Whitesnake²⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: R A Teal

125/1

Showed little on debut when fourth of 7 in a novice at Windsor in September. Off since and unlikely to make any appeal this side of handicaps.

Form: 4-

Distillation¹⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: William Carver| T: M D I Usher

150/1

Poor form when down field both starts to date. Gelded since last seen but is impossible to fancy on return from 161 days off.

Form: 60-

(5)

Noble Vow¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 75

9/4

Went the right way as a juvenile, including when second of 9 at Wolverhampton on all-weather in October. Shaped as if needing the run when fifth of 13 in a handicap at Bath 17 days ago and, with progress still in him, he holds strong claims back in maiden company.

Form: 3432-5

Ruiz^h²⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Paddy Bradley| T: S Dow

200/1

Yet to beat a rival and looked a poor mover here last time so is easily opposed.

Form: 09-

(10)

That's Random²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: K Shoemark| T: Harry Charlton

33/1

Well-bred gelding but looks like he's being brought along with handicaps in mind so isn't one to go overboard about despite Kieran Shoemark taking over from a claimer.

Form: 6-8

Thunder Call¹⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Cieren Fallon| T: W J Haggas

6/5

Left debut form well behind when second of 9 in a maiden at Doncaster in November. From a good family and is open to further improvement on return from 6 months off with stable in fine form so he's one to take seriously on all-weather debut.

Form: 02-

(9)

Tyrant Gg

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: M Botti

11/4

145,000 gns 2-y-o. Mehmas colt. Dam was a 5f winner and half-sister to useful 2-y-o 5f winner Good Vibes, so he's bred for speed. Market should guide.

Bundok¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: H Morrison

50/1

Ran green when last of 11 in a Newbury maiden over 7f (50/1) 17 days ago on debut. Switched to all-weather and down in trip here but needs to have learnt an awful lot from initial experience to make more impact.

Form: 0

Imagine That²²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Nicola Currie| T: H Candy

80/1

Not knocked about when seventh of 10 in a novice over C&D in September and that race has worked out pretty well so she may do better at some stage, but returns from 222 days off with a wide draw to contend with.

Form: 7-

(4)

Nzuri¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Rose Dawes⁽⁵⁾| T: J Channon

150/1

Offered little in maidens 8 months apart and looks set to struggle once more.

Form: 0-8

(2)

Speculative²⁸⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: David Probert| T: Tom Dascombe

9/1

Improved when fourth of 9 in a maiden at Newbury over 7f in July and a similar step forward could see her in the mix, though the betting may prove the best guide given she's returning from 284 days off and trying a new trip.

Form: 74-

Forecasts

Thunder Call (6/5), Noble Vow (9/4), Tyrant Gg (11/4), Speculative (9/1), That's Random (33/1), Bundok (50/1), Imagine That (80/1), Whitesnake (125/1), Nzuri (150/1), Distillation (150/1), Ruiz (200/1)

NOBLE VOW shaped as if needing the run when fifth in a Bath handicap 17 days ago after 6 months off and sets the standard so can make the most of this return to maiden company. Thunder Call left debut form well behind when second at Doncaster and, from a good family, is open to further improvement, while Speculative showed some promise back in July.
