Red Treasure⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Mr Simon Walker| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 72

5/1

Winner at 6/7f who ran well and would have finished closer still but for losing momentum at a crucial stage when runner-up at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in November. Below best at Lingfield a month later but likely type to bounce back and Simon Walker a positive booking.

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Mr Fletcher Yarham⁽³⁾| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 67| BF

3/1

Two wins from 6 runs last year. Latest win at Wolverhampton in January. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 11/8) 9 days ago. Not taken lightly.

Form: 6131-15

(5)

Brunello Breeze^b²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: Mr Patrick Millman| T: T P Tate| OR: 63| CD

1/1

Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D (5/4) 25 days ago, readily. Expected to be bang there.

Form: 56314-1

(3)

Loom Large^t⁹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: Miss Hannah Crawford⁽⁷⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 63| CD

6/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in October. 7/2, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at this C&D in October, dropping away only late on having taken a strong hold. Not discounted back from 3 months off.

Form: 525126-

(7)

Mass Consumption^v1¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: Mr Matt Brown⁽⁵⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 62

22/1

Last of 9 in handicap at this course (16.2f, 16/1) 11 days ago, dropping away from 3f out. Visor replaces cheekpieces now but plenty to prove at present back down in trip.

Form: 53475-9

(4)

Absolute Dream¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-1| J: Mr E Cagney| T: R A Fahey| OR: 57| C

40/1

Course winner. 25/1, last of 11 in handicap at this course (8f) 11 days ago, not seen to best effect having raced without any cover. Still, others make more appeal now upped in trip.

Form: 0304-70

Forecasts

Brunello Breeze (1/1), Asgard's Captain (3/1), Red Treasure (5/1), Loom Large (6/1), Mass Consumption (22/1), Flylikeaneagle (22/1), Absolute Dream (40/1), Balranald (80/1)

BRUNELLO BREEZE has been resurgent in blinkers in recent months, making it 2 wins from his last 3 starts when readily taking a C&D handicap 25 days ago. He earns the vote to continue the good work, with Red Treasure, back from a short break, and Asgard's Captain, who may not have been ideally suited to the track at Lingfield last time, heading the dangers.
