Low-mileage 8-y-o who ran poorly after 5 months off when sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (16.5f, 18/1) 33 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Reina Del Mar⁶²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Sean Kirrane| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 79

Had a wind op before being pulled up over hurdles at Doncaster (19.4f, soft) 62 days ago, never travelling well. Has a bit to prove on her tapeta debut now.

Military Cross^p1⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 77| BF

Son of Nathaniel who has been placed on all 6 starts, though he was too free in first-time blinkers when a below-par third of 12 in 12f Wolverhampton maiden last month. Cheekpieces go on for his handicap debut and can't be ruled out.

Form: 222223-

(3)

Aajej^b1³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: S D Bowen| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 77

Arrives in decent nick without winning, visored when fifth of 9 in 2m handicap here 33 days ago. Needs considering with blinkers added now.

Form: 320255-

Pleasant Man^v¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁵⁾| T: Joey Ramsden| OR: 74| CD

Took this 12 months ago and comes here on the back of a promising third of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 15 days ago when forced wide to challenge. Merits serious consideration eased 1 lb.

Form: 55954-3

(5)

Moon Sniper¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: P J McDonald| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 72

Got off the mark at Newcastle in October and comes here in very good order, headed near line when third of 6 in handicap at this course (12.1f) 17 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts.

Form: 18343-3

(4)

Trojan Soldier²⁰⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Billy Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 69| BF

In good nick without getting his head in front until only tenth of 11 in handicap at Ayr (13.1f, good to soft) 6 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running on his comeback.

Form: 70/6220-

Forecasts

Military Cross (6/4), Moon Sniper (7/2), Pleasant Man (5/1), Aajej (13/2), Don Simon (13/2), Trojan Soldier (7/1), Reina Del Mar (20/1), Traila (20/1)

A few with chances but PLEASANT MAN captured this prize a year ago and looks primed for another bold showing after his eye-catching recent Chelmsford City third when not enjoying the rub of the green. Moon Sniper is feared most on the back of a good course third last time out with Aajej and Military Cross all in the mix too.
