Promising start last autumn, ending with 7f Kempton novice success. Still in contention when jinked and unseated rider at Sandown last month and likely capable of better yet. Blinkers on first time.

Confirmed debut promise when running out an easy winner of a Sandown maiden (7f) in August. Well held in Greenham on return but must be respected now sent handicapping.

Ready winner at Ripon (6f) in July. Better form when second in conditions event there next time and excuses last 2 starts. Opening mark looks high enough on return, however.

Off the mark at Newcastle in January and too free when only fourth of 5 on handicap bow at Doncaster (8f, good) 11 days ago. This shorter trip should suit but others more appealing.

Bounced back to form, on return from 7 months off, when making all in 11-runner handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 15 days ago. 4 lb rise fair and is a likely contender.

Won on debut in July and posted several creditable efforts in defeat thereafter, including when third in nursery at Doncaster when last seen in October. Others appear better treated, however.

Dual juvenile winner who found a little improvement when third of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Return to shorter trip a plus and not out of things.

Won 1 of 3 starts as a juvenile and posted encouraging third of 6 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) on return 28 days ago. One for the shortlist.

Kept to AW in 4 starts thus far but was disappointing at Wolverhampton last time and has something to prove on turf debut.

Signed off last term with decisive success in 9-runner nursery at Newcastle (7.1f). 7 lb higher on return, however, and this looks a much deeper contest.

Pontefract winner on heavy ground in October and back to that sort of form when second in handicap at Chester (6.1f, soft) last week. Worth a crack at this longer trip but rain would aid his cause.

Forecasts

Northern Express (10/3), Huddleton Mac (10/3), Rifleman (5/1), Wobwobwob (7/1), Captain Cooper (17/2), Sadiqaa (17/2), Bowman (11/1), Gioia Cieca (14/1), Pivoting (20/1), Elakazaam (28/1), Daphne May (33/1), Red Fascinator (40/1)

Verdict

Plenty with claims here, including NORTHERN EXPRESS, who figures off a handy mark and should come on from his pleasing Beverley reappearance. Rifleman and Bowman rate the principal dangers.

  1. NORTHERN EXPRESS (IRE)
  2. RIFLEMAN (IRE)
  3. BOWMAN (IRE)
