Lilkian²²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Liam Wright⁽⁵⁾| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 55| CD

11/2

4-time C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Ninth of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Kempton (6f) 22 days ago, weakening from over 1f out. Lurking on a handy mark if bouncing back returned to this venue.

Form: 703789

Havana Sky⁸^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: H Crouch| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 48| D

15/8

Career best when winning 10-runner handicap (8/1) at Southwell (6.1f) 8 days ago, leading under 2f out and keeping on. Consistency hasn't been his strong suit so far but respected with a repeat turned out under a penalty.

Form: 914301

Bobby On The Beat³⁹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Grace McEntee| T: P S McEntee| OR: 53| CD

28/1

3-time C&D winner but out of sorts when last seen, last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 13 months ago. Likely best watched on this belated return.

Form: 240098-

Poetic Jack^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: S M Levey| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 50

11/2

Creditable second of 11 in handicap (11/2) at Chelmsford City (7f) 12 days ago, nearest finish. Could resume winning ways.

Form: 482442

Neptune Legend⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: N Callan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 47| C| D

11/1

Course winner. 3 wins from 18 runs this year. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 11/2) 52 days ago. Has fallen to a handy mark but his slow starts are a cause for concern.

Form: 877407

Bishop's Glory²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Sean Kirrane| T: M Wigham| OR: 46

6/1

First run since leaving Gary & Josh Moore when eighth of 11 in handicap (4/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 21 days ago, no extra final 1f. Strong in the betting then and worth noting if support come for him again.

Form: 975658

(6)

Revolucion^v¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Rob Hornby| T: G Harris| OR: 45| D

25/1

One win from 37 Flat runs. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 18/1) 10 days ago, racing in rear and never a threat. Others stronger.

Roman Spring^p,t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Cook & J Bridger| OR: 45

17/2

Remains a maiden after 23 Flat runs. 5/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, soft) 21 days ago. Each-way claims on pick of form.

Form: 629438

Moorgate¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: J F Egan| T: P G Murphy| OR: 45| CD

50/1

C&D winner. One win from 23 Flat runs. 28/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago, merely closing up late. May well be sharper now given that was his first start for 5 months.

Form: 290888

(12)

Enchanted Night^p⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: Mrs C A Dunnett| OR: 45

40/1

Unreliable type. One win from 57 Flat runs. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (5f) 7 days ago. Others make greater appeal.

Forecasts

Havana Sky (15/8), Poetic Jack (11/2), Lilkian (11/2), Bishop's Glory (6/1), Roman Spring (17/2), Neptune Legend (11/1), Lord Danielson (12/1), Unavailable (20/1), Revolucion (25/1), Bobby On The Beat (28/1), Enchanted Night (40/1), Moorgate (50/1)

POETIC JACK has eased in the weights and arrives on the back of a string of consistent efforts so, from a handy draw, he could be the way to go returned to this shorter trip. Havana Sky hasn't been the most consistent but arrives on the back of a career-best success so has to enter calculations. Neptune Legend is another with claims from a basement mark for all his slow starts are a cause for concern.
