(5)

A Lady Forever^v1⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: George Wood| T: W G Harrison| OR: 43| C

12/1

Failed to come on for recent run when well held in C&D classified stakes last week and the addition of headgear hasn't had the desired effect when previously tried.

Form: 2954-57

(4)

Auntie Jo^v1¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Mark Winn| T: D O'Meara| OR: 45

9/1

Maiden who ran respectably in pair of classified stakes over 6f at this track last month (not seen to best effect in handicap latest) but likely booked for minor honours again.

Form: 455556

(7)

Blue Dandy⁴⁷⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Rowan Scott| T: W G Harrison| OR: 46

80/1

Cheap purchase by new connections having shown little in trio of starts for James Tate at the end of 2024.

Form: 676/

(9)

Captain Kinsella⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: J Gallagher| OR: 48| CD

7/2

On a long losing run but didn't get home over 5f last time and should fare better dropped in trip/class.

Form: 6-58677

(2)

Desert Master^v⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 46| CD

5/1

Hasn't won in 21 runs, but he has hit the frame on previous two starts in classified company, latterly over C&D 6 days ago.

Form: 2-58524

(3)

Kipp Kelly¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Faye McManoman| T: D Shaw| OR: 50| D

9/2

Belatedly off the mark in a 5f classified stakes at Wolverhampton last month but found things tougher in a handicap at Southwell latest. This looks more realistic.

Form: 2-57318

(1)

Sir Benedict¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 47| BF| D

4/1

Caught the eye when sixth of 8 in a classified stakes at Southwell last time (not clear run and allowed to coast home) and looks well worth another chance starting out for new yard.

Form: 26-6486

(8)

Stroxx^p⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Garritty| T: L Bailey| OR: 45| CD

10/1

Third in a similar C&D race in January but below form both starts since.

Form: 0-00376

(6)

Wee Mary¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 50| CD

8/1

Capitalised on a drop into classified company over C&D in January but hasn't been in same form in handicaps, and she again goes without usual hood.

Form: 7-44187

Forecasts

Captain Kinsella (7/2), Sir Benedict (4/1), Kipp Kelly (9/2), Desert Master (5/1), Wee Mary (8/1), Auntie Jo (9/1), Stroxx (10/1), A Lady Forever (12/1), Blue Dandy (80/1)

SIR BENEDICT should have finished much closer at Southwell last time and looks worth another chance. Captain Kinsella rates the main danger dropped into this grade for the first time.
