Pocket The Profit⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Jim Crowley| T: G Boughey| OR: 84| BF| C| D

4/1

Course winner. Respectable second of 8 in handicap at this C&D (5/4) 7 days ago. 3 lb higher mark makes life trickier but he should give another good account.

Form: 307432

Vespasian²²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: R Havlin| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 82| D

4/1

Promising individual. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Bit below form fifth of 13 in handicap (17/2) at Newmarket (6f, good). Off 7 months/gelded. Well bred sort is still unexposed and could get back on track returned to AW.

Form: 3-12165

Abbey Heights²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 80| CD

9/4

Showed a game attitude and produced a career best when winning 11-runner handicap (9/4) at this C&D 21 days ago. Still low mileage for his age and has to be taken seriously.

Form: 3210-41

Minesbiggerthanurs²⁸⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: S M Levey| T: M Appleby| OR: 79| D

33/1

Lightly-raced winner. 10/1, third of 4 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f). Off 9 months. Very hard to make a case for on these terms.

Form: 51-393

(8)

Ahlawi¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: D Swift| T: S Dixon| OR: 79| CD

9/1

Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D (3/1) 12 days ago, driven out. Respected from 3 lb higher mark.

Form: 2-76201

Intervention^p⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: O McSweeney⁽⁵⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 78| CD

7/1

C&D winner. 7 wins from 23 runs this year. Left poorly placed last time but he's certainly capable of going well in this type of event and holds frame claims.

Form: 236437

(3)

Rattling⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 74| CD

7/1

3-time C&D winner this year, most recently in November. 6/1, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 4 days ago. Merits consideration.

Form: 771713

(5)

Amber Dew¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 74| D

22/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2021 but attracted support and bounced back to form when second of 7 in handicap at this C&D (13/2) 12 days ago. Not completely discounted.

Form: 054052

(10)

Neptune Legend^t⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: J F Egan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 72

80/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 33/1, fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, good to soft) 77 days ago. Still yet to match his best form for this yard and others are preferred.

Form: 953070

(9)

Corinthia Knight^p⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: Sydney Cale⁽⁷⁾| T: A Watson| OR: 70| C| D

80/1

Course winner has also scored 3 times at Pontefract this season but form has tailed off recently and others make more appeal.

Form: 119708

Forecasts

Abbey Heights (9/4), Pocket The Profit (4/1), Vespasian (4/1), Intervention (7/1), Rattling (7/1), Ahlawi (9/1), Amber Dew (22/1), Minesbiggerthanurs (33/1), Corinthia Knight (80/1), Neptune Legend (80/1)

ABBEY HEIGHTS looked one to keep on the right side of when scoring over C&D last month and can make light work of a 4 lb rise to follow up. Vespasian is still unexposed on AW and is worth keeping an eye on after 7 months off, with Rattling and Ahlawi others to consider.
