Albasheer^b⁷⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 105| C

2/1

Dead-heated with Summerghand in valuable handicap at York in August and proved as good as ever when winning 13-runner handicap at this course (6f, 9/4) on New Year's Day. Has to be respected back at 5f.

Form: 18453-1

Badri¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Ryan Sexton| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 103| CD

16/1

Career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Ascot (5f) in October. Not quite in same form when eleventh of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 12/1) 14 days ago. Others more persuasive with yard still not firing.

Form: 20201-0

Brazen Bolt²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 102| BF| C| D

50/1

Four-time course winner. Latest win in Group 3 at Sakhir in January. Not disgraced when sixth of 17 in handicap there (5f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Remains on career-high mark on return to UK and likely needs bit more here.

Form: 842-126

Hiya Maite^t⁷⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: S R Bowring| OR: 97| CD

9/2

Won 3 times in 2023, including when easily landing 9-runner event at Southwell last time by 5½ lengths from Above. Tongue strap back on here and he's likely to prove competitive again from 10 lb higher mark.

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: D Allan| T: M Appleby| OR: 95| CD

16/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in November. 10/1, another creditable effort when 4 lengths fourth of 10 to Diligent Harry in listed race at Southwell (5f) 20 days ago. Holding form well this winter and has frame claims again.

Bergerac^b²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 94| CD

22/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in December. 20/1, bit below form 5 lengths fifth of 10 to Diligent Harry in listed race at Southwell (5f) 20 days ago. Others make greater appeal.

Form: 0211-85

Fine Wine^b²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 8-8| J: S H James| T: S Dixon| OR: 90| CD

25/1

C&D winner. 25/1, 5¼ lengths seventh of 10 to Diligent Harry in listed race at Southwell (5f) 20 days ago. Mark looks particularly lenient if able to bounce back to form.

Form: 38405-7

Lethal Nymph²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: Rowan Scott| T: P T Midgley| OR: 89

66/1

First run since leaving Clive Cox when seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (6f) 24 days ago. That run was likely needed and he's market check on second start for yard who can rejuvenate their horses.

Form: 20025-7

Billyjoh²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-6| J: Frederick Larson⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 88

8/1

Impressive winner at Southwell last month before improving again to follow up in an 8-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 9 days ago, Clearly in the form of his life and he should be bang there if regular slow starts don't prove an issue back at the minimum trip.

Form: 741-411

Burning Cash³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 8-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 87| D

9/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Good second of 12 in handicap (33/1) at this C&D 34 days ago, running on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 08576-2

Mondammej³

Age: 7| Weight: 8-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 85| C| D

10/1

Unreliable sort. Course winner. Thirty four runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 9 in handicap at this course (6f, 10/1) 3 days ago, missing break. Hard to have much faith in at present despite having fallen to attractive mark,

Harry Brown³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-4| J: Hayley Turner| T: D M Simcock| OR: 85| BF| D

13/2

7/2, creditable second of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 34 days ago, running on. Mark still appeals as fair and he's not written off.

Forecasts

Albasheer (2/1), Hiya Maite (9/2), Harry Brown (13/2), Billyjoh (8/1), Burning Cash (9/1), Mondammej (10/1), Bedford Flyer (16/1), Badri (16/1), Bergerac (22/1), Fine Wine (25/1), Brazen Bolt (50/1), Lethal Nymph (66/1)

HIYA MAITE was impressive both visually and on the clock when bolting up at Southwell last time and he's taken to defy a 10 lb higher mark. Billyjoh is in the form of his life and has to be considerd going for the hat-trick, though his slow-starting tendencies slighty temper enthusiasm at the minimum trip, whilst Albasheer produced a career-best to score here last time and should go well again.
