Mcginty's Dream^t²⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: Grant Cockburn| T: N W Alexander| OR: 96| CD

4/1

Right back on song after wind op when landing 10-runner handicap chase over C&D 27 days ago, well on top finish having led last. Up 8 lb but sill on workable mark so leading claims.

Form: 84536-1

Just Georgie¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-2| J: Alexander Fielding⁽¹⁰⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 90| D

15/2

Only one win from 25 runs, and returned from 7 months off with poor tenth of 14 in handicap chase (25/1) at Sedgefield (21.1f) 19 days ago. Hard to warm to.

Form: 8/63P6-0

A Ladies Milan^p,t⁶⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Blair Campbell⁽³⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 90

7/2

Still without a win but not disgraced when third of 14 to Costly Dream in handicap chase over C&D last time. Considered.

Form: F56P-53

Costly Dream^t¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Young Jnr| OR: 81| CD

6/1

C&D winner in September who has continued in good form, third of 7 in 3m handicap chase at Ayr 11 days ago. Can make presence felt again off unchanged mark.

Form: 513243

Farran Dancer¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: William Shanahan⁽⁷⁾| T: R M Smith| OR: 81| D

40/1

Poor maiden chaser who showed little after 8 months off when pulled up in 3m handicap chase at Ayr 11 days ago. Very hard to enthuse over.

Form: 9/053P-P

Westend Theatre²⁸⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 10-5| J: Colm McCormack| T: Mrs J Walton| OR: 79| CD

16/1

Only one win from 21 runs but it came over C&D so veteran is not totally dismissed on return after 9 months off.

Form: 50/3142-

Commanding Spirit^p,t³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Billy Garritty⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 74| D

9/2

Modest maiden hurdler/chaser who (18/1) posted best effort when fourth of 14 in handicap chase over C&D last month. Dropped 2 lb so he's shortlisted.

Form: 7FPP-74

Rollerball Rocco²⁴³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: C J Todd| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 74| BF| D

5/1

Twelve runs since last win back in 2018, and he needs to hit the ground running after 8 months off if he's to make a mark on return.

Form: 3544P3-

Forecasts

A Ladies Milan (7/2), Mcginty's Dream (4/1), Commanding Spirit (9/2), Rollerball Rocco (5/1), Costly Dream (6/1), Slainte Mhor (7/1), Just Georgie (15/2), Too Wise Man (14/1), Westend Theatre (16/1), Farran Dancer (40/1)

MCGINTY'S DREAM looked revitalised by his off-season breathing op when a convincing scorer over C&D last month so is strongly fancied to defy a 8 lb rise and make it 2-2 for the season. Costly Dream arrives in good form and can also boast a C&D win so rates the chief threat, while A Ladies Milan appeals as a solid place prospect in a handicap where several have question marks against them.
