Rare Groove³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: P J McDonald| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 98| C

6/4

Finished 4-y-o campaign on the up and, on the back of 19 months off he shaped encouragingly when runner-up in a C&D handicap early last month. Unexposed as a stayer and respected with a repeat.

Form: 10252/2

Caribeno^v²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 95| BF| CD

10/3

Typical improver in staying handicaps for this yard, making all to complete 6-timer at Lingfield (12f) on penultimate start. Third of 4 back there last time and more needed now new mark has kicked in.

Cosmelli^b³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: James Doyle| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 90| CD

4/1

Landed a C&D handicap last summer but more miss than hit subsequently, below best in trio of starts since the turn of the year. Blinkers replace usual visor.

Charlie D^p,t⁵¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Jane Elliott| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 89| D

20/1

Eight wins from 30 Flat runs. Visored for 1st time, last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f, 13/2) 51 days ago, beaten long way out. Visor quickly discarded and better showing not ruled out.

Form: 859-569

Frankenstella^p²¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 83| D

4/1

Promising sort. Three wins from 6 runs last year. 10/3, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at York (16.2f, good) in September, with bit in hand. Likely she has more to offer and sound claims.

Forecasts

Rare Groove (6/4), Caribeno (10/3), Cosmelli (4/1), Frankenstella (4/1), Charlie D (20/1)

FRANKENSTELLA was most progressive as a staying handicapper last season, signing off with a career-best display at York in September. There's potential for better still this season and she can come out on top again. Rare Groove proved he retains all of his ability when second on belated return over C&D recently and is feared, ahead of Charlie D.
