Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| OR: 104

16/5

Cosy winner at Southwell in November but hasn't fired in 3 subsequent outings. Goes down in trip back from a short break. Cheekpieces also back on.

No Recollection^t1²²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-13| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 103

11/1

Fairly useful Flat performer who took well to hurdles last summer, winning a 2m Worcester maiden. Has left Alan King since finishing sixth of 7 in a 2m Huntingdon handicap last autumn. One to note in the betting on his return to action for shrewd new stable.

Royle Steel⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 99| D

9/1

Fair 2m winner. Back on track when third at Catterick in February but has beaten only a couple home in his 2 outings since. Hard to know what to expect.

10/3

Fair Flat winner who opened account over hurdles in Sedgefield novice in April 2021. Lightly raced and little to get excited about since, finishing down the field in a handicap back at Sedgefield last month.

Form: 41F5/P9-

George Mallory¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Lewis Dobb⁽⁷⁾| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 76

9/4

First past the post at Uttoxeter last summer (subsequently disqualified for a banned substance). Easily best run this spring when second in C&D handicap 10 days ago. Claims if in similar form.

Form: DP2P5-2

Prospect House^p¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Danny McMenamin| T: P D Niven| OR: 75

5/1

Minor promise in his qualifying runs. Travelled well but faded to finish well held on 21f Kelso handicap debut 12 weeks ago. This return to a much shorter trip might help. Less exposed than a lot of these.

Form: P4P40-8

Forecasts

Zamond (11/8), George Mallory (9/4), Supreme Yeats (16/5), Tonyx (10/3), Prospect House (5/1), Royle Steel (9/1), No Recollection (11/1)

The most solid option here is ZAMOND whose latest Musselburgh second came in a competitive race. George Mallory could pose a threat if backing up his recent C&D second, while the drop back to 2m could benefit the unexposed Prospect House.
