Resumed winning ways in 8-runner handicap at Huntingdon (25f) in February and ran at least as well in defeat from 6 lb higher there next time. Should remain competitive.

85/40

Showed improved form from out of the blue to get off the mark here (21.7f) in January and followed up under a penalty in similarly determined fashion. Went in snatches when well held in his hat-trick bid at Southwell, though.

Form: 9-88113

5/2

Long-standing maiden under Rules for Paul Henderson who opened his account in points at the ninth attempt last month. Hard to know what to expect back under Rules for new yard but is on a career-low mark at least.

Form: 5-FUPP1

10/3

Has cut little ice in his sole bumper/all 4 runs to date. Hard to recommend.

Forecasts

My Ticketyboo (85/40), Hatchet Jack (5/2), Dear Ralphy (5/2), The Wise Traveller (3/1), Tellairsue (10/3), Royal Lake (7/2), For Gina (8/1), Frontier General (14/1)

ROYAL LAKE cashed in on a much-reduced mark when staying on well to run down an upwardly-mobile youngster here 17 days ago, so he makes plenty of appeal from only 4 lb higher. Dear Ralphy was set to make a winning handicap debut before falling 2 out at Plumpton recently and is an obvious threat from the same mark if none the worse. Handicap-debutante For Gina is another to bear in mind after catching the eye on her most recent outing.
