Perfect Part¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 87

11/2

Useful handicapper looked suited by the step up to 1m when fourth in 22-runner Spring Mile at Doncaster last time and has to be on the shortlist with sights lowered.

Form: 44070-4

Bellarchi⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-4| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 87| C| D

9/2

Made it 3 wins from her previous 4 starts here when successful in Class 2 handicap last week. Step back up to 1m no issue and drops in class despite a 4 lb rise.

Form: 1088-81

Jannas Journey⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Cam Hardie| T: J S Goldie| OR: 83| C| D

28/1

Winner of 7 races in a remarkable 2-month spell last season (including at this track), and having likely needed her reappearance behind Bellarchi here, should fare better back in calmer waters.

Form: 13629-0

Callianassa⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Connor Beasley| T: B Ellison| OR: 83| D

7/1

Shaped as if ready for this step back up in trip when fifth in Fillies' and Mares' handicap on Finals Day at Newcastle last weekend, and while all her wins to date have come on the all-weather, she looks interesting tackling 1m on turf for the first time.

Form: 103-155

Asteverdi¹⁸⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Cieren Fallon| T: James Owen| OR: 78| C| D

5/1

Fairly useful sort didn't build on a promising reappearance/stable debut for Hugo Palmer last season (sold for 15,000 gns following poor run in October), though new yard's record with stable-switchers speaks for itself.

Form: 1/35450-

Epidavros¹⁹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Hart| T: K Scott| OR: 71| D

10/1

Hasn't won since 2024 but did go close in similar company last year and she looks worth another chance, having likely been feeling the effects of a busy season on latest start at Ayr in September.

Form: 425635-

Ice Sovereigns¹⁹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Johnston| OR: 85

17/2

Fairly useful juvenile landed Carlisle double in good style on nursery debut prior to finishing well held in Group 2 Rockfel at Newmarket in September. This looks much more realistic and should stay this longer trip, too.

Form: 43110-

Samra Green¹⁹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S H James| T: K R Burke| OR: 84

4/1

Saxon Warrior filly looked a good prospect when making a winning start in 7f maiden at Haydock but flying too high in the Rockfel at Newmarket in September. Handicapper hasn't taken any chances with her opening mark, for all she's unexposed upped to 1m on handicap debut.

Form: 17-

Geo¹⁷¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 69

33/1

Left the impression she should have finished even closer when fourth in fair fillies' handicap on all-weather debut in October. Since sold from Eve Johnson Houghton for 9,000 gns, and while upped in grade, has joined a very capable new yard.

Form: 095564-

Second Fiddle^t⁸⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: Cara Tuke⁽⁷⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 69| D

33/1

Won 6 of her first 7 starts for current yard (all at Newcastle) but struggled in higher grades both starts there in January and may need further respite from the handicapper to make an impact on turf.

Form: 1131-70

Dunkeld Dreamer¹⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: K R Burke| OR: 77| D

17/2

Three-time winner underlined her consistency when second (no match for lightly-raced rival) in 6-runner nursery at Newmarket in November, and she's entitled to be in the mix again.

Forecasts

Samra Green (4/1), Bellarchi (9/2), Asteverdi (5/1), Perfect Part (11/2), Applesandpears (6/1), Callianassa (7/1), Dunkeld Dreamer (17/2), Ice Sovereigns (17/2), Epidavros (10/1), Jannas Journey (28/1), Geo (33/1), Second Fiddle (33/1)

Stacks in with a chance but the vote goes to progressive APPLESANDPEARS, who has a good-value apprentice aboard, and may be able to land the hat-trick on handicap debut. Callianassa ran creditably in better company on the all-weather last time and makes appeal back over 1m, with Epidavros worth considering on the best of her form.
