One More Bottle³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: Lizzie Quinlan

200/1

Well held both starts in bumpers and fared no better in pair of starts in this sphere, third of 5 in maiden at this course (7.1f, 150/1) 35 days ago. Low-grade handicaps will be more suitable after this.

Form: 63

Sogannie²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr

100/1

Sogann filly who showed ability when keeping-on third of 5 in novice at this course (7.1f, 25/1) on debut 21 days ago. Yard have enjoyed plenty of success with this family but she's probably one for handicaps later on.

Form: 3

(13)

Double Parked¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 75

9/4

Bated Breath gelding who was much-improved switched to all-weather after 6 months off when third of 8 in maiden at this course (6f) 19 days ago. Definite claims with a repeat now

Form: 88-3

(12)

Georgecandoit¹⁸⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 76

11/2

Fair gelding who made the frame on first 5 starts before shaping as if amiss when tenth of 11 in nursery at Pontefract (6f, heavy) in October. Appeals as the type to bounce back now embarking on 3-y-o campaign and he's unexposed at 7f.

Hurricane Bea¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: T Eaves| T: Miss Tracy Waggott

150/1

Twice-raced maiden. 200/1, seventh of 12 in maiden at this course (7.1f) 12 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Best watched.

Form: 9-7

Shamador¹⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 74

7/2

Came clear with an experienced rival when second of 12 in a C&D maiden in September. Unable to match that either start thereafter but it remains early days with him and no great surprise to see him back to form following 6 months off/gelding operation.

Form: 276-

Bin Ajwad

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Loughnane| T: J Tate

15/8

€8,000 yearling, €5,000 2-y-o, Magna Grecia colt. Half-brother to 1¼m winner Amona and 2-y-o 6.3f/7f winner Coral Beach, both useful. Dam unraced. One to note in the betting on debut.

Form:

(5)

Four Fifty

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S H James| T: Craig Lidster

16/1

Ulysses colt. Half-brother to 1m-1¼m winner Night Arc and 1¼m winner Kouthni Maak. Dam 7f winner.

Aoife's Thunder¹¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: K Shoemark| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole

28/1

Churchill filly. 40/1, showed a bit when sixth of 9 in novice at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut in December, weakening early in the straight. This should reveal more.

Form: 6-

(4)

Carida^h¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Jason Hart| T: M Herrington

28/1

7,000 gns yearling, Havana Gold filly. Hooded, fifth of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 66/1) on debut 19 days ago, making late headway having raced off the pace. Handicaps further down the line will probably be more her thing.

Form: 5

City Of Strangers²⁰⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: I Furtado

40/1

Twice-raced maiden. 22/1, fifth of 9 in maiden at Beverley (5f, good to firm), slowly away. Off 6 months. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Craig Lidster.

Form: 45-

Storm Kitty^p1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler

200/1

Twice-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 5 in maiden at this course (10.2f) 12 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.

Form: 65

Forecasts

Bin Ajwad (15/8), Double Parked (9/4), Shamador (7/2), Princess Pw (5/1), Georgecandoit (11/2), Four Fifty (16/1), Carida (28/1), Aoife's Thunder (28/1), City Of Strangers (40/1), Sogannie (100/1), Hurricane Bea (150/1), One More Bottle (200/1), Storm Kitty (200/1)

GEORGECANDOIT disappointed on his final 2-y-o start but the pick of his form gives him sound claims on this return to action now tackling 7f and AW for the first time. The fellow returning Shamador, Double Parked and Princess Pw head up the dangers. Newcomer Bin Ajwad commands a check in the betting for positive vibes.
