28/1

Form: 111292-

Chola Empire¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Spencer| T: D M Simcock| OR: 77| D

5/2

Showed improved form when resuming winning ways in 11-runner handicap (3/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 14 days ago. Can give another good account.

Form: 5724-51

Forecasts

Kingdom Come (10/11), Chola Empire (5/2), Diocles Of Rome (10/1), Dynamic Talent (12/1), Tintoretto (16/1), Sayifyouwill (18/1), Watermelon Sugar (28/1), Mohareb (33/1)

After 17 months off, KINGDOM COME got off the mark in very good style at this C&D 16 days ago and he can make a successful handicap debut with plenty of improvement to come. Chola Empire also arrives on the back of a recent win and is feared most, ahead of the 3-time C&D winner Sayifyouwill.
