Right Action^t,v1³³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: Gina Mangan⁽⁵⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 61| CD

13/2

C&D winner. Respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 25/1) 33 days ago. Visor on 1st time and each-way chance if the new headgear has the desired effect.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Marco Ghiani| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 56

5/2

7/2, sixth of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good). Off 151 days and this 15-race maiden will probably find a few too good once more.

Form: 462646-

Fossos^p,t⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Rob Hornby| T: D Faulkner| OR: 54

33/1

20/1, last of 11 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, heavy) 84 days ago, not ideally placed. First run for yard after leaving Tim Easterby and cheekpieces back on. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Forecasts

Daysaq (5/2), Kenstone (10/3), Bagatelle (9/2), Right Action (13/2), Distinction (7/1), Al Suil Eile (15/2), Zero Hour (22/1), Fossos (33/1), Little Hercules (50/1), Orange Justice (250/1)

BAGATELLE's latest effort at Kempton was simply too bad to be true, and she is given another chance to prove that her decisive breakthrough success there in November was no flash in the pan. Zero Hour and Kenstone may emerge as the main dangers.
