Hibernate¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Mason Paetel⁽⁵⁾| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 60

7/4

Returned to his best when second of 5 in a handicap at Leicester (1½m) 17 days ago over. Drops back in trip with claimer back on board and he won on his last outing in 0-60 company so looks set to go well.

Form: 2448-72

Merapi¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Loughnane| T: Michael Keady| OR: 59

7/4

Best effort since leaving Ed Walker when second of 14 in a handicap here 19 days ago, going as close as she ever has to breaking her duck. Has Billy Loughnane back on board for this step up in trip and she should once more be in the mix.

Form: 640-752

Twilight Guest^p¹⁰⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: D Egan| T: G G Margarson| OR: 54

18/1

Rattled off a hat-trick in 1¼m handicaps in June but has been out of sorts since, most recently when fifth of 5 at Chelmsford in January. Absent since and looks hard to fancy.

Form: 14773-5

Shielas Well^p1³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Ian Williams| OR: 51| BF

85/40

Better for stable debut when fourth of 10 at Southwell 33 days ago and possible she will prove suited by first-time cheekpieces given she hasn't always looked straightforward. Place claims back down in trip.

Form: 380-484

Duke Orsino⁵⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Oliver Carmichael⁽⁷⁾| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 45

100/1

Winless in 11 starts and offered little on first crack at sprinting at Kempton last month. Now steps up significantly in trip with cheekpieces removed and plenty more required.

Form: 6770-90

Forecasts

Hibernate (7/4), Merapi (7/4), Shielas Well (85/40), Dash Power (13/2), Prince Hector (10/1), Twilight Guest (18/1), Duke Orsino (100/1)

HIBERNATE returned to his best when second at Leicester 17 days ago and shouldn't be inconvenienced by the drop back in trip, so looks the one to beat here. Merapi and Shielas Well aren't long with new yards and could give him most to think about.
