7/1

10/1 and blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) 17 days ago, overcoming positional bias to lead final 100 yds. Enters calculations.

Shaheen Saqaar²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: J Mitchell| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 65

18/1

Winner at Wolverhampton in December. 9/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (10.2f, heavy) 20 days ago, finding little. Yet to give his running on turf but this quicker ground could see him in a much better light.

Form: 7361-36

Soi Dao²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Gina Mangan⁽³⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 64

15/2

Latest win at Wolverhampton in January. Ran well back on turf when third of 12 in handicap at Bath (8f, good to soft, 9/1) 3 weeks ago. Every chance if building on that.

Form: 4-12673

The Spotlight Kid^p²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: R Havlin| T: D K Ivory| OR: 61

10/3

10/1, ran creditably after 6 months off when third of 12 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 20 days ago. Now below his last winning mark so could be worth chancing.

Form: 34437-3

Realised²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: George Wood| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 60

13/2

Failed to improve when ninth of 12 on handicap debut at this C&D (heavy, 9/2) 20 days ago. Faces much quicker conditions here and remains with potential.

Form: 459-9

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham| OR: 59

40/1

125/1, tenth of 15 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, soft) 6 months ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Worth noting should the market speak in his favour.

13/2

Winner at Lingfield in February. 22/1, bounced back to form when fifth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 20 days ago, beaten only by rivals who came from much further back.

Form: 30-8105

Freddy Robinson¹²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 56

18/1

Won 7-runner handicap hurdle (10/3) at Catterick (15.7f, soft) 4 months ago. Significantly down in trip. Fair on the Flat, well beaten both AW starts in the winter.

Barleybrown¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 53| D

8/1

11/4, continued his good start for his current yard when winning 8-runner handicap at Newcastle (8f) 2 weeks ago, though again showed an ungainly side under pressure. Back on turf and fancied to be involved if keeping his quirks in check.

Forecasts

The Spotlight Kid (10/3), My Mate Mike (13/2), Realised (13/2), Lunario (7/1), Prefer The Sister (7/1), Soi Dao (15/2), Barleybrown (8/1), Love Your Work (8/1), Freddy Robinson (18/1), Shaheen Saqaar (18/1), Angel Of Antrim (18/1), Mhajim (40/1)

THE SPOTLIGHT KID made a satisfactory return when third over C&D just under 3 weeks ago, and with that outing sure to have blown away any cobwebs, Dean Ivory's charge gets the nod having dipped below his last winning mark. Lunario did well to open his account at Yarmouth recently and he can give the selection most to think about, with Barleybrown and Soi Dao also fancied to go well, too.
