Arecibo¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-3| J: Zak Wheatley⁽⁵⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 91| D

4/1

It is now twenty eight runs since his last win in 2021 but he ran a cracker making his stable debut/after 7 months off when second at Musselburgh (5f) 2 weeks ago. Nicely clear of the remainder then and feasible to think he can figure again.

Form: 53307-2

Ready Freddie Go^p²⁴⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: Harry Russell| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 91| CD

33/1

4-time C&D winner. Underperformed when eighth of 12 in handicap at this course (6f, good to soft, 33/1) when last seen in September and whilst the return to 5f rates a plus, he's tended to need a run to put him spot on.

Tinto⁴¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: P Mulrennan| T: M Dods| OR: 90| C| D

17/2

Course winner who got back on the scoresheet in first-time cheekpieces at Redcar (6f) in August and best effort for some time when second in Ayr Silver Cup on final start. Probably needed the run on return at Doncaster in March but headgear again left off here.

Form: 37172-0

Tatterstall²³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 84| DWS

14/1

Landed inaugural 3-y-o "Dash" at Epsom (5f) last term but nearer last than first all 3 starts thereafter in similarly competitive handicaps. Undergone wind surgery ahead of this return to action and he did win on his respective return last season.

Form: 171000-

Star Of Lady M^v¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Mark Winn⁽³⁾| T: D O'Meara| OR: 82| D

11/1

2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Lingfield in April. 8¼ lengths tenth of 13 to Adaay In Devon in listed race at Bath (5f, good to soft, 33/1) 15 days ago. Not taken lightly back in this more suitable grade.

Form: 215210

Running Cool¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 82| D

22/1

First run since leaving Miss Natalia Lupini when thirteenth of 15 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft, 33/1) 13 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Needs to step up plenty on that to figure here.

Form: 11850-0

Zarzyni^b¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Laura Pearson| T: T D Barron| OR: 81| D

9/1

Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. Below form seventh of 15 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft, 9/1) 13 days ago, running on. Blinkers back on.

Form: 304427

Spirit Of Applause²²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 80

9/1

Scored at Haydock last May and has caught the eye a couple of times thereafter. Ended last season, below form though, only sixth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, heavy, 11/1) in September. May strip fitter for this first start for 7 months.

Form: 925406-

Reigning Profit^p¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 77| D

16/1

Eleventh of 12 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft, 11/1) 13 days ago, headed 2f out and weakening. Cheekpieces back on. Has work to do.

Form: 327740

Elegant Erin⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: D Nolan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 77| D

10/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap (6/1) at Beverley (5f, good to soft) 9 days ago, not ideally placed. Others more persuasive.

Form: 63-8546

(12)

Khabib^p⁶²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: O J Orr| T: R Craggs| OR: 75| D

11/1

Latest win at Southwell in November. 28/1, below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 62 days ago. Still, he's not out of things returned to turf.

Form: 4143-96

Maximum Impact¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: George Scott| OR: 82| D

5/1

Sharp juvenile who won first 2 starts for Alice Haynes last summer. Struggled up in grade in trio of starts thereafter but confirmed he retains ability back from 6 months off when fourth of 7 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f) for new yard 19 days ago. Needs to build on that now.

Form: 11087-4

(9)

Glory Fighter¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: Cam Hardie| T: P T Midgley| OR: 71| CD

9/1

Best effort for a while when taking C&D handicap in the mud on penultimate start and not seen to best effect at Epsom subsequently, his blindfold removed late and keeping on steadily. Remains on a fair mark and no surprise to see him thereabouts.

Forecasts

Arecibo (4/1), Maximum Impact (5/1), Tinto (17/2), Glory Fighter (9/1), Spirit Of Applause (9/1), Zarzyni (9/1), Elegant Erin (10/1), Star Of Lady M (11/1), Khabib (11/1), Tatterstall (14/1), Reigning Profit (16/1), Vadamiah (20/1), Spring Is Sprung (20/1), Running Cool (22/1), Ready Freddie Go (33/1)

Having beaten a subsequent winner over C&D on his penultimate start, GLORY FIGHTER wasn't seen to best effect at Epsom 11 days ago and he's well worth another chance to prove his revised mark still workable. Arecibo ran a cracker on return/stable debut at Musselburgh and is feared, despite his losing run, with 3-y-o Maximum Impact and Khabib others to consider.
