3YO plus | Class 4 | 2m | 13 Runners | Turf

(1)

Stayer who goes well in mud and won 6-runner handicap at Ffos Las (2/1) 57 days ago on first start for new yard, using stamina with attacking ride. Could be progressive with testing conditions.

Call My Bluff^p²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-3| J: J F Egan| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 82| CD

Former useful performer who placed in good flat handicaps in 2023 but hasn't won for over 4 years. Showed some ability when 4th of 8 in handicap over C&D (33/1) 21 days ago, returning from a break and making the running.

Form: 2023/94

(3)

It's All About You^p³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: George Wood| T: J Candlish| OR: 80| BF| D

Won at Chester (15.9f) on firm ground 67 days ago but disappointed when 8th of 10 in handicap at Ripon (16f) at 7/2 39 days ago, reportedly with previous firm ground run having taken the edge off. Needs to bounce back from recent underperformances.

Form: 311-018

(11)

High Point^p¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Burdon| OR: 79

Won a 14f handicap at Haydock (18/1) 39 days ago before finishing fifth of 8 in a similar handicap (6/1) 19 days ago when picked off after leading briefly. Could be more competitive at this level.

Form: 770315

(10)

Ehteyat^b⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: O J Orr| T: M K Flannery| OR: 78

Won by 8½ lengths at Listowel (14f) in September and followed up with second at Roscommon (12f). Third of 16 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 9 days ago (12/1), early forward move possibly taking toll late on. Being stepped back up in trip should suit well given previous winning form. Has rejoined former yard.

Form: 539123

Trojan Sun^p¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Lauren Young⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 77| C| D

In good form, winning twice including at Musselburgh over 16f. First of 8 in handicap at this course over 18f on heavy ground (5/1) 13 days ago, producing a career best in extreme conditions. Player.

Won a 14f handicap (8 runners) at this course (6/1) 13 days ago, rallying after being headed 2f out to lead again final 50 yards. Proven form in staying handicaps.

(7)

Circuit Breaker²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: K Stott| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 75| D

Regressive form in recent seasons, finished ninth of 16 in handicap at York (20/1) 25 days ago, making running before dropping away. Unlikely to reverse this trend.

Form: 6-35609

(8)

Expressionless^p¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Kyle Strydom| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 70| C

Won over 14f at this course (13/2) 34 days ago, but disappointed when 4th of 12 in handicap at Newbury (4/1) 11 days ago after being nudged up in weight. Yet to be tested over this extreme trip.

Form: 293414

(9)

Fair Dinkum^t²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Taryn Langley⁽⁵⁾| T: J Scott| OR: 70| D

Won twice at 14f (turf) in September and October before finishing second of 5 in handicap at Kempton (3/1) 21 days ago, staying on well after being patiently ridden. Continues in top form and looks capable off his career-high mark.

Form: 778112

Seeking Charles¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: D C Costello| T: M D I Usher| OR: 69

Stepped up markedly on AW reappearance when 3rd of 12 in handicap at Newbury (66/1) 11 days ago. Significant step up in trip now poses a question.

Form: 7826-03

Forecasts

Russian Rumour (3/1), Trojan Sun (9/2), Maxident (6/1), Dreams Adozen (7/1), Ehteyat (8/1), It's All About You (12/1), Fair Dinkum (12/1), Expressionless (14/1), Seeking Charles (14/1), High Point (20/1), Circuit Breaker (20/1), Call My Bluff (25/1), Torcello (33/1)

EHTEYAT has been in fine fettle with an impressive Listowel win and creditable Galway third. The step back up in trip should suit perfectly. Trojan Sun produced a career best when winning over course and distance recently and rates a danger, while Russian Rumour was a wide-margin winner under similar conditions at Ffos Las last time.
