Hatamoto⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Harry Russell| T: T D Easterby| OR: 55| BF

5/2

Sent off favourite and took a step forward when second of 10 on 1m Carlisle handicap debut (soft) 8 days ago. May do better again and earns the vote.

Form: 55-62

(9)

Elashgar³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: J Mitchell| T: K Frost| OR: 55

15/2

Showed improved form to score on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (6f) in February. Backed that up when second there (6f again) in March but below par switched to turf at Nottingham last month.

Form: 9-83120

(6)

Zoulette⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Loughnane| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 54

3/1

Couldn't muster the speed to get competitive on 6f Windsor handicap debut and will be suited by the return to 7f. Billy Loughnane takes the reins.

Form: 6367

(4)

She's Crafty⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Colin Keane| T: G G Margarson| OR: 54

5/1

Maiden but she has recorded a couple of creditable in-frame efforts since joining George Margarson (including C&D). Ought to be competitive again.

Form: 577-452

(3)

Giles Glory^t,p²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Oisin Murphy| T: T Ellis| OR: 53| D

13/2

Won on all-weather at Lingfield in January for Joseph Parr. Blinkered first time, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) for new yard 29 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Oisin Murphy does the steering. Considered.

Form: 146445

Telling Time³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 50

14/1

Bounced back to form dropped to 6f when neck second at Wolverhampton in March but has failed to reproduce that on turf since and needs to prove he's equally as effective on the grass.

Form: 3-98270

Woody Y Fernandez¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Darragh Keenan| T: I Furtado| OR: 49

9/1

Maiden but has been placed on a few occasions, including at Wolverhampton (6f) in March on his first run for Stephen Hanlon. Lesser effort at Redcar 19 days ago and has changed stable again since. More than capable off this mark if putting his best foot forward.

Form: 853-036

(11)

Escape Magic¹⁷³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 49

13/2

No more than hinted at ability in 3 all-weather outings at the end of 2005 but in good hands and no surprise were she to prove a different proposition in handicaps. All the more interesting if backed.

Form: 760-

(8)

Girls Allowed²²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Josephine Gordon| T: J & S Birkett| OR: 47

9/1

Poor form in 3 qualifying runs last year but handicaps provide her with a more realistic chance.

Form: 966-

(1)

Muvable^b1¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Ryan Sexton| T: T D Easterby| OR: 45

28/1

Yet to show any worthwhile form, including in 2 Redcar handicaps (6f/1m) this year. First-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) need to spark improvement.

Form: 090-78

(7)

Snow Day²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: William Carson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45

28/1

Has failed to beat a rival in 3 all-weather outings, the latest at Kempton 20 days ago. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 00-0

Forecasts

Hatamoto (15/8), Woody Y Fernandez (4/1), Giles Glory (5/1), She's Crafty (5/1), Zoulette (12/1), Elashgar (14/1), Girls Allowed (20/1), Escape Magic (20/1), Telling Time (20/1), Muvable (33/1), Snow Day (33/1)

HATAMOTO made a positive start to his handicap career when second at Carlisle last Monday and is taken to go one better off the same mark now. The booking of Oisin Murphy for Giles Glory takes the eye and he's second choice. Owen Burrows handicap newcomer Escape Magic would also enter the reckoning if the betting hints that improvement is likely now handicapping.
