Extra Winnings With BetUK Acca Club Handicap

Off time: 17:00 | Winning time: 2m 2.64s

Soi Dao²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Finley Marsh| T: A Wintle| OR: 60| CD

66/1

Course winner who never figured on the back of 4 months off when last of 8 in handicap (33/1) at this course (8.6f) 21 days ago. Fallen to a handy mark is she can step up on that effort here.

Form: 39025-8

Hawa Jumeirah²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Raul Da Silva| T: I Mohammed & J Santos| OR: 59| BF| C

16/1

Value for extra when opening his account in handicap here (12.2f) in January. Excuses when beaten at short odds next time and feasible to think he failed to stay when sixth of 8 in handicap here (14f) 21 days ago. Not one to write off down in trip.

Form: 885-146

My Brother Mike¹⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: D Loughnane| OR: 58| CD

8/1

Veteran 4-time course winner who confirmed promise of previous run kept handier when winning 9-runner handicap at this C&D (9/4) 14 days ago, driven out. Respected nudged up 3 lb.

Form: 14-0951

Sceptic⁷²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: Ian Williams| OR: 57

3/1

Well helds for Pat Morris and fared no better re-united with this yard when last of 10 in handicap (50/1) at Southwell (8.1f) in December. Tumbled down the weights as a result, so worth a precautionary market check for positive vibes following a break.

Form: 800000-

Celebrating Ethel²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Jack Doughty⁽³⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 57| D

20/1

Just the one win from 26 Flat runs and posted pair of creditable runners-up efforts prior to a lesser effort when seventh of 8 in handicap (14/1) at this course (8.6f) 21 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 988-227

(3)

Enzos Angel^p,t²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 56| CD

3/1

Confirmed promise of previous run with cheekpiecesrefitted when successful in 9-runner C&D minor event in January. Backed that up with a good second back here 22 days ago, finding only an unexposed sort too strong and respected in present groove.

Form: 007-612

(8)

City Escape^b,e/s⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 55| CD

5/1

Thriving mare who arrives having landed back-to-back C&D handicaps in recent weeks, overcoming a troubled passage and a pace bias for the latest of them 8 days ago. Escapes a penalty for that and she's high on the shortlist re-united with Billy Loughnane.

Form: 64-3311

(4)

Life On The Rocks^v⁴⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 54

7/2

Four wins from 17 runs last year. Seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (8.6f, 33/1) 45 days ago, no extra final 1f. Further drop in class can only help and another worth noting if the market spoke in his favour back from 45 days off.

Form: 606-987

Olympic Quest¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: Joe Ponting| OR: 53| CD

100/1

Course winner who posted a good second here on final outing of last term in October. Likely needed the run after 4 months off when 10¼ lengths seventh of 8 to City Escape in handicap (25/1) at this C&D 14 days ago. Comes here operating 1 lb below last winning mark.

Form: 58052-7

(1)

Mykonos St John^v¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 8-13| J: Mikkel Mortensen⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 50| CD

50/1

Course winner. Three wins from 20 runs last year. 10/1, 7¾ lengths last of 9 to My Brother Mike in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, slowly away and always behind. Others more persuasive.

Form: 4-77659

(2)

Aeroplane Mode³⁷⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: J Butler| OR: 48| BF

33/1

Maiden who was well backed but ultimately ran poorly when eleventh of 12 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 12 months ago. Absent since and the betting can likely prove a good guide as to expectations.

Form: 0733/60-

Forecasts

Sceptic (3/1), Enzos Angel (3/1), Life On The Rocks (7/2), City Escape (5/1), My Brother Mike (8/1), Hawa Jumeirah (16/1), Celebrating Ethel (20/1), Aeroplane Mode (33/1), Mykonos St John (50/1), Soi Dao (66/1), Olympic Quest (100/1)

CITY ESCAPE has been in resurgent form, landing back-to-back C&D handicaps in recent weeks, and, escaping a penalty for the latest of them 8 days ago, she looks a serious player in her bid to complete the hat-trick. Enzos Angel and My Brother Mike are fellow in-form sorts and feared most.
