Peter The Great²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: J Mitchell| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 92| D

8/11

Looked smart prospect when winning maiden/novice on 2 of his first 3 starts. Disappointing in pair of handicaps after, including on return at Pontefract 24 days ago. Worth another chance.

Form: 1215-6

Arij^h,t¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 92| D

66/1

Progressive on all-weather early last season for the Crisfords but hasn't shown aptitude for hurdling in 2 starts for this yard. Probably best watched returned to the Flat.

Form: 232213-

Possible Man²⁰²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: R Kingscote| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 88| D

16/5

Didn't really kick on from last season's Nottingham win but things went against him when last seen at York and he looks the type to improve at 4 yrs, so merits consideration.

Form: 241250-

Harswell Duke²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Rowan Scott| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 84

9/1

Won at Musselburgh last season for Liam Bailey. 25/1, first run for new yard when respectable fifth of 16 in handicap at Redcar (8f, soft) 25 days ago. Up in trip. Makes tapeta debut.

Form: 0/4123-5

Ghost Rider¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: S Donohoe| T: James Horton| OR: 80| BF| C

11/2

Course winner. First run since leaving Mark Johnston when creditable second of 8 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 15/8) 11 days ago, nearest at the finish after switching 1f out. Remains unexposed at the trip.

Form: 37242-2

Forecasts

Peter The Great (8/11), Possible Man (16/5), Ghost Rider (11/2), Harswell Duke (9/1), Arij (66/1)

GHOST RIDER was unlucky not to make a winning return at Wolverhampton earlier this month and looks likely to progress further over middle distances. Peter The Great is on a lenient mark if recapturing last season's exciting form, whilst Possible Man is the type that could make more impact this year.
