Bitacora³⁰³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Hart| T: D Bourke| OR: 50

9/1

Dropped into this grade when justifying support on third start for this yard at Wolverhampton a year ago. Seemed stretched by longer trip at the same course next time but now has 10-month absence to overcome.

Form: 58/9818-

Brother Dave¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 50| C

13/2

All 3 career wins over 7f at this course, latest success coming in similar event in January. Has made the frame in 3 handicaps since, third of 9 here 15 days ago, and looks worth another try at this trip. Major player back down in grade.

Form: 96-1243

Clipsham Noble¹¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Liam Wright⁽⁵⁾| T: Charlie Clover| OR: 45| D

13/2

Sole victory came in 1m handicap at Brighton last summer. Ended the year on a low-key note but he's worth a market check dropped in grade on stable debut with headgear removed.

Dequinto²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Myla Coppins⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 50| D

14/1

Finally off the mark in similar event at Newcastle under this rider last month. Has had excuses in handicaps over the same C&D last 2 starts, very slowly away when last of 5 on latest outing, so no surprise to see him bounce back.

Form: 749145

Elettaria¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Wainwright| OR: 48

33/1

All 4 victories over 7f, winning twice in this grade at Newcastle last year. After 9 weeks off, below-par effort when sixth of 12 here 16 days ago, though she had been in decent heart prior to that.

Form: 4743-66

Miss Helena⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Faye McManoman| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 32

300/1

Tailed off both starts in bumpers and hasn't gone with much promise in this sphere, doing too much too soon when fourth of 6 in similar event at Newcastle 6 weeks ago. Headgear worn last time now removed.

Form: 0-884

Pop Favorite^b¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 45| D

25/1

Without a win in 13 runs and continues to be held back by his slow-starting ways, making little impression when fourth of 8 in similar event over C&D 12 days ago.

Form: 5-67544

Saved Lizzie⁴³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: S D Bowen| T: J Butler| OR: 44

20/1

Long-standing maiden and no better than mid-field in 4 starts for Darryll Holland, sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (7f) last month. Back down in grade, though, and the market could be informative on stable debut.

Form: 3306-56

(9)

Sir Maxi^v¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: K S McHugh⁽⁷⁾| T: S England| OR: 48

18/1

Without a win in 21 starts but ran creditably after just 2 days off when third of 8 in similar event over C&D 12 days ago. Needs things to drop right given his usual hold-up style, though.

Form: 283463

Sold Out¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Loughnane| T: J Mackie| OR: 48| D

9/4

Seen to advantage when making all in similar event at Newcastle last month and not disgraced in handicaps next 2 starts. However, was below form back in this grade at Wolverhampton 10 days ago.

Form: 541445

Spirit Of Bowland⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: T Culhane & S Barclay| OR: 48| CD

5/2

Dual C&D winner who ran better than of late in first-time blinkers when ¾-length fifth of 11 in similar event at Newcastle (7f) a week ago. Last 3 wins have come with this rider on board and he can remain competitive returned to this venue.

Form: 4-33535

Forecasts

Sold Out (9/4), Spirit Of Bowland (5/2), Chourmo (6/1), Brother Dave (13/2), Clipsham Noble (13/2), Bitacora (9/1), Dequinto (14/1), Sir Maxi (18/1), Saved Lizzie (20/1), Pop Favorite (25/1), Elettaria (33/1), Miss Helena (300/1)

BROTHER DAVE has continued in good heart since winning here in January and he is taken to land a fourth course success returned to this grade. He can see off the challenge of Dequinto, who hasn't been seen to best effect on his last 2 outings, with Spirit of Bowland completing the shortlist.
