Intoxicata^v³^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Rossa Ryan| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 51| BF| D

4/6

3 wins from 12 runs this year, latest at Lingfield in November. Failed to complete the hat-trick at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 3 days ago but ran well nonetheless and remains of interest under another penalty.

Poetic Jack¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Marco Ghiani| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 55

11/1

Modest maiden who ran well when third of 8 in C&D handicap (6/1) 19 days ago. He's still lightly raced enough to think he may have an even bigger effort in him.

C&D winner. Nineteen runs since last win in 2021 but posted another good effort when fourth of 8 in handicap at this C&D 19 days ago. Should remain competitive.

Forecasts

Intoxicata (4/6), Last Date (9/2), Brazen Arrow (15/2), Little Red Dancer (17/2), Poetic Jack (11/1), Vintage Fashion (16/1), Dazzerling (40/1), Shorts On (80/1), Withy Rock (125/1), Ritarocks (150/1)

INTOXICATA is improving quickly and is taken to make it 3 wins from her last 4 outings. Poetic Jack is still lightly raced enough to think he may have an even bigger effort in his locker, while Last Date is going through a good spell at the moment and ought to remain competitive.
