4/1

Won 10-runner handicap at this course (5f, 10/3) 16 days ago by neck from Adams Barbour, just holding on. Not an obvious one for the follow-up.

4/1

Lightly-raced winner. 6/5, career best when winning 7-runner maiden at this C&D 14 days ago, quickening clear. Yard having good spell. Open to further progress, so solid claims despite wide draw.

6/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in November. Good neck third of 10 to Brushwork in handicap (7/2) at this course (5f) 16 days ago. Should give another good account from a handy draw.

Form: 13222-3

Geological³⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 9-2| J: Andrew Slattery| T: D English| OR: 73| CD

50/1

4-time C&D winner. 5/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f) 35 days ago, doing too much too soon. Edging down the weights without threatening to capitalise.

Form: 987060-

Forecasts

Brushwork (4/1), Moshammer (4/1), No Speed Limit (6/1), Adams Barbour (7/1), Stellar Spirit (8/1), Acquiescent (8/1), Ajax Tavern (10/1), Royal Dynasty (10/1), Queens Carriage (12/1), The Nosey Parker (14/1), Inflection Point (18/1), Mummy Bear (20/1), Eglish (33/1), Pinball Wizard (33/1), Independent Missy (40/1), Ecclesiastical (40/1), Geological (50/1)

ACQUIESCENT has been threatening to come good lately and a well-run race at this trip is ideal for her, so she gets the marginal vote in what strikes as a hot contest on paper. Moshammer, a ready winner of a maiden last time, is a big danger despite stall 15, while No Speed Limit could prove hard to pass if he gets his own way out in front.
