Shallow Hal¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: C Horgan⁽⁷⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 87| CD

20/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford in November but he needs to shrug off a poor run at Kempton (6f) 14 days ago.

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 86| D

8/1

Hooded first time, not disgraced in face of a stiff task when 9 lengths third in 1m Newcastle conditions event 8 days ago. Back down in trip now.

Form: 00540-3

Adeb¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 83| D

5/2

Made light of a 17-month absence when showing much improved form to win a 6f Newcastle handicap 19 days ago. Low mileage so could have more to come if his problems are behind him.

Form: 24180/1

1/1

Big improver since blinkered, completing a hat-trick when seeing off Intervention by 1¾ lengths over C&D last Sunday. Had plenty in hand on that occasion and a 5 lb penalty doesn't look enough to prevent him making it 4 in a row.

Form: 75311-1

Intervention^p,h⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: J P Spencer| T: M Appleby| OR: 77| CD

11/2

C&D winner. Seven wins from 25 runs last year. Good 1¾ lengths second of 13 to Justcallmepete in handicap at this C&D (11/2) 6 days ago, albeit no match for the reopposing winner. Should go well again.

Forecasts

Justcallmepete (1/1), Adeb (5/2), Tyger Bay (11/4), Spirit Of Nguru (3/1), Intervention (11/2), Abolish (8/1), Shallow Hal (20/1)

JUSTCALLMEPETE had plenty in hand when seeing off Intervention over C&D last weekend and looks well treated under a 5 lb penalty. Intervention may be the one to chase him home again.
