15/2
Fifteen wins from 55 Flat runs. 13/2, didn't need to improve for latest of them in 6-runner handicap at Doncaster (6f, heavy) when last seen, battling well. Off 172 days and record fresh suggests he may just need this.

9/1
Fourteen runs since last win in 2021 but couldn't have come much closer when short-head second of 7 to Live In The Dream in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 17 days ago, just failing. Looks competitive on form.

5/2
Career best when winning 7-runner handicap (12/1) at Lingfield (5f, AW) 17 days ago by short head from Arecibo, all out. Was seen to good effect on that occasion but he's equally as effective on turf and can be tough to peg back if getting into a rhythm.

Admirable 9-y-o who enhanced his fine course record at Ripon when successful there in June. Mixed bag after and little to suggest in previous reappearance runs that he'll be fully up to speed.

Creditable second of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Newcastle (6f) 56 days ago. Hasn't been with this yard long but does need to improve to defy this mark.

Dual winner last season, including in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon (6f) in August. Didn't look comfortable on heavy ground on reappearance last week and now back at the minimum trip.

14/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (5f, heavy) when last seen in October. Still retains plenty of dash/enthusiasm but no surprise were he to need this.

Won 10-runner handicap at Doncaster (5f, heavy, 6/4) 9 days ago. Carries penalty and also 3 lb out of the weights but fit and in form, which may count for a lot.

Forecasts

Ey Up It's Maggie (2/1), Live In The Dream (5/2), King Of Bavaria (9/2), Clarendon House (7/1), Dakota Gold (15/2), Arecibo (9/1), Copper Knight (16/1), Intrinsic Bond (18/1), Justanotherbottle (28/1)

15:30 Pontefract - 11 April 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

The market will be informative with several of these making their reappearance but CLARENDON HOUSE was an excellent second first-time-out last season and having been highly tried as a 4-y-o, he has an appealing mark to work with. Live In The Dream and Arecibo finished first and second at Lingfield recently and are definite threats, while Ey Up It's Maggie demands consideration, even from out of the weights.
