(1)

Mahanakhon Power^t,v¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: R Menzies| OR: 61| D

8/1

15/2, good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (15.8f, good) 18 days ago. Below par latest start in this sphere at Catterick last month, but couldn't rule out off this reduced mark.

Form: 3129-46

(3)

Masque Of Anarchy¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: O McSweeney⁽⁵⁾| T: Craig Lidster| OR: 59| CD

8/1

C&D winner. 7/1, below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Just 1 lb above last winning mark, but looks vulnerable from a win point of view all the same.

Form: 1166-37

(11)

Divine Comedy²¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: J Mitchell| T: C F Wall| OR: 59

11/2

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 14 in handicap at Leicester (10f, heavy, 16/1). Off 7 months and it's probably best to look elsewhere on this occasion.

Form: 056646-

Dr Rio¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: P J McDonald| T: P T Midgley| OR: 59

7/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2019. Below form sixth of 12 in handicap (14/1) at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Mark on the slide, but he needs to bounce back in a major way.

Form: 60570-6

(7)

Willing To Please¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: W Buick| T: P A Kirby| OR: 58

17/2

11/2, creditable third of 13 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, good) 13 days ago. Up in trip (shapes as though she'll stay) and yet to strike on the AW, but she's on a fair mark and booking of William Buick is a plus.

Form: 174-043

(9)

Poster Child³⁵⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: S H James| T: K Frost| OR: 58| D

33/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable eighth of 15 in handicap (6/1) at Cork (10.1f, good to soft). Off 11 months ahead of this first run for new yard/AW debut and market should point the way. Yard also saddles Hart Fell.

Form: 218/078-

(8)

Cusack^p¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Connor Beasley| T: D Thompson| OR: 57| CD

6/4

C&D winner. Latest win here in March. 7/2, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, good) 15 days ago. Big player returned to the AW (2-5 on artificial surfaces) off the same mark.

Form: 1-32413

(10)

Hart Fell¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: P Mulrennan| T: K Frost| OR: 52

12/1

13/2, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 11 days ago. Eased 2 lb and, if able to build on that effort, he could have a part to play.

Form: 50/7-305

(12)

Iron Sheriff¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Tom Marquand| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 49

18/1

One win from 25 Flat runs. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at this C&D (6/1) 11 days ago. Another minor role is the most likely scenario.

Form: 76-0403

(4)

Turbulent Power^t¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Faye McManoman⁽³⁾| T: B Rothwell| OR: 47

40/1

Only ninth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (22/1) 11 days ago, merely closing up late, and she's likely to come up short once more.

Form: 685309

(13)

Rose Of Lancashire⁶¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: S A Gray| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 45

40/1

Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs. Seventh of 10 in minor event (9/1) at Southwell (12.1f) 61 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 0-34277

(5)

Little Chance⁵⁹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: A Elliott| T: S G West| OR: 45

150/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 12 in nursery at this course (7.1f, 66/1) when last seen 19 months ago. Significantly up in trip and she looks set for another struggle.

Form: 05380/

(6)

Sugarpiehoneybunch^p²³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Aiden Brookes⁽⁷⁾| T: S G West| OR: 45

50/1

Tenth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 80/1) 23 days ago. Significantly up in trip and, like stablemate Little Chance, she makes very limited appeal.

Form: 0709-90

Forecasts

Cusack (6/4), Divine Comedy (11/2), Dr Rio (7/1), Mahanakhon Power (8/1), Masque Of Anarchy (8/1), Willing To Please (17/2), Hart Fell (12/1), Iron Sheriff (18/1), Poster Child (33/1), Turbulent Power (40/1), Rose Of Lancashire (40/1), Sugarpiehoneybunch (50/1), Little Chance (150/1)

The one who appeals most is CUSACK, who looks pretty solid in the context of this race and his form figures on the all-weather read 13241. The 4-y-o lost little caste upped to 1½m off this mark at Thirsk recently and the return to this trip is no bad thing. Willing To Please shapes as though this new trip will be within range and he is feared most with William Buick doing the steering. Hart Fell also enters calculations.
