9/2

Not the force of old and losing run on the Flat goes back to 2015 though is relatively lightly raced on the AW and does have a good record in the past under this jockey.

Paintball Wizard²²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Charlie Bennett| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 58

25/1

Just the three maiden runs and best effort latest when 10L second of five in very weak contest at Nottingham. That form has taken several knocks and now switches to AW for handicap debut. Could be more to come.

Form: 542-

Lilypad¹⁸⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Gabriele Malune⁽³⁾| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 56

25/1

Showed a modicum of ability when with James Fanshawe but has regressed since switching yards and pulled up when last seen over hurdles in December.

Form: 335/666-

Que Quieres⁸⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: S Dow| OR: 55| CD

5/2

Hold up performer who improved when going up to this trip and built up a consistent record during the winter at this venue. Career best when staying second when last seen here in March and his consistent record makes him of plenty of interest here.

Form: 314-162

Hattaab^p²³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-1| J: K T O'Neill| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 52

33/1

Glimmer of ability on the Flat and best form to date is over hurdles. Cheekpices, worn before over hurdles, now tried in this sphere and they need to bring about some improvement.

Form: 08435/0-

Waterproof^p¹⁰⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: S W Kelly| T: S L Keightley| OR: 51

16/5

Improved form last autumn over shorter when fitted with headgear and if coping with this longer trip should be a contender. Won over hurdles since then at Fakenham and last run can be ignored as he bled from the nose.

Form: 952952-

(6)

Rgeebee¹⁰²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: S A Gray| T: D O'Meara| OR: 49

20/1

Best run when third in a maiden last run in February but that was a very weak race (1/4 favourite withdrawn at start). Yet to race beyond 1m2f so stamina to prove but lightly raced so open to improvement.

Form: 8-02

(9)

Gibraltarian^p¹⁷⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Charles Bishop| T: J R Boyle| OR: 47

9/1

Yet to reach the frame in six starts at up to 1m4f. Gave impression on latest that she is worth a go at this longer distance which gives hope for improvement.

Form: 577006-

Thecornishbarron²²³

Age: 8| Weight: 8-8| J: J P Fahy| T: A Sadik| OR: 45

150/1

Placed last year at shorter when with Brian Ellison but showed nothing on two runs for this yard and late in the day to be trying this longer distance.

Form: 228000-

(8)

Ocean Reach²⁸¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: A Mullen| T: R J Price| OR: 45

40/1

12 race maiden though better efforts when stepped up to 1m4f at Chepstow last summer and could improve again for this extra 2f though she does need to.

Form: 045635-

(2)

Sea Sister⁹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: J Fanning| T: O Murphy| OR: 45

15/2

Lightly raced, but on all evidence to date is one of the lesser lights from this yard and needs this step up in trip to bring about the improvement required from 4lb out of the handicap.

Form: 80/0-85

Forecasts

Que Quieres (5/2), Waterproof (16/5), Norab (9/2), Sea Sister (15/2), Gibraltarian (9/1), Rgeebee (20/1), Marshall Aid (20/1), Lilypad (25/1), Paintball Wizard (25/1), Hattaab (33/1), Ocean Reach (40/1), Thecornishbarron (150/1)

For a lowly rated horse QUE QUIERES is tremendously consistent and this course and trip have brought out the best in him and a repeat of a few of his runs here in the winter should see him come out on top. Waterproof is up in trip but if staying has to be a contender for a yard who has hit the ground running since racing came back, and Rgeebee could be best of the rest.
