Lilkian⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Liam Wright⁽⁷⁾| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 72| C| D

7/2

4-time course winner. 9/2, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (6f, AW) 8 days ago, denied a run and forced to switch over 1f out. Not out of things from this sort of mark.

Form: 423326

Rainbow Mirage²²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: David Probert| T: S Lycett| OR: 67| CD

16/1

C&D winner who was successful 4 times in 6/7f handicaps for Mark Rimell last year but operating below best in 2 starts for Richard Hughes when last seen in September. Betting may prove a useful guide back from 7 months off/starting out for new yard.

Revolutionary Man²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: Billy Loughnane⁽³⁾| T: R Brisland| OR: 66| CD

5/2

C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, very good second of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 29 days ago. Needs to back that up now.

Porfin¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Molly Presland⁽⁷⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 65| C| D

7/1

Course winner. Creditable third of 6 in handicap (5/1) at Brighton (5.3f, good) 12 days ago, nearest finish. Significantly back up in trip.

Buraback^p1⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: L Morris| T: M Appleby| OR: 61| BF| CD

6/4

C&D winner. 15/8, best effort for present yard when second of 13 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces replace the hood now and he's very much one to consider operating 3 lb below last winning mark.

Form: 4-68842

(4)

Dazzerling^b1¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-5| J: Mollie Phillips⁽³⁾| T: Mrs L J Mongan| OR: 52

40/1

50/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (6f, heavy) 10 days ago, soon off bridle and always behind on back of 4 months off. Blinkers reached for turned out quickly but others make greater appeal.

Forecasts

Buraback (6/4), Revolutionary Man (5/2), Lilkian (7/2), Fiftyshadesofred (6/1), Porfin (7/1), Rainbow Mirage (16/1), Dazzerling (40/1)

BURABACK ran his best race yet since joining Mick Appleby when second in a C&D handicap 8 days ago and, operating 3 lb below his last winning mark, he could well be the answer here. Lilkian and Revolutionary Man head up the dangers.
