Granary Queen^p¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 72| C| D

4/1

Did well under circumstances when ending long losing run in 10-runner handicap (16/1) at Kempton (6f) 10 days ago, overcoming pace bias. Not taken lightly as she goes back up in trip.

Form: 350431

Storymaker^b,t⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Tommie Jakes⁽⁷⁾| T: G Boughey| OR: 67

85/40

In first-time tongue strap, built on her run of placed efforts when opening account in 10-runner handicap (5/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) a week ago, just holding on. Could be thereabouts once more.

Form: 763331

Maruna³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Christian Howarth⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 67

25/1

Successful at Newcastle in November, but not in the same form when sixth of 11 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f, 12/1) 13 days later. Needs to resume her progress as she makes her handicap debut.

Form: 416

Sixties Chic³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: George Bass⁽³⁾| T: J Channon| OR: 66| C

15/8

Two wins from 6 runs this year, scoring at this course (6f) at the beginning of the month. Left poorly placed when seventh of 11 in handicap here (4/1) 3 days ago, so no surprise to see her get back on track.

Form: 431217

Double Tot⁹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Joey Haynes| T: D M Simcock| OR: 64

18/1

On softer ground than previously, ran no sort of race when last of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (1m, soft, 12/1) in September. Improvement required on her polytrack debut.

Form: 8-7940

(5)

Dulcet Spirit¹⁰⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Jack Gilligan| T: B R Johnson| OR: 59| CD

7/1

C&D winner in January and doubled her tally at Chepstow in July. Run of good form halted when tenth of 12 in handicap (15/2) at Chelmsford City (7f) in September. Needs to leave latest effort behind after a break.

Form: 331320

(6)

Boom Boom Pow³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽³⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 57| D

16/1

Gained her first win at Kempton (7f) in June but hasn't gone on from that effort since, fifth of 10 in handicap (50/1) at the same C&D 3 days ago. Has work to do.

Forecasts

Sixties Chic (15/8), Storymaker (85/40), Granary Queen (4/1), Laura's Breeze (6/1), Dulcet Spirit (7/1), Boom Boom Pow (16/1), Double Tot (18/1), Maruna (25/1)

LAURA'S BREEZE has taken well to the all-weather, getting off the mark at Wolverhampton in November before being poorly drawn on her last 2 starts. From stall 1 this time around, she can resume her progress to double her tally, with Granary Queen feared most after she returned to winning ways 10 days ago. Storymaker is also respected.
