Arcadian Nights⁶²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Mason Paetel⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 80| CD

17/2

Three-time C&D winner. 8/1, excellent second of 11 in handicap at this C&D 62 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Clearly in good order but he's been raised 3 lb.

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: Ben Robinson| T: D O'Meara| OR: 80

16/1

Creditable third of 11 in handicap (50/1) at Newcastle (8f) 14 days ago. Fully exposed now but likely to give it another good go,

Eagle Day¹¹^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Rossa Ryan| T: P D Evans| OR: 75| CD

7/4

Three wins from 16 runs this year. 15/2, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D 11 days ago, easily. Carries penalty but given nature of that success, he must go well.

Titian³⁹

7/1

Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 12/1) 39 days ago. Can give a good account having dropped to last winning mark.

Form: 041944

Yokohama²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: S M Levey| T: J Butler| OR: 80

4/1

Good fifth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 27 days ago. Higher AW mark is justified and he's not yet exposed.

Charmaine^h³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽³⁾| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 77

4/1

Made third start a winning one at Kempton in September. Very good fourth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 9/2) 31 days ago and there should be more to come from her.

Form: 9-414

28/1

Latest win at Newcastle in November. 7/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 11 days ago, proving too free in his hat-trick bid.

Forecasts

Eagle Day (7/4), Charmaine (4/1), Yokohama (4/1), Titian (7/1), Arcadian Nights (17/2), Tribal Wisdom (12/1), Orbaan (16/1), Tasever (28/1), Respectful (28/1), Wyvern (40/1), Ashtanga (80/1)

CHARMAINE continued her theme of big race-by-race progress when fourth on handicap debut at Lingfield a month ago and as an unexposed 3-y-o representing a good yard, she's a tempting alternative to Eagle Day, who is sure to be popular under a penalty. Orbaan is likely to give it another good go.
