Sonic Si¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Matthew Slater⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 60

33/1

Made only one appearance in 2025 and shaped as if better for the run on first outing since leaving David Loughnane after 13 months off when seventh of 10 in handicap at this C&D (25/1) 10 days ago. Should reveal more this time.

Form: 2565/7-7

On Key⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Mikkel Mortensen⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 60

40/1

Yet to win in 11 starts and joined present trainer from Julie Camacho before finishing last of 12 in handicap at this C&D (40/1) back in November, possibly needing that run. Handicapper eases his grip but hard to fancy.

Form: 246570-

Beauzon^p⁶^{(ex 8)}

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: Ryan Kavanagh⁽⁵⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 52| CD

11/10

Completed a 4-timer readily in 12-runner handicap at Lingfield 6f (5/6) 6 days ago, scoring with plenty in hand under a penalty. Ought to prove tough to beat under a double penalty provided he continues to take his racing well.

Form: 0-31111

Dark Sun⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Laura Coughlan⁽³⁾| T: J Bennett| OR: 59

22/1

Remains a maiden, going close when second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10/1) 30 days ago. Never managed to get into it after a sluggish start back there 6 days ago so needs to bounce back quickly.

Form: 467-620

(4)

He's An Angel²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Oliver Stammers| T: K Frost| OR: 58| CD

7/2

Got the gaps when needed and prevailed late on in 9-runner handicap at this C&D (3/1) 3 weeks ago. Fancied to remain competitive on the back of a 3 lb rise.

Form: 0/493-51

(8)

Sioux Warrior⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Taryn Langley⁽⁵⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 58

10/1

Had back-to-back thirds at this C&D in October but has disappointed since, fifth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) last month. Mark continues to fall but needs to show more.

Form: 83307-5

Ardaddy¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: C J Whiteley⁽⁷⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 57

3/1

Put back-to-back good efforts together for the first time in his career when third of 9 in 7f handicap at Newcastle (11/1) 16 days ago. First run for new trainer today (8,000 gns) and needs monitoring in the betting.

Form: 375-723

(6)

Havana Club¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Donagh Murphy⁽⁷⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 56| C

22/1

Won at this track over 7f (7/1) 11 weeks ago and has had excuses in 3 subsequent outings, shuffled back after 1f and unseated rider here earlier in the month. Others more appealing for win purposes, however.

Form: 43159-U

Forecasts

Beauzon (11/10), Ardaddy (3/1), He's An Angel (7/2), Sioux Warrior (10/1), Dark Sun (22/1), Havana Club (22/1), Sonic Si (33/1), On Key (40/1)

BEAUZON made short work of a penalty when completing a 4-timer at Lingfield and he'll continue to be tough to beat until the handicapper gets a full swipe at him. He's An Angel got the gaps when needed to prevail late on over C&D 3 weeks ago so he heads up the opposition, with Ardaddy worth keeping an eye on having joined the excellent Mick Appleby yard.
