Plansina^h¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: David Probert| T: A Wintle| OR: 60| CD

9/2

Won 12-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 5/2) 14 days ago by neck from City Escape, cosily. That was her third C&D success and she should make a bold bid for a fourth, despite going up 4 lb.

Form: 662531

Janus^v¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: William Carver⁽³⁾| T: S Hodgson| OR: 59| D

15/2

Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (11/4) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 18 days ago, finishing with running left. 0-14 on turf (Flat and hurdles) and he may again have to settle for a minor role.

Form: 6444/14

Diamond Jill^b¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: T E Whelan| T: Sarah Hollinshead| OR: 58

16/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 16/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, good to firm) 18 days ago, slowly away. Evidence suggests that she's more of a force on the AW.

Form: 21-3476

City Escape^b,e/s¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Ray Dawson| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 58| D

6/1

Latest win at Ripon in June. Creditable neck second of 12 to Plansina in handicap (10/3) at this C&D (good to firm) 14 days ago. 1 lb better off with that rival now and she has to enter calculations.

Form: 271712

Accrington Stanley^h,t¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Paul George| OR: 58| C

9/2

Winner here in June (sole success from 29 Flat runs). Fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (8f, good to firm, 4/1) 14 days ago. Back up in trip and he needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 5-73514

(9)

Moonlit Cloud²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: S Donohoe| T: D K Ivory| OR: 58

7/1

15/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Significantly up in trip and others make more appeal from a win point of view.

Form: 555-035

(10)

Too Shy Shy^p⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 49| CD

11/2

4/1, didn't need to improve to win 8-runner minor event at this C&D (good to firm) 7 days ago. Looks vulnerable under a penalty back in handicap company.

Form: 445541

Dawn Tapper^t¹⁷²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽⁵⁾| T: Joe Ponting| OR: 51WS

50/1

Pulled up in juvenile hurdle at Kempton (16f, heavy) on NH debut when last seen 172 days ago. Latest effort in this sphere was poor, too, and he's passed over. Has undergone wind surgery.

Patroon^p²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: D J Coakley| OR: 48

20/1

22/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, 3¾ lengths third of 10 to Janus in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 23 days ago. Something to find on form.

Form: 55398-3

Mr Rumbalicious^h³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: L P Keniry| T: A King| OR: 57

15/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 40/1) 30 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Has to be taken seriously.

Form: 607-05

(3)

Nazimova^h1,t1³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: George Rooke| T: H Morrison| OR: 55

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 7 in handicap (25/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 30 days ago. Needs to leave that form well behind if she's to make an impact here with a hood/tongue strap applied.

Form: 67-87

Forecasts

Accrington Stanley (9/2), Plansina (9/2), Too Shy Shy (11/2), City Escape (6/1), Moonlit Cloud (7/1), Janus (15/2), Mr Rumbalicious (15/2), Diamond Jill (16/1), Midgetonamission (16/1), Patroon (20/1), Nazimova (25/1), Can't Stop Now (33/1), Dawn Tapper (50/1)

MR RUMBALICIOUS took a step forward when fifth upped to this trip on the all-weather at Lingfield handicap last time, catching the eye with his finishing effort. This track is likely to be more suitable and he should get a stronger pace to aim at this time, so there's a good chance that he will raise his game another notch. City Escape was just touched off by Plansina over C&D a fortnight ago and a 1 lb pull may be enough for her to turn the tables this time and emerge as the main danger.
