Horse A-Z
Half-sister to three winners. Finished 12th of 14 in maiden at Ayr (250/1) 26 days ago, slowly into stride and never dangerous. May need more experience.

6/5
Well-bred colt who finished 4th of 12 on debut at Kempton Park (6f, AW) in a hood (11/1) 19 days ago, showing greenness but making late headway. Step up in trip should suit on that evidence and he's one to consider.

£170,000 Dark Angel gelding is bred to be useful. Finished third of 5 in a maiden at Newcastle (16/1) on debut 22 days ago, running on well after being held up and not knocked about. Sure to improve significantly with that experience under the belt.

18/1
Modest debut when seventh of 10 at Wetherby (66/1) before running fifth of 10 in novice event at this course and distance (125/1) 12 days ago, left with plenty to do and not unduly punished. Further improvement not ruled out but may see the best of him in handicaps.

40/1
Showed limited ability when beaten 17 lengths on debut at Thirsk (50/1). Finished sixth of 10 in novice race at this course (80/1) 12 days ago, showing a bit more but not persevered with once held. Needs significant improvement.

5/2
Mehmas filly who left debut effort well behind after 5 months off when second in a Southwell novice (1m) in November. Finished second of 10 in a maiden at Thirsk (7f) 21 days ago, running creditably after 5 months off but had limitations exposed by the promising winner. Should be in the mix again.

Forecasts

Champion Again Ole (6/5), Watch And Shoot (5/2), Highfield Sunshine (5/2), Wicklow Way (18/1), Dorothy May (40/1), Can't Chant (250/1)

Verdict

WATCH AND SHOOT, a well-bred gelding who cost a significant sum at the sales, made an encouraging start when staying on for third at Newcastle without being knocked about. He's taken to improve for that experience and open his account at the expense of Highfield Sunshine, who brings solid form with 2 runner-up finishes from 4 starts, while Champion Again Ole showed promise despite greenness on debut.
