Low-mileage 4-y-o who has made the frame on 3 of his 4 starts since switched to handicaps, including when fourth of 11 in first-time tongue strap (discarded here) over C&D last week.
|
Now 3 lb lower than when notching his fourth C&D success last spring but hasn't been at his best in 2 starts since the turn of the year.
|
Veteran who is seemingly going through the motions at present, again failing to make an impact in a C&D handicap last week.
|
Belied odds of 66/1 when winning a 13-runner 7f handicap on debut for this yard in December but finished nearer last than first back here the following month.
|
Sole success came in minor event over 7f at this course last summer. Has been knocking on the door in classified events here of late but this 6-y-o looks vulnerable back in a handicap.
|
Arrives here on a long losing run and was safely held on sole previous visit here/run on the all-weather in September.
|
Appeared to take a step forward on stable debut when second in 5-runner C&D handicap last month but no show at Wolverhampton next time and he's opposable.
|
Justified support on third start for this yard in a Wolverhampton classified event last spring but she didn't show much back from 10 months off at Southwell. Now tried in a visor.
|
Maiden who has found his level of late, going close in 7f classified race here last month and respectable fourth of 11 in a similar event at Wolverhampton next time. Place possibilities.
|
Twenty-race maiden who again performed with credit in a first-time visor (retained) in 7f classified race here last time. Should be on the premises.
|
Narrow winner at Carlisle last season and creditable third of 12 at Southwell (1m) in January. No show both starts since, though, and others make more appeal.
|
Little impact in 3 runs over sprint distances but one to note in the betting now upped in trip for this handicap debut with cheekpieces enlisted.
|
Three-time C&D winner who hasn't been at his best of late and it's probably best to look elsewhere.
|
Finally off the mark in handicap at Carlisle last summer but hasn't looked like adding to her tally since and she again looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Teggy Lasso (3/1), Starshot (9/2), Trais Fluors (13/2), Pebble Dash (15/2), Esque Elegance (17/2), Cloch Nua (11/1), Tainted Love (11/1), Take The A Train (12/1), Bitacora (16/1), Misemerald (20/1), Ridgemaster (20/1), Top Gun Tina (25/1), Wheres The Crumpet (28/1), Martin's Brig (40/1)
TAINTED LOVE appears to have been brought along with handicaps in mind and, now pitched into one for the first time off a lowly mark over what should prove to be a more suitable trip (his 3 runs to date have been over 5f/6f), he will be of strong interest if the market speaks in his favour. Teggy Lasso and Esque Elegance rate the main dangers.
