12/1

Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 10/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 37 days ago, unable to sustain effort. On a handy mark if he can put that poor run behind him.

Forecasts

Triggered (9/4), Plumette (9/4), Little Earl (15/2), Dolly Gray (17/2), Tom Tulliver (9/1), Ikkari (11/1), Spartan Fighter (12/1), Poet (22/1)

PLUMETTE has a good record over C&D and shaped well from an unpromising position when third here recently, so she's marginally preferred to Triggered, who scored at Chelmsford last time. Spartan Fighter is probably the pick of the remainder.
