Captain Corelli¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: G Lee| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 65| CD

11/4

C&D winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Pontefract in August. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good, 2/1) 19 days ago, weakening final 1f. Eased in class now (won this 12 months ago) and he's not out of things.

Form: 124-714

Hildenley^t²⁷⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 57| DWS

14/1

Ended last season on Flat with success over 8.3f at Hamilton in September. Minor promise to glean from exploits in trio of novice/maiden hurdles thereafter and interesting what the market makes of him returning from 9 months off/wind op.

11/2

Bit below form third of 7 in handicap (13/2) at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm) 57 days ago, beaten by a pair ridden with more restraint. Now operating from a career-low mark dropping back markedly in trip and not entirely dismissed. Tongue tie added.

Form: 4-68673

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: B A Curtis| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 51

Forecasts

Simulation Theory (9/4), Methinks (9/4), Bankawi (9/4), Captain Corelli (11/4), Wakey Wakey (11/2), Caballero (8/1), Mr Coco Bean (8/1), Bashful (12/1), Hildenley (14/1)

This looks wide open and it may pay to take a chance on top-weight BASHFUL. He needs to keep the tardy starts at bay but appeals as being on a workable mark on the pick of this season's efforts and first-time cheekpieces could just put an extra edge on him. Bankawi (also engaged Catterick Tuesday) arrives in good order and looks sure to go well again, with Wakey Wakey and Methinks completing the shortlist.
