11/4

Scored twice at Bath last year and shaped as if still in good heart at the beginning of this year, improved on recent efforts to win a 9-runner handicap (7/2) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 8 days ago, getting up in the shadows of the post. 3 lb rise is fair and ought to go well again with yard in good form.

Form: 4245-31

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 50| CD

7/2

3-time C&D winner. 8/1, improved on recent efforts to win a 10-runner handicap at this C&D 11 days ago, won without usual headgear and tongue-tie back on. Up 5 lb and should be competitive with tongue-tie retained.

Form: 3337-81

Fircombe Hall^p¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Billy Loughnane| T: P A Kirby| OR: 50| CD

7/2

6-time C&D winner. Three wins from 21 runs last year. 10/3, eighth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 11 days ago, ran respectably without posing a serious threat. Has hit the frame on both occasions that Billy Loughnane has ridden and holds place claims once again.

Form: 233-438

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 49| CD

13/2

C&D winner. Latest win here in October. 28/1, last of 6 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 8 days ago, outpaced and unsuited by drop in trip. Back up in trip should help today but needs to improve on recent form.

Form: 62170-6

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Rowan Scott| T: K Scott| OR: 45| D

16/1

Sixth of 7 in a handicap (16/1) at this C&D 18 days ago, struggling following 3-month break. Needs a big step forward from that effort, especially from 1 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 47650-6

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Ethan Tindall⁽⁷⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 45

20/1

Below form when fifth of 7 in a handicap at this C&D 18 days ago and may be up against it again from 1 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 63484-5

Secret Daay^b¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: A Mullen| T: D Thompson| OR: 45

20/1

Remains a maiden after 29 Flat runs but ran better when 4 lengths fourth of 10 to Asadjumeirah in a handicap (28/1) at this C&D 11 days ago. Races from a pound out of the handicap and best to look elsewhere for win purposes.

Form: 06078-4

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Rhys Elliott⁽⁷⁾| T: P Morris| OR: 45| CD

28/1

C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2024. Cheekpieces on for first time, last of 8 in a handicap (14/1) at this C&D 30 days ago and needs more now racing from 1 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 89508-8

40/1

Last of 11 in minor event (40/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 17 days ago, headgear having little impact. Tough ask from 1 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 0600-00

Time Patrol (11/4), Fircombe Hall (7/2), Asadjumeirah (7/2), Ana Emaraaty (13/2), Tommytwohoots (15/2), Warminster (16/1), Tantomile (20/1), Secret Daay (20/1), Badosa (28/1), Barney's Bay (40/1)

TIME PATROL has been in good form all winter and having deservedly got his head in front in first time cheekpieces 8 days ago, he can follow up in a race that doesn't look the strongest on paper. Fircombe Hall has finished in the money on both occasions that Billy Loughnane has taken the reins, so he can hit the frame again along with last time C&D winner Asadjumeirah.
