Won 13-runner handicap at Kempton Park (10/3) 6 days ago, perked up by the fitting of first-time visor. Obvious claims if in the same form under a penalty.

Kessaar Power³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Billy Loughnane| T: P S McEntee| OR: 49| CD

7/2

Two-time course winner who finished last of 13 in a handicap at Brighton (28/1) 31 days ago, running poorly after a 13-week break. Could do better back here.

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 48| CD

11/1

Won a handicap at this C&D (40/1) 35 days ago but finished last of 10 at Lingfield (11/1) 23 days ago, taking a strong hold and never threatening. First-time blinkers replace visor and could revive back here.

18/1

Long-standing maiden who was second at Lingfield Park (50/1) in August, then fifth of 13 here over 7f (17/2) 35 days ago. Remains difficult to recommend for the win.

Madrigal Moment¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: D Egan| T: M L W Bell| OR: 45

28/1

Showed promise when 2nd at Ripon but disappointing since, finishing 11th of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (25/1) 16 days ago after setting pace and weakening 2f out. Step down in trip might help.

Form: 80-7200

(7)

Poke The Bear^t1²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Tyler Heard| T: Hayley Burton| OR: 45

80/1

Poor performer who offered nothing when 11th of 12 at Kempton (16/1) on return for new trainer 28 days ago. First-time tongue strap.

Form: 57606-0

Forecasts

My Boy Harry (85/40), Cuban Fiesta (11/4), Kessaar Power (7/2), Wild Embers (7/1), Iftikhaar (11/1), Maury (18/1), Capallcliste (18/1), Madrigal Moment (28/1), Broadhaven Bay (50/1), Poke The Bear (80/1)

MY BOY HARRY was perked up by a visor when scoring at Kempton last week and can defy a penalty to follow up. Kessaar Power and Iftikhaar could both return to form back at Chelmsford and are feared.
