Init Together⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-10| J: O J Orr| T: A W Carroll| OR: 61| CD

2/1

Has been thriving for current connections this year, landing a four-timer when winning 11-runner handicap (15/8) at this C&D 8 days ago, only kept up to his work late on. Leading claims on form.

Form: 54-1111

Mr Zippi³³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Sara Ender| OR: 60

8/1

Lightly-raced for his age but didn't settle when up in trip, 7/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 33 days ago. Back down in distance at a course he's proven to be effective at.

Form: 06364-6

Mr Nugget¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D M Simcock| OR: 60| BF

11/4

Turned a corner this year, another creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 17 days ago. Respected.

Form: 080-244

(6)

Market House^t¹³²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: S D Bowen| T: James Owen| OR: 58

7/2

Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Eleventh of 16 in handicap hurdle (18/1) at Tramore (16.6f, good to soft) on final run for Barry Connell. Makes handicap debut (after 6 months off) for yard that does very well with new recruits, and it would be significant if any market support comes his way.

Form: 000/

(7)

Oyamal¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Grace McEntee| T: P S McEntee| OR: 58

50/1

Has failed to beat a rival on his last three outings. Best to look elsewhere.

Form: 4/3298-0

(2)

Khangai^v⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Aidan Keeley| T: James Owen| OR: 56| C

5/1

Has been running creditably for most of the winter, winning three times. Creditable third of 11 in handicap (15/2) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 7 days ago and should be competitive again.

Form: 12-1343

(3)

Reason To Pass⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Joanna Mason| T: Ian Williams| OR: 45

80/1

17½ lengths ninth of 10 to Init Together in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 40/1) 42 days ago. Remains with little form.

Form: 77009-9

Forecasts

Init Together (2/1), Mr Nugget (11/4), Market House (7/2), Khangai (5/1), Mr Zippi (8/1), Oyamal (50/1), Reason To Pass (80/1)

INIT TOGETHER scored with enough in hand when landing his four-timer to suggest that a fifth victory is well within his capabilities. Mr Nugget is progressing in his own right but looks to have bumped into one here, and his turn may come down the line. James Owen's brace of runners, the consistent Khangai and stable-debutant Market House, are both worthy of an honourable mention.
