5/1

Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 11-runner nursery (22/1) at Southwell (6.1f), well ridden. Off 144 days. More needed up 5 lb but couldn't rule out further progress.

Form: 9071-

Wren Officer^v²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Allan| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 63| CD

4/1

C&D winner in January. 11/2 and visored for 1st time, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 28 days ago, nearest finish. Expected to be bang there with the visor retained.

4/1

First run since leaving Archie Watson and career best when winning 11-runner handicap (18/1) at this C&D 44 days ago. 4 lb rise tolerable and she has to enter calculations.

Form: 7424-11

10/3

Lightly-raced maiden. 5/2, bit below form third of 7 in nursery at Thirsk (6f, soft) when last seen in September. Went close over this C&D on penultimate start and he's one to consider.

Chillout Charlie¹⁷⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Faye McManoman| T: N Tinkler| OR: 57

10/1

12/1

Forecasts

Forever Eighteen (10/3), Wren Officer (4/1), Badosa (4/1), Brummell (5/1), Pinpoint (17/2), Chillout Charlie (10/1), Rishi (12/1), Come On Irene (25/1), Bella Camina (33/1)

The vote goes to WREN OFFICER, who is only 2 lb above the mark off which she was successful here in January and her latest effort at Wolverhampton was eye-catching. Badosa made a winning start for this yard over C&D last month and she looks a big threat, while Forever Eighteen is also shortlisted.
