Invincible Crown^t²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: T Eaves| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 60| D

11/1

Now 3 lb below his latest winning mark following his comeback run at Pontefract and having been successful the last time he contested this grade, there are high hopes that a first turf victory is in the offing.

Form: 41049-6

Ganesha^p1,t⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Rowan Scott| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 59| D

5/1

Well beaten on a rare start over 6f at Thirsk last time, though is at least back over his favoured trip, and cannot be totally discounted off a falling mark with first-time cheekpieces added.

Form: 790560

Canaria Queen^p¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: P Mulrennan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 57| CD

10/3

Resumed winning ways in 14-runner handicap at Doncaster (runner-up won next time) before proving too keen to see out her race at Ayr subsequently. Probably worth another chance returning to this C&D (1-1), though.

Form: 524-616

(4)

Royal Duke¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Rhys Elliott⁽⁵⁾| T: R M Smith| OR: 55| CD

10/1

Likely to be better for his reappearance run at Ayr and finds himself back on the same mark as when landing a second C&D success last August.

Form: 10680-7

(7)

Classy Clarets¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Mohammed Tabti⁽⁵⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 53| BF| D

9/4

Headstrong sort who scored for the first time on turf at Hamilton 6 days ago, typically pulling hard but knuckling down well. Worth considering again in this groove. Engaged 2.12 Ayr Wednesday.

Form: 213313

Fear And Fast^v¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: O J Orr| T: J S Goldie| OR: 51

10/1

Long-standing maiden ran his best race for current connections when runner-up over C&D in the autumn. Possibly needed the run on his return at Ayr and isn't to be dismissed if back on song.

Form: 36267-9

Sir Benedict^p¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 48| D

5/1

Isn't the easiest to win with but back to form in refitted cheekpieces when fourth of 12 at Hamilton last time, looking unlikely not to finish to closer, and he hasn't been long with his capable new yard.

Form: 486254

(9)

Soul Seeker^b,t¹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 8-9| J: Aiden Brookes| T: P A Kirby| OR: 46| D

33/1

Hasn't shaped as though ready to capitalise on his plummeting mark and hopes rest on the refitting of more severe headgear.

Form: 570-087

Forecasts

Classy Clarets (9/4), Canaria Queen (10/3), Sir Benedict (5/1), Ganesha (5/1), Royal Duke (10/1), Fear And Fast (10/1), Wrestling Revenue (10/1), Invincible Crown (11/1), Soul Seeker (33/1)

Although he'd prefer more pace in the race, INVINCIBLE CROWN still looks interesting dropped in class, and he gets the vote in an open-looking handicap. Classy Clarets is more than capable in this grade but comes with risks attached, while Canaria Queen is respected in her bid to make it 2-2 over C&D.
