5/2

Took advantage of drop in grade when winning 9-runner minor event over C&D (15/8) 8 days ago, forging clear. Holds solid follow-up claims.

Form: 2954-91

(6)

Ana Emaraaty²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 46

4/1

Modest gelding. Creditable fifth of 12 in minor event at this course (10.2f, 14/1) 20 days ago. Down in trip. Each-way claims.

Form: 66635-5

(9)

Child Of Lir^p⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: D Nolan| T: R Menzies| OR: 48| CD

10/1

Modest gelding. C&D winner. Winner here in September. 8/1, 3¼ lengths third of 9 to Ledger in minor event at this C&D 8 days ago. Others preferred.

Form: 100-853

(5)

Coligone Kate^h²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 45

6/1

Remains a maiden after 20 Flat starts but showed benefit of recent run when creditable third of 8 in handicap over C&D (13/2) 20 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again.

Form: 0653-73

(3)

Copper Mountain^t²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 50| BF| D

5/2

Below best latest but had got back to winning ways over this trip at Southwell previously and ran well here in the autumn. Shortlisted.

Form: 225-616

(8)

Fulltime^p,t1⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: A Mullen| T: R Menzies| OR: 43

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, first run since leaving Eoin Griffin when 6¼ lengths sixth of 9 to Ledger in minor event at this C&D (25/1) 8 days ago, slowly away. Work to do.

Form: 8600-6

(1)

Mr Coco Bean^p¹⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 9-9| J: Phil Dennis| T: Helen Cuthbert| OR: 47| D

25/1

Modest gelding. Thirty six runs since last win in 2021. 25/1, respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 10 days ago, hampered. Makes limited appeal.

Form: 00-6337

(2)

Retirement Beckons³⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Tommie Jakes⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 45| D

50/1

Three wins from 17 runs last year. 22/1, last of 7 in handicap at this C&D 36 days ago, slowly away. Hard to fancy.

Form: 557-907

(7)

Run At Dawn^t⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: D C Costello| T: A Nicol| OR: 46

28/1

Poor gelding. 3¼ lengths fourth of 9 to Ledger in minor event at this C&D (40/1) 8 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Still looking for first success.

Form: 6000-94

Forecasts

Ledger (5/2), Copper Mountain (5/2), Ana Emaraaty (4/1), Coligone Kate (6/1), Child Of Lir (10/1), Mr Coco Bean (25/1), Fulltime (25/1), Run At Dawn (28/1), Retirement Beckons (50/1)

This can go to COPPER MOUNTAIN, who was unsuited by the drop in trip when below par at Southwell last time and came close on her last 2 visits here. Ledger and Coligone Kate are feared most.
