Graffiti¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Liam Wright⁽⁷⁾| T: G Brown| OR: 65| BF| CD

5/1

C&D winner. Two wins from 5 runs last year. Latest win here in November. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (8.6f, 5/2) 19 days ago. Needs considering.

Form: 317-234

(5)

Classic Speed³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: O J Orr| T: Brian Toomey| OR: 64

9/1

Improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner handicap at Kempton (8f, 4/1) 33 days ago. Had the run of the race there but still very much in the picture despite a 7 lb hike in the weights.

Form: 756-851

(8)

Malacanne^b²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: L P Keniry| T: D Donovan| OR: 64| BF| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in February. Last of 9 to Snooze Lane in handicap (5/2) at this C&D 20 days ago so needs to get back on track.

Form: 888-719

(2)

Crafter¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 62| CD

4/1

Built on earlier promise when landing 8-runner handicap (6/5) at this C&D 12 days ago. Can go well again nudged up 2 lb.

Form: 012-631

(7)

Snooze Lane^b¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Joshua Bryan| T: Sarah Hollinshead| OR: 61| BF| CD

4/1

C&D winner in March and backed it up with a good third of 9 in handicap (10/11) at this C&D 12 days ago. Another bold showing is on the cards from the same mark.

Form: 5-54413

(1)

Zumaaty¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: I Jardine| OR: 57| CD

18/1

C&D winner. Looked a hard ride when only fifth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 17 days ago. Merits consideration if shrugging off latest effort though.

Form: 3224-25

Forecasts

Snooze Lane (4/1), Crafter (4/1), Graffiti (5/1), Coolree (5/1), Light Up Our Stars (7/1), Classic Speed (9/1), Malacanne (11/1), The Pug (14/1), Zumaaty (18/1)

Sarah Hollinshead's SNOOZE LANE arrives at the top of his game so is fancied to quickly resume winning ways on the back of his good recent C&D third. Recent course runner-up Coolree is feared most, although a good case can also be made for the likes of Crafter, Graffiti and Classic Speed in a very open handicap.
