Flame Of Forest¹⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: S A Gray| T: K R Burke

3/1

Shaped quite well on debut and confirmed that promise when winning 11-runner novice (11/4) at Carlisle (6.9f, good to firm). Off 161 days. May well do better again given yard he represents.

Form: 71

Oursin¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Rob Hornby| T: C Hills| D

4/11

Promising individual. Runner-up in a strong novice on debut in December and won 11-runner novice at Kempton (8f) 17 days ago, plenty in hand. Should have more to offer for in-form stable and looks the one to beat.

Form: 2-1

(1)

Neptune Street¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Harry Russell| T: R A Fahey

66/1

Fifth of 9 in novice (4/1) at Leicester (7f, good to soft) on debut 13 days ago, not knocked about. Should improve.

Form: 5

(3)

They All Know Me⁷⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: R A Fahey| OR: 74

9/1

Continued theme of race-by-race progress when second of 5 in maiden at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 76 days ago. Switches to the AW and he's likely to give it another good go.

Form: 322

Oursin (4/11), Flame Of Forest (3/1), They All Know Me (9/1), Neptune Street (66/1)

OURSIN quickened up in the manner of a useful sort when making his second start a winning one at Kempton 17 days ago and expected to go on from that, he's hard to get away from. Fellow-penalised runner Flame of Forest is promising in his own right, though.
