Major Jumbo 1pt win only 12/1 (400Asc) Iwac

A very competitive handicap in which a case can be made for over half of the field. The selection comes here however sitting on a very attractive mark and dropping into class 3 handicap company for the first time since April 2018, so it would be fair to say that the sights have been lowered somewhat. Still has a bit to prove having been very lightly raced in the past 12 months and not running quite up to the level that he was 12 months ago but his latest run was a step back in the right direction and could have put him just right for a big run today. Has a very talented 7lb claimer onboard today and should put in a big run for a yard who are starting to find a few winners.

Wild Flower 1pt win only 11/2 (615Chep) Nap

Turned out very quickly here following a lesser run last time out. Had earlier put in a big run over CD on his yard debut off the back of a 245 day break so we are willing to draw a line through that run 2 days ago. Has also won over CD with previous yard which gives us more confidence returning here. Tyler Heard takes over in the saddle taking off a very valuable 5lb in what looks a competitive race and his record for the yard is a very good one and reads, 5 wins and 3 placed from 14 runners for a 35% win strike and a LSP of +26.

Winklevi 1pt win only 13/2 (815Chep) Nnb

The favourite here looks to have been found a race by Richard Hannon but it will be the first time that he takes on his elders and there are a couple in here from very shrewd yards that will be making sure he doesn’t get it all his own way. Well there aren’t many shrewder that David Evans and we plum for his runner who is dropping in class coming here and back down in trip on much more suitable ground. Earlier he had put in a big run at Sandown when 3rd in a race which has worked out pretty well since and that run was only his second since joining the yard and having not been seen for over 1000 days. Better can be expected today, how much better however is yet to be seen.

Rattling Rosie 0.5pt EW 28/1 4 places SkyBet (800Ches) Outsider

Unexposed 3 year old dropping back in trip to a more suitable one today. Raced keenly last time out and was unable to see out the race that was over a much further trip so can be forgiven that run. Earlier had put in an encouraging run at Wolverhampton, a yard that the trainer likes to send his youngsters to and could well show huge improvement today from a stall that holds a big advantage. Cheekpieces on for the first time and well worth a punt with 4 places available.

Existent 1pt win only 11/2 (410Newm) Nb

A comfortable winner at Newmarket back in October in a race that has turned out a good few winners since. Not just winners either but some decent looking sorts. That win came on heavy ground but this Kingman colt is looking very versatile and should cope with this quicker ground today. Still fairly lightly raced and made a pleasing reappearance following an 8 month absence last time out. Should kick on from that as he looked in need of the run and could well have improved over that break too.
