Orbaan^t³³

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 85| D

4/1

Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 18/1, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 33 days ago. Has dropped to an attractive mark and should be spot on after that return.

Form: 00500-6

Kelpie Grey¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 78| CD

9/4

C&D winner. Career best when winning 6-runner handicap (11/10) at Musselburgh (7.1f, good) 11 days ago, always holding on. Has returned on an upward curve and makes plenty of appeal.

Form: 8014-11

Archduke Ferdinand²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: D Swift| T: S Spencer| OR: 78| D

4/1

Good second of 14 in handicap (9/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 28 days ago. Should go well again.

Form: 01846-2

Yaaser²¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Mark Winn⁽³⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 77| CD

16/1

C&D winner. 8/1, below form seventh of 13 in handicap at York (7f, heavy). Off 7 months. Likely to strip fitter for this.

Prairie Falcon^b1²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: M Dods| OR: 76| BF| C| D

17/2

Course winner. Bit below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 4/1) 28 days ago. Shaped well on penultimate outing and blinkers go on for the first time, so worthy of interest.

Form: 0283-28

4/1

Won 9-runner handicap (15/2) at Catterick (7f, good) 14 days ago, staying on strongly to lead late. Remains well treated and should go well again.

Age: 5| Weight: 8-6| J: Harry Davies| T: T D Barron| OR: 68| CD

25/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Newcastle in January. 12¾ lengths thirteenth of 14 to Kelpie Grey in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, good to soft, 9/1) 23 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 1703-10

Forecasts

Kelpie Grey (9/4), Bowman (4/1), Orbaan (4/1), Archduke Ferdinand (4/1), Prairie Falcon (17/2), Judgment Call (12/1), Yaaser (16/1), Ahamoment (25/1), Bowood (40/1)

KELPIE GREY has returned better than ever and had something to spare at Musselburgh last time, so he holds excellent claims of completing the hat-trick, with Archduke Ferdinand perhaps the main danger. Recent Catterick scorer Bowman still has plenty of handicapping scope from his reassessed mark, so he's not ruled out.
