14/1

Deodar⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: R M Beckett| OR: 95

5/4

Newbury winner on debut last year and didn't need to improve to outclass 6 rivals in novice event at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 40 days ago. Makes handicap debut and limit not yet reached.

Form: 12-1

Lord Rapscallion²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 86| D

10/3

Twenty one runs since last win in 2020 but best effort for some time when second of 15 in handicap at Epsom (7f, good) 20 days ago. Up 3 lb but a repeat of that will see him bang there.

Form: 500-582

Dream Show²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Harry Davies⁽⁵⁾| T: C Hills| OR: 86| D

11/4

Easy to excuse reappearance and he produced a big career best when dead-heating in 8-runner handicap (10/1) at Newbury (7f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Very much the one to beat from 5 lb higher.

Forecasts

Deodar (5/4), Dream Show (11/4), Lord Rapscallion (10/3), Cliffs Of Capri (15/2), Azano (12/1), Pensiero D'Amore (14/1)

DREAM SHOW cranked his form up a notch when dead-heating in a solid-looking 3-y-o handicap at Newbury 3 weeks ago and a 5 lb rise looks pretty lenient. He can follow up, perhaps at the chief expense of Deodar and Lord Rapscallion.
