Glory And Honour¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 62

7/1

Below form sixth of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Catterick (12.1f, heavy) 13 days ago, headed under 3f out and no extra. Heavy ground again possibly against him then and better showing not ruled out.

Form: 113-596

(9)

Vienna Girl⁶²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: B A Curtis| T: K Frost| OR: 59

7/2

Fair bumper winner who has displayed some promise in a trio of AW novice events, staying on gradually for third over 10f at Newcastle in February. Promises to do better now handicapping over this more suitable trip.

Form: 663

(5)

Scarborough Castle¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Hayley Turner| T: D M Simcock| OR: 58| C

10/1

Course winner. Latest win at Southwell (12f) in March. Fifth of 7 in handicap at this course (12.2f, 8/1) 10 days ago. Significantly up in trip.

Form: 362135

(8)

Ask Peter²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Archie Young⁽⁷⁾| T: C Johnston| OR: 59

20/1

Lightly-raced 4-y-o who shaped as if the run would bring her on when fourth on return from 9 months off at Chelmsford (14f) 24 days ago, outpaced home turn and plugging on. Mark has eased a little more and this even longer trip is worth exploring.

Form: 7/4244-4

Huscari¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Nicola Currie| T: J A Osborne| OR: 59

18/1

Winner at Lingfield in March. 17/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Chelmsford (2m) 12 days ago, hampered. Makes tapeta debut. Can give another good account.

Form: 77/9414

(6)

Young Endless^p1²⁶²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: C Fellowes| OR: 57

7/2

Low-mileage sort who again hinted at ability when sixth in 11-runner maiden at Lingfield (12f) in August. Absent since but switch to handicaps rates a plus and interesting if the market speaks in his favour. Cheekpieces replace visor.

Form: 006-

Pyrrhic Dancer^t1²⁶⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Gina Mangan⁽⁵⁾| T: G Brown| OR: 52

66/1

Modest form at best for Richard Hannon, well held last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield when last seen in July. Best watched now starting out for new yard. Tongue tie on 1st time.

Form: 678560-

Mr Rumbalicious²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: David Probert| T: A King| OR: 50

11/4

Found it easier dropped in grade, justifying good support to land 7-runner minor event at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 29 days ago, well positioned in a steadily-run race. Still, he remains unexposed at this sort of trip and claims from such a lowly mark returned to handicaps.

Form: 765-321

(11)

The Resdev Way¹⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 8-11| J: J Fanning| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 48| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Three wins from 15 runs last year. 9/1, sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (14f) 17 days ago, ridden under 2f out and making no impression. Back up in trip now.

Form: 747-096

(3)

Fleursals²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: Aidan Keeley⁽⁵⁾| T: A Forbes| OR: 45

50/1

Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. 100/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 25 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Others more persuasive.

Form: 85830-0

(10)

Toutatis^b1⁴⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-9| J: Rowan Scott| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 45

25/1

18/1, seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Ayr (16f, good to firm) 45 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time returned to the Flat but others boast more compelling claims.

Form: 9/7640-5

Forecasts

Mr Rumbalicious (11/4), Vienna Girl (7/2), Young Endless (7/2), Glory And Honour (7/1), Scarborough Castle (10/1), The Resdev Way (11/1), Huscari (18/1), Ask Peter (20/1), Toutatis (25/1), Fleursals (50/1), Pyrrhic Dancer (66/1)

MR RUMBALICIOUS matched his previous best when opening his account in a 7-runner Lingfield minor event 4 weeks ago and, from a basement mark, he looks set to go well again returned to handicaps. Vienna Girl, a fair winner in bumpers, is interesting now upped in trip for her handicap debut, with Young Endless and Scarborough Castle others worth a second look.
