By Tom Weekes - DUN NA SEAD bounced back to form over course and distance last month and can cope with a 9lb hike. A debut Curragh winner in 2021, she was once rated 85 and while she became frustrating, she won nicely from Tai Sing Yeh last time and can continue to progress. Tai Sing Yeh franked that form by winning subsequently but is better over six furlongs. He defeated Inflection Point to win eight days ago and Inflection Point is himself being better over longer distances, nowadays. Little Queenie has a good all-weather record but has climbed up the ratings while Tawaazon was a winner last-time (comfortably beating Collective Power) but tries this distance for just the second time. Daintree is a dual CD winner but hasn't won for a year.
By Tom Weekes - SUPREME LAW ran well on debut for his new yard over course and distance a fortnight ago. He had previously been running over shorter distances and disappointed on soft ground last September but showed plenty on his reappearance. He re-opposes winner Hinemoa on 7lb worse terms but Colin Keane takes the ride, is open to progression and Hinemoa has a wider draw. Celtic Revival finished fourth then and while a keen-goer, stays quite well. Golden Sandbanks was a well-backed CD winner in November and while he lacks a run, his same winning rider is a notable booking. Sea Oscar, which is on her fifth trainer and third country, ran well behind Celtic Revival in February and is largely unexposed over today's same, and seemingly suitable, 1m4f distance. Lex Maxima, a 10-race maiden, and Pro Bono, with one win from 25, have place claims.
By Tom Weekes - BOWERMAN's rating dropped 24lb in 11 months prior to scoring in February and the admirable 12-time winner can strike again. His recent form is consistent and while raised 6lb for his most recent win, today's rider claims 7lb which gives him every chance over the same CD. Higher Kingdom has an excellent all-weather record and is in rude health but is 5lb higher than when winning here a fortnight ago. Most of his form is at a mile but won over this distance, when rated 74, in January. Cold Steel remains unexposed, being a light-raced five year who is unbeaten in two course runs and while he could be suited by stepping back up in distance, lacks a recent run. Cristal Clere was beaten by the selection recently and is 1lb worse off while Burren Song and Roman Bull have been running well recently. No Trouble was second in a recent claimer.
By Tom Weekes - PULSE OF SHANGHAI hasn't won for two years but his rating has recently dropped to its lowest level and he ran well over course and distance a fortnight ago. Once rated 94 and a four-time all-weather winner, he finished narrowly ahead of today's rival Hero Of The Hour recently. Hero Of The Hour continues in form and while beaten 2.25 lengths last time, finished well and should compete from his same rating. Poet's Pride is a five-time all-weather winner who was once rated 68 and having won over CD last month, should compete from 6lb higher. Un Bacio Ancora has been running well but is a 14-race maiden while Numoor is in form but would prefer further.
By Tom Weekes - HEARTRATE returned following a 177-day break when second to Almendares here recently. He had previously shown form on testing ground at Cork in September and on his last run, shaped as though he would stay today's extra furlong. Artemis Jones herself finished the same 1.25 lengths behind Almendares when running well on debut, although Almendars was lacking a run on that occasion. Today's rider claims 3lb, which is a help, and she is likely to improve having been slowly away on debut. Initial Attempt has form over a mile and while sure to run another useful race, could be vulnerable to one or two. Lily Maguire disappointed behind Artemis Jones in February but had earlier run well at this distance in January. Highland Rahy, a 160,000 dollar purchase last September, is a half-brother to three Japanese winners and is out of a half-sister to a Grade 1 winner.
By Tom Weekes - MEMORIAL VERSE showed some encouragement on handicap debut three weeks ago and might turn form with winner Distillate and third-paced Bright Dick. Out of a Group 3 winner, the selection raced off the pace in that recent race and surrendered some ground by racing wide but finished reasonably well and might improve. Hardened-handicapper Distillate has held form since contesting nine Nurserys last year and won in a first-time tongue-tie recently, although is now 4lb higher. Bright Dick, bidding to get his stallion a first winner, is out of a half-sister to Group 1 winner Verbal Dexterity and has run well in two recent course handicaps. Fleetfootsoldier won under his capable South African rider eight days ago and should run well from just 2lb higher, but drops a furlong. Magnanimous Mehmus showed form last winter but hasn't run for 93 days while Havana Notion has thrice failed to justify favouritism in handicaps.
