Sarah's Verse¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽³⁾| T: R Harris| OR: 77| CD

10/3

C&D winner who added to her tally at Windsor (5f) in August and ran right back to best when second of 11 in a C&D handicap 10 days ago. Promising apprentice takes off valuable 3 lb again and she's entitled to be thereabouts.

9/2

Enjoyed a highly productive 2021, gaining seventh victory of the year over 5f here in December. Better for Chepstow reappearance when twice a runner-up in Windsor handicaps (at 5f) last month and she's shortlisted back at 6f.

Form: 14-7522

Grand Cru Gaga⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Mohammed Tabti⁽⁷⁾| T: P & O Cole| OR: 75| D

5/2

Low-mileage 3-y-o. Career best when winning 7-runner maiden at Ffos Las (6f) 48 days ago, keeping on well. Further progress not ruled out now sights are set on handicaps.

Form: 9-341

Cashew⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Connor Planas⁽⁷⁾| T: G Boughey| OR: 73| D

15/2

Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 40/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 7 days ago, staying on final 1f. Not out of things from this sort of mark with her rider also taking off a valuable 7 lb.

Form: 044975

Sharron Macready²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Stefano Cherchi⁽³⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 68| D

18/1

Mehmas filly. Off the mark at second attempt in a Nottingham maiden (6f) in July but proved too free when coming home last of 8 under a penalty in a Southwell novice (6f) 4 weeks ago. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 218

Bonita B^p¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Tom Marquand| T: M R Channon| OR: 68| CD

6/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Epsom in August. 8/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Bounce back certainly not ruled out given overall profile.

Form: 621217

Basholo⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Shane Gray| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 61

7/1

Shed maiden tag at Leicester (5f) in June. Never figured on softer ground at Hamilton next time but quickly back to form, close-up fifth in 13-runner handicap back at latter-named venue 9 days ago. Should go well again.

Forecasts

Grand Cru Gaga (5/2), Sarah's Verse (10/3), Cherish (9/2), Bonita B (6/1), Basholo (7/1), Cashew (15/2), Electric Love (15/2), Sharron Macready (18/1)

A competitive fillies' handicap despite the small field with the vote in favour of CHERISH. Twice a runner-up in 5f handicaps at Windsor last month, she remains on a workable mark and looks sure to go well again returned to 6f. Basholo and Sarah's Verse may merge as the chief threats.
