Humaniste⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-4| J: Mr Taylor Fisher⁽⁷⁾| T: J Tickle| OR: 67

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: A Kirby| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 66| CD

9/4

3-time C&D winner, including this race last year. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Stratford (22f, good) 14 days ago. Dropped to a handy mark and very much on the radar.

7/4

16/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Salisbury (14.2f, good to firm) 83 days ago, running on. This could be the day he breaks his duck.

Hidden Pearl¹⁹

5/2

13/2, second of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, good) 19 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Clearly capable in a handicap like this but she's a 28-race maiden.

Form: 240-422

Forecasts

Sir Joseph Swan (7/4), Hidden Depths (9/4), Hidden Pearl (5/2), Gordons Aura (11/4), Humaniste (9/1), Reel Of Fortune (22/1)

SIR JOSEPH SWAN has shown enough to suggest he can win a race like this and is taken to open his account back from a break. Last year's winner Hidden Depths looks the danger. Market support for Gordons Aura would need taking seriously.
