Novak³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 65| BF| CD

11/2

C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 11/8, fourth of 5 in handicap at this C&D 36 days ago. Clearly backed as though a lot better was expected there and one to note now.

Form: 223-294

Pink Parfait⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Oliver Stammers⁽³⁾| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 65| C

9/4

Promising individual. Course winner. One win from 3 runs last year. 8/1, good third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 7 days ago, left with too much to do. Has to be taken seriously with prospect of more to come.

Form: 316-3

Age: 9| Weight: 9-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 61| CD

12/1

Five-time C&D winner. Four wins from 14 runs last year. 22/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 13 days ago, slowly away. Others more persuasive.

Form: 927-238

Dr Rio¹⁵⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: G Lee| T: P T Midgley| OR: 60| D

25/1

8/1, respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (10.2f), unable to sustain effort. Off 157 days. Significantly down in trip.

Kingwell^b,t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: George Wood| T: Mrs I G-Leveque| OR: 60

8/1

28/1, career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 17 days ago, kept up to work. 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent bold follow-up bid.

Form: 53390-1

9/1

18/1

Four-time C&D winner. Creditable sixth of 13 in minor event (20/1) at this C&D 8 days ago. Has work to do in this grade of handicap.

Forecasts

Pink Parfait (9/4), Jems Bond (9/2), Novak (11/2), Kingwell (8/1), Saisons D'Or (9/1), Macho Pride (9/1), Bobby Joe Leg (12/1), Deolali (18/1), Dr Rio (25/1), Thrave (28/1)

PINK PARFAIT won a novice at the track during the autumn and this low-mileage 4-y-o looks ahead of her mark having shaped very well in a race that wasn't run to suit at Southwell a week ago. Novak was heavily backed last time and he should be a factor, with last-time-out winner Kingwell another to note.
