Mister Musicmaster²⁰⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 10-4| J: David Probert| T: R J Hodges| OR: 66| CD

12/1

Admirable veteran who has won 11-90 including four around here. Will handle the conditions but he is 4lb above his last winning mark and he tends to need a few runs following a layoff.

Form: 512320-

Johni Boxit^p¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: T E Whelan| T: B Barr| OR: 62| D

33/1

Sole win for Gaye Kelleway came in a Yarmouth seller and he is 5lb above that mark. Fit from an unsuccessful spell of hurdling and likes to help force the pace.

Form: 162623-

Accomplice³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Rob Hornby| T: M Blanshard| OR: 61| CD

5/1

C&D winner off today's mark who generally gives a good account in this grade, although she has disappointed on her last two starts. Can be too keen so the prospect of a good gallop here is a positive.

Form: 0-52276

Gloweth²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: M Dwyer| T: W S Kittow| OR: 60

7/2

Claims on some of her 2018 form including a close fourth to the useful Sir Thomas Gresham at Windsor (6f, soft). Not at her best in two starts since and the response to pressure last time was most disappointing.

Form: 42948-8

(13)

Freckles¹⁵⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Tyler Saunders⁽⁷⁾| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 60

9/2

Has some smart winners in her pedigree and she showed clear promise on her latest start. Looks the type to do better now handicapping and this new trip ought to be her minimum. Stable 7-25 here since 2014.

Form: 063-

(11)

Brockagh Cailin¹⁰⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: J Mitchell| T: J S Moore| OR: 59

17/2

Form has an inconsistent look about it and she needs to run to the level shown at Kempton on her penultimate start to have any chance. Beaten 20L on sole turf outing.

Form: P450-45

(7)

Princess Way^v¹⁸¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: Paul George| OR: 59| CD

8/1

Rattled off a hat-trick of wins on fast ground last summer including one over C&D. Reasonably weighted but likely to need this after six months off.

Form: 401119-

(5)

Rocksette¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Hector Crouch| T: G & J Moore| OR: 53

11/2

1-14 on turf and placed a further eight times. Sole victory came over 1m2f and 4lb higher in the weights for a contest over a trip that looks inadequate.

Form: 33417-5

(9)

Swift Justice^v⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: R Kingscote| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 64

16/1

Highly tried over a longer trip last time, but there is still little to recommend him on his previous form.

Form: 55902-9

(10)

Aye Aye Skipper¹⁶⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: K O Cunningham-Brown| OR: 50| CD

16/1

C&D winner who was placed twice in similar company here last season off higher marks. Interesting rider booking if fit and ready following a break.

Form: 224363-

(1)

Anonymous Blonde²⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Nicola Currie| T: P D Evans| OR: 58

50/1

Has beaten a total of four rivals in as many starts. Finished 22L behind the winner on handicap debut and makes little appeal on return from an eight month break.

Form: 0090-

(6)

Eugenic¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: F Norton| T: Mrs Tracey Barfoot-Saunt| OR: 45| C| D

33/1

Triple winner for Rod Millman but has gone almost three years without a win. Only beat one rival on return from an 18 month absence and more evidence required that he retains ability.

Form: 42372/0

Lieutenant Conde⁸⁴

Weight: 9-1| Age: 3

T: H Morrison J: Charlie Bennett

Forecasts

Gloweth (7/2), Lieutenant Conde (7/2), Freckles (9/2), Accomplice (5/1), Rocksette (11/2), Princess Way (8/1), Brockagh Cailin (17/2), Mister Musicmaster (12/1), Aye Aye Skipper (16/1), Swift Justice (16/1), Johni Boxit (33/1), Eugenic (33/1), Anonymous Blonde (50/1)

Most of these are accompanied with a list of doubts but Lieutenant Conde has few miles on the clock and the way he was running on last time suggests there is a minor race to be won with him. Freckles is another lightly raced sort who should not be long in winning and a market move for this nicely bred filly would be noteworthy. Rocksette is rarely far away but may need further and preference is for ACCOMPLICE who rarely runs a bad race here and who is also on her last winning mark. She is pace dependant but there are a few possible front-runners in this and she looks worth chancing at a decent price.
