Churchella^v¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 77| CD

3/1

Recorded a third win of the year when opening her turf account in 10-runner handicap (9/1) at this C&D (firm) 2 weeks ago, produced to lead final 100 yds. Respected in her current form.

Form: 510131

Plus Point²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽⁵⁾| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 77

9/4

Won back-to-back races switched to handicaps last year. Upped in trip, didn't build on her encouraging return when fourth of 7 at Goodwood (16f, soft, 5/1) 28 days ago. Remains capable of better back down in distance.

Form: 9811-34

Story Horse³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁵⁾| T: W J Knight| OR: 74

14/1

Took a step forward when runner-up on final 2 starts last year. However, after 4 months off he was possibly unsuited by conditions when eleventh of 16 in handicap at this course (11.9f, soft, 12/1) 36 days ago. Up in trip.

Form: 45622-0

Rogue Tornado²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: James Owen| OR: 73

5/2

After 8 months off, made his first start since leaving Tom Clover a winning one when landing 8-runner handicap (3/1) at Leicester (11.8f, good) 3 weeks ago, holding on gamely. Can give another good account back up in trip.

Form: 92123-1

(7)

Achnamara^p¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Connor Beasley| T: P A Kirby| OR: 72

28/1

After 4 months off, never dangerous when 10¼ lengths eighth of 10 to the reopposing Churchella in handicap (40/1) at this C&D (firm) 2 weeks ago. Mark continues to fall but more needed to take advantage.

Form: 7209-58

(5)

Kalikapour³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: T Eaves| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 70

40/1

In first-time visor, failed to come on much at all for his seasonal/stable debut when fifth of 6 in handicap (50/1) at Redcar (10f, soft) 30 days ago. Others preferred as he goes up in trip.

Form: 7050-05

(6)

My Chiquita^h¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: B Brookhouse| OR: 67

5/1

Fair perfomer on the Flat who won back-to-back races sent hurdling in October. Good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Aintree (20f, good to soft, 5/1) 15 days ago, so she's an interesting contender as she returns to the level.

Form: 64323-8

Forecasts

Plus Point (9/4), Rogue Tornado (5/2), Churchella (3/1), My Chiquita (5/1), Story Horse (14/1), Achnamara (28/1), Kalikapour (40/1)

Having won her first 2 starts in handicaps last season, PLUS POINT wasn't quite in the same form as on her reappearance when fourth at Goodwood on her latest outing, but she is well worth another chance as she drops back down in trip. Churchella has been thriving of late and isn't taken lightly, with Rogue Tornado also in the mix.
