Many A Star^t⁶^{(ex 4)}

Age: 8| Weight: 9-12| J: William Carver| T: J A Osborne| OR: 77| BF| CD

6/1

Took advantage of reduced mark when getting back to winning ways in 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) prior to a good third of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 10/3) 6 days ago, running on. Respected out quickly under a penalty.

Form: 383-313

Lucky Man^b⁵³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: R Havlin| T: R Spencer| OR: 80| CD

16/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Windsor in August. 22/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 53 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Others rate stronger at present.

Lir Speciale^v¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 79| BF| D

13/2

Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 5/2 and visored for 1st time, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 17 days ago, left poorly placed and noted doing his best work at the finish. Respected from his reduced mark for all a return to 7f may suit ideally.

Form: 06476-5

Ormolulu⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁷⁾| T: G Tutty| OR: 79| CD

9/2

4-time C&D winner. Latest win here in January. Ninth of 11 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 11/1) 9 days ago, not seen to best effect following another slow start in a steadily-run affair. No surprise to see a better showing returned to this trip.

Form: 3161-19

Bulldog Drummond^b¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Joanna Mason| T: P Owens| OR: 79| D

28/1

Very good 2¼ lengths third of 7 to Many A Star in handicap (14/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 11 days ago, running on. That was his best effort since his Newmarket success in the summer if he can build on it here.

Mahato^t²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Cieren Fallon| T: W J Haggas| OR: 78| D

15/2

Lightly-raced winner who ran up to best equipped with a tongue tie when second at Wolverhampton (6f) in December. Subsequent effort when ninth of 11 in handicap (17/2) at Newcastle (6f) 27 days ago was disappointing, though.

Admiral D²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 77| D

14/1

Ungenuine type. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 9/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 27 days ago, running on. No sure thing to be in same form here.

Form: 002794-

Filly One²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁵⁾| T: G R Oldroyd| OR: 77| D

18/1

Won each of her 2 starts at Newcastle (6f) as a juvenile last winter. Off 12 months, shaped as if better for the run when sixth of 10 in handicap (18/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 25 days ago. Surprise where she not capable of better and interesting if market spoke in her favour.

Form: 11/6-

(7)

Minnesota Lad³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: D Swift| T: I Furtado| OR: 76| D

13/2

First run since leaving Richard Fahey when very good second of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 15/2) 34 days ago, a wider trip than his conqueror arguably the difference. Has good chance on form.

Form: 410062-

(11)

Counsel^t⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Billy Loughnane| T: M Appleby| OR: 74

14/1

20/1, shaped as if better for the run after 7 months off when sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (5f) 42 days ago. Back up in trip and likely to be back to his best with that under his belt.

Form: 2/12436-

Harry Did^t²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽³⁾| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 73| D

5/1

Leicester maiden winner (6f) in July. Looked unlucky not to finish closer when eighth on return at Wolverhampton (6f) in December but failed to build on that with a tongue tie fitted (retained here) when seventh of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 27 days ago. Still, not one to write off.

Mojomaker^b,t¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: R Kingscote| T: D Loughnane| OR: 73

16/1

One win from 27 Flat runs. 10/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 17 days ago, having run of race. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 4/4049-3

Forecasts

Ormolulu (9/2), Harry Did (5/1), Many A Star (6/1), Minnesota Lad (13/2), Lir Speciale (13/2), Mahato (15/2), Counsel (14/1), Admiral D (14/1), Mojomaker (16/1), Lucky Man (16/1), Filly One (18/1), Bulldog Drummond (28/1)

MINNESOTA LAD made a solid start for his new yard after 3 months off when runner-up at Wolverhampton 5 weeks ago and he's given the narrow vote to build on that here. Ormolulu, returned to sprinting, and Many A Star are others to consider, whilst low-mileage 4-y-o Filly One appeals as the type who can do better, too.
