Churchill Bay⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: T Eaves| T: Ronald Thompson| OR: 70

50/1

Returned to form on just his second start for current yard when third of 9 in handicap at Newcastle and wasn't ideally placed at Southwell next time. Not completely dismissed.

Form: 804-036

Viva Voce¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Gianluca Sanna⁽⁷⁾| T: T D Barron| OR: 67| C| D

12/1

Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in March. Wasn't in the same form at Newcastle 17 days ago but could bounce back quickly.

Form: 4149-19

(8)

Asmund^b¹⁶⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Harrison Shaw| T: D Carroll| OR: 66| CD

7/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in October. Respectable fifth of 18 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D (heavy), sticking to task. Claims if he's tuned up after 167-day absence.

Doctor Khan Junior³⁰⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: P Mulrennan| T: G R Oldroyd| OR: 66

50/1

Unexposed and might improve for a switch to handicaps, but handicapper hasn;t been lenient with opening mark and has a 10-month absence to overcome.

Form: 786-

Code Purple²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: G Lee| T: B Haslam| OR: 65| D

9/2

11/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 24 days ago. Seems sure to go well again for a thriving yard.

Form: 060-321

Guest List¹⁶⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: S H James| T: K Scott| OR: 65

6/1

Sliding down the weights and wasn't discredited when sixth at Newcastle last time. Has been off 164 days since, though, and might need this.

Form: 566906-

(11)

Martin's Brig^b¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: D Allan| T: D Thompson| OR: 60| D

13/2

Respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, soft, 13/2) 13 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Consistent sort who should give his running once more.

Form: 11-4324

(2)

Bold Territories^p¹⁵⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 59| C| D

5/1

Course winner. Down the field at Wolverhampton when last seen but could bounce back after 5 months off if the market speaks in his favour.

Form: 111380-

(12)

Revoquable¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: Cam Hardie| T: T D Easterby| OR: 55

12/1

Back to form when runner-up at Thirsk recently and he's less expoosed than the bulk of his rivals, so merits consideration.

Form: 598-662

(3)

Mutanaaseq³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 52

4/1

Modest performer who didn't fire when last seen at Newcastle a month ago. Mark demands improvement so others are more persuasive.

Form: 29576-6

(7)

Billy Wedge¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 8-4| J: J Fanning| T: N Mechie| OR: 45| D

14/1

Hasn't won for a while and only fifth at Thirsk last time. Hard to make a case for from out of the weights.

Forecasts

Mutanaaseq (4/1), Code Purple (9/2), Bold Territories (5/1), Guest List (6/1), Martin's Brig (13/2), Asmund (7/1), Miss Britain (8/1), Zumurud (10/1), Viva Voce (12/1), Revoquable (12/1), Billy Wedge (14/1), Doctor Khan Junior (50/1), Churchill Bay (50/1)

Having scored at Newcastle last time, CODE PURPLE makes plenty of appeal for a stable that is enjoying a fine run of late. Revoquable and Martin's Brig look the chief dangers in a race where most have something to prove.
