Midnite A Next Generation Betting App Handicap

(10)

Monty Beau^p1¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Jason Hart| T: H Palmer| OR: 75| CD

5/1

Lightly-raced winner. Successful here in December. 5/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 11 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Enters calculations.

Form: 2231-3

(1)

Eupator^b³^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 71| CD

7/4

6/5, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at this course (8.6f) 3 days ago, easily. Obvious claims turned out quickly under a penalty.

Form: 763-621

(6)

Great Blasket^b²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: L Morris| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 74| CD

66/1

Course winner. 25/1, last of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 26 days ago. Booking of Morris a plus but he's not particularly appealing otherwise.

Form: 630006-

(9)

Oman¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Watson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 72| CD

10/1

Reluctant individual. C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Creditable second of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 11 days ago, barely adequate test. One to consider.

Form: 09251-2

(2)

Tortured Soul¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 72| C

9/1

Course winner. Ten wins from 36 Flat runs, the latest at Southwell earlier this month. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 4/1) 16 days ago. Down in trip and looks vulnerable.

Form: 7361-15

(8)

Eagle Day⁶²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Loughnane| T: P D Evans| OR: 71| CD

3/1

Four-time course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2024. 11/1, last of 10 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 62 days ago. Others preferred.

Form: 058500-

(4)

Rhythm N Rock⁴⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: S D Bowen| T: J Butler| OR: 70| BF

16/1

Twenty three runs since last win in 2022. 13/8, excellent second of 12 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 40 days ago. Others make more appeal for win purposes.

Form: 809042-

(7)

Golspie⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: D Nolan| T: P Morris| OR: 68

15/2

Latest win at Newcastle in December. 10/3, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 6 days ago. Couldn't rule out.

Form: 5716-25

(5)

Moby Quick⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: P Cosgrave| T: P D Evans| OR: 69

40/1

Winner at Leicester in July. First run since leaving George Scott when 6½ lengths seventh of 9 to Monty Beau in handicap at this course (8.6f, 16/1) 42 days ago, slowly away. Opposable.

Form: 715297-

(3)

Starliner¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Kaiya Fraser| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 67| D

20/1

17/2, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 16 days ago and each-way claims off 1 lb lower here.

Form: 73677-3

Forecasts

Eupator (13/8), Rhythm N Rock (5/1), Monty Beau (13/2), Oman (8/1), Golspie (8/1), Tortured Soul (10/1), Starliner (12/1), Eagle Day (14/1), Moby Quick (20/1), Great Blasket (33/1)

This quick turnaround is unlikely to faze EUPATOR given that he barely broke sweat when scoring here on Friday and Richard Hannon's charge is taken to repeat the dose under a penalty. Low-mileage 5-y-o Monty Beau hasn't done a great deal wrong in his career to date and he will be a danger to all if the first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect. Oman is best of the rest, with Golspie and Starliner also shortlisted as plausible each-way candidates.
