Down To The Kid¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: I Furtado| OR: 67| CD

15/8

Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at this C&D (5/1) 16 days ago, cosily. Excellent claims of landing the hat-trick.

Form: 9670-11

Belle Of Annandale¹⁷⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 65

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 5/1, sixth of 9 in minor event at Redcar (9f, good to soft). Off 174 days. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Bred to do better, so worth monitoring in the betting.

Form: 746-

(2)

Vaynor²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K Shoemark| T: C Hills| OR: 63

4/1

4/1, good fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 22 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Has a bigger performance in him, so merits consideration.

Form: 4575-44

(7)

Casi Crudo¹¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 60

6/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in minor event at Newcastle (10.2f, 40/1). Off 110 days. Type to make a better 3yo, so not discounted on handicap debut.

Form: 678-

(6)

Thermometer^p⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D Swift| T: S Dixon| OR: 58

14/1

Fourth of 5 in handicap (11/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 8 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 544534

(9)

Marmalashes^p1¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: S Donohoe| T: W J Haggas| OR: 55

22/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City 10 days ago, better placed than most. Limited on early evidence, so needs cheekpieces to bring about improvement.

Form: 4845

(8)

Away Wit Da Fairys¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 54

15/2

Winner at Lingfield in March. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (13.3f, 7/1) 10 days ago, not clear run. Should be thereabouts again.

Form: 313544

Foreshadow^b¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 52| BF

11/2

Seventh of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (13.3f, 9/4) 10 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Shaped well on penultimate start, so not one to write off.

Form: 6-64237

Ls Eleven^p1⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Paula Muir⁽³⁾| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 45

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, 3¾ lengths last of 6 to Down To The Kid in handicap at this C&D 45 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 680-6

Forecasts

Down To The Kid (15/8), Vaynor (4/1), Foreshadow (11/2), Casi Crudo (6/1), Away Wit Da Fairys (15/2), Belle Of Annandale (14/1), Thermometer (14/1), Marmalashes (22/1), Ls Eleven (40/1)

DOWN TO THE KID arrives firmly on the up and had something to spare when completing a C&D double last time, so he's a straightforward choice to defy a 5-lb rise despite the presence of Vaynor, who looked ahead of his mark when doing too much too soon at Wolverhampton last time. Belle of Annandale and Casi Crudo are both notable handicap debutants.
