Rory Rocket
RORY ROCKET did well to overcome the run of the race when opening his account at Kempton 6 weeks ago and he could be worth chancing from only 2 lb higher back on turf. The Thames Boatman, Spring Bloom and Sandscreendeliverd are a trio of fellow in-form sorts who also need factoring in.

Won back-to-back over 6f last summer and essentially held her form well thereafter, posting a solid second in handicap at Newmarket (5f) when last seen in October. Has tended to need a run or two to put her spot on, however.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewmarket (rowley)5fGoodFlat2/11Ascot5fSoftFlat10/11Goodwood6fGood to SoftFlat4/11Kempton Park6fStandard / SlowFlat5/12Chepstow6f 16yGoodFlat5/14- 2(6)The Thames BoatmanJ: Finley MarshT: Richard Hughes-146292Age 67/27/24/1

Multiple winner on all-weather who has a lower turf mark to work from and he ran well when second at Bath (5f) 5 days ago, just failing. Cheekpieces go back on in place of usual hood but he does need to cut out the slow starts.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosBath5f 10yFirm (Good to Firm in places)Flat2/7Lingfield Park6f 1yStandardFlat9/12Lingfield Park5f 6yStandardFlat2/5Chelmsford City5fStandardFlat6/9Lingfield Park5f 6yStandardFlat4/8- 7(9)Spring BloomJ: Darragh KeenanT: John ButlerU5737-2Age 96/17/113/2

Extended a long losing run for Darryll Holland last year, though ran respectably behind a well-backed winner at Leicester on stable debut/reappearance, and he's lurking on a handy mark if things do click.

Course winner who resumed winning ways in refitted cheekpieces in January. Exploits have been somewhat mixed in 4 subsequent outings, though, and now returns to turf operating 3 lb above last winning mark.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosKempton Park6fStandard / SlowFlat3/9Kempton Park6fStandard / SlowFlat6/7Kempton Park6fStandard / SlowFlat2/7Lingfield Park7f 1yStandardFlat6/9Kempton Park6fStandard / SlowFlat1/8- 4(4)SandscreendeliverdJ: Tom QueallyT: Peter Crate0319-42Age 47/17/115/2

Gained breakthrough success on the turf at Lingfield (5f) in August and showed benefit of reappearance run when second on all-weather there 6 weeks ago, headed post.

Dispelled 2 distinctly lesser efforts and was deserving of extra credit coming from the rear in a steadily run race when shedding maiden tag at Kempton (6f) 6 weeks ago. 2 lb rise looks fair and pick of his turf form came at this track last summer.

Successful on 2 of his 4 starts for Alice Haynes as a 2-y-o and matched that level on a couple of occasions on all-weather for present yard during the winter. Absent following a lesser display Southwell 4 months ago but surprise were this yard not to find the key to him.

Won first 2 starts on all-weather last year and ran best race on turf when second at Leicester in September. Well below form at Southwell later the same month, but she could still have more to offer if ready to go after 7 months off.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSouthwell4f 214yStandard / SlowFlat12/14Leicester5fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/8Southwell4f 214yStandardFlat1/10Ripon5fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat5/11Ayr5fGoodFlat3/7- 8(1)FaustusJ: Joe LeavyT: Rachel Cook & John Bridger6858-56Age 818/118/120/1

Capitalised on the ease in grade when back on the scoresheet at Newbury (5f) in July. More miss than hit since, including in pair of all-weather starts in January. Possible this run will bring him on with cheekpieces now refitted.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLingfield Park5f 6yStandardFlat6/6Lingfield Park5f 6yStandardFlat5/7Lingfield Park5f 6yStandardFlat8/9Lingfield Park5f 6yStandardFlat5/10Sandown Park5f 10ySoftFlat8/9
