SATURDAY AGAIN shaped quite well in a first-time hood at Lingfield last month and promises to make more of an impact again in this low-grade handicap Electrocution is respected on the back of his Wolverhampton success, whilst Hove Ranger should also be in the mix if coping with the drop back in trip

SMARTER
Cases can be made fora numberofthese, but it could beworth sidingwithAPACHE GREEN,who was demoted having edged right under pressure over C&D last month and his Wolverhampton effort 4 days lateris easily excused. Simply Blue is down to a career-low mark and he can provide most resistance returned to 1m.

Sole filly Helga relished the step up in trip when getting off the mark over C&D last month and she could be the biggest danger

TYGER BAY: Following its run on 18/12/2025 it was reported that the horse hung right-handed.

JESSE LUC has shaped encouragingly on both starts since returning from a 4-month break and is very much of interest now back on his last winning mark. Tyger Bay ran a cracker in the Timeform Sprint Series Final at Chelmsford and warrants obvious respect back down in grade, whilst Invincible Speed remains favourably treated on old form following his recent Lingfield success.
