First Snowfallb111
Age: 5|  Weight: 9-11| J: Mr Taylor Fisher(5)| T: A Watson| OR:  54
Fair maiden who hasn't shown much in 5 handicaps, the latest at Lingfield 11 days ago. First-time blinkers need to have a positive effect.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Hart| T: R Menzies| OR:  50
Mark on the slide but it's hard to be inspired by recent efforts. The refitting of the blinkers he wore in France will need to make a big difference. Would need to see market support to consider.

Forecasts

Capparis (7/2), Laoch Gach La (5/1), Big Dutchie (5/1), Mister Falsetto (6/1), First Snowfall (13/2), Laconic (8/1), Bobby Shaftoe (14/1), Justathimble (14/1), Mintnthat (16/1), Scheggi (20/1), Pasha Bay (25/1), Kodiaclaim (33/1)

Verdict

CAPPARIS reacted positively to cheekpieces when third at Wolverhampton and, less exposed than most of these, is worth a chance to build on that. Mister Falsetto ran well at Doncaster when last seen in the summer and is a possible threat if primed for this comeback run. Big Dutchie also makes the shortlist after a decent second at Wolverhampton last time.
