33/1

5/1, fourth of 5 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (19.1f, good) 27 days ago. Significantly up in trip for this tapeta debut and sports first-time blinkers. Failed to fire on latest start in this sphere.

Son Of Red^t⁸⁷⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-1| J: Jonny Peate| T: Jack Jones| OR: 66

12/1

10/3 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (16f) back in July 2022 on what was his final run for Harry Fry. Resumes for new yard on the same mark and it'll be interesting to see how he shapes up in the market.

Liberated Lad^t,p¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Luke Catton⁽³⁾| T: B Brookhouse| OR: 65| C

25/1

Course winner. 4 wins from 11 runs this year. Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (11f, 16/1) 10 days ago, needing stronger gallop. This step back up in trip looks a good move and he's not discounted.

Dance Time¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Laura Pearson| T: D Loughnane| OR: 65| BF| CD

15/2

C&D winner in November. Creditable 1½ lengths third of 11 to Daaris in handicap (15/8) back here (14f) 12 days ago. Merits consideration.

Zivaniya^b,t⁵⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: David Probert| T: H Palmer| OR: 63

14/1

Three wins from 10 runs this year, the latest at Newcastle in August. Creditable third of 6 in handicap there (16.2f, 9/1) 57 days ago. Others make more appeal for win purposes on this occasion.

Kissininthebackrow²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: K Shoemark| T: R & J & J Insole| OR: 62

9/1

15/2, fourth of 7 in novice hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, good to soft) 23 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Successful on latest start in this sphere and she remains on a workable mark.

Form: 351521

Daaris^b¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Andrea Pinna⁽⁷⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 60| C

9/2

Career best when winning 11-runner handicap (6/1) at this course (14f) 12 days ago. Enters calculations.

Sophosc¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Ian Williams| OR: 57| C

6/1

Course winner. Third of 11 in handicap (9/2) at this course (12.2f) 12 days ago. Significantly up in trip and this 8-y-o is not without each-way hope.

Form: 4-00993

Sir Joseph Swan^b²³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: L Morris| T: A Watson| OR: 54| D

17/2

Latest win at Southwell in November. 7/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at that course (16.5f) 23 days ago. Evidently in good nick and should give another good account.

Form: 432213

Albert Lasker^h,t,p²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 56

5/1

Good second of 8 in handicap (9/1) at Southwell (16.5f) 23 days ago. Nudged up 1 lb for that, which is fair enough, and he's unlikely to be far away.

Forecasts

Eagle's Realm (4/1), Daaris (9/2), Albert Lasker (5/1), Sophosc (6/1), Doublethetrouble (13/2), Dance Time (15/2), Sir Joseph Swan (17/2), Kissininthebackrow (9/1), Son Of Red (12/1), Zivaniya (14/1), Liberated Lad (25/1), Regally Blonde (33/1)

An absence of well over 2 years is naturally a concern but SON OF RED remains of strong interest given his low-mileage and progressive profile in this sphere. It goes without saying that confidence levels will be elevated if there's support for this 7-y-o in the ring. Liberated Lad shaped as though well worth another crack at this trip when fifth at Kempton recently and he is feared most. Last-time-out winner Daaris is also shortlisted, along with Dance Time.
