Isle Of Sark¹⁸⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Callum Shepherd| T: J A Osborne| OR: 80

11/2

Fourteen runs since last win in 2020. 10/1, respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f). Off 6 months and market should guide as to expectations.

Signora Bellissima¹²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: S H James| T: G Tutty| OR: 80

33/1

4-y-o filly who found some improvement when doubling career tally in first-time blinkers at Navan (1m) last summer. Well held final starts for Johnny Murtagh and steps back up significantly in trip having changed hands for 6,000 gns in December. Betting may unearth some clues.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: P Mulrennan| T: I Jardine| OR: 77| BF| C

11/8

Course winner. Latest win here in January. 3/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at this C&D 42 days ago. Enters calculations.

Parish Councillor⁸⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: A J Farragher| T: T D Barron| OR: 76| BF

50/1

Showed improved form when off the mark at second attempt in a Newcastle novice (1m) 13 months ago. Well held back from 10 months off under a penalty at that venue in December and he needs to leave that well behind now handicapping/upped in trip.

Form: 5/19-

Ninth Life^h²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 75

7/2

Winner on stable debut at Lingfield (10f) in December. However, not able to replicate that level either outing since, never on terms when sixth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 25 days ago. Stamina tested a little more now.

Form: 6421-96

Golden Delite^p,t³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: L Morris| T: M Appleby| OR: 72

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 20/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 9 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 34 days ago, shaken up over 2f out and no response. That was his first start for 5 months and this should reveal more.

Form: 0245-9

Southern Voyage¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 72

8/1

40/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 18 days ago. Mark is easing all the time but he needs to show more before becoming of interest.

Form: 7000-07

Tiger Beetle²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Rob Hornby| T: M G Rimell| OR: 72

8/1

7/2, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 22 days ago, unable land a blow having been left poorly placed. Lines up here back on last winning mark but this sort of trip does look on the limit of his stamina.

Form: 366-376

(4)

Absolute Queen^p²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey| OR: 72| D

18/1

14/1, ninth of 14 in juvenile hurdle at Hereford (16.2f, soft) on NH debut 20 days ago, not seeing things out. Had been largely consistent previously on the level and whilst her mark looks about right on balance, no surprise to see her thereabouts.

Form: 943329-

(3)

Fox Flame^v²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Jason Hart| T: C Johnston| OR: 68| C

16/1

Course winner. Three wins from 17 runs last year. Good third of 8 in handicap at Kempton (12f, 13/2) 20 days ago, doing best of those from off the pace. Lines up here 3 lb below last winning mark if she can build on that effort.

Form: 969-843

Result Amended

Isle Of Sark - Original Position 1st. Amended Position 2nd.

Forecasts

Bringbackmemories (11/8), Ninth Life (7/2), Isle Of Sark (11/2), Tiger Beetle (8/1), Southern Voyage (8/1), Fox Flame (16/1), Absolute Queen (18/1), Signora Bellissima (33/1), Golden Delite (40/1), Parish Councillor (50/1)

A winner here in January, BRINGBACKMEMORIES again ran well when third over C&D 42 days ago and, re-united with his regular pilot, he looks sure to go well again. Tiger Beetle still needs to conclusively prove he wants this far but comes here on a workable mark and is respected. Absolute Queen may do best of the others.
