Point Zero^b¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Theodore Ladd⁽⁵⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 72| D

9/1

Back on last winning mark although all three successes and best form has come on the fibresand. Out of form last three starts and vulnerable back on turf.

Form: 351056

Grandfather Tom¹⁷⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 70| D

6/1

Rattled off an AW hat-trick early last year but without a win since. Disappointing at Nottingham latest but ran well over this C&D two starts back and quicker ground would help. Given a chance by the handicapper and can be involved.

Form: 525640-

Wiff Waff¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S C Williams| OR: 69| CD

2/1

Now 1lb lower than when winning over this C&D last July and returns to turf off the back of a consistent run of AW form. Race fit and likely to go well again.

Form: 543452

(5)

Sir Hector²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Joshua Bryan⁽³⁾| T: C Wallis| OR: 68| D

5/1

Won off 6lb lower for sole success in January 2018 and consistent since without winning. Unproven on a quicker surface which is a query but could be competitive if handling it.

Form: 22444-6

(3)

Princess Keira¹⁶⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: P Cosgrave| T: M Quinn| OR: 61| C

11/2

Goes particularly well here and broke through with a strong finish over 6f in September. Ran to a similar level at Chelmsford in November and now 1lb lower for return. May need the run and an extra furlong would be ideal.

Form: 242313-

Terri Rules¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Shelley Birkett| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 58| CD

9/1

Last two wins have come over this C&D and now 3lb lower. Below that in latest three AW starts and while she could easily bounce back on a return to here, she remains hard to predict.

Form: 758-486

(6)

Mother of Dragons^v¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Josephine Gordon| T: P S McEntee| OR: 55| C

9/2

2lb lower than sole win from 36 starts which came over 6f here. Proving inconsistent this year and drop in trip and rise in class leaves her as one to oppose.

Form: 3-49759

Forecasts

Wiff Waff (2/1), Mother of Dragons (9/2), Sir Hector (5/1), Princess Keira (11/2), Grandfather Tom (6/1), Terri Rules (9/1), Point Zero (9/1)

WIFF WAFF is a reliable performer on a decent mark over a C&D that is ideal. Grandfather Tom will also appreciate a return to this track and is easing in the weights. Sir Hector has to prove himself in these conditions but is unlikely to be far away.
