Tuscan Star²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: A M Balding| OR: 84

9/4

Maiden/novice winner who improved again to complete an AW hat-trick in 2025 on 11f Kempton handicap debut 26 days ago. Looks capable of even better so a 4 lb rise may not stop him.

Form: 9-111

Kate O'Riley¹²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Hector Crouch| T: M L W Bell| OR: 78| C

5/4

Thrice-raced winner. 13/2, won 12-runner maiden at this course (8.6f) in November, despite looking unsuited by the drop in trip. This significantly longer trip should suit on handicap debut. Open to improvement.

Form: 521-

Magna Gee Gee²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: George Wood| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 72| C

17/2

Course winner over 9.5f in December. 2¾ lengths fifth of 6 to Tuscan Star in handicap at Kempton (11f, 17/2) 26 days ago. 5 lb better off with Andrew Balding's charge now but it doesn't look enough.

Form: 5741-45

Ray Gun^t⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Saffie Osborne| T: J A Osborne| OR: 70| D

3/1

Winner at Kempton (1½m) in February. Good second over C&D and at Southwell since. No reason why he won't go well again.

Form: 5-86122

Forecasts

Kate O'Riley (5/4), Tuscan Star (9/4), Ray Gun (3/1), Magna Gee Gee (17/2)

TUSCAN STAR was quite a comfortable winner on his Kempton handicap debut last month and a 4 lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent him making it a perfect 4-4 in 2025. This trip should suit November's course maiden winner Kate O'Riley and she can follow Andrew Balding's charge home in a race of interest despite the small field.
