Fantasy Believer¹¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: K Shoemark| T: C Hills| OR: 86| BF| CD

8/1

C&D winner in November. Fifth of 6 in handicap back here (6/4) when last seen 119 days ago. He'll probably find one or two too good on this occasion.

Form: 029155-

Flaming Spear^b¹⁴⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 9-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: D K Ivory| OR: 84| CD

14/1

C&D winner. Below par fifth of 9 in handicap (11/2) at Chelmsford City (8f), unsuited by way race developed. Off 146 days and record when fresh suggests that this may not be the day to lend support.

Form: 005635-

(3)

Battered^v1¹⁹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: M Crehan⁽⁵⁾| T: H Palmer| OR: 83

18/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2017. 4/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Chester (7f, good), slowly away. Off 6 months ahead of this debut for new yard and now tried in a visor.

Form: 08/6579-

(6)

Silver Samurai¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: B A Curtis| T: M Botti| OR: 83| D

5/2

Good third of 10 in handicap (11/1) at this C&D 14 days ago, not clear run. Has to be taken seriously off the same mark.

Form: 4/2146-3

(7)

Silver Dust³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 81| BF| CD

16/1

C&D winner. Three wins from 9 runs last year. Fifth of 7 in handicap (10/3) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 35 days ago. Minor place money is probably the best he can hope for.

Form: 40-7225

(4)

Thrill Seeker^b,t⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Liam Jones| T: W J Haggas| OR: 80| CD

7/2

C&D winner in February. 11/4, good second of 6 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 8 days ago, slowly away. Should be on the premises once more.

Form: 1-22212

(8)

Flying West¹⁶⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 79| BF| D

7/1

Three wins from 6 runs last year, the latest at Yarmouth in October. 3/1, respectable second of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy). Claims if fully tuned-up for this seasonal reappearance.

Form: 165112-

(11)

Tommy Rock^t²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: L P Keniry| T: C G Cox| OR: 77| CD

11/1

C&D winner in February. Good fourth of 11 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 28 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Should go close off the same mark in what is likely to be a strongly-run race.

Form: 40-7144

(9)

Pitchcombe^p²³³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: George Rooke⁽³⁾| T: P R Chamings| OR: 76| C| D

25/1

7/1, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Bath (8f, good to soft) on final start for Clive Cox last summer. Resumes for new yard on a 2 lb higher mark and more will be needed.

Form: 132/031-

(1)

Nick Vedder¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: Marco Ghiani⁽³⁾| T: R Brisland| OR: 72| D

14/1

Eighth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (14/1) 14 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 252528

(5)

Mabre¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Darragh Keenan| T: P D Evans| OR: 72| CD

18/1

C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year, the latest at Newcastle in December. 50/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 16 days ago. Readily passed over.

Form: 1-25097

Forecasts

Silver Samurai (5/2), Thrill Seeker (7/2), Flying West (7/1), Fantasy Believer (8/1), Tommy Rock (11/1), Nick Vedder (14/1), Flaming Spear (14/1), Silver Dust (16/1), Mabre (18/1), Battered (18/1), Pitchcombe (25/1)

The vote in this competitive handicap goes to TOMMY ROCK, who hit the target over C&D 3 starts back and did well under the circumstances when fourth back here last time. He should go close granted a strong pace to aim at. Silver Samurai was denied a clear run at a crucial stage on his return a fortnight ago and is second choice ahead of the consistent Thrill Seeker.
