Pressure's On¹³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: H Crouch| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 79| D

5/1

Sixteenth of 18 in handicap at Newbury (6f, heavy, 16/1) when last seen in October, left poorly placed. Only 2 lb above the mark off which he shared the spoils in a big-field York handicap last summer and will be a threat if on-song.

Brazilian Rose^h¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Kaiya Fraser| T: R Menzies| OR: 79| D

11/1

Three wins from 20 runs last year. Latest win at Southwell in February. Good fourth of 11 in handicap (18/1) at Lingfield (7f) 10 days ago. Place possibilities.

Champion Again Ole^h¹⁷⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Oisin Murphy| T: R Varian| OR: 77| D

7/4

16/5, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Kempton (7f) on latest start in September. 7 lb rise looks manageable (that race has worked out well) and he may have more to offer for his top yard.

Monsieur Kodi^p³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Warren Fentiman⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 77| D

9/1

Won 9-runner handicap at Lingfield (7f, 7/2) 30 days ago but this 4 lb higher mark may prove too much of an ask in this stronger race.

Form: 2332-31

(2)

Candonomore^t³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 77| D

7/2

Three wins from 13 runs last year. Latest win at Newcastle in September. Bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap (8/1) at the same course (1m) 31 days ago but dangerous to discount all the same off this 2 lb lower mark.

Form: 4125-37

(7)

Spirit Lead Me^h³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 74| CD

28/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in September. 40/1, last of 6 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 34 days ago. Back down in trip and he looks set for another struggle.

Form: 8114-96

Kit Gabriel¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: Tyler Heard| T: S Pearce| OR: 69| C| D

33/1

Course winner. Latest win at Kempton in October. Last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 28/1) 11 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 17-04U8

Beaming Light³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: William Pyle⁽³⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 66

5/1

Three wins from 12 runs last year. Good second of 10 in handicap at this course (8.6f, 13/2) 35 days ago. 2 lb nudge fair enough and he's a must for the shortlist.

Form: 3694-42

Forecasts

Champion Again Ole (7/4), Candonomore (7/2), Pressure's On (5/1), Beaming Light (5/1), Monsieur Kodi (9/1), Brazilian Rose (11/1), Spirit Lead Me (28/1), Kit Gabriel (33/1)

Having slipped to a workable mark, BEAMING LIGHT put in a good shift when going down narrowly to the in-form Mr Nugget over 8.6f here last time and he is taken to go one better back at this trip. Champion Again Ole still has low mileage and is greatly respected on the back of his breakthrough success at Kempton in September, which was his first start since being gelded. Pressure's On could also have a say if he puts his best foot forward.
