), Punxsutawney Phil (16/1), George Square (28/1), Full Circle (80/1), Robert Johnson (80/1), Little Jack (80/1), Thesethingshappen (80/1), Bright Dawn (200/1)

NADEIN is going the right way and this looks a good opportunity for her to open her account. Sukarno should have come on plenty for his Ripon debut and could figure. First Account won over hurdles last time and is another to note.
