Shafdar32
Age: 4|  Weight: 9-9| J: Edward Greatrex| T: Ian Williams| OR:  80| CD
Promising start for new connections since coming from France, building on Kempton third when easily landing the odds in a C&D maiden. Could be plenty more to come and he's the one to beat on handicap debut.

Winner at Wolverhampton in January. First run since leaving Jane Chapple-Hyam when eleventh of 12 in handicap (33/1) at Southwell (71f) 20 days ago. The stable's other runners make more obvious appeal.

Latest win at Newcastle in November. 9/2, good third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (1m) 16 days ago. Ought to be on the premises again.

Tonal41

Four AW wins since October, including twice over C&D. Respectable third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (1m, 11/10) 41 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Likely to give another good account.

4/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 64 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Julie Camacho. Others are more persuasive.

Forecasts

Shafdar (7/4), Tonal (7/2), Studious (4/1), Oceans Five (5/1), Triggerman (14/1), Echalar (16/1), Desert Heart (16/1), Bubbles Wonky (33/1)

Verdict

SHAFDAR bolted up in a C&D maiden last time and can take the next step up the ladder in his stride. Studious and the selection's stablemate Tonal may battle it out for the minor honours.
