Havechatma^b⁵⁹

14/1

Latest win at Southwell in January. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at the same course (5f, 7/1) 59 days ago. 0-7 on turf and she's probably worth taking on.

50/1

Winner at Wolverhampton in March. 9½ lengths thirteenth of 14 to So Smart in handicap (33/1) at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago, not ideally placed. Another who is evidently more of a force on synthetics.

Form: 64-8710

Forecasts

Maharajas Express (85/40), All Ways Glamorous (5/2), Merrimack (13/2), So Smart (7/1), Fenlander (7/1), Hk Fourteen (8/1), Miggy Magic (10/1), Havechatma (14/1), My Awele (16/1), Cabeza De Llave (28/1), Kento (50/1)

Having performed with plenty of credit over C&D on his return/handicap debut, ALL WAYS GLAMOROUS could be the answer. Merrimack and Maharajas Express both found just one too good last time, too, and they rate the main dangers in that order of preference. So Smart resumed winning ways at Lingfield recently and he also has claims.
