Roysse^t³²

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Beau Morgan⁽⁵⁾| T: B Pauling| OR: 117| D

2/1

Proved disappointing over fences given he looked the type to take well to that discipline but returned to form when capitalising on a falling mark on second start back in this sphere at Bangor (17f) last month, seeming suited by a return to patient tactics. A 7 lb higher mark is manageable.

Form: 79336-1

Arnie Moon⁷¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Callum Pritchard| T: J Tickle| OR: 113| D

4/1

Much improved to make a winning handicap debut at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in March, forging clear. Took a heavy fall at Exeter next time but has been given plenty of time to get over that.

Bertie B¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: R P McLernon| T: C Boultbee-Brooks| OR: 108

16/1

Ended the 2024/25 season badly out of sorts and offered little on his recent comeback at this course.

Form: 17P09/P

Scintillante²⁰

4/1

In top form at Worcester last summer, winning twice and runner-up 3 times. Stepped up on recent run when fourth of 7 at Warwick but ran badly back over C&D last month and has since undergone a breathing operation.

Form: 2286-46

Ez Tiger^t²⁴⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-12| J: Bryan Carver| T: A M Hales| OR: 101| CD

2/1

Recorded a fifth success of his career in 5-runner handicap at Plumpton (2m, soft) in October. Returns from 8 month-break from a career-high mark but has a good record fresh.

Forecasts

Roysse (2/1), Ez Tiger (2/1), Scintillante (4/1), Arnie Moon (4/1), Cinammon Coco (10/1), Bertie B (16/1)

ROYSSE capitalised on a falling mark in smooth style at Bangor last month and looks capable of defying a 7 lb rise in the weights. Arnie Moon has been given time to get over a heavy fall at Exeter and is feared, along with Ez Tiger, who is very capable when fresh.
