Master Of My Fate²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 84| CD

9/4

Quickly returned to form to win 11-runner handicap over C&D 22 days ago, by ½ length from Sports Coach, having always been well positioned. Seems a straightforward type and should remain competitive.

Form: 78-4261

The Bell Conductor⁵³

Age: 9| Weight: 9-5| J: Barry McHugh| T: I Furtado| OR: 81| CD

11/1

One-time useful handicapper who has finished down the field last 4 starts, though probably needed run after 4 months off (had breathing operation in interim) at Newcastle on latest outing.

Form: 06500-6

Reigning Profit¹⁴⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 79| D

14/1

A 3-time winner in 2025 who had a hopeless task from his position (raced very wide) at Pontefract on final outing in October. Reappears on a handy enough mark but record suggests he may just need the outing.

Form: 715878-

Sports Coach²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 79| D

9/4

Has yet to win for current yard but ran well back from 6 months off when ½-length second of 11 to reopposing Master of My Fate in handicap over C&D 22 days ago, doing well having been forced to switch final 1f. Has to be shortlisted.

Form: 50503-2

Sam's Hope^t²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: O J Orr| T: Martin Dunne| OR: 77| CD

7/1

3-time C&D winner who again wasn't seen to best effect when 3 lengths ninth of 11 to reopposing Master of My Fate in handicap over C&D (15/2) on most recent outing, keeping on when short of room final 100 yds (not recover). Remains of interest.

Form: 55-1159

Ay Gee Ell^v,t³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Billy Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 73| CD

3/1

C&D winner who backed up previous effort with a tongue strap reapplied when third in 9-runner handicap over C&D (3/1) last month. Should remain competitive.

Form: 5614-33

Forecasts

Sports Coach (9/4), Master Of My Fate (9/4), Ay Gee Ell (3/1), Michaela's Boy (7/2), Sam's Hope (7/1), The Bell Conductor (11/1), Reigning Profit (14/1)

SPORTS COACH would have at least pushed Master of My Fate closer had he not been forced to angle around that one to make his bid on his latest start over C&D, so he's well worth the chance to reverse the form with that rival on these more favourable terms and register a first win for his current yard. Michaela's Boy appeals as the type to bounce back quickly from a below-par display back down in grade, with Sam's Hope also feared having not been seen to best effect in the aforementioned race.