By Tom Weekes - CIRCLES might complete a hat-trick of wins over today's course and distance. Her form is consistent but seems to have improved in recent times and further progression is possible, being out of a Galileo-sired mare. Benavente has also been running well and while he might possibly prefer a mile, is well suited by this surface and should run well. Jered Maddox beat the selection to win here in December and beat Yester to win in February, but was a little below par here three weeks ago. Exquisite Acclaim's rating has fallen in recent times but wasn't beaten far when last seen in December. She's In The Game is a good-ground turf performer and appreciated this surface when winning here when last seen in November. Jaafel runs for new connections having won a recent claimer but appears better over a mile.
By Tom Weekes - ELLABELLA's four career wins have been gained over course and distance and she ran well in a higher-grade handicap recently. Today's rider claims an extra 2lb and her middle-draw should help her break smartly to again make the running. Indiana Grey is a six-time winner who is similarly suited by today's mile. She too races from a career high rating but was beaten in this grade on recent runs. Numidia has done almost all his racing over longer distances but did beat Indiana Grey to win over CD in February and wasn't beaten far, from 2lb lower, here 28 days ago. Feature This was checked early-on last month, is proven over CD and some further progression is possible being a lightly-raced four-year-old. Royal Tribute seemed to appreciate stepping back up to this distance recently while Bringsty ran well enough in a recent claimer but faces a tougher task dropping in distance.
- Runner-up on her last three starts, including over C&D on her most recent run, CREM FRESH is entitled to go one better off a 3lb raised mark and she should not be taken lightly. She was only denied by a neck over this trip at Lingfield off the same mark on her penultimate start and is expected to go very close, but I Giorni should not be dismissed despite having to shoulder top weight. Hazy Dream completes the shortlist.
- In not the strongest of contests, marginal preference is for the Fergal O'Brien-trained CHARLES ST. Although he finished a very distant second over an extended 2m at Market Rasen last month, he was only denied by half a length at Huntingdon on his penultimate run and is fancied to improve here. Just Over Land and Jikala rate his biggest dangers.
- KESTREL VALLEY made a pleasing stable debut for Kerry Lee when securing a facile success over 3m at Ludlow earlier this month, and a 6lb raised mark may not be enough to stop her following up in this. Voice Of Hope is on the same mark as when a creditable second over an extended 2m7f at Huntingdon and is feared most ahead of Paseo and Born At Midnight.
- Connections look to have found a nice opportunity for the in-form CREDO as she returns to hurdles off a 5lb lower mark. A winner of two of her last four starts over the larger obstacles, the eight-year-old should have too much for Martha Brae, who deserves a change in luck having finished runner-up on her last three starts in this sphere. Fine By Her is another that could improve for going up in distance.
- A comfortable winner of his last two starts here, including over C&D last time out, FAMILY POT must hold every chance of landing the hat-trick off a mark which is still below his career high. That may be at the main expense of Fontwell scorer Arcade Attraction and the consistent Pawpaw, who is winless since April 2021. On The Platform and Supasunrise can also have a say in proceedings.
- SINISTER MINISTER returns on the back of a 169-day absence having filled the runner-up spot at Worcester in October. That performance also came after a break and, off only 1lb higher, he isn't one to take lightly. Mystic Man makes his handicap debut off a low mark and is also noted, while a drop back in trip might aid the cause of Sixty Dollars More.
- There was a lot to like about the way LUMP SUM won on his debut at Bangor in October and Sam Thomas' five-year-old may be good enough to shrug off a 7lb penalty for that success. Heros De Romay was another who made the perfect start to his racing career when displaying a good attitude to win at Exeter in January and he can't be ruled out. Stop Loss is a half-brother to Ballynagour and any market support would be noteworthy.
