K Club⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-13| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 87

12/1

Placed in nurseries at Chester and Newbury, but a bit below that level on last two starts, and facing a stiff enough task conceding weight to all her rivals on Polytrack debut.

Form: 483365

(3)

Shining Armor⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Darragh Keenan⁽⁵⁾| T: J Ryan| OR: 81| D

13/8

Has won all three starts in nurseries, and produced further improvement when neck second of 7 to Deputise in minor event at Wolverhampton last time. Appears ahead of his mark on that evidence.

Form: 781112

Uncle Jerry^b²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: George Rooke⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hughes| OR: 80| C| D

8/1

Has done well to win a couple of AW nurseries, but handicapper has reacted and latest effort over 7f here suggests he's too high in the weights now.

Form: 621124

(2)

Reticent Angel^p1⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 77

11/2

Won her first two starts in this sphere, and as good as ever when second of 10 to Beleaguerment over C&D last time. Solid place claims assuming cheekpieces help her eke out a little more improvement.

Form: 837112

(5)

Beleaguerment⁹^{(ex 6)}

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Edward Greatrex| T: A Watson| OR: 68| CD

7/4

Lost his way for previous handler tackling longer trips, but took advantage of reduced mark when just too strong for Reticent Angel in a C&D nursery last time. Will do well to confirm the form on revised terms.

Form: 544671

Forecasts

Shining Armor (13/8), Beleaguerment (7/4), Reticent Angel (11/2), Uncle Jerry (8/1), K Club (12/1)

SHINING ARMOR looks on a lenient mark given his improved effort at Wolverhampton last time, and he's a confident shout to bring his record in handicaps to four out of four. Reticent Angel can turn recent C&D tables with Beleaguerment, and appears the main danger to the selection.
