Alice's Impact³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Jordan Williams⁽⁵⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 48| D

28/1

Modest filly. First run since leaving John & Sean Quinn when creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 28/1) 3 days ago. Claims if building on that.

Form: 22700-4

Dandy Lichious⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽³⁾| T: T Davidson| OR: 45| D

Form: 709-843

(3)

Evoluir¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 48| C

9/1

Off the mark at this course (6f) in October and ran to similar level when creditable ½-length third of 12 to Van Zant in minor event over C&D (5/1) 15 days ago. Ought to give another good account.

Form: 1658-43

(6)

Kapparis Kid¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Jack Doughty⁽³⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 50| C

9/2

Temperamental sort. Course winner (6f) earlier this month but disappointed at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 12 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 0446-18

Motagally^h,t¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: D Swift| T: S Dixon| OR: 46

80/1

Thirty one runs since last win in 2020. 10 lengths eighth of 12 to Van Zant in minor event at this C&D (33/1) 15 days ago. Work to do.

Form: 5990-08

(5)

Mr Slicker^p¹³

Age: 11| Weight: 9-9| J: Joe Leavy⁽³⁾| T: Sarah Hollinshead| OR: 45| D

11/1

Modest gelding. Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. Good third of 8 in minor event at this course (8.1f, 9/1) 13 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 3456-33

(2)

Van Zant^p¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Joanna Mason| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 49| CD

6/1

Returned to form when second at Wolverhampton (7.2f) earlier this month and went one better in 12-runner minor event (7/2) over C&D 15 days ago. Another bold bid is on the cards.

Form: 600-821

Wedgewood Sapphire²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: William Carson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 48

80/1

Modest filly. Last of 12 in minor event at this C&D (12/1) 26 days ago. Something to prove at present.

Form: 84150-0

Forecasts

Cloch Nua (6/4), Kapparis Kid (9/2), Dandy Lichious (5/1), Van Zant (6/1), Evoluir (9/1), Mr Slicker (11/1), Alice's Impact (28/1), Wedgewood Sapphire (80/1), Motagally (80/1)

Preference is for VAN ZANT, who showed a good attitude when returning to winning ways here earlier this month. The hat-trick seeking Cloch Nua is feared most, whilst Evoluir should also go well.
