Fast Fred¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Harrison Shaw| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 64| D

11/4

Gained breakthrough success at Redcar (10f) and made light work of following up under a penalty in 9-runner handicap (13/8) at Southwell (12.1f) 15 days ago. Merits serious consideration again in hat-trick bid.

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 64| C

Laudable^p²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽³⁾| T: T Davidson| OR: 63| D

4/1

3 wins from 14 runs this year. Latest win at Catterick in September. Creditable second of 6 in handicap at this C&D (10/3) 25 days ago. No reason why he won't give another good account.

Form: 124222

Galahad Threepwood³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: Jason Hart| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 63| D

16/1

Dundory³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-12| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 62| D

40/1

Last win came at Doncaster (11.9f) in spring of last year but more miss than hit on the Flat this time around. Better effort when third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f) 5 weeks ago and switched yards ahead of this. Market can prove a useful guide.

Carlos Felix¹⁵⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: A Elliott| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 62| CD

16/1

C&D winner. Sixth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Catterick (12.1f, good to soft) in June, ridden 3f out and never involved. Return to all-weather needs to have positive effect back from a break.

Form: 718-666

Oriental Art¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: L Morris| T: D M Simcock| OR: 60| D

13/2

One win from 32 Flat runs. 12/1, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 11 days ago, finishing with running left. Worth bearing in mind from this sort of mark.

Lindwall^p,t¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 55

20/1

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: William Pyle⁽³⁾| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 50| D

40/1

Form: 234160

Typewritten^p³²

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: T Eaves| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 49| D

80/1

Unreliable individual. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Shaped as if needing the run after 8 months off when ninth of 10 in handicap (80/1) at Southwell (14.1f) 32 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and this should reveal more.

Form: 6-43959

(12)

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: J P Sullivan| T: Gary Rutherford| OR: 47

80/1

Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (25/1) at Musselburgh (16f, good to soft) 16 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Back down in trip. Makes tapeta debut.

Humble Spark (2/1), Fast Fred (11/4), Laudable (4/1), Oriental Art (13/2), Galahad Threepwood (16/1), Carlos Felix (16/1), Lindwall (20/1), Tilsitt (28/1), Bamboo Bay (40/1), Dundory (40/1), Star Of Markinch (80/1), Typewritten (80/1)

FAST FRED has picked up the progressive thread since switched to handicaps, following up his breakthrough success in comfortable fashion at Southwell (12.1f) 2 weeks ago. Unexposed at this trip, he's very much of interest again from his revised mark and earns the vote. Humble Spark, back down markedly in class, Oriental Art and Laudable head up the dangers.
