Imperial Guard¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 60

8/1

Yet to win a handicap and tumbled a long way in the weights as a result. Respectable fifth at Thirsk 12 days ago and may yet be working his way back to form.

Form: 696-885

Jkr Cobbler⁸^{(ex 4)}

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Jack Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 54| CD

6/4

Gained a fifth C&D success by 1¾ lengths from Lope Y Linda in 11-runner handicap just 8 days ago. Looks well treated under a 4-lb penalty and has to be taken seriously in follow-up bid.

Form: 457341

War Memorial²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: C J Whiteley⁽⁵⁾| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 57| D

7/1

Finally off the mark at Musselburgh (7f) in April and recorded a second success in 8-runner handicap at Catterick (7f, firm, 11/4) 3 weeks ago with this good-value claimer in the saddle. Can go well again in current form.

Ramon Di Loria⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: Greg Fairley| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 56| C| D

10/1

Course winner who landed back-to-back successes at Wolverhampton earlier this year. Returned to form with a pair of third-placed finishes on last 2 starts and has to enter calculations.

Form: 563633

Tap Dancer⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 56

13/2

Has failed to fully fire this season since joining this yard but it's still just early days with her in that regard. Back down in trip and is one to dismiss at your peril from this mark.

Form: 58-7467

Penny Mountain⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Jake Dickson⁽⁷⁾| T: Gary Rutherford| OR: 53

13/2

Has just a sole success at Newcastle on New Year's Day to her record but has largely remained in form since. Shaped better than distance beaten suggests when 3½ lengths fifth behind JKR Cobbler over C&D 8 days ago, meeting trouble at a crucial point. Enters calculations.

Form: 356335

Monhammer⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: A Mullen| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 50| CD

12/1

C&D winner who's on long losing run. Not disgraced after losing ground at the start when 3½ lengths fourth to JKR Cobbler over C&D 8 days ago. Each-way claims at best.

Form: 25-0324

Due Respect²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Hart| T: Gary Rutherford| OR: 50| D

14/1

Sole success came at Redcar (7f) last July. One of best runs since when fourth of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (7f, good to firm, 33/1) 21 days ago.

Form: 98-7504

(7)

Bantz²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Sean Kirrane| T: A D Brown| OR: 48| D

33/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2025 and no real signs of a revival for new yard this year. Can only be watched at present.

Form: 880-079

Forecasts

Jkr Cobbler (6/4), Tap Dancer (13/2), Penny Mountain (13/2), War Memorial (7/1), Imperial Guard (8/1), Ramon Di Loria (10/1), Monhammer (12/1), Due Respect (14/1), Bantz (33/1)

JKR COBBLER had a few of these behind when winning over C&D just over a week ago and can confirm that superiority under a 4-lb penalty. War Memorial is entitled to be in the mix on recent efforts, while Ramon di Loria may have to settle for more minor money.
