Sir Titan¹⁶²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: Hayley Turner| T: A W Carroll| OR: 81| D

40/1

Never saw another rival when resuming winning ways at Epsom (7f) in July but failed to replicate that next 2 starts, last of 10 at Newbury (7f) when in August. Possible he'll need this on return.

Insomnia^p1¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Tom Marquand| T: R Spencer| OR: 78| BF| CD

5/2

Lightly-raced winner. 13/8, creditable second of 6 in handicap at this course (8f, AW) 10 days ago, headed close home. Wide draw to overcome but return to 7f will hold no fears. Respected.

Form: 193-2

Swiss Pride^p¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Laura Coughlan⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 77| C

28/1

Consistent performer. Three wins from 11 runs last year. 8/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 17 days ago. However, appeals as being no more than averagely treated at present.

Form: 82373-5

Algheed¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 76| CD

8/1

C&D winner. Creditable second of 5 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 2/1) 12 days ago, clear of rest. No reason why she won't give another good account in present groove.

Form: 4652-32

Radetsky¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 74| CD

2/1

3-time C&D winner. Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (5/2) at this C&D (AW) 14 days ago, having bit in hand despite proving keen enough. Can't be dismissed.

Form: 60880-1

Nefarious⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: S Dow| OR: 71| CD

5/1

Won 7-runner handicap at this C&D (9/4) 8 days ago, capitalising on career-low mark. Only 2 lb higher now and worth considering given handicapping scope on old form.

Form: 60954-1

Light Up Our Stars^h¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Callum Shepherd| T: A W Carroll| OR: 67| D

11/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. Creditable third of 8 in handicap (9/1) at Chelmsford (10f) 16 days ago. Back down in trip.

Forecasts

Radetsky (2/1), Insomnia (5/2), Nefarious (5/1), Algheed (8/1), Princesse Animale (10/1), Light Up Our Stars (11/1), George Morland (12/1), Mount Mogan (20/1), Swiss Pride (28/1), Sir Titan (40/1)

A competitive finale with the vote narrowly in favour of NEFARIOUS. He confirmed the promise of his Kempton effort when running out a good winner of a C&D handicap 8 days ago and a 2 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent a bold follow-up bid. Insomnia and Algheed head up the dangers, ahead of Radetsky.
