Watch My Tracer²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Shepherd| T: George Scott| OR: 99| D

14/1

Improved again when making a winning reappearance in 7f Lingfield listed race before finding the Greenham too hot (sweated a bit beforehand). This should suit better back sprinting/handicapping.

Form: 7193-10

Woodhay Wonder³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Marquand| T: T Ward| OR: 93| CD

2/1

Has won 4 times, including 3 at Newmarket, picking up where she left off in 2023 to complete a hat-trick in big fields in C&D handicap on return, taking another step forward from her sales race wins here. Up 5 lb and could be smart, while her course experience will count for plenty.

Jehangeer²¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: W Buick| T: K A Ryan| OR: 93| D

9/1

Brother to yard's top sprinter Hello Youmzain and made a bright start last year, winning 6f Ayr maiden and running well in the Rockingham at York when last seen. Loads to like about him physically and definitely the type that could develop into a high-end handicapper. One to consider on return.

Warm Spell²⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: James Doyle| T: R Varian| OR: 91

5/1

Cost a bit and landed the odds in a good time at Newbury (7f) in July. Struggled in listed race at Doncaster 2 months later but remains with potential.

Form: 216-

Garfield Shadow¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 90| D

5/1

Unbeaten in 3 starts, improving in good style when landing 6f Chester handicap on return last week by neck from Al Shabab Storm, just holding on. Up 5 lb and should have even more to offer.

Form: 11-1

The Coffee Pod³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Hollie Doyle| T: R Hannon| OR: 84| BF| D

11/1

Won 6f York novice in September. Stepped up on reappearance but not enough to enable him to justify support at Windsor (5f) 5 weeks ago, finishing just third of 7, and this is tougher. Others preferred.

Form: 3310-03

Completely Random¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Saffie Osborne| T: Harry Charlton| OR: 83| D

7/2

Landed the odds in easy fashion in 6f Wolverhampton novice at Christmas but easy to back and held on return in useful C&D handicap a fortnight ago, not knocked about. This could reveal more.

Form: 621-6

Forecasts

Woodhay Wonder (2/1), Completely Random (7/2), Al Shabab Storm (4/1), Garfield Shadow (5/1), Warm Spell (5/1), Jimmy Speaking (13/2), Jehangeer (9/1), The Coffee Pod (11/1), Watch My Tracer (14/1), Cargin Bhui (25/1)

Typically one of the stronger 3-y-o sprint handicaps and WOODHAY WONDER is fancied to make it 3 in a row in big-field contests over C&D. She looks a smart sprinter in the making and clearly goes really well here. Jehangeer looks the type that could develop into a high-end handicapper for Kevin Ryan and is interesting on his return. The unbeaten Garfield Shadow and hat-trick-seeking Jimmy Speaking are a couple of the other obvious players.
