Prediction Leader

Jakarta (GB)

Jakarta (GB)

0%

Won on good and soft ground as a 2yo; nearly added a Newmarket 1m handicap during a light second season and fast ground (for which she's been withdrawn before) was perhaps not ideal when down the field 13 days ago; better expected.

Rest of field

Cristo (GB)

Cristo (GB)

0%

Both wins have been at Chelmsford over 1m2f; capable of winning on turf and had Silca Bay behind when going close at Salisbury last time (1m, good; effective on soft); more solid than most in here.

City Of God (IRE)

Left Karl Burke after winning an AW seller in February (1m); nearer last than first in two 1m handicaps for current yard.

All three wins for Alice Haynes were on ground slower than good; had lost her way but the signs have been a tad more encouraging for James Owen and she's on a dangerous mark.

Rising Force (IRE)

Rising Force (IRE)

0%

He's 2-5 for this yard, the wins over 1m on good to soft and good to firm; a slow start was no help last time at Thirsk but he might be high in the weights now.

Silca Bay (GB)

Silca Bay (GB)

0%

All three wins on the AW and ground this slow will be a first for him; however, his usual cheekpieces are back on after keeping on well for fourth at Salisbury (1m, good) and he enters the equation.

Port Erin (IRE)

Port Erin (IRE)

0%

Won three 1m handicaps (AW/good) last year and was fourth in an earlier race on this card 12 months ago when the ground was good to soft; the clear negative is complete no-shows in his last three starts.

Ararat (IRE)

Ararat (IRE)

0%

A five-time winner but over shorter distances and the fact he often front-runs could count against him now trying 1m for the first time; well beaten over 6f on recent stable debut.

Canopus (IRE)

Canopus (IRE)

0%

A 1m maiden winner for Ed Walker; no worthwhile form over hurdles or on the Flat (two handicaps) for this operation.
