Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Marco Ghiani| T: C Wallis| OR: 58| C| D

3/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in December. 11/2, below form fifth of 13 in handicap at this course (6.1f) 23 days ago, nearest finish. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Shanghai Rock^v1⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: S M Levey| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 55| D

17/2

22/1, bit below form fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 4 days ago. Hasn't been firing lately, so needs a first-time visor to perk him up.

Form: 390-785

(8)

San Juan^t⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Mr Cameron Hillhouse⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 54| D

11/2

Three wins from 12 runs last year. Shaped as if still in form seventh of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City 50 days ago, not clear run. First run for yard after leaving Shaun Keightley. Respected.

Form: 616037-

Amazing Amaya¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: Cam Hardie| T: D Shaw| OR: 54| BF| CD

11/1

C&D winner. 11/4, sixth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 10 days ago. Needs to bounce back and race might not be run to suit.

Form: 61505-6

(1)

You're Cool^t¹⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 9-1| J: Laura Pearson⁽³⁾| T: D Shaw| OR: 52| CD

4/1

6-time C&D winner. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 5/1) 10 days ago. Has good chance on pick of recent form, but he's hard to rely on.

Form: 9990-36

(4)

Qaaraat^v¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: Harry Russell⁽³⁾| T: A Brittain| OR: 51| CD

7/1

C&D winner. Thirty three runs since last win in 2021. 4/1, bit below form fourth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 10 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 83663-4

(2)

La Chica Lobo^h⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: Zak Wheatley⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 45

66/1

Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. 125/1, last of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 4 days ago. Plenty to find on form.

Form: 2807-79

Forecasts

Sir Hector (3/1), Q Twenty Boy (7/2), You're Cool (4/1), San Juan (11/2), Qaaraat (7/1), Shanghai Rock (17/2), Amazing Amaya (11/1), La Chica Lobo (66/1)

Having scored over C&D in December, SIR HECTOR wasn't disgraced over 6f here last time so, with cheekpieces applied, he's fancied to resume winning ways in a race that looks rather weak on paper. Stablemates You're Cool and Amazing Amaya could both launch a challenge if back on their game.
