Senor Cortez⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Jack Callan⁽³⁾| T: J Butler| OR: 72| C

7/4

Dual winner (including here) when trained by Robert Eddery last August. Landed a gamble for new yard in 7-runner handicap at Southwell (1¾m) 8 days ago, forging clear last 1f. Very much one to consider under a 5 lb penalty.

Form: 32-3571

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: K Shoemark| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 71

16/1

Resumed winning ways at Leicester (1½m) in April but not been easiest to catch right since, a respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Newbury (11f) 20 days ago.

Form: 310385

Percy Jones¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 71

14/1

Scored at Wolverhampton last July. Yet to hit top form in 3 runs this season, cheekpieces on for 1st time when sixth of 8 in handicap at Chester 16 days ago.

Form: 558-836

Crackergee³⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: H Morrison| OR: 70

9/2

Capitalised on a reduced mark when gaining a first win at the twelfth attempt in 6-runner handicap at Ffos Las (1½m) last month. Back up 4 lb but not out of things.

Form: 055-441

(7)

Educator^b²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Marco Ghiani| T: Miss H C Knight| OR: 70| C

11/2

On a losing run but this course winner got back on track with second of 7 in handicap at Windsor 28 days ago, not ideally placed. Well in the mix nudged up 1 lb.

Form: 383702

Naasma²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Paddy Bradley| T: P Phelan| OR: 70| C

16/1

Course winner but yet to hit top form this season, a well-held third of 5 in turf handicap here (2m) 25 days ago. Down in trip with more needed.

Form: 14-4543

(2)

Big Bear Hug⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Alfie Redman⁽⁷⁾| T: J R Boyle| OR: 68

8/1

Built on earlier promise to land 7-runner handicap at Kempton (11f) 5 days ago when overcoming a pace bias. Escapes a penalty for that victory so holds leading claims.

Form: 08-5931

(3)

Love Is Golden^p²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Ben Ffrench-Davis⁽⁵⁾| T: P Butler| OR: 67

400/1

Won twice over hurdles in early 2023 for Gary Moore but has shown nothing after over 3 years off at Goodwood and on turf here last month. Makes polytrack debut.

Form: 4108/95

(4)

Mister Daydream⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Jude Fernandes⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 58| C

9/2

Right back on song for new yard with wide-margin success in selling handicap here (1½m) 7 days ago. This is tougher but he must enter calculations under a 5 lb penalty.

Form: 572-771

Forecasts

Senor Cortez (7/4), Mister Daydream (9/2), Crackergee (9/2), Educator (11/2), Big Bear Hug (8/1), Percy Jones (14/1), Naasma (16/1), Expressionless (16/1), Further Measure (25/1), Love Is Golden (400/1)

A few with chances but BIG BEAR HUG did well to score at Kempton recently and escapes a penalty for that apprentices' handicap success so is hard to side against. John Butler's Senor Cortez rates a big threat though after getting back to winning ways at Southwell last week, while both Mister Daydream and Educator can also play a prominent role.
