Warrior's Valley^p,t¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Phil Dennis| T: D C Griffiths| OR: 62| CD

8/1

Triple C&D winner, the last of them when 9lb higher 11-months ago. Well below that level of form in all five starts so far in 2020, so continues to have plenty to prove.

Form: 4-34464

(3)

Jorvik Prince^h²^{(ex 5)}

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 59| BF| D

7/2

Prolific AW winner, all on either Chelmsford's Polytrack or Wolverhampton's Tapeta. Arrives in great form after scoring at the latter track. Has 5lb penalty to shoulder. Dam a dual winner here, so optimism he will act on the surface. Hooded. Claims.

Form: 070-151

(5)

Red Stripes^b⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Hart| T: L Williamson| OR: 59| CD

11/4

Triple C&D winner, all from lower marks than this. Held on his last two starts, both here, so needs to pull out more, but should again be competitive.

Form: 5-44123

Glacier Fox⁷⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Toby Eley⁽⁵⁾| T: M C Chapman| OR: 57

150/1

0-4 on AW, having scored on turf (1m2f) at Beverley last April when with Tom Tate. Well short of that level on his last three starts, when with Mark Loughnane. Changed hands for £1,200 in December and makes stable debut with plenty to prove.

Form: 598000-

Qaaraat²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 56| D

4/1

Scored on Newcastle's Tapeta (5f) in November, when on this mark. Has been running with credit, also from this mark, on his three most recent starts, including over this C&D. Should be thereabouts.

Form: 8-44223

(7)

Red Invader^p¹³

Age: 10| Weight: 9-1| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: J Butler| OR: 56| CD

25/1

Prolific AW winner, including once over C&D, and also here over 7f. Back below his last winning mark, but has been badly out of sorts just lately. Others preferred.

Form: 0978-59

(4)

Piazon^b,e/s²⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 9-1| J: Harrison Shaw⁽³⁾| T: Julia Brooke| OR: 56| CD

8/1

Six-time C&D winner, although the last of those came in November 2018. Has slipped to a 3lb lower mark now, having won just 1-20 (that win being on turf) since. Not easy to fancy on recent evidence.

Form: 32676-6

Final Legacy⁵^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: George Rooke⁽⁷⁾| T: D Shaw| OR: 47| CD

4/1

Aside from a blip at Newcastle on her penultimate start, she has shown improved form in her last three runs over this C&D, keeping on to break her duck last time in a 0-55 (front pair 1¾L clear). 5lb penalty makes it tougher but enters calculations.

Form: 48-2261

Forecasts

Red Stripes (11/4), Jorvik Prince (7/2), Final Legacy (4/1), Qaaraat (4/1), Amazing Amaya (6/1), Piazon (8/1), Warrior's Valley (8/1), Red Invader (25/1), Glacier Fox (150/1)

Plenty of C&D specialists makes this tricky for punters, but the suggestion is JORVIK PRINCE, who has his first run on this surface. However, pedigree suggests he can handle it, and he is unexposed and in-form. Amazing Amaya and Final Legacy can both go well for Derek Shaw, but may just come up short on class, while others of interest are Qaaraat and Red Stripes.
