Age: 10| Weight: 9-13| J: R Kingscote| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 77| D

12/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 12/1) 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Not taken lightly.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Harry Davies⁽⁷⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 68| BF| C

9/2

Has stood up really well to a busy spell since joining this yard, landing a fifth win of 2022 when clinging on by a neck over 6f here on Saturday. Can't rule out in current mood but a 5 lb penalty certainly demands more and he's drawn widest.

Mick's Spirit⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Grace McEntee⁽³⁾| T: C Allen| OR: 71| D

9/4

9/4, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f) 41 days ago under Grace McEntee. Well on top on that occasion so even a 9 lb rise may not stop him, particularly as he's well drawn in 1.

Form: 4-43241

Forecasts

Mick's Spirit (9/4), Intervention (9/2), Red Walls (5/1), Tathmeen (7/1), Amazing Amaya (17/2), Scale Force (9/1), Outrage (12/1), Mutabaahy (14/1), Brazen Belle (25/1)

MICK'S SPIRIT won nicely clear under Grace McEntee at Lingfield last month and may be capable of following up from a handy inside stall. Red Walls is back below the mark he won from at Southwell at the start of the year so he's a possible threat along with multiple C&D scorer Mutabaahy.
