Denby's Dream¹⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Edward Greatrex| T: Charlie Pike| OR: 65

28/1

Kameko filly who made a promising start when third in an 11-runner Windsor novice (6f) back in July. Didn't progress in 2 starts thereafter on turf but switch to handicaps rates a plus now debuting for new yard and interesting if market vibes proved positive.

Off the mark on handicap debut over C&D in September for Richard Hughes. Creditable third next time but not in same form having changed yards/equipped with a tongue strap when last of 4 in nursery at Newcastle (7.1f) 63 days ago. Others preferred.

Alfa Duplicate¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J Mitchell| T: I Furtado| OR: 63

20/1

Kodiac filly who wasn't ideally placed after 7 months off (given breathing operation in the interim) when sixth of 9 on handicap debut at this course (6.1f) 11 days ago. Remains early days but she does need to take a step forward.

Form: 572-6

Marra Donna⁶⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 63

1/1

Cotai Glory gelding who offered definite promise on second of his 3 starts in novice company last year. However, he was again far too free on qualifying run at Lingfield in December and he'll need to settle better now attentions switch to handicaps. One to note in the betting.

Sup Of Red⁹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Taryn Langley⁽⁵⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 63

50/1

Creditable fifth of 14 in nursery at Dundalk (7f, 9/1), not ideally placed. Off 93 days. Makes tapeta debut. First run for yard after leaving Jack W. Davison but yard look to hold stronger claims with Luna Beaux.

Lion of Mali⁹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 61

13/2

Lightly-raced maiden who surpassed his previous exploits when finishing a very good second of 10 in nursery (5/2) at Newcastle (7.1f) in November. Gelded thereafter and it remains early days with him if draw doesn't prove too much of a hindrance.

Form: 5072-

Madman^t,v³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Alec Voikhansky| T: T Ward| OR: 61

6/1

Stepped up a little since sterner headgear was applied, equipped with a refitted visor when readily winning 11-runner handicap at Kempton (6f, 3/1) 30 days ago, leading last ½f. Possibilities returned to this longer trip.

Form: 35264-1

Tafah²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: William Carson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 58

9/1

Yet to win in 5 starts but he took a step forward from his yard debut effort when fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (6.1f, 12/1) 25 days ago, nearest finish. One to bear in mind on the back of that.

Form: 377-44

Luna Beaux¹⁰^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Finley Marsh| T: A Wintle| OR: 48| C

9/2

First run since leaving Miss Kate McGivern, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at this course (6.1f, 5/1) 10 days ago, not clear run. Carries penalty. Hard to beat with a repeat.

Forecasts

Marra Donna (1/1), Luna Beaux (9/2), Madman (6/1), Lion of Mali (13/2), Watchdog (7/1), Tafah (9/1), Pivotal Terms (18/1), Alfa Duplicate (20/1), Smartanck (25/1), Denby's Dream (28/1), Sup Of Red (50/1), Neat And Tidy (80/1)

LUNA BEAUX proved a different proposition starting out for present connections when a ready winner over 6f here 10 days ago and wisely turned out under a penalty, a repeat should see her tough to beat again. Fellow last-time-out scorer Madman is next on the list, with Tafah and Lion of Mali others commanding respect.
