Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. 13/2, respectable second of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 18 days ago, well positioned. Expected to be bang there.
|
Promise on first of 2 starts in bumpers but failed to complete all 3 starts over hurdles. Little to shout about in trio of AW starts on the Flat but switch to handicaps/significant step in trip in his favour now and market confidence behind him would look significant.
|
C&D winner who ended long losing run under testing conditions at Ffos Las (10f) in August. Recent hurdles exploits haven't been so positive but booking of Billy Loughnane catches the eye returned to this sphere/following wind surgery.
|
Course winner. 50/1, not seen to best effect when seventh of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 18 days ago, needing stiffer test. Mark has eased further and he's not dismissed out of hand.
|
4-time course winner. 7/2, didn't need to improve to win 8-runner minor event at this C&D 12 days ago, just holding on. Expected to be thereabouts returned to handicap company.
|
Maiden who, refitted with a hood/tongue tie, stepped up on stable debut effort when sixth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 18 days ago. Now her task is to build on that run returned to this longer trip.
|
Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 40/1 and blinkered for 1st time, seventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 44 days ago, off bridle before most and never a threat. Back up in trip.
|
Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 11 in handicap (20/1) at this C&D in November, racing in rear and never a threat. Hood goes back on in place of the cheekpieces and more needed.

Forecasts
Harry The Haggler (7/4), Smokey Malone (15/8), Send In The Clouds (15/2), Alioski (10/1), Zousca (11/1), Chantilly Moon (16/1), Miss Raindrop (18/1), Sweet Painted Lady (33/1)
SMOKEY MALONE's latest C&D victory came in a classified event but this hardly appeals as a strong handicap, so this 4-time course winner could be worth siding with to follow up, having been competitive from higher marks last winter. Harry The Haggler following his good Wolverhampton second and Send In The Clouds are others to consider. Market confidence behind handicap debutant Chantilly Moon would also need to be viewed positively.
