11/1

Fairly useful form when winning 5f maiden in Ireland in 2020. Unplaced all 4 starts in handicaps at Sha Tin in 2021. Must have questions to answer on AW bow for new trainer.

5/2

Perfect start to 2022, completing hat-trick in 9-runner handicap at this C&D (11/8) 21 days ago. Probably does enough to stay ahead of the handicapper and 4-timer certainly possible.

Form: 2/82-111

Off 5 months, career best when winning 8-runner handicap (9/1) at this C&D 21 days ago. This is tougher.

Sole win in 6f handicap here last June. Off 168 days. Unproven over this trip and might need this in any case. Others preferred.

9/4

C&D winner. Won 12-runner handicap (13/8) at Chelmsford City (6f) 27 days ago, making up plenty of ground to lead final strides. More to come and leading claims.

Forecasts

Got No Dollars (9/4), Thapa VC (5/2), Dembe (9/2), Zhui Feng (5/1), Follow Your Heart (8/1), Encouraged (11/1), Main Target (12/1), Sayifyouwill (14/1), Lockdown (22/1), Sir Titan (33/1), Johnny Reb (66/1), Twilight Heir (80/1), Gosnay Gold (125/1)

A host of thriving sorts in a red-hot race, with GOT NO DOLLARS the one fancied to keep his winning run going. He's thrived for Stuart Williams and remains a well-handicapped horse judged on his latest success at Chelmsford. He's preferred to Dembe and Thapa Vc who are on 4-timers.
