Lets Go Hugo

9st 9lb

J: Tom Kiely-Marshall

T: Ollie Pears

Three of his four wins have been on AW, including one over C&D; didn't fare too badly in a similar event when fourth of seven at Redcar (5f, good to firm) nine days ago and the return to AW could see him go close.

9st 9lb

J: Harry Russell

T: Ollie Pears

Lost his way in the spring but, following a two-month break, was placed off reduced mark at Newcastle (5f, AW) a fortnight ago; today's return to turf is probably not ideal but he still enters calculations on first dip into this basement grade.

Form & Verdict
C&D winner last June but she's been unplaced in all five starts since joining this stable; didn't see it out over 7f at Brighton last time but should appreciate this drop back in trip; hood is removed and she has each-way chance.

Apples Angel

9st 9lb

J: Owen Lewis

Unplaced all four starts for new stable this season but was denied a clear run when fourth in this grade here (6f, good to firm) two starts ago and is probably worth another crack at 7f; could have a say.

Form & Verdict
Often front-runner; won twice on turf last year; ran well on reappearance at Chepstow (5f) and another solid effort when fourth behind three 3yos at Yarmouth last time; 0-44 on the AW but she has finished runner-up five times.

Belied 50-1 odds and put in fairly good front-running shift when third of six in this grade at Wolverhampton (5f, AW; refitted hood) last week, his second start for Derek Shaw; also suited by turf but others appeal more all the same.

Won twice on the AW in February 2024, including over C&D; without a win since but he ran well when runner-up behind Let's Go Hugo at Wolverhampton on first start for 177 days; may come on for that and he could go well.

Betting Forcast

6/4 Lets Go Hugo, 16/1 Apples Angel, 3/1 Banana, 11/1 Battle Point, 28/1 Bluesy Moon, 14/1 Bust A Moon, 3/1 Jungle Dance, 18/1 Lochaber, 33/1 Rainbow Sorbet, 25/1 Viennetta

Verdict

Banana can go well and is second choice behind LET’S GO HUGO (nap) who won a similar event in good style at Wolverhampton eight days ago. Apple’s Angel drops back in trip with each-way claims. Jungle Dance, who was behind the selection last time, can also be considered. [Harry March]
