Hover On The Wind¹⁹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: D C Costello| T: P T Midgley| OR: 75| D

50/1

Not seen since September when 6/1, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, firm). First run for yard after leaving Chris Dwyer and market may guide expectations on reappearance.

Form: 131055-

Twilight Diamond³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 75| D

9/2

Looked potentially useful when making a winning debut in a novice at Wolverhampton (6f) and again showed fairly useful form when second under a penalty at Kempton (6f) 30 days ago, only bettered by a speedier type. Makes plenty of appeal on handicap debut.

Form: 12

Commander Of Life^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: H Crouch| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 75| D

5/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in January. 5/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at this course (8.1f) 14 days ago, racing keenly. Chance if relaxing better back at 6f.

Form: 3-91743

Dark Side Thunder^p²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 74| CD

5/1

4-time C&D winner ran well after 4 months off when 9/1, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (6.1f) 28 days ago, though has run well fresh in the past. Should give another good account.

Form: 70364-4

Cliffcake^p²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: S R Bowring| OR: 73| CD

11/2

Capitalised on his reduced mark to win 9-runner handicap at this course (6.1f) but underlined his inconsistency when fifth of 7 in handicap (7/2) at this course (7.1f) 28 days ago. May find a couple too good in here.

Form: 577-215

(4)

Hierarchy^b,t⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: William Carver| T: J A Osborne| OR: 71| D

13/2

Twenty-one runs since last win in 2023 but is well-treated as a result. Unsuited by modest pace when 9/2, respectable third of 7 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago. Chance if this is to run to suit.

Form: D22253

(6)

Kats Bob^v²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: William Pyle⁽³⁾| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 69| CD

11/2

C&D winner is 2-2 since joining current yard. Career best when winning 6-runner handicap (5/2) at Newcastle (6f) 21 days ago. More on his plate from 4 lb higher but arrives in great heart in bid for the hat-trick.

Form: 422-811

(5)

One More Dream^b1¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 67| CD

13/2

C&D winner. Three wins from 19 runs last year. Creditable fourth of 9 in a decent handicap for the grade at this C&D 13 days ago. Not ruled out with blinkers on for the first time.

Form: 431644

Forecasts

Twilight Diamond (9/2), Commander Of Life (5/1), Dark Side Thunder (5/1), Kats Bob (11/2), Cliffcake (11/2), Hierarchy (13/2), One More Dream (13/2), Hover On The Wind (50/1)

The unexposed TWILIGHT DIAMOND can make a successful handicap debut on the back of a couple of fairly useful efforts in novice events. Commander of Life could be interesting back sprinting having raced too keenly over a mile last time, while One More Dream is respected in his current form, with first-time blinkers to boot.
