Dawaam¹⁷⁵

10/3

Progressive sort who made it 3 from 4 on AW in 10-runner C&D handicap (6/1) when last seen, pushed out. Off 175 days/had wind op. Still unexposed and expected to be bang there.

Form: 11/9551-

Tritonic⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A King| OR: 99

7/2

Useful efforts in defeat last season and similar form over hurdles this winter. Won't be lacking for fitness so needs considering on AW bow.

Form: 5/22624-

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: S De Sousa| T: A M Balding| OR: 96| D

5/1

Scored at York and Newbury last term and signed off with good second of 23 in November Handicap at Doncaster (1m4f). Versatile sort who shouldn't be dismissed on his return/AW bow.

Arij^t⁴⁰

7/2

C&D winner. Career best when winning 11-runner handicap (3/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 40 days ago, forging clear by 4¼ lengths. Hit with an 8 lb rise but still a likely player.

Form: 4-23221

Forecasts

Dawaam (10/3), Arij (7/2), Tritonic (7/2), Rhythmic Intent (5/1), Satono Japan (11/2), Habit Rouge (10/1), Pivoine (33/1)

DAWAAM boasts a progressive all-weather profile, winning with a bit up his sleeve over C&D in November, and looks set for another big run on his return. Tritonic is fit from hurdling (failed to meet expectations in the Triumph) and ran well in some decent events last season, so is another to consider along with impressive Wolverhampton winner Arij.
