Mojomaker^t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: D Loughnane| OR: 70

5/2

One win from 31 Flat runs. Twenty-eight runs since last win in 2021. 5/1, respectable third of 7 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Strong each-way claims.

Form: 9-38333

Macs Dilemma^h1²⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: James Turner⁽⁵⁾| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 68| CD

33/1

Four-time course winner. 11/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Bath (8f, good to firm), doing too much too soon. Off 8 months and now drops in trip with a first-time hood enlisted. Others have achieved more.

Connie's Rose^t,p²³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: K T O'Neill| T: G Harris| OR: 68| CD

8/1

Six-time course winner. 17/2, last of 8 in handicap at Bath (5f, firm) 23 days ago. Back up in trip and while she has dropped to a potentially handy mark, it's nevertheless easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 5788-78

(7)

Bear Rock¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 67| D

2/1

Career best when winning 17-runner handicap at Haydock (6f, good to firm, 11/1) 17 days ago. 3 lb nudge no great hardship and another bold show is on the cards.

Form: 322-241

(5)

Monkey Miss²⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: William Carson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 64| C| D

66/1

Course winner. 9/2, seventh of 8 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to soft) when last seen 8 months ago. First run for yard after leaving Daniel & Claire Kubler and she's entitled to come on for the run.

Form: 621147-

Saffredi²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Ray Dawson| T: G Harris| OR: 63| BF| D

11/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in April. Creditable third of 12 in handicap (4/1) at the same course (6.1f) 24 days ago. 0-10 on turf but he's certainly not without hope.

Form: 9551-13

(11)

Francisco¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Alfie Redman⁽⁷⁾| T: P R Chamings| OR: 63

7/1

Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 10/1) 17 days ago, overcoming pace bias. Upped just 2 lb and possibilities if able to reproduce that level of form on what will be just his second run on turf.

Form: 282371

Vaunted¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Tom Marquand| T: A Wintle| OR: 62| CD

18/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Kempton in October. 40/1, 13¼ lengths sixteenth of 17 to Bear Rock in handicap at Haydock (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Will need to leave that well behind if she's to have a say in the finish.

Form: U3101-0

(13)

Ten Club^h⁴⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Finley Marsh| T: A Wintle| OR: 61| D

14/1

11/1, good fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 48 days ago. Hasn't made much of an impact both previous appearances on turf, though.

Form: 190-765

(9)

Vape^p²⁰⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 8-12| J: David Probert| T: J L Flint| OR: 59| CD

18/1

C&D winner. 9/1, respectable 4 lengths fourth of 10 to Saffredi in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f). Off 6 months and it's likely that he'll come on for the run.

Form: 163554-

(12)

Moe's Legacy^v¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Rob Hornby| T: R Harris| OR: 59| D

16/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. Last of 6 in handicap back there (5.1f) 14 days ago. 1-19 on turf and she's opposable on balance.

Form: 33100-6

(10)

Bama Lama¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 8-10| J: Oliver Searle⁽⁵⁾| T: B R Millman| OR: 57| CD

33/1

C&D winner. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm, 25/1) 15 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 2415-77

(4)

Radiant Angel^p,t⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Nicola Currie| T: Joe Ponting| OR: 57| D

66/1

Winner at Wolverhampton in February. 9/2, seventh of 8 in handicap at Bath (5f, firm) 8 days ago. Back up in trip and cheekpieces refitted. Others make more appeal.

Form: 152887

Forecasts

Bear Rock (2/1), Mojomaker (5/2), Francisco (7/1), Connie's Rose (8/1), Saffredi (11/1), Ten Club (14/1), Moe's Legacy (16/1), Vape (18/1), Vaunted (18/1), Bama Lama (33/1), Macs Dilemma (33/1), Radiant Angel (66/1), Monkey Miss (66/1)

BEAR ROCK deservedly opened her account with a narrow verdict at Haydock recently and she looks capable of going in again following a 3 lb rise. She may have most to fear from Mojomaker, who doesn't get his head in front at all often but he has been knocking on the door returned to turf of late and looks set for another prominent role. Francisco scored on the all-weather last month and is third on the shortlist ahead of Saffredi.
