Until Dawn^h²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: T Eaves| T: A D Brown| OR: 68| BF| D

4/1

Latest win at Southwell in February. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 11/4) 21 days ago, no match for winner. Merits consideration.

Form: 05-4112

Bella Love¹⁷³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Elle-May Croot⁽⁵⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 67| BF

12/1

Creditable third of 10 in nursery (9/2) at Newcastle (5f). Off 173 days ahead of this debut for new yard and she's likely to find one or two too good.

Form: 322763-

Natsumi^t¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 66| D

6/1

8/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 12 days ago, well positioned. Expected to be bang there up just 2 lb.

Form: 65120-1

Fear And Fast¹⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Paddy Bradley| T: I Mohammed| OR: 66| BF

5/1

7/4, respectable 2¾ lengths third of 6 to Jeany May in nursery at Nottingham (5f, soft). Off 154 days and he looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Form: 704083-

Jeany May¹⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Alex Jary⁽⁵⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 66| D

10/1

10/3, career best when winning 6-runner nursery at Nottingham (5f, soft) by 2 lengths from She Went Whoosh, suited by strong pace. Off 154 days and more needed up 6 lb but she needs considering all the same.

Form: 982331-

Tees Aggregates¹⁸⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Harrison Shaw| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 65| D

12/1

Below form sixth of 10 in nursery at this C&D (soft, 12/1) when last seen 6 months ago. Gelded. Others make more appeal.

Form: 351366-

(12)

The Feminine Urge³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: D Egan| T: George Scott| OR: 65| C

18/1

Course winner. 50/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 35 days ago. Looks set for another struggle.

Form: 61897-9

(11)

Beerwah¹³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Harry Russell| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 64

22/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, seventh of 11 in nursery at Newcastle (6f). Off 138 days and, though 3 lb lower here, he's opposable.

Form: 36047-

(5)

Early Release²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jordan Williams⁽⁵⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 63

10/1

Winner at Southwell in December. Sixth of 8 in handicap (4/1) at the same course (5f) 21 days ago. Would have a chance if able to reproduce his improved AW form now returned to turf.

Form: 971-336

(13)

Fallen Soldier²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 63

11/1

11/2, eighth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 27 days ago. Too free with cheekpieces enlisted on that occasion but the headgear is now discarded and he's on a fair mark if able to put his best foot forward here.

Form: 4-23438

(7)

Coiled¹⁹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: D Allan| T: Andrew Martin| OR: 62

33/1

Hooded for 1st time, twelfth of 14 in nursery at Southwell (5f, 22/1) on final start of 2024. First run for yard after leaving Eve Johnson Houghton and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 323030-

(14)

She Went Whoosh²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J McDonald| T: R Hannon| OR: 61

10/1

18/1, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 27 days ago. Down another 1 lb and she has to enter calculations.

Form: 332-524

(2)

Solar Biricz¹⁸⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 61| D

12/1

Ninth of 10 in nursery at this C&D (soft, 12/1). Off 6 months and he's probably worth taking on.

Form: 083129-

(9)

Barmyblade¹⁸⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 50

33/1

Last of 10 in nursery at this C&D (soft, 50/1) on final run of his 2-y-o campaign and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 797750-

Forecasts

Until Dawn (4/1), Fear And Fast (5/1), Natsumi (6/1), Jeany May (10/1), She Went Whoosh (10/1), Early Release (10/1), Fallen Soldier (11/1), Tees Aggregates (12/1), Bella Love (12/1), Solar Biricz (12/1), The Feminine Urge (18/1), Beerwah (22/1), Barmyblade (33/1), Coiled (33/1)

If the improvement NATSUMI and Until Dawn have shown on the all-weather in recent months is carried over now back on turf they will both have every chance. Marginal preference is for the former, who displayed a willing attitude at Lingfield last time and remains on a workable mark up 2 lb. She Went Whoosh is third choice, while Fallen Solider is also worth a look.
