Ended last year in good form and made it 2 wins from his last 4 starts with a narrow success in 9-runner handicap (9/4) at Newcastle (8f) 9 days ago. Respected back down at this level.

Reddeef^t⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Darragh Keenan| T: Michael Keady| OR: 64

10/1

Remains a maiden and, without any headgear after 6 weeks off, looked a hard ride when seventh of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 4/1) 47 days ago. However, he now drops in grade with tongue strap back on.

40/1

Won twice at Brighton last summer and held his form well for the remainder of the year, fifth of 14 in handicap at the same course (7f, good to firm, 5/1) when last seen in October. Still capable if ready to go after a break.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Rob Hornby| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 63| D

4/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2025 but arrives in decent heart, third of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on his latest outing 4 days ago. Could be in the mix from 3 lb below last winning mark.

Dandy Khan⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: H Crouch| T: J R Boyle| OR: 62| CD

3/1

Recorded hat-trick here in November/December, including over this distance, and quickly resumed winning ways back at this venue when landing 9-runner handicap (7f, 13/8) a week ago. Major player in her current form.

Amber Honey^b¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Harry Davies| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 60| D

8/1

Doubled her tally at Southwell in November and shaped as if back in form when fourth of 8 in handicap (11/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 11 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Not ruled out back down in grade.

Three On Thursday¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: N Callan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 60| C

17/2

Off the mark at this course (10f) on penultimate start and again ran well when second of 10 in handicap (7/2) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 2 weeks ago. Must now carry on her recent form back over this shorter trip.

Form: 253512-

Stacey Racey¹²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Kieran Burke| OR: 49

20/1

Didn't manage to win last year but ended the campaign with some creditable efforts, 2 lengths fifth of 10 in handicap at this course (7f, 11/2) on final outing in September. Has eased further in the weights if returning in the same form.

Forecasts

Francesi (3/1), Dandy Khan (3/1), Super Hit (4/1), Amber Honey (8/1), Three On Thursday (17/2), City Of York (9/1), Reddeef (10/1), Stacey Racey (20/1), Poetic Force (40/1)

DANDY KHAN has been thriving of late, making it 4 wins at this course from her last 5 starts when scoring last week, and she is taken to add to her tally. Francesi also arrives in good form and is feared most as he drops back down in grade, with Super Hit completing the shortlist.
