Napoleons Casino And Restaurant Hull Handicap

(6)

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 55| CD

A 3-time C&D winner, including in this in 2024. In good form this season until only tenth of 11 over C&D 17 days ago but no surprise to see him bounce back here.

Form: 3-02240

(1)

African Spirit^p,t²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Ian Williams| OR: 53| D

Lost his form for Ben Brookhouse. Off around 16 months and first form for current yard when (tongue tied and cheekpieces on) third of 11 in handicap at Windsor (1m) 21 days ago. Needs to back it up now.

Form: 08/8-783

(9)

Back From Dubai³⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 9-8| J: George Wood| T: S R Bowring| OR: 51| CD

Back to winning ways at Doncaster in May but he came in only thirteenth of 18 there (1m) last month. This C&D winner needs to get back on track.

Form: 883140

(2)

Ice Show^h²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rowan Scott| T: D O'Meara| OR: 55

Ulysses filly who hinted at promise in a trio of runs before beating only one in 9.5f maiden at Wolverhampton 22 days ago. Could still do better now going handicapping.

Form: 5560

(5)

Bantz^p1⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Barry McHugh| T: A D Brown| OR: 48| D

Thirteen runs since his last win in 2025 and no real signs of a revival for new yard this year. Cheekpieces are reached for here.

Form: 80-0797

(8)

Ryefield^v1⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 54

Proving much more miss than hit so far, and tried in cheekpieces when last of 8 at Wetherby (5.5f) last month. Visor is fitted now.

Form: 2095-88

(7)

Walk On Walk On^p¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Ryan Sexton| T: N Wilson| OR: 52

Yet to win but he posted a very good second of 6 over C&D 16 days ago. Weighted to go very well nudged up 1 lb.

Form: 064052

(4)

Itszaboy^p1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Faye McManoman| T: N Tinkler| OR: 52

Modest maiden who has failed to kick on sent handicapping, sixth of 7 here (8.5f) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces go on for the first time.

Form: 577-066

(3)

Alice's Influence^b1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: P J McDonald| T: P D Evans| OR: 51

Gained a first win at Wetherby in April and largely in good nick, though saddle slipped when fourth of 7 at Chepstow (1m) 17 days ago. Not out of things in a headgear change.

Form: 123434

Forecasts

African Spirit (9/4), Walk On Walk On (11/4), Alice's Influence (5/1), King Sharja (7/1), Back From Dubai (10/1), Itszaboy (12/1), Ice Show (12/1), Ryefield (25/1), Bantz (25/1)

Most of these arrive with a question mark against them so this looks a good opportunity for WALK ON WALK ON to build on a very good recent C&D second and gain a breakthrough success. King Sharja goes well round here and took this prize in 2024 so he could emerge as the chief threat ahead of Alice's Influence and Back From Dubai.
