Pallas Lord^t⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Hart| T: D W Whillans| OR: 60

9/1

Latest win at Newcastle in February. 11/1, last of 11 in handicap at the same course (7.1f) 5 days ago. Back up in trip and it's likely that he'll come up short once more.

Form: 324510

Havana Touch⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: S D Bowen| T: J Butler| OR: 60

14/1

40/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (1m) 45 days ago and this 5-y-o looks set for another struggle.

Form: 1679-89

(11)

King Of Speed^t³²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 60| CD

6/1

Four-time C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Sixth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (6/1) 32 days ago. Looks vulnerable.

Form: 5751-36

(2)

Masqool^v1¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: D C Costello| T: A W Carroll| OR: 59| CD

9/1

C&D winner. Creditable 1½ lengths second of 5 to Eutropia in handicap at Lingfield (1¼m) 12 days ago, no match for winner. Shouldn't be far away if the first-time visor has the desired effect. One of 4 runners for the Tony Carroll yard.

Form: 558-442

(8)

Phaedra⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Joey Ramsden| OR: 59

8/1

Three wins from 10 runs last year. First run since leaving Richard Hannon when very good second of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 28/1) 7 days ago. Looks competitive on form.

Form: 7500-02

(10)

Merapi¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Darragh Keenan| T: Michael Keady| OR: 59

28/1

First run since leaving Ed Walker when last of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (7f) 17 days ago. Up in trip and she needs to get back on track.

Form: 54640-7

(6)

Amber Honey^b¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Cieren Fallon| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 58| CD

8/1

C&D winner. 11/1, creditable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago and it would be no surprise to see this filly in the shake-up once again.

Form: 474-673

(5)

Galaxy Wonder¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 58| BF| CD

5/2

Course winner. Latest win here in December. 2/1, 1½ lengths third of 5 to Eutropia in handicap at Lingfield (1¼m) 12 days ago. Place possibilities.

Form: 31-4323

(9)

Danehill Star^b¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: A W Carroll| OR: 57| BF| CD

14/1

Course winner. Four wins from 15 runs last year. Blinkered for 1st time, creditable second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (1m) 12 days ago, doing too much too soon. Another bold show likely.

Form: 0-39152

(3)

Eutropia¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Finley Marsh| T: A Wintle| OR: 56

8/1

Improved on recent efforts to win 5-runner handicap (5/2) at Lingfield (1¼m) 12 days ago by 1½ lengths from Masqool, well on top finish. Can make presence felt.

Form: 65-3331

(1)

Knightmare^v³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Laura Coughlan⁽³⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 56

22/1

Visored for 1st time, respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at this course (7.2f, 17/2) 36 days ago. Up in trip and he's not without each-way hope.

Form: 064-274

(12)

River Wharfe^b⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Myla Coppins⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 54| BF| CD

5/1

C&D winner who improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 6 days ago. Escapes a penalty and step back up in trip won't hurt, so his claims are pretty compelling.

Form: 582371

Forecasts

Eutropia (10/3), Masqool (6/1), Galaxy Wonder (6/1), River Wharfe (7/1), Amber Honey (7/1), Phaedra (7/1), Danehill Star (8/1), Knightmare (12/1), King Of Speed (12/1), Pallas Lord (14/1), Merapi (66/1), Havana Touch (66/1)

All 4 of the Tony Carroll-trained runners can be given a chance but it's RIVER WHARFE who brings the most solid credentials to the table. Indeed, the 8-y-o escapes a penalty for last week's decisive Southwell success under this rider and he's a 3-time winner round here. Phaedra returned to form when runner-up last time and she is feared, along with recent Lingfield scorer Eutropia.
