Bearaway⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: D Swift| T: S Spencer| OR: 83| D

20/1

Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap (11/1) at Windsor (1¼m, good to soft) 47 days ago (final start for Hughie Morrison). Ran well on AW earlier in career.

Form: 641431

Daheer¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Billy Loughnane⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 80| C

12/1

Five-time course winner, the latest in April. Creditable sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (9.5f, 25/1) 14 days ago, not ideally placed. Up in trip.

Form: 751336

Athmad¹⁶⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: P Mulrennan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 79| C

25/1

Five-time course winner. 9/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Beverley (1¼m, good to firm) when last seen in June. Back up in trip. Been off for 5 months so got to be a chance he'll need it.

Form: 766494

(5)

Freak Out³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Joanna Mason| T: G Tutty| OR: 79

12/1

Latest win at Newcastle (1¼m) in October but not in the same form back there since.

Form: 574617

(3)

Queen Of Ipanema^t²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: W Buick| T: G Boughey| OR: 80| CD

2/1

Big improver since switched to handicaps with a tongue strap added, completing a rapid 4-timer in Class 6 events when readily seeing off 11 rivals at Newcastle (12.5f) 22 days ago. In a higher grade now but still very much the one to beat.

Form: 091111

(7)

Nolton Cross⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Cieren Fallon| T: H Palmer| OR: 77| BF| C

2/1

Course winner. 7/4, creditable second of 9 in handicap over C&D 5 days ago. Should be thereabouts.

Form: 920282

(4)

Obsidian Knight²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: David Egan| T: T Kent| OR: 71| D

10/3

Latest win at Lingfield in October. 10/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap over C&D 21 days ago, not ideally placed. Likely to go well.

Forecasts

Queen Of Ipanema (2/1), Nolton Cross (2/1), Obsidian Knight (10/3), Daheer (12/1), Freak Out (12/1), Bearaway (20/1), Athmad (25/1)

There's a good chance the handicapper has yet to get the better of QUEEN OF IPANEMA who can make it 5 in a row. Obsidian Knight shaped quite well here last time and gets the nod for the forecast spot ahead of Nolton Cross.
