Park This One⁹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Page Fuller| T: Jamie Snowden

6/1

£4,500 3-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to bumper winner/useful hurdler (stayed 21f) Santia. Successful on last of 3 starts in points (Nov 14). Notable Rules newcomer.

Form: P-31

Propelled³³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| BF

11/2

5/6, second of 5 on Huntingdon debut a month ago. That wasn't a strong race but he's from a top stable so has the potential for better.

Form: 2

Razzo Italiano

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: W T Kennedy| T: H Chisman

125/1

Frammassone gelding. Dam unraced. Makes limited appeal on paper.

Form:

Shomen Uchi⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: S Thomas

2/5

Half-brother to 3 winners and made a positive start when runner-up at Wincanton 52 days ago. That form looks solid (winner scored over hurdles next time), so a similar effort could be enough.

Form: 2

Sunduro

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Lorcan Williams| T: R G Hawker

40/1

£22,000 3-y-o, Manduro gelding. Half-brother to 9.5f/1¼m winner Ursus. Dam, 19f hurdler winner, also 1½m winner on Flat. Should have enough speed for this sort of test.

Form:

Cape Town Erin³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Liam Harrison⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien| BF

14/1

Half-sister to fair chaser Warwickshire and offered plenty to work on when third at Newcastle on debut, finishing with running left. Open to improvement wit this stiffer test likely to suit.

Form: 3

Forecasts

Shomen Uchi (2/5), Steal My Sunshine (5/1), Propelled (11/2), Park This One (6/1), Sea Village (12/1), Cape Town Erin (14/1), Sunduro (40/1), Razzo Italiano (125/1)

SHOMEN UCHI showed plenty when runner-up to a subsequent hurdles winner at Wincanton 52 days ago and, with scope for better, he's an obvious choice to get off the mark at the second attempt. Cape Town Erin and Steal My Sunshine didn't achieve quite as much as the selection on debut, but are both open to improvement.
