Vape^p¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 61| D

11/1

Cheekpieces on first time, first run since leaving Tony Carroll when bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (7f) 11 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 6-48236

Glamorous Force³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Cieren Fallon| T: R Harris| OR: 61

4/1

Four wins from 18 runs last year. Good third of 11 in handicap (17/2) at Kempton (6f) 3 days ago. Merits consideration.

Form: 87-4433

Gherkin¹⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Rob Hornby| T: W S Kittow| OR: 60| D

9/2

In fine fettle in blinkers when last seen in the autumn, with a close second on turf at Bath (5f) sandwiched by 2 AW wins at Kempton (6f). Headgear is left off on return so possibly best watched this time.

Jessie Pye⁷⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Gina Mangan⁽⁵⁾| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 59

33/1

Hasn't beaten a rival in 2 AW starts this term and Macs Dilemma has to be considered the stable first string.

Form: 2349-70

Company Minx¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: S M Levey| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 57| D

10/1

200/1, ninth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (6f) on reappearance 10 days ago. Now a lot lower than when scoring at Newmarket last May but he'll need to have come on a bit for that run.

Form: 59457-9

(12)

Fly The Nest³³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Marquand| T: A W Carroll| OR: 56

20/1

14/1, good fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (1m) 33 days ago, having run of race. Goes down in trip for turf return. Tom Marquand a good booking for the stable.

Form: 669-785

(11)

Macs Dilemma^p²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 52| BF

5/2

Winner at Wolverhampton in December. 85/40, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) 24 days ago. Yard won this last year and Hollie Doyle takes the ride. Could be the answer.

Form: 1-46524

Papas Girl³²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Moore| OR: 50

15/2

Winner at Southwell in December. 11/2, creditable second of 9 in classified event there (6f) 32 days ago, not ideally placed. Big player if continuing the good work back on the grass.

Form: 1-87232

Fard^h³⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-10| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Blake| OR: 49| D

16/1

Hooded first time, ninth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (5f) 37 days ago. Back up in trip. Runner-up twice off higher marks on turf last summer.

Form: 62268-9

Rhubarb⁵⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: Josephine Gordon| T: R J Price| OR: 47

(15)

Amnaa^b²²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: William Carson| T: J J Bridger| OR: 45| D

33/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2020 but she was runner-up over C&D off a similar mark last summer. Much depends on whether she's primed after 7 months off.

Form: 978520-

Aventurina^t⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Charlie Bennett| T: J R Boyle| OR: 45

33/1

Hasn't been threatening her maiden status on AW this year and it remains to be seen if a switch to turf makes any difference.

Forecasts

Macs Dilemma (5/2), Glamorous Force (4/1), Gherkin (9/2), Grey Galleon (13/2), Papas Girl (15/2), Company Minx (10/1), Vape (11/1), Portelet Bay (14/1), Fard (16/1), Rhubarb (16/1), Symbol of Hope (16/1), Fly The Nest (20/1), Jessie Pye (33/1), Aventurina (33/1), Amnaa (33/1), Sparkling Diamond (50/1)

John O'Shea won this race 12 months ago and MACS DILEMMA may prove the answer to this tricky opener as he's been in good form on AW of late and has Hollie Doyle doing the steering. Papas Girl is another who arrives on the back of some good AW performances and heads the dangers along with Glamorous Force and former course scorer Grey Galleon.
