Dromara King⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Finley Marsh⁽³⁾| T: R Hughes| OR: 73

7/2

Mayson colt who has shown ability all three starts finishing third on each occasion. Caught close home last two outings over a mile so drop in trip looks the right call and should be very much in the thick of it once again. Yard in flying form.

Form: 3-33

(2)

Rusper's Lad⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Mitchell| T: Tom Clover

3/1

Excelled himself on debut when close third at 66/1 in Yarmouth 6f novice stakes last may. Not seen for more than eight months but again showed ability when sixth over a mile here in January and is well worth a market check back at 7f now.

Form: 3-6

(5)

Dancing Feet¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Adam J McNamara| T: A Watson

1/1

Footstepsinthesand filly who had one fair run for David O'Meara then made winning bow for curent handler over 6f at Wolverhampton recently. Ran on strongly there and extra furlong here should be no problem. Still unexposed.

Form: 4-1

(6)

Dors Toyboy²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: M Dwyer| T: D K Ivory

14/1

10,000gns Dark Angel gelding out of Listed placed dam. Looked green over C&D on debut last month but was getting hang of things late on where stayed on to pass a few. Will know more and is worth a market check.

Form: 5

(9)

Yukon Thunder¹¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: Steph Hollinshead

100/1

£2,000 Night Of Thunder gelding who didn't show much at all on debut over 1m at LIngfield in November when well beaten. Looks to have a stiff task in this company.

Form: 0-

(1)

Confounding¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Hayley Turner| T: C Fellowes

33/1

Lethal Force filly out of winning miler. Fair effort when fourth on debut at Lingfield 6f last month but was well beaten over this trip there last time and needs to take a big step forward to prove competitive in this contest.

Form: 40

(3)

Pretty Packet⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Elisha Whittington⁽⁵⁾| T: J G Portman

100/1

Daughter of Style Vendome who looked fairly clueless when finishing a last of 10, beaten a long way over C&D seven weeks ago. Will probably need more time.

Form: 0

(4)

Princesse Animale⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Charlie Bennett| T: P Phelan

15/2

Big run on debut over a mile at Lingfield in September when finishing a length second, then solid third over C&D in January. Has ability and should win a race or two so enters calculations.

Form: 2-3

Non-Runners

Strange Brew⁸¹

Weight: 8-11| Age: 3

T: M J Attwater J: Gabriele Malune

Forecasts

Dancing Feet (1/1), Rusper's Lad (3/1), Dromara King (7/2), Princesse Animale (15/2), Dors Toyboy (14/1), Confounding (33/1), Strange Brew (66/1), Yukon Thunder (100/1), Pretty Packet (100/1)

The way DANCING FEET came away to score impressively last time suggested she may take some stopping here and she can follow up over the extra furlong. Dromara King could well prove dangerous having shown ability on all three starts, and Dors Toyboy may also figure having shown signs of ability on his racecourse debut. Rusper's Lad is another with a say in the argument having done well enough on both runs to date, and Princesse Animale has quite a bit going for her on what we've seen so far.
