Trinity Girl²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 82| C

6/1

Course winner. Latest win here in February. 12/1, last of 5 in minor event at Kempton (16f) 26 days ago. Likely to be back on her game returns to handicap company.

Form: 74-2115

(8)

Bakersboy⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Josephine Gordon| T: P S McEntee| OR: 74

7/1

Career best when winning 4-runner minor event at Lingfield (10f, AW, 9/2) 8 days ago, very much having run of race. Goes up in trip and looks vulnerable under a penalty.

Form: 573-221

(5)

High Wells^v²²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: Rob Hornby| T: F O'Brien| OR: 78

12/1

16/1, first run since leaving Graeme McPherson when fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 22 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Not one to write off.

Form: 21514/5

Summertime Romance¹⁸³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: N Callan| T: M Botti| OR: 77

5/2

Lightly-raced winner. 9/1, good second of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, soft). Off 6 months. Going the right way when last seen and type to do better as a 4yo.

Form: 53412-

(6)

Koeman³³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: J F Egan| T: M R Channon| OR: 76

11/2

Creditable second of 6 in handicap (16/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 33 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Should be thereabouts once again.

Form: 58-3242

(4)

Baileys Derbyday³⁰⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 74

4/1

5/1, last of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, good to firm). Boasts some strong early-season form from last year, and this doesn't look like a particularly strong race.

Form: 5/52226-

(2)

Frankly Mr Shankly^p,t⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: B A Curtis| T: O Murphy| OR: 73| C

9/1

Course winner. 9/1, last of 9 in handicap at this course (10f) 49 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Others more persuasive.

Form: 22254-9

(7)

Yagood¹⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Charlie Bennett| T: J Parr| OR: 70

11/1

Four wins from 11 runs last year. Good third of 13 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 10/3). Off 148 days. First and second from that race have both gone in since, so can't be taken lightly.

Form: 212533-

Forecasts

Summertime Romance (5/2), Baileys Derbyday (4/1), Koeman (11/2), Trinity Girl (6/1), Bakersboy (7/1), Frankly Mr Shankly (9/1), Yagood (11/1), High Wells (12/1)

BAILEYS DERBYDAY was progressive prior to a tame effort to end his 2021 campaign and, while he has a 10-month absence to overcome, he's worth chancing to open his account with the potential for further improvement this term. Summertime Romance is also of interest on seasonal debut and the consistent Yagood is worth considering with his latest form having been boosted.
