9/1

C&D winner. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 11/1) 12 days ago. Still 5 lb above last winning mark but he can be a factor again.

Mister Daydream⁶^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: A Mullen| T: C Johnston| OR: 72| D

17/2

Arrives on the back of a career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm) 6 days ago, supplementing his Beverley success. Penalty to carry in a better race but he still commands respect.

Form: 354-511

Fox Avatar¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian| OR: 76| D

5/2

Frankel gelding who showed the benefit of his first run when winning 7-runner novice at Beverley (9.9f) in September. Seemed unsuited by conditions when fifth of 7 in novice at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) on final 2024 but hooded, he caught the eye on reappearance/handicap debut at Chelmsford.

Form: 315-4

Gincident^h¹⁸

Landed strong support starting out for new yard art Leicester last month, Third of 5 in handicap (10/11) at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Up in trip. Hood back on. Expected to be bang there.

4/1

Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Epsom (12f, good to firm, 11/2) 18 days ago. Not fully exposed and may sharpen up for that outing.

Party Island²²

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: Jason Watson| T: D J Coakley| OR: 68| D

7/1

Creditable sixth of 16 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 8/1) 22 days ago. Has work to do with his lower turf mark justified.

Form: 35-9576

Forecasts

Fox Avatar (5/2), Dashinwhitesargent (4/1), Gincident (6/1), Hamlet's Night (7/1), Party Island (7/1), Mister Daydream (17/2), Morcar (9/1), Mostawaa (18/1), Croeso Cymraeg (40/1)

Low-mileage 4-y-o FOX AVATAR caught the eye when fourth on handicap debut/reappearance at Chelmsford a fortnight ago and expected to step up on that, he could be the answer. Gincident looks ready for this trip so he's a major threat, with Dashinwhitesargent also of interest.
