Vince Lombardi¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Saffie Osborne| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 74| D

11/2

3-time winner at up to 6f who stepped up on his yard debut effort when seventh of 10 in handicap at Haydock (6f, firm) 16 days ago, brief headway under 2f out and never dangerous. Type yard do well with and better showing not ruled out.

Form: 9135-07

Starproof¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 73| CD

15/8

C&D winner. Creditable second of 12 in handicap at Newbury (6f, good to firm, 13/2) 10 days ago, headed inside final 100 yds and keeping on. Clearly on a workable mark and sound claims with a repeat.

Form: 824-562

Sarah's Verse¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: David Probert| T: R Harris| OR: 72| BF| D

11/2

Enhanced her good record at Bath over 5.7f in May. Not in quite the same form when fifth at Chepstow next time but quickly back to form returned to first-named venue when third of 8 in 5f handicap 16 days ago. Not discounted.

Form: 148153

Mr Wonderful¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Finley Marsh| T: K P De Foy| OR: 75

11/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 5 in handicap (8/1) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 19 days ago, short of room final 100 yds and not recover. Reappearance third at Newcastle previously was an encouraging effort and he's one to bear in mind.

Form: 937-35

Western¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 75

10/1

7/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago, ridden 2f out and staying on behind a pair of less exposed sorts. Can give another good account.

Form: 326-393

Fahrenheit Seven^p1³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Tyler Heard⁽³⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 75

16/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 13/2, third of 5 in maiden at Nottingham (5f, good) 33 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and step up to 6f promises to suit now attentions switch to handicaps.

Form: 243

Northfield Lake⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: George Rooke| T: R J Smith| OR: 71

4/1

Fair form when placed in maiden/novice events and ran up to best when third of 9 on handicap debut at Sandown (7f, good) 9 days ago. Return to sprinting will hold no fears and he's another holding claims.

Form: 4-4323

Professor Tickle¹⁷⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Laura Pearson| T: D Loughnane| OR: 71| D

25/1

Latest win at Lingfield (6f, AW) in December. Absent since finishing fifth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) later that month and headgear left off on return to action. Mark demands that bit more.

Form: 322615-

Judge Frank⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Christian Williams| OR: 62

50/1

Fair form when second in Newbury novice (6.5f) on debut last summer but not got near that level since, including making yard debut when eleventh of 12 in handicap at Chester (6.1f, good) 9 days ago. Good deal to prove at present.

Form: 296-660

Forecasts

Starproof (15/8), Northfield Lake (4/1), Sarah's Verse (11/2), Vince Lombardi (11/2), Western (10/1), Mr Wonderful (11/1), Hello Zabeel (12/1), Fahrenheit Seven (16/1), Professor Tickle (25/1), Judge Frank (50/1)

STARPROOF confirmed she's on a workable mark when runner-up behind a progressive sort at Newbury 10 days ago and, back at the scene of her last success, she looks to hold sound claims if arriving in the same form. Vince Lombardi has seemingly been working his way back to full fitness in a couple of runs this term and he needs factoring in. Mr Wonderful and Northfield Lake are a couple of 3-y-os to consider also.
