Infinitive⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Jason Watson| T: D O'Meara| OR: 76

3/1

Low-mileage 4-y-o who ran up to best when runner-up in a C&D handicap in December, keeping on without posing a threat to better-positioned winner. Has since switched yards and no surprise to see her thereabouts.

Ring Fenced^p²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: William Carver⁽³⁾| T: A M Balding| OR: 74

4/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 8-runner handicap (25/1) at Kempton (11f) 22 days ago, in command final 1f and closed down only late on. Likely needs to pull out a little more again from revised mark.

Lady Loulou^b1¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 73

10/3

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable second of 7 in novice event at Chelmsford (10f) 12 days ago, challenging inside final 1f and running on. Blinkers go on for handicap debut and longer trip may eke out a little more progress.

Form: 342-2

Addosh²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: K Stott| T: S Edmunds| OR: 69

10/3

Multiple hurdles winner who ran respectably back on Flat when sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (11.1f) 25 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Yard going along nicely under both codes of late and she shouldn't be underestimated.

Form: 14423/6

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Darragh Keenan| T: R Spencer| OR: 67

14/1

Maiden. Visored for 1st time, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 14/1) 13 days ago, effort over 2f out and keeping on. Steps back up in trip now with blinkers the headgear of choice and mark has eased a little more.

Form: 24/568-3

Ready To Shine¹¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 70

16/1

Camelot filly. Steady progress in trio of novice/maiden events for Simon & Ed Crisford, fourth of 13 in maiden at Kempton (11f) in October. Changed hands for 25,000 gns thereafter and she may have more to offer now handicapping.

Form: 9/44-

Haven Lady^b⁹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 65| CD

8/1

Four wins from 17 runs last year, the latest over C&D in October. 11/2, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (14f) later that month. Possible she will prove vulnerable to some less exposed sorts here.

Forecasts

Infinitive (3/1), Lady Loulou (10/3), Addosh (10/3), Ring Fenced (4/1), Jubilee Girl (5/1), Haven Lady (8/1), Thefastnthecurious (14/1), Ready To Shine (16/1)

INFINITIVE ran up to her best when runner-up in a C&D handicap on her final start for Sir Michael Stoute, just unable to get on terms with a better-positioned winner. She earns the vote to come out on top, with Ring Fenced, Jubilee Girl and Addosh heading the dangers in an open-looking event.
