Blinkers worn by No. 1. Visor worn by No. 4. Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn by No. 5.

Running for the first time since Wind Surgery No. 11.

Stewards Note:

MISS CALCULATION: Following its run on 13/3/2023 it was reported that the horse suffered interference in running

ENDERMAN: Following its run on 18/2/2023 it was reported that the trainer could not explain the poor run.

LOCKDOWN LASS: Following its run on 29/11/2022 it was reported that the horse hung right handed throughout.

Probable S.P’s: 4-1 Martin’s Brig (IRE), 11-2 Miss Calculation (IRE), 8-1 Jackmeister Rudi (GB), 9-1 Enderman (GB), Lockdown Lass (GB), 12-1 Liberty Breeze (GB), 14-1 Brunello Breeze (GB), Rain Cap (GB), Revoquable (GB), 16-1 Tea Garden (GB), 28-1 Billy Wedge (GB)

Plenty in with a shout and it could just be worth chancing LOCKDOWN LASS. She wasn’t at her best on all weather late last year but did run well following a break last spring and with her rider taking off a handy 5lb, she could bounce back. Martin’s Brig and Jackmeister Rudi are others to consider, along with Miss Calculation.
