Wizard D'Amour⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: B A Curtis| T: K R Burke| OR: 80| BF| D

7/5

Respectable third of 9 in handicap (3/1) at Ripon (8f, heavy) 6 days ago. Likely to benefit from the return to 7f, and may still have a bigger performance in him.

Form: 4322-23

Ventura Rascal¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 78| CD

5/1

C&D winner. Five wins from 16 Flat runs. Three wins from 8 runs last year. 9/2, ninth of 10 in handicap at Leicester (8.2f, soft) 19 days ago, finding little. Others make more appeal.

Form: 71341-9

Reputation²⁴

25/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2019. First run since leaving Ian Williams when eighth of 18 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good, 80/1) 24 days ago. Hard to make a case for.

10/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2020. Sixth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 9/4) 71 days ago. Not one to write off.

Form: 782-246

(6)

Obee Jo^p¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 74| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year. 22/1, creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 14 days ago. Should strip fitter for that, so he's one to consider.

Form: 25127-5

(3)

Ghathanfar¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: T Eaves| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 73| D

12/1

Age: 7| Weight: 8-11| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁷⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 70| D

40/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2021. 11/1, thirteenth of 15 in handicap at Redcar (7f, soft). Off 169 days. Others make more appeal.

Jill Rose¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Phil Dennis| T: S Whitaker| OR: 69| C| D

17/2

Course winner. Latest win at Ayr in October. 11/1, good third of 13 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 14 days ago, running on. Likely to be thereabouts again from a handy mark.

Form: 65167-3

(10)

Temper Trap¹⁶⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 8-5| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 64| D

50/1

Three wins from 9 runs last year. Latest win at Ayr in October. Pulled up in novice hurdle (100/1) at Hexham (20.1f, soft) 166 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 718217-

Forecasts

Wizard D'Amour (7/5), Ventura Rascal (5/1), Safran (11/2), Jill Rose (17/2), Sir Maxi (10/1), Obee Jo (11/1), Ghathanfar (12/1), Reputation (25/1), True Blue Moon (40/1), Temper Trap (50/1)

WIZARD D'AMOUR ran a big race at Doncaster on reappearance and seemed stretched by 1m on testing ground at Ripon 6 days ago, so he's fancied to bounce back and gain his second career success. Jill Rose is a threat following her good third over C&D on reappearance and Obee Jo, who was fifth in that race, is another player.
