(4)

Man Is King^t¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Mr Fletcher Yarham| T: D Flood| OR: 59| D

6/1

Made it 3 wins from last 4 starts when taking 9-runner handicap (4/1) at Bath (1¼m, good to firm) 10 days ago, responding well. 3 lb rise fair and another bold bid looks likely.

Form: 441141

(5)

Artavian^t1,v⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr Frederick Tett| T: P R Chamings| OR: 57

4/1

Ended last campaign with good second of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (1¼m, soft) in October and will be straighter for his Southwell reappearance. Could be a player.

Form: 58992-7

(6)

San Francisco Bay²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Mr Henry Main⁽³⁾| T: H Candy| OR: 56| D

9/2

Won over this trip at Nottingham last summer but rather been a mixed bag since and finished well held on return at Leicester last month.

Form: 15240-7

(2)

Offiah's Boy¹⁶⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Mr Henry Moore⁽⁵⁾| T: J Tickle| OR: 56| D

33/1

Multiple winner on Flat last year but below form in that sphere and over hurdles this winter. Returns with bit to prove.

Form: 11887-0

(10)

Thursday^h1³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Mr Guy Mitchell⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dow| OR: 55| D

28/1

Failed to beat a rival home in both starts since returning from lengthy absence this year. Now tried in hood for first time.

Form: 47/08-00

(3)

Palazzo Persico⁶⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Mr William Pearman⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 52| D

15/2

Patchy record for Denis Hogan in Ireland this year and likely best watched on first start for new yard here.

Form: 070300

(7)

Little She^t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Miss Alice Tregoning⁽⁵⁾| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 50

4/1

Yet to score but arrives on back of creditable third of 7 in handicap at Leicester (1½m, firm, 3/1) 21 days ago and can race off same mark here. Respected.

Form: 732-653

(9)

Change Of Fortune¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-4| J: Miss Jessica Llewellyn⁽⁵⁾| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 47

8/1

Sole success to date came at Ffos Las this time last year but ran respectably, back from 10 weeks off, when third of 6 in minor event at same course (1½m, soft) 11 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Claims if building on that.

Form: 34-5843

(1)

Ignition^p⁵⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: Mr J J Murphy-Knight⁽⁵⁾| T: T Faulkner| OR: 46

10/1

Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs and arrives on back of below-par effort at Wolverhampton 59 days ago. Work to do.

Form: 434639

(11)

Bloodhound^b,t¹⁰⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Miss Megan Jordan| T: S Lycett| OR: 45

11/1

Long-standing maiden who hasn't been seen since a poor effort over a longer trip at Chelmsford in March. Makes limited appeal.

Form: 8-45445

(8)

Resilient Lady^t²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Mr Kieran Wood⁽⁷⁾| T: G Brown| OR: 45

50/1

Ran one of her better races when fourth at Kempton in March but wasn't in same form at Lingfield last month. Looks up against it.

Form: 656849

Forecasts

Little She (4/1), Artavian (4/1), San Francisco Bay (9/2), Man Is King (6/1), Palazzo Persico (15/2), Change Of Fortune (8/1), Ignition (10/1), Bloodhound (11/1), Thursday (28/1), Offiah's Boy (33/1), Resilient Lady (50/1)

It could be worth chancing ARTAVIAN, who will be suited by any cut in the ground and ran well under this pilot in a similar contest last autumn. Man Is King and Little She are feared most.
