Grant Wood²³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: G Lee| T: P T Midgley| OR: 75

22/1

Fairly useful gelding. Made good start for Eric Alston when runner-up at Leicester (7f) in October. Below that level on soft ground at Redcar next time but is worth monitoring in the market on return/handicap debut for new yard.

11/4

Still looking for first success but has run creditably in recent starts, latest when second of 6 in handicap (9/4) at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again.

15/2

Built on previous effort here when good second of 9 in handicap (9/2) at Ripon (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Remains low mileage so further progress may be on the cards.

Form: 59-2522

Forecasts

Lord Abama (11/4), Oso Rapido (9/2), Rhythm (6/1), Caesars Pearl (15/2), Milbanke (15/2), Atlantic Heart (15/2), Corinthia Knight (10/1), Crypto Quest (14/1), Round The Island (14/1), Tyke (14/1), Grant Wood (22/1), Panama City (28/1)

Preference is for CAESARS PEARL, who pulled clear of the remainder when second at Ripon last time and still has relatively few miles on the clock. Lord Abama and Crypto Quest head the list of dangers.
