14/1

Sole success came in August and returned to form when third of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (5/1) on most recent outing, settling better than usual back at 6f. Not sure to be as effective back at this trip, however.

Rawson²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 60

22/1

Ran below the form shown on his first 2 outings when seventh of 11 in maiden at Southwell (28/1) 24 days ago. Into handicaps now and improvement required.

Form: 3-77

Al Najashi^t⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: S Donohoe| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 59

4/11

Progressing in leaps and bounds, making it 2 from 2 in handicaps in 5-runner event at Lingfield (1/2) 6 days ago, quickening clear in final 1f despite racing wide. Runs off unchanged mark and looks capable of completing hat-trick with step up to 7f expected to suit.

Form: 044-11

South Coast Star⁷²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Cieren Fallon| T: H Palmer| OR: 59

12/1

Lightly raced filly who was very green on first two starts but showed more when fourth of 10 in novice at Kempton (40/1) on most recent outing in December. Pedigree an on-going recommendation now switching to handicap company.

100/1

Showed nothing on qualifying run when last of 6 in novice at Southwell (66/1) 14 days ago. Step up in trip needs to bring about improvement on handicap debut.

Form: 7-66

10/1

Tafah⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: William Carson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 58

5/1

Has improved with each run for new yard, suited by increase in trip when second of 11 in C&D handicap (9/1) latest. Looks up to defying current mark.

Form: 377-442

Karisma's Angel²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: H Crouch| T: E Walker| OR: 57

22/1

Handed a stiff opening mark and offered little when sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (22/1) 23 days ago. Has plenty to find.

Form: 060-6

Forecasts

Al Najashi (4/11), Tafah (5/1), Ar Diddy Dum Dum (8/1), Black Tango (10/1), South Coast Star (12/1), Houdini Miss (14/1), Karisma's Angel (22/1), Rawson (22/1), Sirhana (100/1)

AL NAJASHI is proving most progressive and off an unchanged mark, he's selected to complete his hat-trick upped to a trip that promises to suit. Tafah has improved with each run for his new yard and looks the main danger ahead of Ar Diddy Dum Dum.
