The Rain King^t⁶⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: A J Farragher| T: M Wigham| OR: 59| C

9/1

Course winner. Last of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 80/1) 67 days ago. Drops in class so worth checking in the betting back from a short break.

Form: 7068/80

Curtiz³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Oisin Murphy| T: H Morrison| OR: 59| D

6/4

5/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 30 days ago, though he was short of room. Merits consideration with Murphy booked.

Form: 7224-26

Harlington¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan| T: J Tickle| OR: 56

7/4

Successful twice at Wolverhampton during second half of 2024. Respectable third of 9 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, firm, 5/1) 15 days ago. Shortlist material eased 1 lb.

Form: 4-22343

(7)

Baikal^p³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Jordan Williams⁽⁵⁾| T: G Harris| OR: 54| D

18/1

Out of form over hurdles but caused a shock back on the Flat at Lingfield in January. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good to firm, 15/2) 31 days ago.

Form: 807-128

Guinness Lad^h¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Millie Wonnacott⁽⁵⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 53

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Sixth of 9 in handicap (40/1) at Bath (11.6f, firm) 15 days ago, slowly away and typically racing too freely.

Form: 06696

Chelsea Annie^b,h²³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: William Carson| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 46

66/1

Unreliable sort. One win from 23 Flat runs. 2/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Les Landes (8.4f, good to soft). Off 7 months and others more persuasive back in Britain.

Crowd Quake^t⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Ray Dawson| T: S C Williams| OR: 45

11/1

11/2 and tongue strap on for first time, seventh of 11 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 5 days ago. Up in trip for turf debut, which promises to suit.

Form: 6-657

Star Of Sussex¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Ashley Lewis⁽⁷⁾| T: P Butler| OR: 45

80/1

66/1, last of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 12 days ago, going off too hard.

Form: 0P-8660

Duchess^t³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-9| J: Mason Paetel⁽⁷⁾| T: John Berry| OR: 45

13/2

One win from 23 Flat runs. 8/1, fourth of 5 in handicap at Chelmsford City (14f) 39 days ago. Back down in trip but she does seemingly need everything to fall right.

Form: 498-234

Forecasts

Curtiz (6/4), Harlington (7/4), Duchess (13/2), The Rain King (9/1), Crowd Quake (11/1), Willow's Kiss (14/1), Baikal (18/1), Guinness Lad (40/1), Chelsea Annie (66/1), Star Of Sussex (80/1)

Having enjoyed a fairly productive spell on the AW, HARLINGTON shaped as though still in good order when third returned to turf at Bath a fortnight ago. Eased 1 lb, he's the most persuasive option, though Curtiz should be a factor at his level, while Crowd Quake may up his game tackling a new trip.
