Alminoor¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Hart| T: I Furtado| OR: 84| CD

6/1

C&D winner. Two wins from 4 runs last year. Latest win here in October. Creditable third of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 11/1) 19 days ago. Should give another good account.

Form: 118-333

One Hart¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Oliver Stammers⁽⁵⁾| T: J Ferguson| OR: 84| D

2/1

9/4, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 15 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Spring Romance, keeping on well. Excellent claims once again.

Form: 03-4121

(7)

Theotherside¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon| OR: 83

18/1

Sixth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 12/1) 11 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Others make more appeal.

Form: 21367-6

(9)

Fighting Temeraire^h1²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: George Downing| T: D K Ivory| OR: 83| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Good third of 11 in handicap (25/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 26 days ago, never nearer. Hood on 1st time. Makes plenty of appeal.

Form: 4293-53

(3)

Apollinaire²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: R P Downey| T: R M Beckett| OR: 83| BF

9/2

Lightly-raced winner. Eighth of 10 in handicap (3/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 21 days ago, doing too much too soon. Looks on a good mark based on 2-y-o form, so still one to be interested in.

Form: 1222/8

(2)

Amber Island²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: D Loughnane| OR: 80| D

9/2

Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 9/1, good second of 6 in minor event at this C&D 23 days ago, having run of race. Has to be taken seriously.

Form: 91-5242

Forecasts

One Hart (2/1), Amber Island (9/2), Apollinaire (9/2), Royal Dynasty (11/2), Alminoor (6/1), Spring Romance (6/1), Fighting Temeraire (11/1), Luna Magic (18/1), Theotherside (18/1)

ONE HART is better than ever since joining his current stable and, with his latest success proving strong form, he's taken to go in again from an ideal draw. Amber Island is an obvious danger, while Fighting Temeraire caught the eye on his latest outing, so he could make an impression if the pace is strong.
