Marmoga^p1,t²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Charlie Bennett| T: I Mohammed| OR: 65| D

16/1

Left previous efforts behind when winning 7-runner handicap (6/1) at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) just under 3 weeks ago by neck from Spanish Mane, taking a while to get going before seeing out the 1f longer trip strongly. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Fancied to go close.

Form: 8/581

Clipsham La Habana⁸⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 64

11/2

Twenty-two runs since last win in 2022. Ran poorly when ninth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 25/1) 3 months ago. Not easy to make a case for.

Form: 6730-79

(10)

Gamblers Kitty¹⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Aidan Keeley| T: C A Dwyer| OR: 64

11/2

Probably went off too hard back up in trip when eighth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 15/2) 6 months ago. Ran well on penultimate start so merits consideration.

Form: 366428-

Danzart³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Hart| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 62| D

6/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 40/1, left the firm impression he should have finished closer after 7 months off when sixth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 34 days ago, never nearer. Expected to be bang there back on turf.

Form: 47320-6

(9)

Travis^p¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: S H James| T: G A Harker| OR: 62

12/1

Well below form on return when eighth of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Will need to leave that effort miles behind.

Form: 50077-8

(8)

Carlton And Co¹⁷²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 62| D

8/1

5/1, again ran well when second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 6 months ago. Can give a good account provided he's ready to roll.

Form: 312722-

(3)

Ratafia¹⁸⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Dylan Hogan| T: M Herrington| OR: 61| D

11/1

Made a winning return last year and doubled his tally for the campaign at Yarmouth in August. Ended with a couple of below-par efforts and now returns just 1 lb above his last winning mark.

Form: 301967-

(11)

Spanish Mane^p²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 9-4| J: C R Lyons⁽⁷⁾| T: J & S Birkett| OR: 60| D

18/1

10/1, usually needs her first outing but ran well after 7 months off when neck second of 7 to Marmoga in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Can build on that here.

Form: 04164-2

(7)

Diligent Henry^b¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 57| D

7/1

16/1, showed improved form to get off the mark in 11-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 18 days ago, quickening clear entering final 1f. This just his second turf outing (well beaten last summer at Beverley) but should be in the mix with a repeat from 6 lb higher.

Form: 80223-1

(4)

Tough At The Top^b¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-6| J: J P Sullivan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 48

25/1

25/1 and blinkered for 1st time, bit below form eighth of 17 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Hard to recommend on what he's shown on track so far.

Form: 5-5688

(6)

Create^p²³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-4| J: L Morris| T: S Dixon| OR: 46| CD

9/2

C&D winner last summer. 16/1, returned to form from out of the blue when third of 10 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 23 days ago, finishing well. Certainly not out of things from the same mark.

Form: 06-7083

Forecasts

Create (9/2), Clipsham La Habana (11/2), Gamblers Kitty (11/2), Danzart (6/1), Diligent Henry (7/1), Carlton And Co (8/1), Ratafia (11/1), Travis (12/1), Marmoga (16/1), Spanish Mane (18/1), Tough At The Top (25/1)

DANZART left the firm impression he should have finished closer than sixth on return at Newcastle just under 5 weeks ago so, back on turf and from the same mark, Stella Barclay's 7-y-o gets the nod to come out on top. His main danger may emerge from Marmoga, who made a winning turf/handicap debut when just denying Spanish Mane at Yarmouth earlier in the month. Create And Carlton and Co are also considered.
