Lauberhorn Rocket^t,v1¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Charlie Price⁽⁵⁾| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 58

14/1

Narrow win at Chelmsford but both career wins have been on the AW and three runs on turf have yet to convince that this is his surface.

Form: 13-0610

(7)

Star Of Athena^t¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: K T O'Neill| T: A Stronge| OR: 57| D

7/2

Sole success was on the AW last autumn and hit and miss on the turf to date. Well treated if able to eke out the required improvement.

Form: 4-65753

(2)

Hidden Depths^p,h1,t²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: L P Keniry| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 55

10/3

Still a maiden but best run for a while when close third over 2m1f here last time. Travelled well so the drop in trip may not be a concern, but has to prove that wasn't now a one-off.

Form: 0482-03

(5)

Homing Star^p⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: S W Kelly| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 50

7/1

Won at Ffos Las in 2018 but while he hasn't looked like doubling his tally since. last run offered a bit more and can go well for a stable among the winners.

Form: 7310/56

(3)

Earthly^b,t²³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Joey Haynes| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 47| C

4/1

Gained first win since 2017 when landing a bit of a gamble over 2m1f here last month (Hidden Depths third). Just 2lb higher and can go well if in the same form.

Form: 4656-41

(6)

Sinndarella²³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: Raul Da Silva| T: Sarah Hollinshead| OR: 45

4/1

Twice runner-up from four visits here but behind a couple of these last time and stable continuing to go through a quiet spell.

Form: 335-355

(8)

Vexillum^p,t²⁸²

Age: 11| Weight: 8-8| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 45| D

50/1

Veteran who has been absent since October and last win in any code was in 2016. Stable appear to hold better claims with Hidden Depths.

Snow Leopard^b¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: Sophie Ralston⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45

18/1

His fourth of 10 over 1m4f at Kempton in January was probably the pick of his efforts but yet to build on that and others make more appeal.

Form: 6-84675

(9)

Leodis^b1⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 8-8| J: J P Fahy| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 45| D

66/1

Won at Redcar in 2018 but it's been all downhill since and has failed to beat a single rival on last five runs. Rare runner for trainer here but not hard to look elsewhere.

Form: 900-080

(1)

Shadow's Girl^p¹²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-8| J: Gavin Ashton⁽⁷⁾| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 45

40/1

Gained second win over hurdles at Chepstow in November but Flat form has offered very little and makes little appeal from 9lb out of the weights.

Form: 85780/0-

Weight: 9-10| Age: 8

Forecasts

Hidden Depths (10/3), Star Of Athena (7/2), Earthly (4/1), Sinndarella (4/1), Searching (13/2), Homing Star (7/1), Lauberhorn Rocket (14/1), Snow Leopard (18/1), Shadow's Girl (40/1), Vexillum (50/1), Leodis (66/1)

SEARCHING is in good heart under both codes right now and this drop in class may enable him to get back in the winners enclosure in this sphere. Homing Star offered a bit more last time and along with Hidden Depths may give the selection most to do.
