Respectable Jack^p,t²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Warren Fentiman⁽³⁾| T: M Crawley| OR: 52

6/1

Maiden who didn't shape badly returning from a 4-month break when fourth of 10 in handicap (14/1) at Southwell (7f) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and entitled to step up on that run.

Form: 5-32554

(7)

Reenie's Dream^h²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: P Mulrennan| T: B Smart| OR: 51

9/1

Unreliable type who did herself no favours at the start on just second try at a sprint trip when fourth of 7 in handicap over this C&D (6/1) 22 days ago, very slowly away. Others more persuasive.

Form: 994884

Suzette^t²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Gina Mangan| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 50

28/1

Went backwards from stable debut when only eighth of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (1m, good) 28 days ago. Down in trip and refitted with a tongue strap.

Form: 6537-08

Turbo Command²²

Age: 9| Weight: 9-4| J: D Nolan| T: Mrs A C Hamilton| OR: 50| C

18/1

Seventeen runs since last win in 2024 but ran one of this season's better races when fifth of 13 in handicap at this course (7f) 22 days ago, albeit well positioned.

Form: 592365

Mrbluesky^h1²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: A Mullen| T: Gary Rutherford| OR: 50| C

66/1

Offered little on first run since leaving Richard Fahey after 11 months off when last of 13 in handicap at this course (7f, 18/1) 22 days ago. Hood on for 1st time.

Form: 55748-0

Lord Abama^b⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Sean Kirrane| T: M Dods| OR: 50| CD

7/2

Went with a lot more encouragement with blinkers back on when third of 10 in handicap over C&D (11/1) last week. Obvious chance from same mark with a repeat.

Form: 784973

Ridgemaster¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Amie Waugh⁽³⁾| T: S Waugh| OR: 50| C

11/4

Course winner who again found only one too good in 16-runner handicap at Redcar (6f, good) 16 days ago. Can remain competitive.

Form: 327222

(9)

Yaahobby^t⁶^{(ex 4)}

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: Ethan Tindall⁽⁵⁾| T: A Brittain| OR: 45| CD

17/2

Stepped up markedly on recent run to end a long losing run in 9-runner handicap (14/1) over C&D 6 days ago, slowly away. Uncertain to reproduce that form under a 4-lb penalty, though.

Form: 366491

(6)

Uncle Sam²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: C Horgan⁽⁵⁾| T: R Craggs| OR: 48| BF| CD

5/1

C&D winner who has a poor strike rate but returned to form when third of 8 in handicap (5/2) over this C&D 22 days ago.

Form: 820-263

(4)

Wee Dresser^p¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Greg Fairley| T: K Scott| OR: 48

33/1

Produced best effort in handicaps tried in cheekpieces when fourth in 11-runner event at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Task is now to build on that.

Form: 836784

(12)

Desert Master^v²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 45| C

11/1

Isn't proving easy to win with but again wasn't disgraced when sixth of 8 in handicap over this C&D 22 days ago. Should remain competitive.

Forecasts

Ridgemaster (11/4), Lord Abama (7/2), Uncle Sam (5/1), Respectable Jack (6/1), Yaahobby (17/2), Reenie's Dream (9/1), Desert Master (11/1), Breeze Star (12/1), Turbo Command (18/1), Suzette (28/1), Woodhay Whisper (28/1), Wee Dresser (33/1), Mrbluesky (66/1)

LORD ABAMA went close to cashing in on his much-reduced mark over C&D last week and a reproduction of that effort may well suffice. Ridgemaster and Desert Master arrive in good nick and head the opposition.
