Whitcliffe⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 63

9/4

9/4, possibly found the race coming too soon when sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 45 days ago. First success may not be far away.

28/1

Calculus^p¹⁰^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: Sara Ender| OR: 45| CD

13/2

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, returned to form from out of the blue when won 9-runner handicap (50/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago, going clear soon after halfway and closed down only late on. No good thing to reproduce that sort of form under a penalty.

Form: 9000-01

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Rowan Scott| T: B Rothwell| OR: 45

Forecasts

Whitcliffe (9/4), Scottish Dancer (3/1), Let Her Loose (18/5), Calculus (13/2), Flippin' Eck (12/1), Prophesise (16/1), Violette Szabo (16/1), Valley Of Flowers (28/1), Gloryella (28/1)

Plenty in with a shout but preference is for SCOTTISH DANCER. Jedd O'Keeffe's charge showed much more than previously when sixth in a Newcastle novice last time, and with his pedigree suggesting he'll be suited by this 1½m trip, he's fancied to make a winning start to life in handicaps. Let Her Loose is going through a good spell at present so she heads the dangers, ahead of Whitcliffe.
