Far Too Beautiful^p1²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: William Carson| T: M J Attwater| OR: 58| C

8/1

Ran out a rare winning newcomer for this yard over 11.6f here 12 months ago but never kicked on in novice/handicap company thereafter. Never figured when last of 7 on return here (12f, AW) 24 days ago and much more needed here. Cheekpieces on.

Form: 05676-7

Taqseemaat¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 56

11/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 16 days ago, going off too hard. Steps up further in trip now and it does remain early days.

Form: 6-7750

Tibbie Dunbar³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Dane O'Neill| T: W S Kittow| OR: 56

8/11

Facile winner over hurdles at Exeter in November who arrives having ran well when second of 13 in handicap at Bath (14f, good to soft) 35 days ago, clear of rest. Has good chance on form.

Form: 777/50-2

Spirit Of Jacob⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Stefano Cherchi⁽³⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 54

22/1

Casamento filly who has showed glimmers of promise in a trio of novice/maiden events at up to 12f on AW. Will hold more chance now handicapping and worth noting if market vibes are positive.

Form: 3-68

Infinite Beauty¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Hobson| OR: 54

125/1

Maiden in this sphere for James Tate who has struggled to make an impact over hurdles for new yard more recently, well held when pulled up on handicap debut at Fakenham (20f) 16 days ago. Hard to warm to back on the level.

Henry The Fifth^p,t¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: J Quinn| T: A Carson| OR: 50

15/2

Fourth of 6 in handicap (125/1) at this course (13f, good) 12 days ago, staying on final 1f without posing a threat. Operatng from long way out of the weights then, so this more suitable at least.

Form: 5-80794

(7)

Gearing's Point⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: George Bass⁽⁵⁾| T: M R Channon| OR: 47

5/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 40 days ago, running on without posing a threat. Longer trip needs to have a positive effect now.

Form: 0/6796

(3)

Laetoli⁴⁰²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: K T O'Neill| T: Miss S West| OR: 45

28/1

Visored for 1st time, last of 9 in handicap (28/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f), slowly away. Off 13 months. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Mick Channon. Plenty to find on form.

Forecasts

Tibbie Dunbar (8/11), Gearing's Point (5/1), Henry The Fifth (15/2), Far Too Beautiful (8/1), Taqseemaat (11/1), Spirit Of Jacob (22/1), Laetoli (28/1), Infinite Beauty (125/1)

A winner over hurdles during the winter, TIBBIE DUNBAR brings the most solid form to the table having finished runner-up over this trip at Bath 5 weeks ago and a repeat should see her as the one to beat. Taqseemaat and Spirit of Jacob have less miles on the clock than most and may emerge next best.
