4/1

A three-time winner in 2023 who arrives in decent nick, fourth of 8 in handicap at Sandown (14f, soft) 26 days ago when making effort earlier than ideal. Claims.

Fictional^p⁹^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 64

6/1

Bids for a hat-trick after recent wins at Kempton and Lingfield (15.8f, AW). Not taken lightly under a 5 lb penalty in his current mood.

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽³⁾| T: Miss C Dyson| OR: 67| DWS

125/1

Debut winner in Ireland and showed fairly useful form in listed races subsequently for Joseph O'Brien. Has shown little since returning from a 2-year absence for his new yard though. Needs another wind op to spark a resurgence.

Al Khawaneej River²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: D C Costello| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 66

10/3

On the up since sent into handicaps in 2024, scoring at Windsor and posting a very good third of 10 here (12f, good to firm) 28 days ago. That form has been franked so he's a player.

Form: 56-8313

(6)

Grey Owl^t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Harry Davies| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 52

6/1

Arrives in good order, staying on into fourth of 12 in handicap at Bath (14f, firm) 17 days ago. Can go well again eased 1 lb in his bid for a maiden success.

Form: 75-5244

Forest Hills²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: B R Millman| OR: 63

11/4

Fair maiden who recorded a good fifth of 10 in handicap here (12f, good to firm) 28 days ago. One for the shortlist off a 2 lb lower mark.

Form: 098-035

Forecasts

Forest Hills (11/4), Al Khawaneej River (10/3), Western Stars (4/1), Grey Owl (6/1), Fictional (6/1), Queensland Boy (10/1), Kitty Foyle (28/1), Hy Brasil (125/1)

AL KHAWANEEJ RIVER comes here at the top of his game and with the form of his latest Windsor third working out well he is taken to quickly regain winning ways. Grey Owl is weighted to have a big say and next on the list, with in-form pair Fictional and Western Stars also firmly in the picture.
