10/3

Bagged a pair of handicaps (around 2m3f) at Kelso and Catterick after Christmas but he failed to stay 3m when pulled up at Ludlow last month. Others appeal more kept to this trip.

Form: 2-P411P

La Dolce Dolly²¹

5/4

On the up since sent handicapping and she got off the mark at Plumpton (25f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Looks to have more to offer as a stayer so big shout despite a 4 lb weights rise.

6/4

Dual winner in mares' hurdles in spring 2023 but has been more miss than hit since, beating only one in 25f Plumpton handicap last time. Handily weighted if back on song though.

Forecasts

La Dolce Dolly (5/4), Pure Theatre (6/4), Briefly (11/4), Komedy Kicks (10/3), Calli Black (16/1)

LA DOLCE DOLLY arrives on an upward curve so is fancied to make light of a 4 lb rise in the weights and follow up her breakthrough Plumpton victory. Calli Black could emerge as the one to give Andy Irvine's mare most to do on the back of a wind op, with Pure Theatre also in the mix if on her A-game.
