God Of Fire⁴^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Liam Wright| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 72

4/11

Stepped up on reappearance and posted a career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good) 4 days ago. Carries penalty. Shortlist material given he's unexposed for this yard.

Form: 0396-21

Beau French²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Anna Gibson⁽³⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 71

8/1

First run since leaving J. De Mieulle when fifth of 7 in handicap at Goodwood (14f, good, 11/1) on UK debut 26 days ago, well positioned. Down in trip. Must improve on that to defy current mark.

Form: 0242/5

Forge Valley Lad¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: K S McHugh⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 68| D

28/1

Last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm, 25/1) 18 days ago. That was a very rare turf start and better expected returned to the AW.

Form: 0-84698

Moab²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: C Horgan| T: Miss H C Knight| OR: 67

22/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, respectable 4½ lengths sixth of 10 to Shaheen Saqaar in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 20 days ago. Needs to improve.

Form: 4-3476

(6)

Shaheen Saqaar²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Fred Daly⁽⁵⁾| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 66

8/1

Career best when winning 10-runner handicap (4/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 20 days ago, well positioned. 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid.

Form: 1-36531

(2)

Early Morning Dew²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Archie Young| T: J & S Best| OR: 65

33/1

6¼ lengths eighth of 10 to Shaheen Saqaar in handicap (33/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 20 days ago, slowly away. Entitled to have looked a bit rusty there on first start for 14 months.

Form: 4/2231-8

The Bay Warrior⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Joe Bradnam⁽⁵⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 60| CD

11/1

C&D winner. 28/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 9 days ago. Needs to cast that effort aside.

Forecasts

God Of Fire (4/11), Bletchley Storm (15/8), Beau French (8/1), Shaheen Saqaar (8/1), The Bay Warrior (11/1), Moab (22/1), Forge Valley Lad (28/1), Early Morning Dew (33/1), Hadley Park (33/1)

GOD OF FIRE looked a really uncomplicated ride when making his second start for his new yard a winning one at Beverley on Saturday and he holds sound follow-up claims under a penalty. The return to the AW is sure to suit Forge Valley Lad, while Bletchley Storm would have to command respect if taking up this engagement.
