Helm Rock^b,t⁸^{(ex 4)}

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: Alec Voikhansky| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 80| D

9/4

Back to winning ways when seeing off Mr Baloo by ½ length at Kempton (1m) under Alec Voikhansky last Monday. Thereabouts under a 4 lb penalty if showing up in similar form.

Form: 810-621

Mr Baloo^p1⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Joe Leavy| T: R Hannon| OR: 79| D

9/2

Four all-weather wins last February/March and ran his most encouraging race this year when ½-length second of 9 to reopposing Helm Rock at Kempton (1m) 8 days ago. Well treated if he can build on that in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 76-6482

Epictetus¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Saffie Osborne| T: J A Osborne| OR: 79| D

9/2

On a long losing run and never seriously threatened for win purposes when fourth of 15 at Doncaster (7f, good) 16 days ago.

Form: 730324

Arctician²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: Paddy Bradley| T: S Dow| OR: 79| CD

13/2

Resumed winning ways at Kempton (7f) in November and this former C&D scorer resumed with a good third of 10 here last month. One for the shortlist.

Form: 92914-3

Big Sip¹⁷⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Jack Gilligan| T: M Botti| OR: 78| CD

6/1

C&D maiden winner on last year's reappearance. Ended last season with a success in selling company at Wolverhampton (9.5f). Evidently capable when fresh and this is the lowest mark he's ever run off in a handicap.

Form: 762681-

Warning Sign^p²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Callum Shepherd| T: G & J Moore| OR: 77| D

50/1

In excellent form when fitted with blinkers last summer, winning a pair of amateur rider events at Sandown under owner David Dunsdon. Off 6 months, well beaten on C&D reappearance 25 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot.

Form: 21123-9

(8)

Panama Black^p²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: Mrs L J Mongan| OR: 75| D

25/1

Respectable efforts in defeat on 3 of his 4 outings this year. First run for yard after leaving Brian Meehan. Likely to be competitive again.

Form: 68-4534

(9)

Newfangled^p¹⁸²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 75| CD

10/1

Successful 3 times last year, including over C&D. Ran well to be placed on last season's reappearance. Each-way claims.

Form: 263917-

Good Speed²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: G & J Moore| OR: 74| D

40/1

A fairly useful winner (around 1m) in France for Mathieu Pitart but down the field on all 3 outings for current yard. Could only consider if backed.

Form: 372-090

(12)

Criminal¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 72

9/1

Plenty of promise last year but yet to fire since returning from a break, including never a threat after a slow start at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 15 days ago.

Form: 233-790

(5)

Elouise's Prince^h⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Jude Fernandes⁽⁷⁾| T: L A Dace| OR: 71| CD

25/1

C&D winner in February. Creditable fourth back here next time but last of 11 at Kempton since. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Helm Rock (9/4), Mr Baloo (9/2), Epictetus (9/2), Big Sip (6/1), Arctician (13/2), Criminal (9/1), Newfangled (10/1), Bravo Zulu (12/1), Panama Black (25/1), Elouise's Prince (25/1), Good Speed (40/1), Warning Sign (50/1)

MR BALOO is given a chance to build on last week's back-to-form second behind Helm Rock at Kempton and resume winning ways. The Kublers' charge should be very competitive again but it could be that the chief threat comes from Arctician and Big Sip.
