Experienced 7yo with three C&D wins but out of form for much of this year and without a win in 24 races. Showed signs of revival when third of 14 in handicap over C&D (3/1 favourite) 20 days ago. Could be returning to something like her best form.

Form: 000883

(4)

Northerner⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Shay Farmer| T: B Ellison| OR: 46

25/1

Showed ability when third in 5f handicap here in September but offered little when 13th of 14 in handicap at this C&D (14/1) 8 days ago after breathing operation. Without a win in 15 races, needs significant improvement to make an impact.

(2)

Spartan Fighter^v⁵¹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-9| J: Ethan Tindall| T: A Brittain| OR: 45| CD

22/1

Form: 506860

Forecasts

Spun To Gold (6/5), Asadjumeirah (11/4), Catherine Chroi (9/2), Em Jay Kay (8/1), Spartan Fighter (22/1), Northerner (25/1), Nazca (28/1), Bernie The Bear (50/1), Nazalan (66/1)

SPUN TO GOLD has been thriving since returning to the all-weather, winning at C&D in October and at Southwell recently, and still has significant handicapping potential. Catherine Chroi, a three-time C&D winner, showed signs of revival when third here 20 days ago and could be returning to her best. Em Jay Kay won over C&D just 6 days ago and remains competitive despite his penalty.
