Laura's Breeze²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Loughnane| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 60| D

11/2

Off the mark at Wolverhampton in November. Run best excused when seventh of 12 in handicap (10/3) at the same course (8.6f) 29 days ago, doing too much too soon from wide draw. Enters calculations returned to 7f.

Form: 362157-

King Of Speed^t¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Finley Marsh| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 58

17/2

Continued in good heart when fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 8/1) 12 days ago, caught further back than ideal having been slowly away. Can give his running again.

Form: 753534-

Rivas Rob Roy^b¹²²

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: J Gallagher| OR: 58| D

80/1

Four wins from 12 runs in 2023, completing a hat-trick at Brighton (all at 8f) in June. Ended the season with a below-par effort when sixth of 7 in handicap at the same C&D (good, 9/1) in September. Others preferred.

Flying Panther^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 58| C

7/2

Successful twice in 2023, including here in September. Below form on first outing since leaving Tom Ward when eighth of 11 in handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 2 weeks ago. Could fare better with cheekpieces back on.

Form: 621768-

Ben Dikduk²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: K P De Foy| OR: 57

4/1

In first-time cheekpieces, not in the same form as on his stable debut when sixth of 12 in handicap (7/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 24 days ago, racing freely. Still remains early days for his current yard, though.

Form: 864336-

Merry Minister²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: William Carson| T: B R Johnson| OR: 57| D

25/1

Shaped better than result when sixth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 16/1) 3 weeks ago. Continues to fall in the weights but more needed to take advantage as he goes significantly back down in trip.

Form: 007676-

No News²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 57| CD

11/2

Finally gained a first success when winning 13-runner handicap (10/1) at this C&D 3 weeks ago, well on top finish. Task is now to be able to back that up.

Form: 652551-

Stella Hogan²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Tom Marquand| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 57| CD

4/1

Opened account at this C&D in October. After 8 weeks off, again ran well when second of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 7/1) 27 days ago, denied clear run approaching final 1f. Major player.

Form: 556812-

(3)

Nubough^t²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: David Probert| T: M Pattinson| OR: 56

11/1

Twenty-one runs since his last win back in 2021. Ran respectably when fifth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 27 days ago. May just be vulnerable once more.

Form: 732335-

Forecasts

Flying Panther (7/2), Stella Hogan (4/1), Ben Dikduk (4/1), No News (11/2), Laura's Breeze (11/2), King Of Speed (17/2), Nubough (11/1), Merry Minister (25/1), Rivas Rob Roy (80/1)

STELLA HOGAN has shown improved form on her last 2 starts, getting off the mark in good style at this C&D in October before meeting trouble when runner-up on her latest outing. She is taken to resume winning ways, though Laura's Breeze is better drawn than on her last 2 races and isn't taken lightly. No News is also considered.
