Imperium^p⁴⁰

3/1

Six wins from 18 Flat runs. 9/2, respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 40 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Has fallen back down to last winning mark now and he's not out of things on balance.

Withhold^v⁴⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-0| J: T E Whelan| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 93| D

9/1

Veteran. Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Eleventh of 13 in handicap at Kempton (2m, 11/1) 40 days ago, hanging right 2f out and weakening final 1f. Visor replaces cheekpieces now but others arrive with more pressing claims.

Solent Gateway^p,t⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: R Coakley| T: H Palmer| OR: 91

8/1

Ran right up to best when solid third in last year's Northumberland Plate prior to seemingly finding extended 20f trip too taxing at Goodwood final start. Had wind op, shaped as if needing first start for 5 months at Southwell (16.4f) 8 days ago. May well step up a good deal on that.

Barenboim^h⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: D O'Meara| OR: 90

1/1

Thrived on AW upon joining present yard, his turn of foot again proving decisive as he added a fourth success to his tally at Lingfield (12f) 9 days ago. Interesting connections opt for a marked step up in trip now and he's well worth a second look.

Mukha Magic^b,t⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: Saffie Osborne| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 79

6/1

Tasted success 5 times during a fruitful 2022 and better for a recent run when landing 13-runner handicap (6/1) at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 9 days ago, well positioned. This tougher back up in grade but he's a likeable sort who should give another good account.

Forecasts

Barenboim (1/1), Imperium (3/1), Mukha Magic (6/1), Pistoletto (13/2), Solent Gateway (8/1), Withhold (9/1), Protected Guest (10/1)

BARENBOIM has taken his form up a level following a wind op/yard switch, again displaying a potent turn of foot to gain a fourth career success over shorter at Lingfield 9 days ago. It's interesting connections now opt to step him up in trip and he looks a big player once more. The likeable Mukha Magic and Imperium may emerge as the pair to give him most to think about.
