Zero Carbon⁵⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Finley Marsh| T: A Wintle| OR: 89| D

33/1

Useful sort who enhanced his excellent Kempton record over 1m in August, making all. Smashing effort when third in 6f conditions' event back there in October but wasn't in the same form at this C&D just over 8 weeks ago. Subsequently sold from Richard Hughes for 20,000 gns.

Documenting^p1³¹

Age: 11| Weight: 9-9| J: J Mitchell| T: K Frost| OR: 88| D

18/1

18/1, fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 31 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Still in something of a lull, but is now below the mark he won from in the spring and first-time cheekpieces are applied.

Form: 039075

Alzahir^t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: George Wood| T: J Candlish| OR: 87| D

15/2

Latest win at Leicester in October. Well-backed 9/2, not seen to best effect when eighth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 3 weeks ago, finishing with running left after no room on inner over 1f out. It's possible he has a quirk or 2 but expected to be bang there.

Form: 447128

Zip^v²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁷⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 85| CD

16/1

Opened his account for the year at Doncaster last month and was seen to maximum effect when following up in 12-runner handicap (10/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 3 weeks ago by ¾ length from Royal Zabeel, having run of race. Up another 5 lb but should make a bold bid for the hat-trick.

Form: 956311

Royal Zabeel²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 85

4/1

17/2, first run since leaving James Tate (30,000 gns) when good ¾-length second of 12 to Zip in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 3 weeks ago, well positioned given how the race unfolded. There are races to be won with him, so he's one to look out for.

Form: 718-032

Diamondonthehill⁶⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: R Kingscote| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 85| D

33/1

Fared little better when fifth of 11 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good, 20/1) 65 days ago, barely adequate test. First run for yard after leaving Michael Dods (14,000 gns) and is now back down to his last winning mark having an extremely rare all-weather outing.

Form: 727805

How Impressive^t,v⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Joe Leavy⁽³⁾| T: H Palmer| OR: 84| CD

20/1

C&D winner. 5 wins from 18 runs this year, latest here in October. Found run of good form coming to a halt under a penalty when eleventh of 13 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 44 days ago, doing too much too soon. Must bounce back.

Form: 032110

Master Richard^t1²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: P Mulrennan| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 82| BF| D

5/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 16/5, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 4 weeks ago, no extra only late on. Tongue strap on 1st time.

Form: 774444

Billyb⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: S A Gray| T: Craig Lidster| OR: 82| C| D

9/2

Course winner. Latest win at Beverley in June. 6/1, wasn't at his best when fifth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 8 days ago, too keen under a change of tactics. Each-way claims.

Form: 512035

(4)

Chalk Mountain^t³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Rob Hornby| T: W S Kittow| OR: 82| CD

7/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 9 runs this year, latest at Kempton in October. 9/1, rare poor effort when seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (8.1f) 32 days ago. Not taken lightly back at this trip.

Form: 111627

(5)

Admiral D³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Billy Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 80

22/1

Ungenuine type. 16/1, respectable seventh of 15 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, heavy) 5 weeks ago, running on after hampered 2f out. Easy enough to take on for win purposes.

Form: 860027

(14)

So Quiet⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Harry Charlton| OR: 78| BF| D

5/1

Run best excused when ninth of 12 in handicap (11/8) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 54 days ago, every chance when badly hampered over 1f out. Wide stall to contend with but certainly not out of things.

Form: 188249

(9)

One More Dream⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 76| CD

80/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 17 runs this year. Again below form when eleventh of 13 in handicap (40/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 9 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 555000

(6)

Three Yorkshiremen^t1²⁰⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-5| J: Hayley Turner| T: M Wigham| OR: 70WS

125/1

16/1, ran poorly when last of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 6 months ago. Down in trip. Tongue strap on 1st time. Percentage call is to look elsewhere on return (has had a breathing operation).

Form: 6-66159

Forecasts

Royal Zabeel (4/1), Billyb (9/2), So Quiet (5/1), Master Richard (5/1), Chalk Mountain (7/1), Alzahir (15/2), Zip (16/1), Documenting (18/1), How Impressive (20/1), Admiral D (22/1), Zero Carbon (33/1), Diamondonthehill (33/1), One More Dream (80/1), Three Yorkshiremen (125/1)

ALZAHIR has displayed the odd quirk or 2 but having shaped much better than the bare result when gambled on at Wolverhampton 3 weeks ago, Jennie Candlish's 4-y-o gets the nod to regain the winning thread from his sliding mark. Chalk Mountain produced a rare poor effort at this course last month, so he's fancied to quickly bounce back, while Zip and Royal Zabeel were 1-2 at Newcastle recently, so both need keeping a close eye on, too.
