14/1

Capped a consistent run of form when runner-up in a valuable handicap for the grade here (1¼m) last summer and likely to have needed comeback run over 7f at Thirsk 19 days ago. Better expected now.

Great Blasket^b¹⁰¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Saffie Osborne| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 72| D

17/2

Out of form on the all-weather this winter but on a handy mark on his return to turf (won twice off higher marks on turf last summer). Could be worth chancing.

Symphony Of Joy²⁰⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan| T: K Frost| OR: 72

5/1

Son of Ulysses who made a promising start when fourth of 12 at Leicester in July nearest finish. Unable to build on that in 2 runs in the autumn but remains with potential heading into handicaps.

Dutch Kingdom^t¹⁸⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle| OR: 70| D

10/1

Useful on all-weather at best for Darryll Holland but lost his way and no encouragement starting out for this yard at Kempton in November.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: J Mitchell| T: R A Teal| OR: 68

Risen Again³²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: William Carson| T: J L Flint| OR: 66

Crimson Road³²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: Nicola Currie| T: J L Flint| OR: 62

Under The Sun⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: Jude Fernandes⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 62| D

28/1

Failed to beat a rival on first 3 all-weather starts but returned to form from out of the blue when running out an 80/1 winner at Lingfield in February. Proved that was no fluke when fourth there following month but more needed back on turf.

Forecasts

Zarathos (11/4), The Hare Rail (11/4), Norflondonforever (9/2), Kodi Fire (5/1), Symphony Of Joy (5/1), Great Blasket (17/2), Dutch Kingdom (10/1), Narmar (14/1), Under The Sun (28/1), Risen Again (40/1), Crimson Road (50/1), Canopus (66/1)

GREAT BLASKET hadn't been in much form on the all-weather this winter but returns to the turf well handicapped as a result. He could be worth chancing at the main expense of the reappearing Kodi Fire, who took his form to another level when completing the hat-trick over C&D last summer. Narmar did well last season and is expected to leave his comeback behind returned to a suitable trip.
