Noodle Mission³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: P J McDonald| T: E Smyth-Osbourne| OR: 82| CD

15/2

C&D winner. Six wins from 23 Flat runs. Tenth of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to firm, 13/2) 30 days ago. Has slipped a dangerous mark, but he clearly needs to bounce back.

Form: 160-000

Altmore²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: E Bethell| OR: 81

11/4

8/1 and blinkered for 1st time, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Haydock (7f, good to firm) 24 days ago. 1 lb lower on debut for new yard and he's well worth a second look.

Form: 26-7054

Think Climate⁶⁶⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Ali Husain⁽⁷⁾| T: Wayne Lukas| OR: 80| CD

50/1

Fitted with a first-time hood and pulled up in a juvenile hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f, good to soft, 9/1) on NH debut/sole start for James Owen back in October 2023. Absent since and can only be watched on debut for new yard following such a layoff.

Ziggy's Condor²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: J Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 76| C

9/2

Course winner. Respectable third of 9 in handicap (13/2) at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to firm) 27 days ago. 1 lb lower now and he's a key player.

Form: 444003

Master Richard²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: D Nolan| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 75| D

7/1

Twenty runs since last win in 2023. Sixth of 9 in handicap (9/1) at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to firm) 27 days ago, slowly away. Not without each-way hope.

Form: 6-40486

Beauty Choice²⁰⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 75| D

50/1

Ninth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (22/1), merely passing beaten rivals. Off 6 months and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 32371-9

Savvy Exchange⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: R Havlin| T: S Woods| OR: 74

13/2

Good fourth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 9/1) 47 days ago and should make his presence felt off the same mark.

Form: 973-064

Lessay^v³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 73| D

12/1

Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 8/1) 33 days ago, faring best of those held up. Place possibilities.

Form: 047645

Chola Empire⁶⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Shepherd| T: D M Simcock| OR: 73| CD

25/1

Three-time C&D winner, the latest gained in February. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, firm, 16/1) 67 days ago, folding tamely. Needs considering.

Form: 414907

Habrdi¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 72| D

25/1

28/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 18 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Others make more appeal.

Form: 060797

Silver Trumpet^p¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 71| CD

9/2

C&D winner. Fifth of 8 in handicap (7/1) at Newbury (8f, firm) 18 days ago, hampered. Cheekpieces back on and it's not hard to envisage this 4-y-o taking a hand in the finish.

Bold Suitor¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-12| J: Georgia Dobie| T: Craig Benton| OR: 69| D

18/1

Three wins from 9 runs this year. 5/2, improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap at Kempton (8f) 19 days ago, readily. 6 lb rise demands more, but he's clearly in good heart and merits respect in his hat-trick bid.

Altmore (11/4), Silver Trumpet (9/2), Ziggy's Condor (9/2), Savvy Exchange (13/2), Master Richard (7/1), Noodle Mission (15/2), Ultramarine (10/1), Lessay (12/1), Bold Suitor (18/1), Habrdi (25/1), Chola Empire (25/1), Beauty Choice (50/1), Think Climate (50/1)

The vote goes to ZIGGY'S CONDOR, who returned to form following a couple of no-shows in big-field York handicaps when third at Musselburgh at the beginning of the month, leaving the strong impression that his turn may again be near. Savvy Exchange is feared most, but only marginally as Altmore and Silver Trumpet both command respect, too. The hat-trick seeking Bold Suitor also enters calculations.
