Eltham Palace¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Olivia Haines⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 54

33/1

One win from 21 Flat runs. Winner at Chelmsford City in November. Eighth of 11 in handicap (7/1) at the same course (10f) 18 days ago. Possibilities back up in trip here if she puts her best foot forward.

Form: 54163-8

Lhebayeb^h¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Shepherd| T: V R A Dartnall| OR: 52

6/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Good second of 12 in handicap (17/2) at Southwell (11.1f) 12 days ago. A repeat of that performance would put her in the picture, though she'll probably find one or two good once more.

Form: 3/6439-2

Stormingin^b⁵¹

Age: 10| Weight: 9-9| J: Anna Gibson⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 52

50/1

Unreliable sort. Two wins from 48 Flat runs. Twenty-seven runs since last win in 2019. Respectable third of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 9/1) 51 days ago. Others make more appeal from a win point of view.

Tinchoo²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Joshua Bryan| T: H Main| OR: 51| C

8/1

10/1, career best when winning 12-runner minor event at this course (11f) 28 days ago, driven out. That's her sole success form 16 starts and more will be needed if she's to follow up back in handicap company.

Form: 54675-1

Princess Nieve^p1¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: G Boughey| OR: 52

7/2

Winner at Lingfield in January. 3/1, creditable second of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and likely to give another good account of herself.

Form: 606-142

Krypton Gold³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Mollie Phillips⁽³⁾| T: S Edmunds| OR: 50

5/2

22/1, bit below form fifth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Fakenham (20f, soft) 31 days ago. Performed well on latest Flat start back in October 2021 (final run for Sheila Lavery) and resumes in this sphere on an attractive mark. Makes polytrack debut.

Alnwick Castle⁵⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 51

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2 and hooded for 1st time (discarded here) when tenth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 54 days ago. Makes polytrack debut and probably best watched.

Form: 807/0-

Big Jimbo¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: G & J Moore| OR: 47

4/1

Good third of 10 in minor event at this course (11f, 14/1) 13 days ago, needing stiffer test. That was his first run for the best part of 2 years and, if able to build on that now pitched into a handicap, he should have a part to play in the finish.

Form: 00825/3

Miss Tiki^p,t²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: David Probert| T: M Roberts| OR: 46| D

33/1

Sixth of 8 in handicap (18/1) at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 27 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and needs to raise her game.

Form: 33684-6

Clooney⁵²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Aidan Keeley⁽⁵⁾| T: R Woodman| OR: 45

40/1

Respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 28/1). Probably best watched following a 17-month absence.

Form: 970607/

Chelsea Annie¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Elisha Whittington⁽⁵⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 47

28/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fifth of 10 in minor event (10/1) at this course (11f) 13 days ago. Not without each-way hope.

Form: 6848-45

Proud Warrior^p1²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Rossa Ryan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45

100/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Eleventh of 13 in minor event at Southwell (12.1f, 50/1) 22 days ago. Makes polytrack debut and cheekpieces on 1st time. Has work to do.

Form: 0070-0

Fellowship^t1²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Darragh Keenan| T: R Eddery| OR: 45

125/1

33/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 27 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time and needs to bounce back in a major way.

Forecasts

Krypton Gold (5/2), Princess Nieve (7/2), Big Jimbo (4/1), Lhebayeb (6/1), Tinchoo (8/1), Alnwick Castle (8/1), Kanuhura (20/1), Chelsea Annie (28/1), Miss Tiki (33/1), Eltham Palace (33/1), Clooney (40/1), Stormingin (50/1), Proud Warrior (100/1), Fellowship (125/1)

It's been a while since KRYPTON GOLD was last seen out on the Flat but he has subsequently made up into a decent hurdler for present connections and is appealing back in this sphere off a potentially handy mark. Big Jimbo put in good late work when third back from a lengthy absence here recently and is feared now moving into handicap company, while Princess Nieve and Eltham Palace are others to consider.
