16:55 Cooramook
An interesting little race. There are three newcomers to look at, but COORAMOOK has shown ability and should still have more to give, so she’s just preferred to I Maximus, who sets a fair standard.
17:30 Blue Sky Boy
Each of these have a chance, with none of them fully convincing, but maybe BLUE SKY BOY can come good. He was runner-up over C&D in a higher grade two starts back. Star Legend is second choice.
18:00 Olympic Melody
A weak-looking race, but OLYMPIC MELODY, Watkins, and Top Star, who each happen to be debuting for new trainers, may improve and preference is for the first-named.
18:30 Bust A Moon
A weak race in which BUST A MOON looks a potential improver for a new trainer on his return, preferred to Inconspicuous and Rock Master.
19:00 Merrimack
This field has 66 wins between them, and the most appealing option is MERRIMACK, who has twice finished runner-up here and had excuses at Lingfield on his latest start. General Assembly is second pick.
19:30 Once Adaay
Francisco did very well to be placed over 6f on his last two outings and almost certainly has the raw ability to overcome his current mark but his tendency to start slowly is holding him back. Preference is for three-time course winner ONCE ADAAY, who returned from a layoff with a good run here in January and remains well handicapped. Stella Hogan and Flag Carrier are others to consider.
20:00 Wheres Freddy
A competitive handicap in which WHERES FREDDY makes most appeal, coming into this in form, handily drawn, and under a top jockey. The lightly raced A Major Payne is second choice.
20:30 Lady Chartwell
Lightening Mann has plenty of scope to progress from his recent 1m Lingfield maiden win, but perhaps the most interesting runner is LADY CHARTWELL, who looked promising over 7f on turf last summer and now moves up in trip for her seasonal/handicap debut. Ruling Master can also make his presence felt.
