Mighty River³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan| T: J Tate| OR: 87| BF| D

9/2

Novice winner on third start at Wolverhampton in December and went the right way in handicaps during the winter, second of 6 on his last 2 starts. Looks well handicapped if he's as effective on turf,

Form: 313-122

(5)

There's The Door¹⁵⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Cosgrave| T: P D Evans| OR: 83

15/2

Haydock novice winner (7f) in July and signed off 2-y-o campaign with an excellent runner-up effort on first crack at 9f on the Rowley in October. Extra 1f ought to be within range on her return to action.

Form: 613442-

Cloudbreaker⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K Shoemark| T: C Fellowes| OR: 83

7/1

Stepped up on debut run when landing 7-runner novice at Newmarket in July. Reportedly lame after and given rest of 2022 off shaped quite well on February's return over 9.5f and the second and third that days have improved since. Retains scope now handicapping.

Form: 51-4

(9)

Forceful Speed¹⁵⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: K Stott| T: G Boughey| OR: 82| BF| D

7/2

Made a winning start in nurseries at Wolverhampton and put his experience and stamina to good use to double his tally at Pontefract (10f) in October. Just a fair fifth at Newmarket later that month and gelded ahead of this reappearance.

Form: 061215-

Demilion⁸⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Joanna Mason| T: C Johnston| OR: 81

9/1

Heavily backed when making a successful handicap debut over 9.5f at Wolverhampton in January. That form isn't anything to get excited by but he's in top hands and is open to progress switched to turf.

Form: 373-1

(7)

Nights Over Egypt¹⁶⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: P J McDonald| T: James Horton| OR: 78

11/1

Oasis Dream colt displayed definite signs of promise in a trio of novice events last summer and shaped well when third switched to a handicap at Pontefract in October, faring best of those ridden prominently. Isn't bred for middle distances but is in good hands.

Form: 4453-

(3)

Kadovar^t¹⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 78

7/2

Low-key debut but fitted with a tongue tie and much more like it when second at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) in October. Better than result at Kempton the following month and now up in trip for return for top stable.

Form: 926-

(8)

Nobody Told Me²¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 70

8/1

Glimmers of promise in a quartet of juvenile outings at up to 1m but opening mark looks very high unless he improves markedly for a gelding operation and this new trip.

Form: 8664-

Think First¹⁶⁷

Weight: 9-11| Age: 3

Forecasts

Forceful Speed (7/2), Kadovar (7/2), Mighty River (9/2), Cloudbreaker (7/1), There's The Door (15/2), Nobody Told Me (8/1), Demilion (9/1), Nights Over Egypt (11/1), Think First (12/1)

MIGHTY RIVER's AW form has a progressive look to it, and assuming he's as effective on turf, he looks the pick at the weights. Demilion should also have plenty more to offer, while Cloudbreaker's return on the AW looks pretty good form and she retains potential.
