(1)

The Bay Warrior^p²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Rhys Clutterbuck⁽³⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 61| CD

9/4

C&D winner who again ran well when creditable head second of 10 to Pips Tune in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago, sticking to task. Better off at weights with that rival now and possibilities again.

Form: 70-0262

(6)

Mohassana²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: J Mitchell| T: A West| OR: 60

9/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1, bit below form third of 6 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, not quicken straight. However, it remains early days at least.

Form: 4343

(5)

Pips Tune¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 60| BF| CD

5/2

Excellent start to 2022, gaining third course victory over C&D in April, making all. Produced another solid display when fourth of 12 back here 13 days ago and foolish to rule out in present groove.

Form: 0-11214

(7)

Bayston Hill^p⁴⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: M D I Usher| OR: 60| CD

8/1

5-time C&D winner who ran well when third at Wolverhampton (12.2f) on penultimate start in November. Subsequent effort at Kempton was underwhelming but bounce back not ruled out from easing mark.

Form: 50-5436

(3)

Decoding³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 57

22/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, showed a bit more than previously when seventh of 12 in maiden at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 33 days ago. May do better again now handicapping.

Form: 077

(4)

No Such Luck^h,t¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: William Carson| T: R Ingram| OR: 57| D

4/1

Winner at Lingfield in February. 4/1, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 13 days ago, doing well to finish as close as he did coming from the rear. Has good chance on form.

Form: 0-66125

(2)

Bannergirl²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Joey Haynes| T: Mark Gillard| OR: 49

40/1

13/2, bit below form fifth of 14 in handicap at Redcar (7f, soft) 24 days ago, plugging on. Significantly back up in trip.

Form: 70327-5

Forecasts

The Bay Warrior (9/4), Pips Tune (5/2), No Such Luck (4/1), Mohassana (9/2), Bayston Hill (8/1), Decoding (22/1), Bannergirl (40/1)

Successful at Lingfield in February, NO SUCH LUCK did well to finish as close as he did when fifth in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago and he gets the nod with his present mark still looking within reach. The Bay Warrior and Pips Tune similarly arrive in good order and can also play a part.
