- Warren Fentiman / D M Loughnane
|
|
|
7/2 |
City Escape
Missed the break last Tuesday but still managed to break a 17-race losing run and record her fourth C&D success; has a 4lb penalty for that (although just 3lb higher) but every chance of going in again.

Busby
Seen more often over further these days, but last week still managed to win over C&D for the fifth time; that was a 0-50 classified event and his 4lb penalty means he is 7lb higher than when last successful in a handicap, but he still commands respect.

- Non Runner / Mrs Stella Barclay

|
|
8/1 |
Balqaa
Won twice over 1m on Tapeta elsewhere in September and 4lb lower than for the most recent; stays at least this far, but she needs to better her last two performances.

- Sir Laurence Graff
- Jordan Williams / C Banham

|
15/2 |
Sir Laurence Graff
Both wins on Polytrack and only been narrowly beaten in his last two starts at Lingfield (1m2f); however, his record around here reads 07578 which is a cause for concern.

- Forest Haze
- Fred Daly / Martin Dunne

|
100/1 |
Forest Haze
Unplaced in all six starts and although she got a little closer in first-time blinkers at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack; 125-1) nine days ago, still only finished sixth of nine; best watched for now.

- Olivia Tubb / J G Portman

|
|
13/2 |
Brinton
Running better since returning in 0-50 classified events in January, narrowly getting off the mark at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) ten days ago; has a bit more to do back in a handicap and still has to convince with her stamina, but she still makes more appeal than many.

- Ashley Lewis / G & J Moore

|
6/1 |
Fascinating Lips
Winner of two Lingfield handicaps (1m2f, Polytrack) and a novice hurdle for this yard; didn't enjoy the best of runs on his return at the former track three weeks ago, but needs to improve for the switch to blinkers on Tapeta debut.

- Tommie Jakes / J R Jenkins

|
125/1 |
Indian Romance
0-8; twice placed at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) for Rae Guest last August, but has shown little in either start for this yard; plenty more needed in the returning hood.

- Prince Hector
- Tom Kiely-Marshall / J Bedi
|
|
|
12/1 |
Prince Hector
2-33 with both wins coming over C&D; 3lb lower than for the most recent, but he ended last year quietly and has enough to prove back from another 84 days off.
