Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: O McSweeney| T: Ruth Jefferson| OR: 52| BF

11/1

Temperamental sort. Sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (12.5f, 15/2) 24 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. On a career-low mark so worth a second look in the betting.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: A Mullen| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 49| BF| C

Course winner in October. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap (2/1) at this course (12.5f) 24 days ago. Player if his stamina holds over this significantly longer trip.

Apache Eagle^p,t¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁵⁾| T: J Bedi| OR: 45

80/1

First worthwhile form on Flat since 2024 when 50/1-second at Chelmsford last month but no shock that she failed to back that up when last of 7 there since.

Form: 850-727

9/1

Very good second of 8 in handicap (13/2) at this course (12.5f) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Less exposed than most of these.

Form: 7077-72

(6)

Nakatomi^p1²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Barry McHugh| T: A D Brown| OR: 45

28/1

Maiden. Creditable sixth of 10 in handicap (22/1) at Wolverhampton 22 days ago. First-time cheekpieces replace blinkers.

Forecasts

Edwardtheninth (9/4), Colinski (4/1), Billy Bathgate (5/1), Free Pic (5/1), Angelardo (9/1), Lillistar (9/1), Achnamara (11/1), Nakatomi (28/1), Star Of Markinch (50/1), Apache Eagle (80/1)

COLINSKI is unexposed as a stayer and it might be worth taking a chance that new trainer Rebecca Menzies has him fully primed after a break. Billy Bathgate is well capable at this level, while Free Pic could also play a prominent role if lasting home over this much longer trip.
