Wonder Legend³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J Ferguson| OR: 96| BF| C| D

11/10

Lightly-raced 5-y-o is a course winner who justified good support when resuming winning ways in 7-runner handicap (evens) at Southwell (14.1f) in November. Matched that effort after 11-weeks off when second to a progressive winner at Kempton (16f) last month. Leading chance.

Form: 5/6231-2

Plage De Havre³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 92

13/8

Showed further improvement when first past the post in 10-runner event at Southwell (12.1f, 7/2) in January, demoted to second having bumped rival. Gained compensation when winning readily at Newcastle (12.5f) 35 days ago and there should be more to come over this longer trip.

Form: 6/22-21

Circuit Breaker²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Cieren Fallon| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 87

11/2

Fit from hurdling, got back on track returned to the Flat latest, finishing creditable third of 9 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f) 21 days ago, outpaced and plugged on. Likely they'll make plenty of use of his stamina now dropping back 2 furlongs. Claims.

Form: 712/36-3

Fleurman^p⁷³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: Paddy Bradley| T: P Morris| OR: 84| C| D

66/1

Course winner went in snatches when fifth of 6 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 73 days ago, on final run for Olly Murphy. Needs to bounce back on stable debut.

Form: 59575-5

Road To Wembley²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 78| C

14/1

Offered little when 100/1, last of 9 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 24 days ago. Significantly back up in trip but hard to fancy on recent evidence.

Form: 2174-99

Forecasts

Wonder Legend (11/10), Plage De Havre (13/8), Circuit Breaker (11/2), Road To Wembley (14/1), Fleurman (66/1)

WONDER LEGEND shaped with plenty of credit when second at Kempton after 11 weeks off, and he can step forward from that run to record his second win of the season. The progressive Plage de Havre is feared tackling this longer trip, while Circuit Breaker has the form to be in the mix.
