Alpine Sierra
ALPINE SIERRA has solid credentials at this venue with previous course and distance success and wasn't disgraced in a better race 12 days ago. The 3lb drop and return to 10f should suit ideally. Hackney Diamonds won at Southwell recently and should also appreciate returning to a longer trip. Time Turner switches to visor but attitude remains questionable.

Consistent performer at Newcastle who has won over course and distance previously. Finished 5th of 12 in a handicap over 8f at this course (5/1) 12 days ago, wasn't disgraced in a much better race than normally required. Down 3lbs in the handicap and back up in trip to 10f which could suit.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewcastle1m 5yStandardFlat5/12Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat5/12Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat3/7Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat5/12Newcastle1m 2f 42yStandardFlat5/13- 3(9)Time TurnerJ: Mr Simon WalkerT: Edward Bethell/9746-4Age 43/17/210/3

Fourth at Lingfield 39 days ago before finishing fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (3/1) 8 days ago, not impressing with attitude under pressure.

Inconsistent performer who was runner-up at Wolverhampton (12f) before winning at Southwell (11f, 10/1). Finished 7th at Wolverhampton (5/2) when carrying penalty.

Ran well when second of 9 over C&D (10/1) last August before finishing seventh of 12 in a handicap over 8f at Newcastle (8/1) 65 days ago. Without a win in 27 starts.

Two-time course winner who was fourth here 36 days ago but missed the break and finished 11th of 13 in handicap at Southwell (9/1) 23 days ago. Significant step up in trip from usual 7f races is a notable factor.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSouthwell7f 14yStandardFlat11/13Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat4/11Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat12/13Beverley7f 96yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat10/10Doncaster7f 6yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat4/11- 10(4)BusbyJ: Miss Natasha CooksonT: Philip Kirby569870-Age 1111/114/112/1

Lightly-raced gelding finished 7th of 9 in novice race at Catterick (20/1) 84 days ago when reportedly racing too freely and never involved. Making handicap debut with significant step up in trip which could bring improvement based on pedigree.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCatterick Bridge5f 212yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat7/9Southwell6f 16yStandardFlat5/8Chester7f 1yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat5/7- 4(1)Quintus ArriusJ: Mr Joshua BrownT: Peter Niven9/0608-Age 612/112/111/1

Poor form throughout 2025, including finishing last of 8 at this course and distance in July. Last of 7 (28/1) in a novice hurdle at Market Rasen last August, struggled after brief headway.
