Pride Of Donegal^v⁶^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Johnston| OR: 84| D

2/1

Progressive all-weather performer readily landed a double at Wolverhampton 6 days ago and with nothing in his pedigree to suggest turf will be an issue, he merits plenty of respect bidding for hat-trick under 5-lb penalty.

Form: 2-44311

Asmen Warrior^p¹⁷⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: James Owen| OR: 88| BF

11/8

Runner-up 3 of 4 starts since joining excellent new yard, latterly in a useful handicap at Kempton last October, and this looks a good opportunity to notch a first handicap success.

Roarin' Success⁴⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 83WS

18/1

Fairly useful before losing her form for Harry Charlon. Has undergone a breathing operation since modest fourth on qualifying run over hurdles in late-February and returns to Flat with a bit to prove.

In The Breeze¹⁴¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Miss H C Knight| OR: 81| D

6/1

Fairly useful stayer for Mick Appleby but he's been off since finishing well held on final start for that yard in November and is entitled to need the run on stable debut.

Form: 501447-

Gibside¹⁵⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 81| D

11/2

Capitalised on a falling mark at Catterick (soft) but was found wanting for pace back on the all-weather at Newcastle in November. Did run well on seasonal reappearance last season, though.

Form: 787615-

ASMEN WARRIOR was knocking on the door for James Owen last season and is fancied to make a winning return. Hat-trick seeking Pride Of Donegal looks the danger on turf debut.
