9/2

In good form at Kempton last month, winning before finishing runner-up from 6 lb higher mark (both 1m). Left with too much to do when eighth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago and should bounce back quickly.

Cloch Nua³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 62| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Last of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 16/1) 33 days ago. Could be sharper with recent run now under belt but others more persuasive.

Ciara Storm¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 63

66/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 125/1, first run since leaving Freddie & Martyn Meade when last of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 19 days ago. Very hard to make a case for.

Forecasts

Prince Ali (11/4), Win Win Power (3/1), Dutch Kingdom (7/2), Cliffs Of Capri (4/1), Green Power (9/2), Monkmoor Pip (6/1), Cloch Nua (11/1), Star Of St James (33/1), Ciara Storm (66/1)

PRINCE ALI has continued to run well in defeat since scoring over C&D in September and this looks a decent opportunity for him to regain the winning thread. Cliffs of Capri remains one to be interested in despite a less-than-ideal draw, with Green Power also expected to bounce back having been left with too much to do over C&D last time.
