Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: H Crouch| T: Jack Jones| OR: 52

10/1

Good sixth of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 20/1) 11 days ago. Others make more appeal from a win point of view.

Devilwala¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Joanna Mason| T: D Shaw| OR: 52| D

80/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2022. First run since leaving Tim Easterby when last of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 100/1) 11 days ago. Best to look elsewhere.

Form: 09000-0

Mashaan⁴^{(ex 5)}

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 47| C

11/4

Won 12-runner handicap (16/1) at this course (7.2f) 4 days ago by ¾ length from Autumn Angel. Has to be high on the shortlist under a penalty.

Form: 69-9041

Savalas^p⁴⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 9-7| J: Taryn Langley⁽⁷⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 50| CD

33/1

Won 11-runner handicap (12/1) at this C&D 45 days ago. 3 lb rise fair enough and this 9-y-o has to enter calculations.

Autumn Angel^b⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Jack Doughty⁽³⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 48| D

13/8

Good ¾-length second of 12 to Mashaan in handicap (13/2) at this course (7.2f) 4 days ago. Now meets that rival on 5 lb better terms, so she has every chance of reversing those placings this time.

50/1

40/1, respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 42 days ago. Back up in trip. Hood back on and she needs to find improvement from somewhere.

Bernie The Bear¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Finley Marsh| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 46| CD

3/1

C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 10 days ago, worst of draw. Place possibilities.

Tantomile²²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Ethan Tindall⁽⁷⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 45

28/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Redcar (7f, good). Off 7 months and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 9-6348

Forecasts

Autumn Angel (13/8), Mashaan (11/4), Bernie The Bear (3/1), Tommytwohoots (9/2), Frightening (10/1), Socialise (12/1), Captain Dandy (25/1), Tantomile (28/1), Savalas (33/1), Badosa (40/1), Sacred Melody (50/1), Devilwala (80/1)

AUTUMN ANGEL went down fighting when beaten ¾-length by Mashaan over 7f here on Boxing Day and, with this drop back in trip unlikely to be an issue, the scales may well tilt in her favour this time, given that she meets the winner on 5 lb better terms. Savalas was successful over C&D on his latest start and he is third choice ahead of another C&D scorer in Bernie The Bear.