- GARDE DES CHAMPS may be a maiden after 10 starts under Rules, but he's been running well in handicaps since returning from wind surgery and the drop into maiden company could help him get off the mark. Quaresome landed a bumper at Roscommon in September and he must enter calculations on his debut for the Donald McCain yard. Artiste D'ainay, who finished third behind exciting Ballymore winner Impaire Et Passe (albeit beaten 23 lengths) at Naas in December, demands the utmost respect too.
- LONE STAR proved she was still ahead of the handicapper when being eased down to win over C&D 23 days ago, and a further 10lb rise might not be enough to stop Philip Kirby's mare from completing the four-timer. Maimie's Magic appears to be equally as progressive after victories at Kelso and Newcastle, and she must be feared as she bids to maintain her unbeaten record in handicaps. Others to note include Ravenscar and Latino Fling.
- In what appears to be a wide-open contest, only a tentative vote can go to RING OF BEARA. Tim Easterby's juvenile ran well behind Sarsons Risk at Doncaster and the winner was still in contention when subsequently coming down in the Adonis. Given that Ring Of Beara achieved a peak rating of 93 on the Flat, an opening NH mark of 104 ought to be more than manageable. Pretending and Cianciana remain in good form and must be considered, along with Freddy Robinson, who meets his recent Kelso conqueror Planet Legend on considerably better terms.
- CROSSING THE BAR returned to form with a victory at Plumpton on his latest outing and a repeat of that performance would make him a tough nut to crack, despite giving weight to all of his rivals. You Some Boy appeared to benefit from a sounder surface when successful at Ayr earlier this month and he commands plenty of respect along with Lock Down Luke and Red Missile.
- Russian Virtue is on a four-timer over hurdles and arrives on the back of a recent success on the Flat at Newcastle. His last victory over timber came at Sedgefield in January and he is expected to be in the mix off a 7lb higher mark. Ivetwiggedit hasn't looked back since joining Tom Lacey and moving into handicap company, completing a quickfire treble under Cameron Iles, and has to enter calculations, but the vote goes to WELL EDUCATED. George Bewley's seven-year-old was in excellent form last autumn and returned from a break with a creditable effort against stronger opposition at Kelso. Dropped 1lb, he is entitled to step forward and prove capable of further improvement.
- WHITE RHINO hasn't looked back since entering handicaps, with three wins to his name in the last couple of months, and a 7lb penalty for his comfortable success at Southwell on Monday is unlikely to prevent another bold bid. Shir I Dont Know proved a different proposition when winning on his handicap bow over 2m at Ayr and he's feared most on this rise in distance, although Ballyporeen may benefit from the drop in trip on his debut for the Donald McCain team.
- TOUCH OF A DRAGON ran a race full of promise when staying on into fourth (promoted to third) on her introduction at Ayr and with the second subsequently romping home at Southwell on Monday, Micky Hammond's filly looks the one to beat. Of Course You Can can't be taken lightly after a fine runner-up effort on debut at Huntingdon, with El Elefante, who was second on her sole start between the flags in Ireland, making most appeal of the remainder.
- This can go the way of THE CARPENTER, who won with a bit more in hand than the winning margin suggests at Exeter last month. The step up in trip should be right up his street and he can see off the likes of Fontwell winner Sound And Fury and Iliko D'olivate, who is better than what he showed at Ascot last time out.
- It is difficult to look past MANOTHEPEOPLE, who is unbeaten over fences but has not been in action since early December. Fergal O'Brien's charge has won his last four under rules and this looks like another ideal opportunity to continue the winning streak. A winner at Leicester on his penultimate start, Our Jet is interesting stepping up in trip, while Bridge North may benefit from a switch to the larger obstacles.
- DR T J ECKLEBURG has shown more than enough on both starts this season to suggest that he can return to winning ways, especially with his stable in such excellent form. The ground should be a help as well and the five-year-old gets the vote ahead of handicap debutant Arqoob, and Russian Ruler, who looked booked for second last time out when falling at the last over C&D.
