How Bizarre²⁰¹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: J Garritty| T: L Bailey| OR: 65| D

28/1

Five wins from 20 runs last year. 5/1, didn't need to improve to win 11-runner handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, good to firm), all out. More needed up 4 lb in this stronger race back from a 6-month break.

11/1

11/2, bit below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f). Off 172 days ahead of this debut for new yard and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 8/77656-

Big Narstie^b,t⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Frederick Larson⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 58| C| D

11/4

Quirky sort. Course winner. Much improved when winning 9-runner handicap (6/5) at Southwell (7.1f) 8 days ago. Big chance under a penalty.

Form: 232311

Naaser³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Harry Russell| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 62| D

18/1

Seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (6f, 22/1) 30 days ago and he looks set for another struggle.

Form: 3900-77

(3)

Plink¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Phil Dennis| T: K Scott| OR: 62

6/1

Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 10 days ago. Down 1 lb and this 7-race maiden is not without each-way hope.

Form: 74502-6

(6)

Mr Squires¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: J F Egan| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 61| D

15/2

10/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at this C&D 10 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 044-307

Pallas Lord^t¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Archie Young⁽⁷⁾| T: D W Whillans| OR: 61| CD

9/2

Siz-time course winner. Latest win here in February. 4/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 10 days ago. Likely to be in the thick of things once again.

Form: 121114

(10)

Perfect Swiss^b¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 60| BF| C| D

8/1

Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in February. 5/2, seventh of 10 in handicap there (8.1f) 13 days ago. Claims if he puts his best foot forward.

Form: 698-617

(8)

Pub Talk^p³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: P A Kirby| OR: 60| D

28/1

Last of 8 in handicap at this course (6f, 66/1) 30 days ago. Every chance if back to best but he hasn't shown much for present yard.

Form: 500-798

(4)

Angel Amadea^t³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Ethan Jones⁽⁷⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 60| DWS

6/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 5/1, good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D 30 days ago. Since undergone a wind op and she should make her presence felt.

Form: 361-852

Forecasts

Big Narstie (11/4), Pallas Lord (9/2), Angel Amadea (6/1), Plink (6/1), Mr Squires (15/2), Perfect Swiss (8/1), Tickets (11/1), Naaser (18/1), Pub Talk (28/1), How Bizarre (28/1)

The hat-trick beckons for BIG NARSTIE, who has bagged handicaps here and at Southwell in decisive fashion the last twice. Pallas Lord's winning run came to an end over C&D recently but he didn't do much wrong and is second choice ahead of Angel Amadea and Perfect Swiss.
