DSK Environmental Handicap

(3)

Enter Sandman^p,t³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Jack Callan⁽³⁾| T: R Spencer| OR: 70| D

11/4

Has been in fine form, successful on all-weather at Newcastle and Lingfield and worn down only in the shadow of the post at Wolverhampton last time. Another 4 lb rise to deal with now switched to turf but he still needs considering.

Form: 433112

Percy's Star^p1¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S De Sousa| T: C A Dwyer| OR: 68

9/4

Bred to stay further but clearly not short of speed, runner-up over 6f at Windsor last month. Didn't look an easy ride when last of 4 over same C&D 2 weeks ago and now down at 5f for handicap debut fitted with cheekpieces.

Form: 524

(1)

Nebbia³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Rob Hornby| T: H Morrison| OR: 67

7/2

Sound return from 5 months off switched to turf when fifth of 13 at Windsor a month ago (6f). Drops back to 5f for the first time.

Form: 5725-5

(5)

Life After Love²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Charles Bishop| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 67| D

7/2

Made it 3 wins from her last 3 visits to Southwell in April, again showing a good attitude. Did enough on the grass at Lingfield 3 weeks ago to think she's as effective on turf.

Form: 124113

(4)

Love Alive¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jack Dace⁽⁵⁾| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 66| D

18/1

Got off the mark at Wolverhampton (5f) in February but went backwards in a couple of starts after for Martin Dunne and no upturn in her fortunes for new yard on turf 2 weeks ago.

Form: 6-71596

(8)

Bessie Wallis^h1²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D Menuisier| OR: 66| D

8/1

Allotted a tough mark after winning an all-weather novice in October and has struggled to make an impact in handicaps. Hood on for the first time.

Form: 8516-55

(6)

Davorge Nation²⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Harry Smith⁽⁷⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 64| DWS

10/1

Made second nursery start a winning one at Musselburgh in August. Third at Southwell a week later before suffering a heavy defeat with blinkers back on in September. Off since (has had a breathing operation).

I'm Dan Dare⁹

Weight: 9-2| Age: 3

T: M Walford J: J Garritty

Forecasts

I'm Dan Dare (5/2), Enter Sandman (10/3), Life After Love (5/1), Percy's Star (6/1), Nebbia (13/2), Bessie Wallis (12/1), Davorge Nation (12/1), Love Alive (20/1)

Assuming the removal of cheekpieces doesn't have a negative effect, I'M DAN DARE looks the way to go having turned a Catterick handicap into a one-sided affair on debut for Mark Walford last week (that race is already working out). Enter Sandman is a big threat if translating his all-weather form to turf, with Life After Love another to consider.
