Life After Love²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Egan| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 68| D

7/1

Made it 3 wins from her last 3 visits to Southwell last month, again showing a good attitude. Slow starts away from that venue a potential concern now she makes her first outing on turf but she can clearly be a force if breaking on terms.

Form: 812411

Bessie Wallis¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Levey| T: D Menuisier| OR: 68| D

12/1

Won 5f novice on the polytrack here in October but struggled in handicaps next 2 starts 5 months apart and her mark still looks on the high side now switched to turf.

Form: 8516-5

Solar Invincible^p²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Owen Lewis⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 66| D

17/2

Returned to winning ways at Bath at the start of last month but not in the same form there 3 weeks ago and needs to get back on track.

Form: 21-3415

Viking Glory^h1,t¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: William Carson| T: James Owen| OR: 66

12/1

Fair form in maiden/novice events between 6f and 1m for Adrian Keatley. On the back foot from the start on debut for James Owen at Windsor a fortnight ago but no surprise to see him fare much better here fitted with a hood.

Form: 425-30

Red Snapper^p¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Laura Coughlan⁽³⁾| T: Kathy Turner| OR: 65| D

6/4

On the up since the cheekpieces went on, scoring at Bath in October while he run a good race in a big-field 6f handicap at Ascot last time. This test will probably be too sharp for him, however.

Form: 5521-26

(7)

Yes Waliim¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Oliver Hoodless⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hughes| OR: 64| BF

18/1

Again strong in the market on handicap debut/return at Windsor (6f) having had a breathing operation, but he was unable to make the improvement anticipated, looking a little short of pace. Jury out on him for now.

Form: 535-0

(5)

Beach Partee^v²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Mikkel Mortensen⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 63| D

40/1

Successful 3 times last year but has made a very tame start for new connections, failing to beat another rival in a couple of 5f handicaps (behind Solar Invicible at Bath and Life After Love at Southwell).

Form: 175-295

(10)

Adalida¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 62

2/1

Maiden who posted another respectable effort at Windsor (6f) a fortnight ago and could find a race as she continues to drop in the weights.

Form: 7-42547

Forecasts

Red Snapper (6/4), Adalida (2/1), Enter Sandman (3/1), Life After Love (7/1), Solar Invincible (17/2), Tie Fighter (10/1), Bessie Wallis (12/1), Viking Glory (12/1), Yes Waliim (18/1), Beach Partee (40/1)

VIKING GLORY never got the chance to show what he's capable of at Windsor on debut for James Owen and it would be no surprise to see him run much better this time. He gets the vote over the thriving Life After Love and Tie Fighter.
