Lieutenant Rascal¹⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: George Scott| OR: 74| D

5/6

Winner at Brighton in September. 22/1, creditable eighth of 22 in minor event at Newmarket (6f, good to firm), making effort earlier than ideal. Off 142 days but he's one to consider.

Doctor Vuby^t³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 73

3/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 6/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, good second of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f) 36 days ago. That form has worked out well so he's a big player off an unchanged mark.

Form: 624-2

Bint Alfella^t1¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: S A Gray| T: K A Ryan| OR: 68

20/1

Fair form shown when runner-up on her first 2 starts but well below that level since, lat of six on her handicap debut at Newcastle (5f) 18 days ago. Tongue strap goes on for 1st time with lots more required.

Form: 22-66

Ziggy's Missile¹⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: L Morris| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 66

4/1

Modest maiden who wasn't disgraced when sixth of 12 in maiden (80/1) at Nottingham (5f, heavy). Off 153 days ahead of his handicap bow but can't be dismissed.

Form: 376-

Pinpoint^h1¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Rowan Scott| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 59| D

22/1

5f winner at Bath in August for Richard Hannon but off 13 weeks before a below-par sixth on stable debut in nursery at this C&D (40/1) 88 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 32326-6

Forecasts

Lieutenant Rascal (5/6), Doctor Vuby (3/1), Ziggy's Missile (4/1), Bint Alfella (20/1), Pinpoint (22/1)

Not the easiest handicap to assess but DOCTOR VUBY brings rock solid credentials to the table so is taken to gain a breakthrough success. The returning Lieutenant Rascal is much respected on just his second handicap start, while Bint Alfella figures on a handy mark if resurgent in a first-time tongue tie.
