Madeeh^t¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 85| D

5/4

Arrives on a roll, completing the 4-timer in good style at Newcastle (12.5f) last month. Up 5 lb now but partnered by another promising apprentice and another bold showing likely on the cards.

Form: 4-51111

Raymond¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Garritty⁽³⁾| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 80

5/1

Winner at Newcastle in February. Eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle (8/1) at Musselburgh (16.4f, good) 11 days ago. Makes handicap debut and not ruled out.

Ship Of The Fen^p¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: P J McDonald| T: Ian Williams| OR: 75

9/2

150/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 17 days ago. That was his first start for 12 months and whilst this longer trip should suit, he's tough to assess at present.

Form: 843/66-8

El Salvaje^p²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: L Morris| T: D M Simcock| OR: 71| C

9/4

Opened account over 10f here in October. 7/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 25 days ago, albeit never a threat. Still, not ruled out.

Form: 521-965

Forecasts

Madeeh (5/4), El Salvaje (9/4), Ship Of The Fen (9/2), Raymond (5/1)

MADEEH arrives on a roll, completing the 4-timer in comfortable fashion at Newcastle 11 days ago and he's worth siding with to continue the fine work and come out on top again. Raymond is next best ahead of El Salvaje.
