Cakewalk⁸⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Davies| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 64

Jenson Benson²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Hart| T: S Lycett| OR: 58| CD

13/2

Four-time course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable third of 14 in handicap at this C&D (10/1) 21 days ago. Has to be taken seriously from this lowly mark.

Forecasts

Cakewalk (4/1), Born A Rebel (9/2), Switchel (11/2), Arenas Del Tiempo (11/2), Palazzo Persico (13/2), Jenson Benson (13/2), Renesmee (17/2), Mc'ted (25/1), Fibonacci Sequence (28/1)

JENSON BENSON has registered all of his career wins at this venue, and from a handy mark with Jason Hart in the saddle, he has plenty to recommend him. Switchel seems very likely to give it a good go unless the removal of a hood has a negative effect, with Renesmee also of interest.
