Justice Rock¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Nicola Currie⁽⁵⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 49| D

5/1

Dual winner from 53 starts to date but held in recent starts including over 6f at Chelmsford earlier this month. Interesting runner dropping in grade today.

Form: 4986-76

(12)

Monarch Maid⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: William Carson| T: P W Hiatt| OR: 49| D

12/1

Put a couple of disappointing efforts behind her when a close sixth over C&D last time out. Races off the same mark today and may surprise a few better fancied rivals in this contest.

Form: 79480-6

(9)

Rapid Rise^b⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Watson⁽⁷⁾| T: J M Bradley| OR: 48

8/1

Good effort to finish runner-up over C&D in first time blinkers on his penultimate start and put in a fair effort despite finishing eighth here subsequently. Seeking his first victory at the 21st time of asking.

Form: 6746-28

Storm Lightning⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-5| J: E J Walsh⁽³⁾| T: W M Brisbourne| OR: 48

6/1

Six time winner and ran well to finish fourth over the minimum distance at Wolverhampton last time out. Races off the same mark today but best form has come over shorter.

Form: 79938-4

Only Ten Per Cent^v³⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 9-4| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 47| CD

14/1

Out of form of late including when ninth in this grade at Chelmsford last time out. Now over two years since he last visited the winners enclosure.

Whaleweigh Station^v⁴⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: S Donohoe| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 46| CD

14/1

Finished a good third over 7f here in October but well held in two subsequent outings including over this trip last time out. More needed today.

Wedgewood Estates¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: D C Costello| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45| D

7/1

Promising effort in finishing fourth over C&D earlier this month. Dropped 1lb for that effort and interesting as she bids for a first victory since spring 2016.

Form: 32078-4

(6)

Dalness Express^t¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: L Morris| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 45

10/3

Nine race maiden put in his best effort so far when finishing a close third over C&D earlier this month. Remains open to improvement and is one to note in this contest.

Form: 80/706-3

(2)

Indus Valley^b²⁶⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 9-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: D Donovan| OR: 45| CD

12/1

Form tailed off for Lee Carter but was a multiple winner for this trainer earlier in his career. Well handicapped on his old form and market support would be interesting on his return from over six months off the track.

Form: 756970-

(10)

Divine Call¹⁴⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Bennett⁽³⁾| T: C Wallis| OR: 45| CD

16/1

Disappointing for much of 2017 including when a well held fourth of five in a seller at Lingfield when last in action back in August. Debuts for a new yard today.

Form: 990084-

(5)

Twistsandturns⁹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Wintle| OR: 45| D

12/1

Five time winner in Ireland including over this trip at Dundalk. Decent effort to finish fourth over 7f here in October and debuts for a new trainer today.

Form: 000074-

(8)

Head Space^v²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 9-2| J: William Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: B Barr| OR: 45| CD

20/1

Disappointing in the main since joining this yard and more needed today having finished well beaten over 5f at Chelmsford earlier this month.

Form: 37886-8

Forecasts

Dalness Express (10/3), Justice Rock (5/1), Storm Lightning (6/1), Wedgewood Estates (7/1), Rapid Rise (8/1), Monarch Maid (12/1), Indus Valley (12/1), Twistsandturns (12/1), Whaleweigh Station (14/1), Only Ten Per Cent (14/1), Divine Call (16/1), Head Space (20/1)

DALNESS EXPRESS put in a good effort when third here last time out and he can improve on trainer John O'Shea's recent good record (2/6) by taking this competitive opening handicap. Top weight Justice Rock is taken to chase the selection home dropping in grade today and has won at this level in the past while Monarch Maid showed that she may be returning to form last time out and can finish third while longstanding maiden Rapid Rise is another worth considering today.
