Atlantic Heart¹⁰⁹

50/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2022 but shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when fifth of 13 in handicap (9/1) at Newcastle (8f) on final outing in September, unable to sustain effort. Could see her race out better on the back of a breathing operation/break.

Forecasts

Tipperary Moon (4/1), Al Suil Eile (9/2), Turbo Command (5/1), Kath's Toyboy (11/2), Dr Rio (6/1), Top Of The Class (8/1), Intoxicata (8/1), Violeta (14/1), Powdering (22/1), Autumn Angel (25/1), Atlantic Heart (50/1)

A tentative vote goes to KATH'S TOYBOY, who ran well after a break behind an impressive winner over C&D last month. Turbo Command, Intoxicata and Top of The Class are a trio of others with solid-looking claims.
