ECHO VALLEY: Following its run on 17/2/2026 it was reported that the horse hung right-handed off the bend.

Probable S.P’s: 3-1 Eskimo Pie (IRE), 4-1 Deedaydiva (IRE), 6-1 Botagoz (IRE), 9-1 Concealed Passion (GB), 11-1 Brighlee (FR), 12-1 Shadida (GB), 22-1 Midnight Steppers (IRE), Withtearsinmyeyes (IRE), 25-1 Palace Artois (GB), Tashi Delek (IRE), 100-1 Cortado Girl (GB), Echo Valley (GB), 300-1 Tiny Tiger (GB)

PLAY SMARTER

Alan King’s DEEDAYDIVAhas had the form ofher Sandown success boosted, including this week, and is selected to defy a penalty on her return, perhaps at the main expense of Eskimo Pie. Roger Varian debut scorer Botagoz should have more to offer, while Concealed Passion and Shadida are newcomers who make paper appeal.

Roger Varian’s EGOTISTICAL advanced her form when runner-up at Newcastle last time and with the step back up to 6f a plus she looks the way to go Hen Party rates just the pick on form and seems sure to go well again in her bid to get off the mark at the seventh attempt. Frantic, Bintaryana and Always Perfect appeal as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

MAID IN DEVON should be sharper with her handicap debut/reappearance behind her and gets the vote for Rod Millman. Rosieisme Darling will be a threat if she can carry this winter’s good all-weather form over to the turf Seven of Hearts and Takincareofbizness appeals as possible improvers now handicapping, particularly if the betting speaks in their favour

KOKANEE looked an unlucky loser when runner-up at Pontefract on his recent return and is weighted to go one better now off just a 1lb higher mark. Roger Varian’s Influential is much less exposed and could prove the main danger on his first go in handicap company. Both Commander of Life and Highland Olly both need factoring into this open handicap too.
