Dynamic Talent^b,t²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: David Probert| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 65| BF| CD

7/4

C&D winner who again ran creditably when third of 9 in handicap at this course (8f) 21 days ago, never nearer. Can make presence felt once more.

Form: 80-1433

(1)

Dagmar Run⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: D M Simcock| OR: 65| CD

9/1

C&D winner who followed a below-par one with an even worse one when last of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 4 days ago, slowly away. Others appeal more.

Form: 41-5677

(3)

Global Warning³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Liam Keniry| T: J Butler| OR: 65| D

9/1

Latest win (landed gamble) at Wolverhampton in December and quickly back on track when fourth in 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 36 days ago. Still looks on a workable mark.

Form: 9661-64

(7)

Electric Avenue²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Callum Shepherd| T: George Baker| OR: 62

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden who wasn't given a hard time when sixth of 8 in maiden at this course (6f, 20/1) 24 days ago. Makes handicap debut and remains open to improvement.

Form: 4-656

(2)

Swiss Pride^v¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: Joe Leavy⁽⁷⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 61| C

9/1

Course winner who wasn't seen to best effect when sixth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 19 days ago, caught wide/shuffled back home turn. Can't be ruled out.

Form: 46-3536

(5)

Rose Fandango^p1²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Finley Marsh| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 61| D

80/1

66/1, given a considerate return on first run since leaving Julia Feilden when ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 25 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.

Form: 4160/8-9

(6)

Sam's Hope⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽⁵⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 55| CD

2/1

Showed improved form to get off the mark in 9-runner handicap at this C&D 7 days ago, quickening clear. May do better still and obvious interest under a penalty.

Form: 5970-51

(4)

Lily In The Jungle^p¹⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: K Shoemark| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 57

9/1

7/1, below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f). Off 145 days. First run for yard after leaving Philip Kirby. Needs a market check with top rider booked.

Form: 299856-

Forecasts

Dynamic Talent (7/4), Sam's Hope (2/1), Swiss Pride (9/1), Dagmar Run (9/1), Global Warning (9/1), Lily In The Jungle (9/1), Electric Avenue (14/1), Rose Fandango (80/1)

SAM'S HOPE got off the mark with something to spare over C&D last week and, with the potential for further improvement, a 5-lb penalty may not be enough to prevent the follow up. Global Warning still looks on a workable mark and heads up the opposition, along with Dynamic Talent, who is proving consistent.
