4/1

Won 4 times at this course in 2023. Stepped up on recent outing when third of 7 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f, 10/3) 22 days ago, despite having been very slowly away. Merits consideration back here.

12/1

Latest win at Haydock in September. In first-time visor, ran creditably when third of 11 in handicap at Kempton (12f, 14/1) 24 days ago. Usual cheekpieces reapplied and he could be in the mix back down in grade.

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: A J Farragher| T: James Owen| OR: 60

16/1

Took advantage of drop in grade when successful at Wolverhampton (16.6f) in October. However, found it tougher under a penalty when fourth of 7 in handicap (6/1) at the same C&D 78 days ago. Has work to do.

Delta Legend^p¹³

With cheekpieces applied on first run since leaving Hilal Kobeissi, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 10/3) 13 days ago. Has yet to win at further than 1m, though, as he moves back up in grade.

Blue Sky Boy⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: T E Whelan| T: P Attwater| OR: 63

15/2

Making second handicap start, had the run of the race and ran up to best when third of 8 at Wolverhampton (14f, 9/2) 4 days ago. Task is now to build on his recent run.

Form: 4987-3

Carlton^p²^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Darragh Keenan| T: James Owen| OR: 55| CD

11/10

Unbeaten in 3 starts for current yard, completing a C&D hat-trick when landing 11-runner handicap (4/5) 2 days ago. Scored with plenty in hand on Thursday and he's the one to beat under a penalty.

Form: 63611-1

Sullivan Bay^v³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: J & S Best| OR: 58| BF| C

7/1

Both career wins at this course, with latest success over 2m in October. Again ran well when ½-length third of 8 to Carlton in handicap (11/4) at this C&D 30 days ago and he could be thereabouts once more.

Form: 997133-

(5)

Albert Lasker^p,h,t¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Jason Watson| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 60| D

6/1

Soon returned to form when finally getting off the mark in 8-runner handicap at Southwell (14.1f, 7/2) 13 days ago, seeing out the race well back down in trip. Will need to find more back up in grade.

Forecasts

Carlton (7/4), Tradesman (9/2), Blue Sky Boy (13/2), Albert Lasker (15/2), Sullivan Bay (15/2), Haliphon (10/1), Delta Legend (14/1), Addosh (16/1), Star Legend (16/1), Alright Sunshine (33/1)

CARLTON has thrived since joining the James Owen yard, overcoming a lack of pace in the race to complete a C&D hat-trick on Thursday, and he looks to hold leading claims under a penalty. Sullivan Bay also arrives in good heart and could be the main danger, with 4-time course winner Tradesman completing the shortlist.
