7/4

Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this course (8f, 7/2) 19 days ago. Ought to remain competitive after a 6 lb rise.

Form: 0354-21

(2)

Doctor Grace¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: N G McCullagh| T: M Halford| OR: 63| CD

10/3

Placed twice this winter prior to deservedly getting her head in front in a C&D handicap 12 days ago, well on top finish. Hit with a 9 lb rise for that still much respected.

Form: 8092-31

Forecasts

Malacanne (7/4), Doctor Grace (10/3), Anann (5/1), Bitacora (11/2), Pub Talk (7/1), Bright Dick (14/1), Queen Of Ours (33/1)

If PUB TALK can recapture the form he showerd when runner-up here at the start of the year he might be up to resuming winning ways under Billy Lee. Doctor Grace has had a good spell over C&D this winter and is feared most ahead of Joseph O'Brien handicap newcomer Anann.
