Ciara Pearl⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Jim Crowley| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 66| D

11/4

After 6 months off, continued her progress when making a successful handicap debut in 10-runner event at Lingfield (10f, AW, 5/2) a week ago. Looks capable of following up under a penalty.

Form: 212-1

Wadacre Grace⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-3| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 69| CD

11/4

Four wins from 22 runs last year, including at this C&D, and added to her tally at Chelmsford City in February. Ran up to her best when second of 14 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 14/1) 6 days ago. Respected.

Alika Breeze¹⁸⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 72

8/1

Improved with each of her 3 starts last year, third of 7 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to soft, 33/1) in October. Bred to be suited by this longer trip, so she's one to note as she goes handicapping for her in-form yard.

Nothing To Fear¹⁶⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: George Wood| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 70

7/2

Ran to a fair level when making the frame twice last year, fourth of 12 in minor event (9/2) at this C&D in November. Can give another good account as she makes her seasonal/handicap debut.

Form: 934-

Unreal Connection²⁰¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 70

9/1

Off the mark at Epsom last summer but finished well held on her final start of the campaign, eighth of 11 in minor event at Goodwood (7f, soft, 66/1) in September. Needs to get back on the up making her all-weather bow.

Miss Idunn²¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K Stott| T: R Hannon| OR: 69

33/1

Failed to repeat her previous effort when last of 7 in maiden at Sandown (8f, good, 25/1) when last seen in September. However, she appeals as the type that could do better in handicaps this year.

Form: 467-

Moonlight Express^t¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: D Tudhope| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 68

13/2

Shaped better than result when sixth of 12 in maiden at Lingfield (8f, AW, 9/1) 11 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Interesting contender as she makes her first start in a handicap.

Form: 636

Forecasts

Ciara Pearl (11/4), Wadacre Grace (11/4), Nothing To Fear (7/2), Moonlight Express (13/2), Alika Breeze (8/1), Unreal Connection (9/1), Miss Idunn (33/1)

CIARA PEARL picked up where she left off when making a winning seasonal/handicap debut at Lingfield 7 days ago and, with the potential of more still to offer, a penalty might not be enough to prevent her scoring again. Moonlight Express remains capable of better now handicapping and is next on the list, ahead of Wadacre Grace.
