(1)

Amaysmont^p¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Ben Sanderson⁽³⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 58| CD

15/2

C&D winner. In first-time cheekpieces, produced his best effort this winter when fourth of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 16 days ago, despite having not been ideally placed. Interesting from career-low mark.

Form: 97457-4

(3)

Weloof⁴⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 9-8| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J Butler| OR: 57| D

7/2

Again shaped well when second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 8/1) 45 days ago, conceding first run. He remains 1 lb below his last winning mark, so he could be ready to go one better this time around.

Form: 568622-

(6)

Possible Ambition^v²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 55| CD

11/4

C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. After 6 weeks off and with visor reapplied, respectable third of 8 in handicap (11/2) at this C&D 24 days ago. Can give his running once more.

Form: 35398-3

(8)

Balqaa²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 54| CD

5/1

C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Possibly still building up her fitness when fifth of 6 in handicap (9/2) at this course (10.2f) 24 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Back down in trip.

Form: 2530-85

(5)

Pop Favorite^b¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Elisha Whittington⁽³⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 54| CD

6/1

Five-time C&D winner. Back on track when winning 7-runner handicap (6/1) here 16 days ago, edging ahead 1f out. Respected at this venue.

Form: 449-451

(7)

Masham Moor¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Paula Muir⁽³⁾| T: S G West| OR: 51| CD

8/1

C&D winner. After 4 months off having left Chris Fairhurst, shaped as if better for the outing when fifth of 7 in handicap (7/2) here 2 weeks ago. Has dropped back down to his last winning mark.

Form: 43826-5

(4)

Coligone Kate^h1³³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 45

13/2

Remains a maiden after 19 races. First start since leaving Ollie Pears, probably needed the run after 10 months off when seventh of 9 in handicap (13/2) at this C&D 33 days ago. Hood now reached for.

Form: 0/0653-7

(2)

Cammy²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: A Mullen| T: J Ward| OR: 45

33/1

Making his first start for Simon Whitaker following 27 months off, ran below form when ninth of 12 in minor event (66/1) at this C&D 25 days ago. Looks to be up against it.

Form: 00673/9

Forecasts

Possible Ambition (11/4), Weloof (7/2), Balqaa (5/1), Pop Favorite (6/1), Coligone Kate (13/2), Amaysmont (15/2), Masham Moor (8/1), Cammy (33/1)

WELOOF has shaped as if his turn could be near when runner-up on his last 2 starts, conceding first run at Wolverhampton on his latest outing (the winner has scored again since), so he is taken to get back to winning ways. Pop Favorite gained a fifth C&D success 16 days ago and could be the main danger, ahead of Amaysmont.
