3/1

16/5 and blinkered for 1st time, won 14-runner handicap at this course (10.7f) 24 days ago, always holding on. Isn't totally straightforward but he can remain competitive at this level.

Ethelwulf⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Mel Sheridan⁽¹⁰⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 64

66/1

First run since leaving John & Thady Gosden when eighth of 12 in claimer at this course (7f, 80/1) 7 days ago, inadequate test. Significantly back up in trip and this should be a better guide.

Form: 06626-8

Captain Hanley^p1,t²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁷⁾| T: E O'Connell| OR: 54

Forecasts

Captain Hanley (3/1), Thompson Gunner (3/1), Satono Chevalier (10/3), Drucker (4/1), Church Mountain (6/1), Pepper Noir (12/1), Riyami (25/1), Young Churchill (25/1), Glamorous Marlene (50/1), Urban War (66/1), Ethelwulf (66/1), Stonking (125/1)

SATONO CHEVALIER made a pleasing start for his new yard when second over C&D a fortnight ago and on that evidence, he can cash in on his handy mark. Drucker and Thompson Gunner are a couple of potential threats, while Ethelwulf requires a market check.
