22/1

Lightly-raced winner. One win from 3 runs last year. First run since leaving K. R. Burke when good third of 6 in handicap at this course (5.1f, 20/1) 47 days ago, although didn't look the most straightforward. Work to do from this mark.

Handle With Care¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Hollie Doyle| T: M Botti| OR: 75| D

6/1

Forecasts

Orchid (2/1), Powdering (4/1), Scattering Light (9/2), Handle With Care (6/1), Raneenn (6/1), Where's Clare (9/1), Ziggy's Ariel (12/1), Griselda (12/1), Neytiri Te Tskaha (22/1)

HANDLE WITH CARE looked a filly on the up when winning at Lingfield and can lead home a Marco Botti 1-2, with stablemate Scattering Light much respected on handicap debut. Orchid finished last season with a victory and looks interesting on her return.
