Grace Angel^b,t¹⁰^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Liam Wright⁽⁵⁾| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 82| CD

4/1

C&D winner who proved as good as ever when winning 9-runner handicap at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm, 7/2) 10 days ago, readily. Expected to be bang there under a penalty.

Form: 041531

(9)

Navello^t,p²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Grace McEntee⁽³⁾| T: G Boughey| OR: 85| CD

10/1

C&D winner who looks on the way back, doing his best work late on in first-time blinkers when second of 4 in handicap (2/1) at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and needs considering.

Form: 347032

Glamorous Breeze^p¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Gina Mangan| T: C Mason| OR: 81| D

18/1

Didn't need to improve to win 8-runner handicap in cosy fashion at Bath (5f, good, 2/1) 13 days ago. Remains well treated on old form but has never put back-to-back wins together.

Form: 733881

Hedge Fund²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 80| C| D

11/1

Course winner who needs to cast aside a poor run at Carlisle last month.

Form: 300667

(2)

El Bufalo^t1¹⁶⁴

5/4

Lightly-raced C&D winner. Last of 6 in conditions stakes at Newmarket (7f, good, 12/1). Off 164 days. Back down in trip and fitted with a first-time tongue strap for handicap debut. Has had a breathing op.

Form: 21-6

(5)

Aidan Andabettin^b²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: R Spencer| OR: 77| CD

14/1

Ran out an impressive winner over C&D in July. Possibly found race coming too soon when below form back here 6 days later and can easily stick a line through his latest effort given he's unproven on turf.

Form: 394160

Catch Cunningham^h¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Dylan Hogan| T: M Herrington| OR: 75| CD

9/2

Bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when winning over C&D in September and ran respectably returned to a higher grade when third of 9 to Grace Angel in handicap at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm, 13/2) 10 days ago.

Form: 137813

Forecasts

El Bufalo (5/4), Grace Angel (4/1), Catch Cunningham (9/2), Mini Magna (8/1), Navello (10/1), Hedge Fund (11/1), Aidan Andabettin (14/1), Blazes Boylan (16/1), Glamorous Breeze (18/1), Cast No Shadow (20/1), Michaela's Boy (20/1)

GRACE ANGEL proved as good as ever when resuming winning ways in ready fashion at Yarmouth last week and gets the nod to follow up under a 5-lb penalty. Navello looks to be coming to the boil again and is second choice, with Mini Magna completing the shortlist.
