Racing Again 2nd June Handicap

Obee Jo^p¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁷⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 56| CD

15/2

Winless last term but eased in weights and stepped up plenty on reappearance run when winning 9-runner C&D handicap 10 days ago by ¾ length from Mutanaaseq. Escapes a penalty for that and he's in the mix again from handy draw.

Form: 5997-91

Josiebond¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: J Garritty| T: M Walford| OR: 55| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Good second of 14 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, heavy, 10/1) 14 days ago, keeping on well without getting to one who got first run. Not out of things from 2 lb higher mark.

Form: 67316-2

Without Delay¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: D Swift| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 55

20/1

17/2, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (9f, good) 10 days ago, not ideally placed. Operating below last winning mark but this looks a more demanding affair.

Form: 74056-4

Rain Cap^v¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Sean Kirrane⁽³⁾| T: J Riches| OR: 55| C| D

25/1

Course winner. 12/1, 9 lengths eighth of 9 to Obee Jo in handicap at this C&D (good) 10 days ago, pushed along 3f out and always behind. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 409-048

The Waiting Game^t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: B A Curtis| T: Jack Jones| OR: 53

18/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford (1m) 21 days ago. More needed.

Jackmeister Rudi²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Connor Beasley| T: K Scott| OR: 53| BF| C

14/1

Course winner. 4/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to soft) 25 days ago, weakening final 1f. Back up in trip.

Form: 7-06485

Liberty Breeze¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Phil Dennis| T: S Whitaker| OR: 51| CD

16/1

Dual C&D winner. 13/2, 4¾ lengths seventh of 9 to Obee Jo in handicap at this C&D (good) 10 days ago, possibly still in need of the run. Not discounted operating from last winning mark.

Form: 1170-07

Brides Bay^b²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Garritty| T: S England| OR: 51

80/1

Maiden (best form on AW for Richard Hughes) who has finished well held on 3 of her 4 starts for present yard, very slowly away and always behind when eleventh in 12-runner Doncaster handicap (6f) 26 days ago. Can only be watched at present.

Form: 4640-00

Mutanaaseq¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: Mr Taylor Fisher⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 50

4/1

Twenty six runs since last win in 2021. Good ¾-length second of 9 to Obee Jo in handicap at this C&D (good, 13/2) 10 days ago, keeping on well. Claims of being in the mix again with a repeat for all his losing run is off-putting.

Form: 76-6662

Mr Jetman³^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 55| D

5/4

Going the right way in handicaps, running out a good winner of 15-runner Redcar handicap (7f) 3 days ago. Remains less exposed than most and he's of firm interest under a penalty.

Form: 764321

(11)

Oh So Audacious³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Harry Davies⁽³⁾| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 47

17/2

First run since leaving Chris Wall when bit below form fourth of 12 in handicap (10/3) at Brighton (8f, good) 33 days ago. Still, feasible to think she can step up on that and she's operating from a basement mark. Interesting if market speaks in her favour.

Form: 50476-4

(5)

My Beauty²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: A Elliott| T: Ronald Thompson| OR: 45

66/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap at Brighton (1m, good, 50/1) 22 days ago, very slowly away. First run for yard after leaving Roger Ingram.

Form: 000877

Naughty Ted⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: A Mullen| T: L Bailey| OR: 47

100/1

17/2, tenth of 12 in handicap at Redcar (6f, heavy) 45 days ago, always behind. Others make more appeal.

Form: 266-670

Forecasts

Mr Jetman (5/4), Mutanaaseq (4/1), Obee Jo (15/2), Oh So Audacious (17/2), Josiebond (11/1), Jackmeister Rudi (14/1), Liberty Breeze (16/1), The Waiting Game (18/1), Without Delay (20/1), Ginato (20/1), Rain Cap (25/1), My Beauty (66/1), Brides Bay (80/1), Naughty Ted (100/1)

MR JETMAN ran out a good winner at Redcar 3 days ago and, turned out under a penalty, he gets the nod to follow up with further progress not out of the question. Recent C&D winner Obee Jo and Josiebond head up the dangers, with Oh So Audacious and Mutanaaseq others worthy of a mention.
