Giuseppe Cassioli⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: M Dwyer| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 77| C

10/11

Fairly useful performer. Course winner. 7/2, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 9 days ago. Others make more appeal at the weights, but he shouldn't be too far away.

Form: 45242-3

Mudlahhim^t¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Mia Biggs⁽⁷⁾| T: K P De Foy| OR: 84| D

3/1

Useful gelding. Latest win at Kempton in August. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (9/2) 14 days ago. Obvious claims on these terms now eased in grade.

Form: 79163-4

Praise Of Shadows^h,t⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Tom Marquand| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 69| D

20/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2020. Eighth of 14 in handicap (50/1) at Newcastle (6f) 45 days ago. Hard to warm to.

150/1

Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in maiden (11/1) at Southwell (5f) 19 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and now tried in cheekpieces. Improvement needed.

Form: 36-

I Am A Dreamer²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: L Morris| T: C Wallis| OR: 73| D

6/1

Fairly useful gelding. Twenty runs since last win in 2020. 22/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 29 days ago. Definite chance on these terms if he puts his best foot forward.

Form: 302038-

Kodi Gold^t⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Gina Mangan⁽⁵⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 65

13/2

Fair gelding. Latest win at Kempton in November. Respectable second of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 7/2) 9 days ago, conceding first run. Work to do on these terms, but should run his race.

Forecasts

Giuseppe Cassioli (10/11), Mudlahhim (3/1), One Hart (5/1), I Am A Dreamer (6/1), Kodi Gold (13/2), Praise Of Shadows (20/1), Gossamer Silk (150/1)

MUDLAHHIM wasn't disgraced in a C&D handicap a fortnight ago and is likely to prove a tough nut to crack now down in grade. I Am A Dreamer is rather in-and-out nowadays, but there's no doubting his ability and he'll be a real threat if on a "going" day. Kodi Gold and One Hart can do battle for minor honours.
