On a losing run but he posted a good second at Leicester and backed that up when fifth at Hamilton. Considered down in class.
|
Yet to win on turf but is falling down the weights and boxed on to make the frame despite again not really settling at Carlisle 10 days ago. Needs things to drop right.
|
Veteran who capitalised on a career-low mark in good style at Ripon and quickly resumed winning ways at Musselburgh earlier this month. Shaped as if still in form in a big field under a penalty at York last week and this less competitive.
|
On a long losing run but was much better for return when fifth at Carlisle and he's potentially on a handy mark if coming on again.
|
Won 7f Lingfield maiden in September. Gelded over the winter and better for return when good third of 12 at Salisbury under this rider last month. Player on the back of that.
|
Stepped up on his qualifying runs when third at Doncaster on return. Checked out a bit tamely at Hamilton since but the ground was very fast that day. Worth another chance.
|
75,000 gns Sea The Moon colt who showed quite a bit of promise given it was his third quick outing when fourth at Chelmsford in December. Improvement expected now handicapping/up in trip (also gelded) so a major player at the foot of the weights.

Forecasts
Roc De Fer (6/4), What's The Plan (7/2), Qitaal (4/1), Poet's Dawn (7/1), King Of Fury (10/1), Yermanthere (14/1), Saxophonist (18/1)
ROC DE FER hails from a yard that has an excellent record with handicap debutants so a big run could be on the cards up in trip on return, especially if there's market support. What's The Plan and Qitaal are feared most.
- Roc De Fer6/4
- Qitaal4/1
