10/3

Maintained unbeaten record when winning 4-runner event on handicap debut at Newcastle (7.1f, 11/10) in December, despite still showing signs of greenness. From a smart family and could have even more to offer.

11/2

Again ran well when second of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (1m, 4/1) 77 days ago, clear of rest. Can give another good account with Billy Loughnane taking off a valuable 5 lb.

11/1

C&D winner. Again below form when eleventh of 13 in handicap (18/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 27 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 66-4050

Mulgrave^h,t⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Donagh O'Connor| T: J C McConnell| OR: 88| D

12/1

Overcame unfavourable circumstances when completing hat-trick in 8-runner handicap at Dundalk (1m, 9/2) 42 days ago, pulling hard in a slowly-run race. Not dismissed lightly in his current form.

Form: 04-2111

Keyser Soze^b⁵⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-8| J: Jason Hart| T: R Spencer| OR: 88| C| D

25/1

Course winner. Scored at Kempton in January, before left poorly placed when eighth of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 59 days ago. Blinkers applied at Kempton are quickly back on again.

Form: 4707-18

Aussie Banker⁹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: W Buick| T: R Hughes| OR: 87| BF| D

9/2

Three wins from 6 runs last year, with his latest success at Wolverhampton in December. Lost little in defeat when second of 13 in handicap (3/1) at Kempton (1m) 90 days ago, just failing. Respected.

Power of Darkness²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Harry Davies⁽³⁾| T: C Fellowes| OR: 86| D

28/1

Ran better than for a while when third of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (1m, 14/1) 21 days ago. Task is now to build on that effort.

Form: 309-583

On A Session²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: David Probert| T: T D Barron| OR: 86

25/1

Not seen to best effect when seventh of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 9/2) 27 days ago, rearing leaving stalls. Others more persuasive.

Form: 579-967

The Menstone Gem^p³⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: P Hanagan| T: Craig Lidster| OR: 85

16/1

After 13 weeks off, ran well when third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 15/2) 39 days ago, sticking to task. Needs to find more.

Forecasts

Dingle (11/4), Brewing (10/3), Aussie Banker (9/2), Final Voyage (11/2), Hafeet Alain (11/1), Mulgrave (12/1), Court Of Session (12/1), The Menstone Gem (16/1), On A Session (25/1), Keyser Soze (25/1), Power of Darkness (28/1), Amber Island (50/1)

BREWING won all 3 of his starts last year, still showing signs of greenness when making a successful handicap debut at Newcastle on his final outing, and he can extend his winning sequence with further progress to come. The main danger could be Aussie Banker who has been progressing nicely this winter, with Irish-raider Final Voyage another to consider.
