Rhinoplasty¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Sam Feilden⁽⁷⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 62| D

12/1

Didn't need to be at best when winning 8-runner seller at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 3/1) 13 days ago, kept up to work. Not discounted returned to handicap company from much-reduced mark.

Form: 1664-61

Kodebreaker²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: O McSweeney⁽⁵⁾| T: K A Ryan| OR: 62

13/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 7/2, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 28 days ago. That was his first start for 6 months and he may well come on for that here.

Form: 763-5

Kisses Of Fire^t⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: J P Sullivan| T: S Dixon| OR: 61

100/1

Winner at Dundalk (7f) in January but yet to fire for new yard, last of 8 in handicap (150/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 7 days ago. Hard to make a solid case for.

Ringo Starlight^b,t⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: P J McDonald| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 60| D

12/1

Latest win at Southwell in December. 9/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 44 days ago, weakening inside final 1f. No surprise to see him give another good account.

Form: 01-2534

Khurumbi^p¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: William Pyle⁽⁷⁾| T: E Bethell| OR: 60

4/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable second of 12 in handicap at Catterick (6f, soft, 18/5) 19 days ago. Can make presence felt.

Form: 4-422

(7)

Dandy Bay²¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 58

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 5 in nursery (16/1) at Catterick (5f, good to firm) in September, never on terms. Exploits in maiden/novice events previously weren't without promise though, and it remains early days.

Form: 6475-

(5)

Make A Prophet¹⁹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jonathan England| T: P T Midgley| OR: 58

28/1

Minor promise amidst greenness on second of 3 starts in novice/maiden company at 6f but never threatened either start in nurseries at up to 7f late last year. Needs to step up if he's to fgiure on return.

Form: 84990-

(2)

Thin Lizzy¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 56

22/1

7/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Catterick (6f, soft) 19 days ago, racing off the pace and never on terms. Eased 2 lb subsequently but others arrive with more pressing claims.

Form: 363-670

(12)

Angels Tale¹⁷⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁷⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 55

80/1

Produced easily his best effort when running on for third at Wolverhampton (7f) in September but failed to make an impact either start thereafter. She is at least operating from career-low mark on return.

Form: 689308-

(13)

Lethal Vision^b1¹⁷¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: K Stott| T: D H Brown| OR: 53

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 18/1, ninth of 13 in nursery at Newcastle (6f) in November, driven 2f out and fading final 1f. Needs to find some improvement if she's to feature.

Form: 6589-

(8)

Keep Me Happy¹⁸²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Stefano Cherchi⁽³⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 53

25/1

Stimulation filly who wasn't seen to best effect when midfield in 19-runner Redcar nursery (6f) on final start in October, short of room 2f out and not recover. Still, it emains early days in handicaps.

Form: 67480-

Stanley Snugfit⁷^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: P Mulrennan| T: R Menzies| OR: 45| D

6/4

16/1, career best when winning 16-runner handicap at Redcar (6f, good) 7 days ago by 3¾ lengths from Ey Up Its The Boss, comfortably. Carries penalty. Looks competitive on form.

Form: 7077-01

14/1

Below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Catterick (6f, soft, 7/1) 19 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Stanley Snugfit (6/4), Khurumbi (4/1), Kodebreaker (13/2), Lethal Vision (8/1), Rhinoplasty (12/1), Ringo Starlight (12/1), Makhan King (14/1), Highland Queen (14/1), Thin Lizzy (22/1), Keep Me Happy (25/1), Capall Mear (25/1), Make A Prophet (28/1), Dandy Bay (40/1), Angels Tale (80/1), Kisses Of Fire (100/1)

STANLEY SNUGFIT showed much-improved form to make his second start upon rejoining Rebecca Menzies a winning one at Redcar 7 days ago, making all and readily drawing clear. He can make a bold bid to follow up under a penalty. Khurumbi, who ran well at Catterick 19 days ago, is next best, ahead of Kodebreaker and Rhinoplasty.
