Secret Road^v⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-12| J: P Cosgrave| T: James Owen| OR: 58| CD

1/1

In good form with two wins and two seconds from previous four runs. Finished second of 8 in conditions race at Southwell (2/1) 7 days ago, only giving best to another in-form sort. Visor back on (first time for this yard) and remains of plenty of interest in current mood.

Form: 9-21122

Mighty Ruler^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Kaiya Fraser| T: M J Attwater| OR: 58| CD

9/2

No impact at big odds before significant improvement when winning a 7-runner handicap over C&D (14/1) 12 days ago. Raced off the pace, made headway inside final furlong and quickened to lead at the line. Up 3lbs but could follow up if in same form here.

Form: 89095-1

So Chic³³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Liam Wright⁽⁵⁾| T: Stephanie Cassidy| OR: 55| CD

18/1

Four-time winner (twice at this course) who finished eighth of 12 in a handicap at this C&D (18/1) 33 days ago, making steady headway but possibly needing the run after 5 months off. More competitive showing likely now race-fit.

Rumba Bay⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Levey| T: P D Evans| OR: 53| D

8/1

Three-time winner who finished fourth of 8 in handicap over 6f at this course (16/1) 7 days ago, shaped better for the run after 3 months off. Back up in trip for this contest and remains below her last winning mark.

Form: 45668-4

Cuban Fiesta^t²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Jack Dace⁽⁵⁾| T: D P Quinn| OR: 51

11/2

Showed ability when second at Chelmsford last October but finished 10th of 11 in handicap (7/1) 21 days ago, best not judged on that run, paying price for trying to keep tabs on leaders. Visor removed and may be better over 1m.

Faster Bee^t¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Gina Mangan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 46

14/1

Maiden after 24 starts who finished 5th of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (25/1) 12 days ago, making steady headway but never landing a blow. Drops back in trip and needs significant improvement on recent form.

Form: 68480-5

Ashford Hill¹³³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Isobelle Chalmers⁽⁷⁾| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 45| CD

16/1

Seventh of 10 in handicap at Bath (13/2) last September, merely plugged on after not getting a clear run. Seemed to be in a lull end of last season but sole win did come fresh over this C&D (125/1).

Forecasts

Secret Road (1/1), Mighty Ruler (9/2), Cuban Fiesta (11/2), Rumba Bay (8/1), Faster Bee (14/1), Ashford Hill (16/1), Chloe's Courage (16/1), So Chic (18/1)

MIGHTY RULER showed marked improvement when winning over C&D 12 days ago, quickening to lead at the line and though up 3lbs, he could have more to offer. Secret Road continues in excellent form and looks interesting with his visor on for first time since joining James Owen. Chloe's Courage ran below par on Thursday but could bounce back at this track if turned out quickly.