- Zanza drops in grade having finished fourth in the Greatwood Gold Cup here earlier this month and the track specialist has to enter calculations on his return to timber. However, a 7lb penalty may not be enough to stop LOUP DE MAULDE continuing his excellent run of form after his recent victory at Warwick. Kilbeg King can give the selection most to think about stepping up in trip.
- The fact that Enzo D'Airy retains the same mark having filled the runner-up spot over an extended 2m5f at Wetherby earlier this month must make the nine-year-old of interest, especially with the winner of that contest scoring again earlier this week, but preference lies with FIVE STAR GETAWAY. Christian Williams' charge drops in class following a recent second over 2m4f at Newcastle last month and is entitled to improve here back up in distance, while Precious Eleanor completes the shortlist.
- SOME SCOPE has looked outpaced on all of his starts over shorter, but he should relish the step up to 3m on his handicap bow and the former point-to-point winner is fancied to find significant improvement. Island Run had the beating of Ballymagroarty Boy (second) when the pair met at Wincanton 15 days ago, but it would be no surprise if he reversed that form on revised terms, with the return to a left-handed track an added bonus. Others to note include Shot Boii, Ballycamus and Ernest Gray.
- Lift Me Up arrives having landed a hat-trick in the point-to-point sphere, but, though he demands respect, CARYTO DES BROSSES edges the vote. David Kemp's charge defied a 311-day absence when winning at Southwell 18 days ago and he could prove difficult to beat if running to a similar level here. Drop Flight and From The Heart can battle it out for third.
- WE STILL BELIEVE finished a never-nearer second over C&D in a classified stakes contest earlier in the month and he may have more to offer now returning to handicaps. Daaris appeared to be in good form when runner-up here in October and is likely to prove popular with Billy Loughnane on board, but he may find this 1m2f trip on the sharp side. A bigger threat comes in the shape of Pallas Lord, who looks to have a race of this nature within his compass off his current mark.
- King Carney appeared to be caught out by the slow pace when finishing fifth over C&D earlier in the month and, with no obvious pace setter here, a similar scenario could develop. DOUGIES DREAM weakened into fourth on that occasion and Nigel Tinkler's charge may be ready to capitalise off a 1lb lower mark. Sandret is only 3lb higher than his win here in September and he could be freshened up by a 150-day break.
- ST ANDREW'S CASTLE appeared to win with something in hand when keeping on well over C&D earlier this month and the four-year-old is taken to complete a double off only 3lb higher. Code Purple was collared late on here last month and he's feared most if running to a similar level, while The Cola Brasil, who finished second behind a subsequent winner at Dundalk in February, is also noted.
- BROOKLYN NINE NINE sets the standard based on his two seconds to date at Beverley and York in the autumn, and the son of No Nay Never has been found a suitable opportunity to get off the mark. Lord Abama showed ability for Mick Halford in Ireland and has to be of interest making his debut for Michael Dods, while Al Najada is capable of better following his second start at Wolverhampton.
- BLAZING SON clearly gets on well with Mark Winn having got off the mark on his penultimate start at Redcar before backing that performance up over C&D in December. The five-year-old is open to further improvement and is taken to land the hat-trick. Crocodile Power is expected to bounce back from his most recent display here, while the consistent Gunnerside and Nickleby appeal most of the remainder.
- MIGHTY POWER kept on well to lead close home over 6f here last time out and, though this demands more off a 5lb higher mark, the return to further could see him continue his progression. Mercurius Power remains on a workable mark and the former C&D winner ought to be more than capable of mounting a serious challenge, along with Ron O, whose ability to stay further could stand him in good stead if they go quick.
- It often pays to be drawn high over the sprint trips here, and that should help ELZAAL, who seeks a hat-trick having notched up a brace of C&D victories recently. Mews House was returning from a 122-day absence when narrowly denied by the selection three weeks ago but, though he's weighted to reverse the form, a low draw is far from ideal. Enraged and Kraken Power are others to note.
