Jumbeau²⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Connor Planas⁽³⁾| T: Tom Clover| OR: 85| D

4/1

5/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to firm). Off 8 months. Had a number of good efforts to his name in competitive events last year and can make her presence felt if ready to go.

Form: 522325-

Haymaker²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: H Morrison| OR: 82| BF

7/4

5/4, good second of 7 in handicap at Brighton (5.3f, good) 21 days ago. Handicapped to win and looks the one to beat if he can break on terms.

Form: 06905-2

Dickieburd¹¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: William Pyle⁽⁵⁾| T: Craig Lidster| OR: 82| D

17/2

15/2, sixth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (6f). Off 116 days. Not firing when last seen and others make more appeal.

Form: 23928-6

Grace Angel^b,t³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Sean Kirrane| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 82| D

9/1

9/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 37 days ago. Has seemingly been working her way back to full fitness and she's well treated on the pick of last year's efforts, so can't be ruled out.

Form: 1888-86

Celsius¹⁷²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: J Mitchell| T: Tom Clover| OR: 82| D

12/1

Last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 50/1). Off 172 days. On a fair mark and he's gone well fresh before, so not completely discounted.

Form: 1102/78-

Ancient Times²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽⁵⁾| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 79| D

9/2

Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Good fourth of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm, 9/2) 28 days ago. Given a chance by the handicapper and not without hope after that mildly encouraging return.

Form: 40048-4

Eeh Bah Gum²¹⁷

12/1

Eleventh of 13 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good, 25/1). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Ivan Furtado. One to note if the market speaks in his favour.

Form: 914070-

Beauzon^p³³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: T E Whelan| T: Ian Williams| OR: 70| D

28/1

4 wins from 8 runs this year. Latest win at Wolverhampton in February. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 22/1) 33 days ago. Others preferred.

Form: 115257

Forecasts

Haymaker (7/4), Jumbeau (4/1), Ancient Times (9/2), Dickieburd (17/2), Grace Angel (9/1), Eeh Bah Gum (12/1), Celsius (12/1), Beauzon (28/1)

HAYMAKER is on a lenient mark and arguably shaped best having made a mess of the start at Brighton last time so, if he can break more efficiently, he'll be tough to beat. Jumbeau has some solid 3-y-o form to his name and looks a big player on return, while Grace Angel should be spot on fitness wise now.
