Marion's Boy^v¹²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R A Teal| OR: 62| D

10/3

Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. 6/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW), merely closing up late. Off 125 days. On a long losing run but worth a market check after a break.

Oyamal²⁰⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Grace McEntee⁽³⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 62

80/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 50/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 6 in maiden at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm), unable to sustain effort. Off 6 months. Others make more appeal.

Form: 0/3604-

(8)

Nasim²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: William Carson| T: M Pattinson| OR: 61| C

22/1

Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 8/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 26 days ago. Back up in trip. Others make more appeal.

Form: 0205-47

(7)

Twilight Guest^p¹⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: T P Queally| T: G G Margarson| OR: 60

5/1

8/1, creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at this C&D. Off 140 days. Shortlist material for all that he might strip fitter for the run.

Form: 298254-

(5)

Curtiz¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: David Probert| T: H Morrison| OR: 59| CD

8/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 6/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Could get back on track.

Form: 562-318

(1)

Hotspur Harry⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Eddery| OR: 58| BF| D

7/2

Unreliable sort. Two wins from 41 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. Good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D (5/2) 7 days ago, left with too much to do. Chance on old form.

Form: 500-772

(6)

Portoro¹¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Darragh Keenan| T: Martin Dunne| OR: 57| DWS

16/1

Eighth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 8/1), finding little. Off 115 days.

Form: 129758-

Bubblecraft^t1²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: A J Farragher| T: M Wigham| OR: 57

125/1

80/1, last of 6 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f) 24 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Form: 8319-06

(3)

Platinum Prince^v⁶⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: H Crouch| T: G & J Moore| OR: 57| D

7/2

Unreliable individual. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 7/2, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 60 days ago, slowly away. Visor back on. Not dismissed.

Form: 338455-

(10)

Mr Trick^p¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: Ian Williams| OR: 55| CD

9/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in December. 12/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 10 days ago. Can give another good account.

Form: 214-583

Forecasts

Marion's Boy (10/3), Hotspur Harry (7/2), Platinum Prince (7/2), Twilight Guest (5/1), Curtiz (8/1), Mr Trick (9/1), Portoro (16/1), Nasim (22/1), Oyamal (80/1), Bubblecraft (125/1)

HOTSPUR HARRY isn't entirely straightforward but he attracted support and shaped well over C&D a week ago and is worth a chance to go one better from a reduced mark. Mr Trick is in good order and looks a danger, while Twilight Guest could feature if he's ready to go after 4 months off.
