Rhythmic Acclaim¹⁸³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: A J Farragher| T: P J McBride| OR: 57

22/1

Remains a maiden after 12 starts. Ended last season with a lesser effort when eighth of 10 in handicap (17/2) at Chelmsford City (7f) in October. Has eased further in the weight ahead of her return.

Form: 463538-

Due Date^v³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Jack Gilligan| T: C Wallis| OR: 56| D

9/1

Doubled his tally at Wolverhampton in February but well below form both starts since, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 16/1) 38 days ago. Capable if on a going day.

Form: 153100

Peggoty³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Queally| T: C Poulton| OR: 55| D

125/1

After a further 4 months off, finished well held on first outing since leaving Robyn Brisland when last of 8 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 125/1) 30 days ago. This run should reveal more.

Form: 1478/5-8

Diamond Dreamer^b⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: David Probert| T: P R Chamings| OR: 55| D

6/1

Winner at Kempton (6f) on penultimate start last season. After 5 months off, ninth of 11 in handicap at the same C&D (12/1) 47 days ago, no extra final 1f. Could be much closer to form with his reappearance behind him.

Form: 78913-9

Marinakis¹¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: R Kingscote| T: Ian Williams| OR: 54

11/1

Made little impact switched to handicaps last season, ninth of 12 at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 40/1) in December. Much more required after 4 months off.

Form: 675/009-

Nordic Glory³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: William Carson| T: M J Attwater| OR: 54| CD

9/2

All 5 career victories at this course. Quickly left behind a below-par effort when second of 12 in handicap (15/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 34 days ago. One to note back at this venue.

9/4

(2)

Admirable Lad¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham| OR: 49| D

10/1

Resumed winning ways at Chelmsford City in February and creditable effort when third of 8 in minor event (11/2) at Southwell (6.1f) 15 days ago. Can give his running once more.

Form: 163313

(7)

Moorgate²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: J F Egan| T: P G Murphy| OR: 48| CD

13/2

Off the mark at this C&D in November. Has run well in his 3 starts at this track since, ¾-length second of 6 to the reopposing Hannah's Return in minor event over C&D (AW, 11/4) 29 days ago. Respected.

Form: 4129-42

(4)

Dequinto¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Jack Doughty⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45

11/1

Failed to repeat his previous effort when last of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 22/1) 16 days ago, typically slowly away. Others more persuasive.

Form: 000/530

Forecasts

Hannah's Return (9/4), Nordic Glory (9/2), Diamond Dreamer (6/1), Moorgate (13/2), Due Date (9/1), Admirable Lad (10/1), Dequinto (11/1), Marinakis (11/1), Rhythmic Acclaim (22/1), Peggoty (125/1)

HANNAH'S RETURN was always doing enough from the front when winning over C&D on her latest outing and she can make a bold bid to add to her tally. Moorgate was runner-up to the selection when the pair met last month and he can give another good account, with 5-time course winner Nordic Glory completing the shortlist
