Man Is King

9st 10lb

J: Charles Bishop

T: David Flood

Gained his first win on turf when landing a handicap at Bath (1m, good) this month and followed up there over 1m2f (firm; made all) six days ago; holds good claims dropping back in trip under a 4lb penalty but any rain probably won't be ideal.

Record is only 2-52 but he gained the latest success in comfortable fashion at Bath (1m, good) last week and warrants respect under 4lb penalty; recorded the other win over 1m2f (on AW).

Form & Verdict
All three wins have been at Wolverhampton (9.4f/1m4f) and latest was last March; went close behind Marinakis over C&D on his penultimate run but he's not easy to predict and was beaten 12l at Wolverhampton last time; comes with risk.

Prince Hector

9st 1lb

J: Shay Farmer

T: Jessica Bedi

Kept to AW in the main nowadays and winless since last March; however, he ran well last August when he last tackled turf and the return of cheekpieces (replacing blinkers) may well be in his favour; also has a first-time tongue-tie; could be involved.

11/1

Form: 45-915 CD

6 yo Gelding

OR: 49

Form & Verdict
Has a patchy profile and was down the field at Lingfield last time, but he justified support when landing a classified event over C&D (beat Prince Hector) on his penultimate run; could be a big factor if he can rediscover his spark and he's 2-2 at Chelmsford.

Form & Verdict
Ended his losing run when scoring at Lingfield (1m2f) last month and he backed that up with a creditable second on his return visit last weekend; usually comes from off the pace and could be a major force again if he gets the breaks.

0-8 but she went close in a Southwell handicap (1m4f) in October and travelled well for a long way when third at Chelmsford (1m5f) the following month; left David Menuisier for 10,000gns since; still has potential at middle distances and she's a big player back in trip for new trip.
