11/10

9/4, second of 3 in minor event at Newcastle (10.2f) 16 days ago, no match for winner. Makes polytrack debut. May well get the run of things, and could prove hard to pass.

Deal A Dollar^p⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Callum Shepherd| T: D M Simcock| OR: 90| D

11/4

22/1, creditable sixth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 7 days ago. Has the talent to defy this mark, but a muddling pace wouldn't play to his strengths.

Form: 420/5-46

(3)

Crimson King^v¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: Frederick Larson⁽⁷⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 75| CD

2/1

C&D winner. Three wins from 15 runs last year. Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 11/2, second of 4 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 17 days ago. Solid claims.

Form: 23154-2

Forecasts

Halimi (11/10), Crimson King (2/1), Deal A Dollar (11/4)

HALIMI has the most class of this trio and he may get his own way at the head of affairs, so he's preferred to the in-form Crimson King, while Deal A Dollar is hard to discount from a handy mark.
