Grey D'Ars⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: J Fanning| T: N P Littmoden| OR: 68| BF

Embrace The Moment^p³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Ian Williams| OR: 68

11/1

Shaped as if back in form when creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 6/1) 37 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Must enter calculations back up in trip.

Form: 523855-

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Elisha Whittington⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 68| CD

Coqueta⁷¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 70

16/1

Split a pair of subsequent winners over C&D on penultimate run but proved to be a disappointment at Southwell last time. Makes handicap debut, and may yet do better.

Form: 333-

(2)

Man Of Light⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 70

33/1

(5)

Nicks Not Wonder³⁶⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Shepherd| T: J A Osborne| OR: 70

28/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 10 in novice event (7/2) at Wolverhampton (8.6f), needing stiffer test. Off 12 months but remains with potential making handicap debut up in trip.

(9)

Torbellino^h⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: A Kirby| T: J R Best| OR: 67| D

12/1

Form: 96375-0

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: A King| OR: 68

Form: 43/7704-

(1)

Aldrich Bay¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: S W Kelly| T: W J Knight| OR: 68| BF| D

2/1

One win from 3 runs last year. Creditable third of 12 in handicap (5/4) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 18 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Back up in trip. On the upgrade recently.

Form: 660/213-

Forecasts

Aldrich Bay (2/1), My Boy Sepoy (9/2), Grey D'Ars (15/2), Be Fair (10/1), Embrace The Moment (11/1), Thanielle (11/1), Torbellino (12/1), Coqueta (16/1), Twpsyn (18/1), Nicks Not Wonder (28/1), Stormbomber (33/1), Man Of Light (33/1), Ilhabela Fact (100/1), Lost History (100/1)

MY BOY SEPOY is on a handy mark and looked unlucky not to win here on his penultimate run, so he's given another chance having not been ideally placed at Newcastle last time. Aldrich Bay is on an upward trajectory so needs taking seriously, with Coqueta and Embrace The Moment others to consider.
