pulled hard, held up in rear, pushed along and steady headway from 2f out, hung badly left from over 1f out, raced awkwardly but pressed leaders inside final furlong, cajoled along to lead final 110yds, ran on

Ice Cool Harry

9st 7lb

J: John Fahy

T: Clive Cox

Unraced as 2yo; off the mark on third start, a 6f novice on Lingfield turf, and things didn't go his way in two handicaps after; retains potential and refitting the hood is likely to help; ran green over 5f on Wolverhampton debut but of interest back on Tapeta despite the layoff.

Veteran who has won 16 races, including four in 2023; his last success was off a similar mark over C&D in November and he was only just caught at Lingfield on Sunday; strong claims.

J: Cieren Fallon

T: David O’Meara

Veteran with 18 wins on his CV, including over C&D; last success was from the front at Redcar (6f, good to firm) in May but he's been well held in both runs since; bit to prove again but has possibilities if he can bounce back.

Form & Verdict
All three wins have come at Southwell (6f) including on his penultimate run, but he was a close fourth in a Class 4 at Lingfield last time; still has scope for further progress and he's respected back on Tapeta.

9st 4lb

J: Frederick Larson

T: Michael Appleby

Went close over C&D last month and was a fair fourth at Southwell (first-time cheekpieces) last time; hard to rule out a good run with visor now tried but he's not easy to predict and losing run is mounting up.

Patchy form since winning off 6lb higher at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last May and has a bit to find with Many A Star and Ormolulu on last month's C&D running; application of cheekpieces needs to make a difference.

Form & Verdict
Triple turf winner at up to 7f; well handicapped on his best AW form last winter but he's 0-16 in this sphere and was always in rear after a slow start at Kempton (6f) last month; others preferred.

Four-time turf winner from 5.5f-7f; 0-19 on AW but he's been placed on Polytrack and Tapeta; has had a short break since going very close at Windsor (6f, good) in September and he's a player if he can reproduce that form.

Form & Verdict
Progressive 4yo who improved his record to 2-6 when winning a C&D handicap (lost a shoe on the way to post) last month; that was a narrow success but he battled well to beat a clear second and a 2lb rise looks fair; respected.

J: Billy Loughnane

His last three wins have come on the AW at Newcastle but he is effective on turf and this mark shouldn't be beyond him; stall 15 is a severe hindrance though.

He had dropped down the weights prior to a ready C&D win in December, his third course success; a 4lb rise still leaves him feasibly weighted and he is high on the list.
