Eased in weights and duly confirmed promise of last run when making all at Newcastle (1m) 7 days ago. Handy draw to operate from and possibilities under a penalty.
|
Maiden who ran right up to best on back of an absence when runner-up at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 5 days ago, headed well inside final 1f and pulling clear of remainder. Well treated if able to back that up now.
|
5-y-o who offered some promise initially in maiden/novice company on turf/AW last year. Given a break/gelded subsequently and interesting what the market makes of him now handicapping.
|
11/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 25 days ago, not seen to best effect in racing wide. Now operating 3 lb below last winning mark but couple of others make greater appeal for win purposes.
|
Winner at Chelmsford (1m) in October. 17/2, ninth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 19 days ago, ridden 3f out and fading. Blinkers back on but more needed if he's to double his career tally here.
|
C&D winner. Last of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (1m, AW) 53 days ago, in rear and never on terms. Short break needs to have perked him up.
|
33/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable third of 7 in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago, no extra final 1f. Ease in class can only help now.
|
Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs. 14/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 23 days ago, plugging on. Significantly down in trip.
|
Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. 3/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 13 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time and likely type to bounce back.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 87 days ago, finding little. Tongue strap on 1st time.
|
C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in December. 20/1, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Not ruled out.

Forecasts
Asdaa (2/1), Bond Boy (9/4), Claddaghduff (5/1), Hopeman Harbour (17/2), De Vegas Kid (14/1), Recuerdame (14/1), Faithful Spirit (14/1), Haseef (18/1), Abstract (33/1), Dynakite (40/1), Six O'clock Swill (50/1)
ASDAA confirmed more positive signs and capitalised on his much-reduced mark to score in determined style over this trip at Newcastle 7 days ago. Wisely turned out under a penalty, he has a handy draw to operate from and earns the vote. Bond Boy, who ran well back from a break at Wolverhampton recently, is an obvious threat, with Faithful Spirit and handicap-debutant Claddaghduff others worth a second look.
- Asdaa2/1
- Bond Boy9/4
- Faithful Spirit14/1
