Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 62

Latest win at Chelmsford City (7f) in December. 9/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 47 days ago, weakening early in straight. Both career victories have been gained at 7f.

Light Up Our Stars^h,t²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-11| J: Phil Dennis| T: S Dixon| OR: 62| CD

9/4

C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. 7/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 25 days ago. Assessor has given him a chance and no surprise to see a better showing back down in trip.

Daffin^t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Ben Sanderson⁽³⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 59

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden who showed improved form when keeping on for third on handicap debut at Southwell (7f) in March. Probably best not judged too harshly her subsequent Lingfield effort and she remains less exposed than most here.

Form: 5-8739

(3)

Devasboy^v²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: David Probert| T: Ian Williams| OR: 59

7/2

Twenty five runs since last win in 2022. 8/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, heavy) 20 days ago. Has fallen a long way in the weights and refitting of a visor could well perk him up returned to AW.

Form: 6-55289

Olympic Quest¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: K T O'Neill| T: Joe Ponting| OR: 55| CD

14/1

Capitalised on the drop in to 0-55 company when shedding the maiden tag over C&D in January. However, hasn't been in anything like the same form in 2 starts since, including when eleventh of 13 in handicap on turf debut at Bath (1m, good to soft) 10 days ago.

Form: 98-6180

(8)

Haalim^h,t²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: L Morris| T: A McCann| OR: 48

9/4

Irish raider who is still lightly raced and produced best effort to date when second of 9 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 28 days ago, pulling hard but keeping on. Not discounted back up in trip from this lowly mark.

Form: 089-862

(2)

Arnie Angell^t¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: T E Whelan| T: I Furtado| OR: 45

80/1

80/1, first run since leaving Michael Herrington when last of 14 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 19 days ago, losing place before home turn. Up in trip.

Form: 698-080

Forecasts

Light Up Our Stars (9/4), Haalim (9/4), Devasboy (7/2), South Dakota Sioux (9/2), Dagmar Run (13/2), Daffin (14/1), Olympic Quest (14/1), Arnie Angell (80/1)

LIGHT UP OUR STARS hasn't been at his very best in recent starts, but he returns to the scene of his last success operating from a much-reduced mark and could just be worth chancing to bounce back. Devasboy in a refitted visor is another worth a look with lightly-raced pair Haalim and Daffin others in the mix.
