Dragon God⁸⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: A W Carroll| OR: 64

40/1

Has joined prolific all-weather yard but he didn't look the most straightforward in 4 starts for Charlie Hills.

Form: 8/460-

(3)

Twilight Madness^p⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: S Hodgson| OR: 64| CD

Rory Rocket¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Queally| T: G & J Moore| OR: 64

(11)

Big Bard^p³³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: Paddy Bradley| T: G & J Moore| OR: 62| CD

22/1

Inconsistent sort returned to form from out of the blue to win over C&D in January but circumstances unlikely to be as favourable from wide draw in a better race, and Tom Queally partners his stablemate.

Form: 14067-1

(8)

Bang On The Bell³²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 62| D

16/1

Supported (having fallen below latest winning mark) but never landed a blow after a slow start at Lingfield in January and now makes rare start over 6f.

Form: 4867-87

(1)

Early Release²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Billy Loughnane| T: P D Evans| OR: 62| CD

7/2

Out of form since making all over C&D in September but has plum draw and may bounce back with Billy Loughnane in the saddle.

(7)

Sub Thirteen⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: J Scott| OR: 62| D

9/1

Ran respectably on final start for Tony Carroll when fourth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (18/1) in January and should remain competitive for new connections.

Beelzebub^e/c1,t⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Rowan Scott| T: D Loughnane| OR: 60| BF| D

17/2

Form: 5388-76

(5)

Rye⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Charles Bishop| T: A W Carroll| OR: 60

5/1

Maiden finished runner-up in pair of 6f handicaps at Wolverhampton last year and makes some appeal off a career-low mark, having run well following a break previously.

Form: 652256-

Charging Bull^h1³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Darragh Keenan| T: Michael Keady| OR: 59

(4)

Drafted⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Lillie Dingle⁽⁷⁾| T: Charlie Pike| OR: 56

13/2

Encouraging stable debut when third of 9 in a 7f handicap at Chelmsford (12/1) 9 days ago but yet to prove he's a sprinter.

Form: 75214-3

Forecasts

Twilight Madness (3/1), Early Release (7/2), Rye (5/1), Drafted (13/2), Andalprofit (8/1), Beelzebub (17/2), Sub Thirteen (9/1), Rory Rocket (9/1), Bang On The Bell (16/1), Big Bard (22/1), Dragon God (40/1), Charging Bull (50/1)

A market to keep a close eye on but RYE looks to have solid-enough claims returning from a break, and she gets a tentative vote in a tricky handicap. C&D winner Early Release is well drawn to bounce back but may not get it all his own way in front.
