My Target³²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: M Wigham| OR: 87| D

8/1

Winner of seven AW races, but the last of them was achieved in March, 2017. Has dropped to a dangerous handicap mark and latest effort offered a glimpse of promise.

Breaking Records^h²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: J Mitchell| T: H Palmer| OR: 87

5/1

In really good form on the AW recently, scoring at Chelmsford and hitting the frame three times, all over 7f. Well worth trying over this longer trip off a realistic mark.

Trevithick⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: J Fanning| T: B Smart| OR: 85| CD

11/4

Only win came in a novice auction race over C&D and he has been a bit hit and miss in handicap company. Has the ability to get involved, but others have stronger claims.

Come On Tier²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: M Harley| T: D M Simcock| OR: 80| D

7/2

Only win came on turf, but AW debut at Kempton last month was encouraging enough. Down 2lb and is in with a shout.

Space Bandit³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: A Mullen| T: M Appleby| OR: 76| D

12/1

Two runs since joining this yard from Michael Bell's stable have yielded a fourth at Wolverhampton and a win at Southwell, both in maiden company. This surface is much different to Fibresand, but he is progressive and makes his handicap bow.

Dubai Acclaim³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Barry McHugh| T: R A Fahey| OR: 74| CD

3/1

Second of two career successes came last time in a C&D handicap. A 2lb rise seems lenient and he has to be a leading player.

Forecasts

Trevithick (11/4), Dubai Acclaim (3/1), Come On Tier (7/2), Breaking Records (5/1), My Target (8/1), Space Bandit (12/1)

My Target lurks on a dangerous mark, but needs to build on an encouraging effort last time. Space Bandit is unexposed and progressive and his opening handicap mark looks fair, but in DUBAI ACCLAIM he faces a rival who is proven over C&D and is only 2lb higher than when scoring on his latest start. Breaking Records and Come On Tier also warrant plenty of respect in a trappy contest.
