Goodnight Charlie²³

Age: 12| Weight: 11-12| J: Alex Chadwick⁽⁷⁾| T: C Fryer| OR: 98

9/2

Usually all or nothing with this veteran mare, making all under this rider at Fakenham on New Year's Day. Tame efforts next 2 starts before close second at Fakenham last month. Player if in the mood.

Form: 3-P1PP2

Tikk Tock Boom^p²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 11-11| J: C J Todd⁽³⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 97

12/1

On a good mark judged on form a few seasons back but she hasn't shown much in 3 starts since returning from a lengthy absence in November.

Form: 273/646

Artemision^p²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Kielan Woods| T: B Pauling| OR: 94

7/2

Best effort to date when runner-up at Taunton (23f) in January. Better effort since when third at Huntingdon last month, doing well to finish as close as he did after a bad mistake at the 15th. Eased another 2 lb and needs considering.

Form: 4P4203

Largy Nights^p1²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Paul O'Brien| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 84

7/1

Off 2 years (finished lame on debut fifth) and not figured either start over hurdles. Offered little on chase/handicap bow at Huntingdon last month. Plenty to prove now tried in headgear.

Form: 325/576

Earcomesbob^t1¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Archie Bellamy⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Pritchard| OR: 82

9/4

Point winner. Only modest form under Rules but has been placed in 3 handicap chases. Likely to be competitive again if latest run can be forgiven. Tongue strap on 1st time.

Form: P23325

High Counsel^b⁴³

Age: 13| Weight: 10-8| J: S Bowen| T: G Hanmer| OR: 80

6/1

At the veteran stage now but change of running style seemed to perk him up when fourth of 9 at Carlisle. Ran no sort of race reverted to hold-up tactics at Chepstow since.

Form: 86454P

Kingston King^p,t²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Philip Armson⁽⁷⁾| T: J Coulson| OR: 80

17/2

Off the mark over fences at Newton Abbot in June and back to winning ways under an attacking ride at Bangor (17f) in December. Just the one decent effort since, however, and struggled on debut for this yard at Huntingdon.

Form: 3173P6

Forecasts

Earcomesbob (9/4), Artemision (7/2), Goodnight Charlie (9/2), High Counsel (6/1), Largy Nights (7/1), Kingston King (17/2), Tikk Tock Boom (12/1)

ARTEMISION did well to finish as close as he did when third at Huntingdon last time and this 6-y-o is taken to break his duck eased another 2 lb. Low-mileage 7-y-o Earcomesbob rates the main threat if his latest run at Chepstow can be forgiven, while Goodnight Charlie can also make her presence felt if in the mood.
