Diomed Spirit²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 82| CD

13/2

C&D winner. Respectable third of 6 in handicap at this C&D (6/1) 28 days ago. Should be on the premises.

Form: 803-873

(4)

Existent⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Jack Doughty⁽³⁾| T: S C Williams| OR: 80| BF| CD

5/2

Untrustworthy individual. C&D winner. Thirty-six runs since last win in 2022. Respectable third of 7 in handicap (11/4) at Southwell (5f) 9 days ago. Like stablemate Diomed Spirit, he could have a part to play.

Form: 22-3343

(3)

El Bufalo^b,t¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: D Egan| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 77| CD

15/8

Blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at this C&D (3/1) 19 days ago, keeping on well. 4 lb rise may not stop him from going in again.

Form: 25-5361

Fidelius¹⁸⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 75| CD

11/4

C&D winner. Creditable second of 13 in handicap at York (5f, soft, 16/1) when last seen in September. 2-6 on the AW and surely won't be far away if ready to roll.

The Defiant^p,t¹⁰^{(ex 4)}

Age: 9| Weight: 8-5| J: Jack Dace⁽⁷⁾| T: L A Dace| OR: 58| CD

16/1

C&D winner. 11/1, won 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 10 days ago. This will be more demanding under a penalty.

Form: 42-2571

Forecasts

El Bufalo (15/8), Existent (5/2), Fidelius (11/4), Diomed Spirit (13/2), The Defiant (16/1)

The vote goes to EL BUFALO, who responded well to the first-time blinkers when making every post a winning one over C&D recently and this 4 lb higher mark should be comfortably within reach. The Stuart Williams-trained duo Diomed Spirit and Existent can fill the places.
