Spanish Angel¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 62| C| D

7/2

Course winner. Latest win at Newcastle in January. Not disgraced when eighth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (13/2) 11 days ago. May be sharper with that under his belt and comes here with yard amongst the winners.

Form: 25-4198

(9)

Josies Kid³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 61| D

9/2

Seventeen runs since sole win in 2021. 22/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 31 days ago, slowly into stride and always behind. Others more persuasive.

Form: 6587-60

Show Compassion³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 60

5/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 28/1) 38 days ago, weakening final 1f. Eased 2 lb ahead of this and not dismissed out of hand given it remains early days.

Form: 52-36

(7)

Red Walls¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: J F Egan| T: L Williamson| OR: 59| CD

11/2

3-time C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford (5f) in November. 22/1, very good second of 10 in handicap at this C&D 11 days ago, edged out entering final 1f. Claims with a repeat operating from last winning mark.

Form: 19067-2

Gustav Graves^h¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: George Eddery⁽⁷⁾| T: D Shaw| OR: 59| C| D

18/1

Course winner who ended last term in good form, signing off with success at Leicester (5f) in September. Shaped as if needing first start for 6 months when ninth in 10-runner C&D handicap 11 days ago and whilst he ought to be sharper here, he does have the widest draw to contend with.

Form: 53321-9

(4)

Admirable Lad²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham| OR: 55| CD

17/2

C&D winner. Three wins from 12 runs last year. Latest win here in September. 17 lengths last of 11 to Glorious Charmer in handicap (11/2) at this course (6.1f) 22 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 1126-30

(6)

Fair And Square^p²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: F Norton| T: R Harris| OR: 55

7/1

Remains a maiden after 30 Flat runs. 4/1, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 24 days ago, not ideally placed. Not taken lightly.

Form: 232-544

(3)

Pandemic Princess²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: D Swift| T: C Wallis| OR: 54

66/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 66/1, first run since leaving Alice Haynes when last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 21 days ago, slowly away. Not easy to make a case for.

Form: 267-888

(10)

Rockley Point^b¹³

Age: 10| Weight: 9-0| J: Phil Dennis| T: K Scott| OR: 51| D

9/1

Ended long losing run at Southwell (5f) in February and having run well when second over C&D next time, he duly resumed winning ways at Newcastle (5f) 13 days ago, digging deep under pressure. Can go well again returned to handicap company in this groove.

Form: 763121

Amazing Amaya^p²²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-0| J: Darragh Keenan| T: D Shaw| OR: 51| CD

12/1

Won 9-runner minor event at this C&D (7/1) 22 days ago by neck from Rockley Point, upsides final 1f and edging ahead late on. Fancied to give another good account.

Glorious Charmer³

Weight: 9-8| Age: 7

T: M Herrington J: Aidan Keeley

Forecasts

Glorious Charmer (3/1), Spanish Angel (7/2), Josies Kid (9/2), Show Compassion (5/1), Red Walls (11/2), Fair And Square (7/1), Admirable Lad (17/2), Rockley Point (9/1), Amazing Amaya (12/1), Gustav Graves (18/1), Pandemic Princess (66/1)

An open-looking contest with the narrow vote in favour of GLORIOUS CHARMER. He's been in good heart of late, again running with credit when third from the widest draw over 6f here 3 days ago and he looks sure to be in the mix once more. Fair And Square, for all he remains a maiden, is a threat along with Spanish Angel. Amazing Amaya is also worth a second look.
