15/2

First run since leaving William Stone when creditable fourth of 9 in handicap (50/1) at Kempton (1m) 24 days ago, never nearer. Claims if she can build on that.

Dark Kris^p,t⁶⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Elle-May Croot⁽⁷⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 52| CD

11/1

C&D winner in September. Did too much too soon when last of 8 in handicap (11/4) at Lingfield (1m) 60 days ago. More than capable of going close from his mark.

16/1

AW winner at Lingfield last April. Also runner-up twice on turf later in 2022. Much depends on whether he's primed after 6 months off.

7/4

Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 5/1, bit below form fifth of 10 in classified event at Wolverhampton (7f) 22 days ago but is feasibly handicapped if bouncing back to his best.

Forecasts

Send In The Clouds (7/4), Fact Or Fable (5/2), Channel Packet (10/3), Eastern Star (11/2), Simply Gorgeous (15/2), Dark Kris (11/1), Rivas Rob Roy (16/1)

CHANNEL PACKET knows where the winning post is over C&D and may prove the answer to this concluding handicap. Dark Kris has had excuses for below-par efforts on his last couple of starts and may provide the chief threat ahead of Simply Gorgeous, who is entitled to build on her recent comeback outing for new trainer Phil McEntee.
