El Pro⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: J Candlish| OR: 75

18/1

Fair maiden who made frame on 6 of his 8 starts on the Flat in Germany. Pulled up both starts over hurdles upon joining present stable but he could yet get back on track returned to the Flat with Rossa Ryan an eye-catching booking.

Charming Oscar¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Darragh Keenan| T: J G M O'Shea

250/1

Twice-raced gelding. 250/1, last of 13 in maiden at this course (7f) 17 days ago, always behind. Significantly up in trip.

Form: 60

Simply Ed⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Sean Kirrane| T: A West

200/1

Once-raced gelding. 150/1, last of 9 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW) on debut 42 days ago. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Mark Hoad.

Form: 9

Come On Chief¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: George Downing| T: Eve Johnson Houghton

25/1

Bated Breath gelding. 11/1, showed a bit amidst greenness when sixth of 9 in maiden at Southwell (8.1f) on debut 11 days ago, keeping on when hampered final 1f. Significantly up in trip here and he may do better.

Form: 6

(5)

Spitfire Bridge³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: T E Whelan| T: Miss S West

50/1

Modest form in 3 bumpers and looked one for later on in this sphere when fifth of 7 in minor event (150/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) on flat debut 30 days ago.

Form: 5

(2)

Angelica K¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: William Carver⁽³⁾| T: S Hodgson

50/1

55,000 gns purchase who shaped quite well when third on debut in maiden here (11f0 in January. Couldn't build on that when sixth at Newcastle (10.2f) 2 weeks ago though and handicaps may be more her bag moving forward.

Form: 36

(8)

North Winterfell²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Dylan Hogan| T: S Woods

9/2

Golden Horn colt. Dam once-raced half-sister to high-class Al Kazeem. 33/1, offered something to work on despite finishing last of 5 on debut in a Wolverhampton novice (9.5f) 23 days ago. Feasible to think he can do better.

Form: 5

(6)

Trojan Storm^t¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: R Kingscote| T: Ian Williams| OR: 75

6/1

Thrice-raced colt who wasn't seen to best effect when third of 6 in minor event at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 4/1) 19 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Likely player in a race lacking depth.

Form: 233

(1)

Across Earth¹³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Botti

11/8

Twice-raced colt. Fourth of 8 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in October, still displaying signs of greenness. Could yet have more to offer back from a break.

Form: 34-

(10)

Brodie's Boy²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: K T O'Neill| T: F Brennan| OR: 72

11/2

Lightly-raced colt. 13/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 23 days ago. Step up in trip could well benefit him and he's one to consider.

Form: 722-4

(3)

Sitcom

Age: 3| Weight: 8-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: C Johnston

10/1

Masar filly. Half-sister to smart 10.5f-12.5f winner Sublimis and useful 13f winner L'absolue and useful 1¼m-1¾m winner Lillian Russell. One to monitor closely in the betting on debut.

Form:

(9)

City Saint^h1

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Hayley Turner| T: A M Balding

20/1

Cityscape filly. Dam 1m-2m winner. Wears hood and another who needs monitoring in the betting for clues on racecourse bow.

Form:

Forecasts

Across Earth (11/8), North Winterfell (9/2), Brodie's Boy (11/2), Trojan Storm (6/1), Sitcom (10/1), El Pro (18/1), City Saint (20/1), Come On Chief (25/1), Spitfire Bridge (50/1), Angelica K (50/1), Simply Ed (200/1), Charming Oscar (250/1)

TROJAN STORM seemed unsuited by the steady gallop when third over this sort of trip at Wolverhampton 3 weeks ago and, remaining the type to do better, he gets the nod to come out on top. Brodie's Boy and Across Earth are others to consider, with newcomer Sitcom another to note.
