Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Harry Davies| T: M Meade| OR: 85| D

Dragon Icon⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian| OR: 84| C| D

11/4

Went close in handicap at Newcastle in December off 4 lb higher and solid third at same track in January, both over this trip. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Ascot (6/1) 40 days ago, again failing to justify single-figure SP when tried in hood.

Form: 82-3507

Savvy Kingdom⁵⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: S Woods| OR: 81| C| D

10/1

Performs much better on AW surfaces than turf, winning at Newcastle and placing at Lingfield this season. Fourth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City over 10f (7/1) 50 days ago, running creditably at longer trip. Returns to preferred 8f trip and respected.

Form: 7/31664

Rhapsody⁷³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Cieren Fallon| T: W J Haggas| OR: 84| D

11/1

Disappointing since winning on debut, most recently eighth of 10 in listed race at Goodwood (12/1) 73 days ago. Makes handicap debut with tongue strap removed.

Form: 1-698

Rey De La Batalla⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Tyler Heard| T: S Dow| OR: 78| CD

28/1

Won at this C&D in July but finished 12th of 13 in handicap here (9/1) 7 days ago, suffering a tough trip racing wide. Drawn wide.

Notimeforchitchat^b⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 84| CD

11/1

Won at this course and distance (11/1) 56 days ago but was last of 9 at Ascot (8/1) over 10f on turf 40 days ago, making no response. Likely to appreciate return to all-weather surface where all wins have come.

Form: 0-10219

He's A Gentleman^v¹⁰⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: S Donohoe| T: H Palmer| OR: 77| D

28/1

Won 7f AW handicap (10/1) in January, then sixth of 14 in handicap at Newmarket (22/1) 109 days ago, shaped better for the run after a break. May be more competitive on return to all-weather.

Form: 584-186

(11)

Zoffandia^t⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Kieran Burke| OR: 75| CD

C&D winner at Kempton in February (22/1), but followed with three disappointing runs. Back-to-form fifth of 13 in handicap at Kempton over C&D (25/1) 7 days ago, ran on late after breathing operation. Player.

Form: 410705

50/1

Showed ability when second in handicap before finishing 11th of 13 at Wolverhampton (40/1) 384 days ago, weakening quickly after working hard from wide draw. Faces stiff task after long absence.

9/2

Won both AW novice races before disappointing when seventh of 10 at Ascot (5/2) 103 days ago, unable to sustain promising run. Worth another chance back on AW.

Form: 1-17

Port Road¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Paddy Bradley| T: S Dow| OR: 73

Consistent performer but remains a long-standing maiden and others preferred for the win.

Forecasts

Dragon Icon (11/4), Sheriff's Court (7/2), Rogue Encore (4/1), Niminy Piminy (9/2), Run With It (5/1), Zoffandia (15/2), Savvy Kingdom (10/1), Rhapsody (11/1), Notimeforchitchat (11/1), Port Road (18/1), Rey De La Batalla (28/1), Sierra Blanca (28/1), He's A Gentleman (28/1), Devious Devan (50/1)

NIMINY PIMINY failed to meet expectations on very fast ground at Ascot on handicap bow having won her first 2 starts and is worth another chance back on AW. Zoffandia, a C&D winner off this mark in February, returned to form here last week after a breathing operation. Rogue Encore comes here in good heart after a narrow defeat at Newcastle.
