Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: K Shoemark| T: B R Johnson| OR: 50| BF| D

4/1

Comes here on a long losing run but holding form well in refitted visor of late, succumbing only late on under a change of tactics when third of 9 in minor event at Lingfield (12f, AW) 20 days ago. Possibilities dropping back significantly in trip.

Form: 6-55223

(4)

Van Zant¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 46

11/4

Shed maiden tag at Wolverhampton (7f) in December and remained in form since, respectable fourth of 12 in handicap back at that venue (8.6f, 7/2) 12 days ago. Can figure back down in class.

Form: 1-85334

Forecasts

Van Zant (11/4), Stopnsearch (4/1), Capallcliste (9/2), Inexplicable (11/2), Broxi (15/2), Masham Moor (8/1), Gintini (18/1), Headshot (20/1), Kumari Star (50/1)

INEXPLICABLE quickly got back on track when third in handicap company at Wolverhampton 12 days ago and he can capitalise on this drop in to classified company and come out on top. Stopnsearch, despite his lengthy losing run, is another to consider, with Van Zant and Broxi completing the shortlist.
