Off time: 17:19 | Winning time: 3m 49.24s

Sinchi Roca⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁵⁾| T: Anthony Charlton| OR: 110| D

15/8

£70,000 buy after a point win and he followed up in Taunton bumper for new connections 8 weeks ago, displaying a good turn of foot. Useful prospect who is probably capable of defying a penalty.

Form: 11

Kiss Gold

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Sean Houlihan| T: P Hobbs & J White

9/1

Rail Link gelding. Half-brother to 1½m winner on Flat in France Jolly Gold. Dam maiden on Flat in France. The stable has some good bumper performers to compare him to so a market move would be interesting. Yard also runs Can You Hear Me.

Form:

Old Park Star⁷³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Freddie Gingell| T: P F Nicholls

6/4

Fair form when placed in bumpers at Sandown and Kempton 3 months apart. Likely to be in the thick of things again for an in-form leading stable.

Form: 32

Pink Pony Club

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Lorcan Williams| T: J Scott

13/2

Frontiersman gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 3½m) Across The Bay. The stable has a 5-64 bumper record in the last 5 seasons.

Form:

Gone Girl⁷²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: Harry Bannister| T: O Signy

66/1

40/1, ninth of 13 in bumper at Warwick (2m, soft) on debut 72 days ago. Needs to leave that well behind.

Form: 9

Can You Hear Me³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Ben Jones| T: P Hobbs & J White

7/1

Vadamos gelding who showed definite ability when sixth of 13 on Kempton debut last month, unable to sustain run after making headway into a challenging position. May do better.

Form: 6

Crown Khov³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: James Bowen| T: T H Weston

125/1

11/1, finished well behind the reopposing Can You Hear Me on Kempton debut 37 days ago.

Form: 0

River Glance⁵⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: James Best| T: Mrs E Bishop

66/1

Looks more one for the longer term based on his opening seventh of 14 on Huntingdon debut last month.

Form: 7

Dreamfyre Dancer

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Ben Godfrey| T: H Brown

150/1

£1,000 3-y-o purchase by Dragon Dancer. Dam (c90/h79) 2½m chase winner (stayed 23f). Likely outsider on debut.

Form:

Non-Runners

Romany King¹⁴¹

Weight: 11-3| Age: 6

Forecasts

Old Park Star (6/4), Sinchi Roca (15/8), Pink Pony Club (13/2), Romany King (13/2), Can You Hear Me (7/1), Kiss Gold (9/1), River Glance (66/1), Gone Girl (66/1), Crown Khov (125/1), Dreamfyre Dancer (150/1)

SINCHI ROCA impressed when quickening up nicely to win on his Taunton bumper debut and is taken to defy a penalty, most likely at the main expense of Old Park Star and Can You Hear Me unless the betting speaks strongly for one of the newcomers.
