Al Waqidi^t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: Saffie Osborne| T: J A Osborne| OR: 74

9/1

Clearly has more than share of problems but shaped well when sixth of 9 at this C&D in February. Unable to build on it since, though, finishing 13th of 14 in 10f handicap at Newcastle (40/1) 13 days ago.

Nahy^h1,t²⁰⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Jack Morland| OR: 73

25/1

Similar form in his 3 novice races this winter, finishing third of 12 at Wolverhampton (9/4) when unsuited by drop to 8.7f. Makes handicap debut in first-time hood for new stable and may need further.

Form: 6-43

Arctician²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-10| J: Paddy Bradley| T: S Dow| OR: 71| C

16/1

Ran creditably when fourth of 10 in handicap at Kempton over 7f (33/1) 21 days ago, first run in 12 weeks (should come on for that). Below mark of January win and has course-winning form.

Due West⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 75

8/15

Lightly-raced 3-y-o who is going the right way, neck second of 6 in 8.5f handicap at Epsom (10/3) 9 days ago, making course specialist pull out all the stops and well clear of remainder. Looks well handicapped from the same mark.

Form: 64-22

Saxonia^p¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 75| D

13/2

Never out of frame in 6 AW starts and won a 5-runner handicap at Pontefract (3/1) 17 days ago, holding on gamely in first-time cheekpieces. Should remain competitive on return to this surface.

Form: 184421

Lord Montague¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: George Bass| T: J Channon| OR: 74

10/1

Neck second of 11 in maiden over C&D before winning at 4/9 in 3-runner maiden at Brighton 15 days ago. Needs to improve for handicap debut but he's bred to be useful so that cannot be ruled out.

Form: 2621

Inns Of Fear^t¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: P Cosgrave| T: G Boughey| OR: 73

12/1

Consistent rather than progressive, possibly in need of the run when third of 9 in maiden at this C&D (4/1) 13 days ago, not unduly punished. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 32-243

Forecasts

Due West (8/15), Sheikh Raj (11/2), Saxonia (13/2), Al Waqidi (9/1), Lord Montague (10/1), Inns Of Fear (12/1), Spirit Of Albion (14/1), Arctician (16/1), Tomorrow Day (20/1), Nahy (25/1)

DUE WEST progressed again when pushing a course specialist all the way at Epsom last time and from the same mark, he looks ready to go one place better. Saxonia comes here in winning form after a game success at Pontefract, while Lord Montague may also have more to offer in a race in which the 3-y-os are expected to come to the fore.
