3/1

Eleventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 10/3). Off 180 days. Looked promising before that effort and is still relatively unexposed, so claims if ready to go on reappearance.

Keeper's Choice⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Tyler Heard⁽⁵⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 70| CD

13/8

Improved on recent efforts to win 13-runner handicap (7/2) at this C&D (good to firm) 8 days ago, soon clear. Warrants respect again despite hefty rise.

Form: 45-5431

Born To Destroy^v⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Hayley Turner| T: R Spencer| OR: 69

6/1

22/1 and visored for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 8 days ago, finding test too much. Better over shorter.

Form: 5-44864

Greek Kodiac^p,t¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Hollie Doyle| T: M L W Bell| OR: 68

7/2

Won 6-runner seller (4/6) at Redcar (7f, good to firm) 12 days ago, running on. Running consistently well and another bold bid seems likely.

Form: 226531

Blessed^p1¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Josephine Gordon| T: H Candy| OR: 61

9/1

Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (7f, 9/2) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has slipped to a workable mark and latest effort represents a step back in the right direction.

Form: 8397-74

28/1

33/1, 19¾ lengths twelfth of 13 to Keeper's Choice in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 8 days ago. Might strip fitter for that, and cheekpieces back on.

Forecasts

Keeper's Choice (13/8), Prize Fighting (3/1), Greek Kodiac (7/2), Never Said Nothing (11/2), Born To Destroy (6/1), Blessed (9/1), Air Of York (16/1), Itsallaboutluck (28/1)

GREEK KODIAC's mark hasn't been affected by his comfortable selling victory at Redcar 12 days ago, so he's worth chancing to follow up despite this stiffer competition. Fellow last-time-out winner Keeper's Choice is an obvious rival and Prize Fighting remains with potential.
