Hurstwood³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Mr Joshua Brown⁽⁷⁾| T: P D Niven| OR: 55| CD

33/1

C&D winner who ended losing run at Redcar (6f) in August. Not scaled same heights in 3 starts since, ninth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (14/1) 31 days ago, weakening. Others more persuasive.

Beneficiary^b¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Mr Matt Brown⁽⁵⁾| T: L Bailey| OR: 55| CD

16/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 15 runs this year. Good second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 13/2) 18 days ago. Back up in trip. Can make presence felt.

Captain Vallo^p²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Miss Pippa Brown⁽⁵⁾| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 55| CD

7/2

C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 15/2, good second of 9 in handicap at this C&D 29 days ago, no extra close home but clear of rest. Up to ending his losing run from this sort of mark on that evidence.

Sirius White^v²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Miss Ellie Mayo⁽⁵⁾| T: L Morgan| OR: 54

14/1

Ran well when third at Carlisle (5.8f) in August and, back from 3 months off, posted a career best when dead-heating 12-runner handicap at Southwell (5f) 29 days ago. Back up in trip and another good showing could well be on the cards again.

Fircombe Hall^p²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Mr Shay Halton⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 54| CD

9/1

6-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 20 runs this year. Respectable third of 9 in handicap at this C&D (3/1) 29 days ago. Each-way possibilities once more.

Voltaic^v³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: Miss S L Bowen| T: A W Carroll| OR: 53| D

2/1

3 wins from 11 runs this year. Bounced back to something like his very best when running out a dominant winner of 11-runner handicap (8/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 3 days ago. Escapes a penalty for that and he could be tough to contain.

Muddy Lynn^b¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Miss Kayleigh Rayner⁽⁷⁾| T: S Spencer| OR: 53| BF| CD

10/1

Bagged a second C&D victory in October and better than she could show when eighth of 12 in handicap (9/2) at this course (7.1f) 14 days ago, bumped under 2f out. Blinkers back on.

Form: 80-5518

Lilkian²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr Paul Hainey⁽⁵⁾| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 53| D

8/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 15/2, creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 2 days ago. Others look to hold stronger claims.

Form: 378945

Oriental Prince³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-13| J: Miss Megan Davies⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 52

11/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 5/1, shaped well on the back of 5 months off when good second of 12 in handicap at this C&D 39 days ago, the lack of a recent outing telling only late on. Shouldn't be long in going one place better from this sort of mark.

Form: 67552

Monsieur Fantaisie^p¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Jack Nicholls⁽³⁾| T: P D Niven| OR: 52| D

40/1

Returned to winning ways in 12-runner handicap at Southwell (7f) in March. Not seen to best effect after 8 months off when eleventh of 12 in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago but he ought to be sharper with that under his belt.

Forecasts

Voltaic (2/1), Captain Vallo (7/2), Oriental Prince (11/2), Lilkian (8/1), Fircombe Hall (9/1), Muddy Lynn (10/1), Sirius White (14/1), Beneficiary (16/1), Under Curfew (20/1), Hurstwood (33/1), Monsieur Fantaisie (40/1), Posh Maisie (66/1)

VOLTAIC bounced back to something like his very best when a dominant winner at Lingfield 3 days ago and, going unpenalized for that success, he could prove tough to contain. Beneficiary, Oriental Prince and Captain Vallo can provide chief resistance to Tony Carroll's 8-y-o.
