Mountain Brave²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 68

3/1

Shown decent form on all three starts in novice company including when 3L third in a six runner 6f event at Newcastle last time out. One for the shortlist stepping back up in distance on handicap debut.

Form: 2-43

(2)

Barbelo¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle| T: R Spencer| OR: 67

4/1

Finished third on her two most recent starts including when beaten 5L over 5f at Southwell last time out. Worth a check in the market stepping up in trip on handicap debut.

Form: 7-33

(5)

Velma³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Paula Muir⁽⁵⁾| T: C W Fairhurst| OR: 67

8/1

Showed ability on first two starts but was beaten 6L when seventh in a 1m novice race at Newcastle just over a month ago. Making her handicap debut and market support would be notable dropping in distance.

Form: 43-7

(6)

Magnificia^h1¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 67

14/1

Failed to replicate her good 6L second at York (7f, good-to-firm) last July in two starts this winter including when fifth over this trip at Lingfield last time out. Wears a hood for the first time on debut in handicap company.

Form: 028-5

(3)

Sound Mixer^p¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Georgia Cox⁽³⁾| T: W J Haggas| OR: 66| BF

7/2

Finished runner-up on both handicap starts to date including when beaten a neck over 6f at Newcastle last time out. Races off a 1lb higher mark here and is a leading contender stepping up in trip.

Form: 044-22

(8)

Lakeview^t1²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Kingscote| T: D Loughnane| OR: 66

3/1

Beaten 4L when finishing sixth of nine in a handicap over 6f at this venue last time out. Likely more needed with a tongue tie worn for the first time if he's to take this race on his first attempt at this distance.

Form: 9626-6

(9)

Lili Wen Fach^b¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: J Mitchell| T: R J Price| OR: 60

33/1

Returning from a break when finishing 5L third in a 6f claimer here last month. Changed stables since and blinkers worn for the first time that day are retained stepping back up in trip.

Form: 58638-3

Drew Breeze¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: A Mullen| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 57

100/1

Struggled in three starts since joining this stable including when last of ten over an extended 1m here on handicap debut last month. Others make more appeal.

Form: 7-900

Eglish²¹

Forecasts

Eglish (11/4), Mountain Brave (3/1), Lakeview (3/1), Sound Mixer (7/2), Barbelo (4/1), Velma (8/1), Magnificia (14/1), Lili Wen Fach (33/1), Drew Breeze (100/1)

EGLISH has been in great form so far this year and with a good draw here she is taken to defy a 9lb rise for her C&D victory last time out to complete her hat-trick in this competitive looking handicap. Sound Mixer ran well when placed over shorter last time out and she is capable of finishing runner-up ahead of Mountain Brave who is tackling this distance for the first time on her handicap debut.
