AWC Season 14 Has Begun Handicap (Div 2)

Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Form	Jockey / Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
5th	1	2	Sea Legend (G) H Disappointed when last seen at Redcar in April but scored twice over C&D earlier this year and needs monitoring in market on return here.	318318	Lauren Young J S Goldie	6	63kg	15 14/1
7th	2	10	Hostility (G) Not the most straightforward but landed a couple of 1m Carlisle handicaps this summer. Been a mixed bag since, however, and others appeal more.	513936	K Stott D O'Meara	4	62.6kg	11 10/1
6th	3	5	Princess Honey Bee (F) Found some improvement when chasing home a useful prospect at Ripon (1m) in July and ran to similar level when opening account at Lingfield (1m) last month. Not in same form over longer trip at Yarmo…	4-22416	D Allan Craig Lidster	3	62.1kg	11 10/1
11th	4	9	Arkenstaar (G) P Thrived last autumn when a 3-time 1m winner on turf. Ran well when third at Hamilton on return in May but below par all 4 starts since.	4-30680	Sean Kirrane M Dods	6	61.7kg	51 50/1
8th	5	1	Starliner (G) Runner-up 4 of 5 starts prior to winning C&D handicap last month. Needs to bounce back from a poor run at Ayr since, though.	262218	William Pyle Miss L A Perratt	5	61.2kg	8.50 15/2
9th	6	8	Second Fiddle (M) FAV Multiple course winner who returned to form when creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (4/1) over C&D 8 days ago, never nearer. Races off same mark here and must enter calculations.	334204	A Mullen I Jardine	7	60.8kg	4 3/1
12th	7	7	Henry Halflight (G) Confirmed his debut promise at the second attempt when winning a C&D maiden in March and back to that sort of form when good sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (7f, 66/1) 19 days ago. More needed…	271806	Billy Garritty L Bailey	3	60.8kg	34 33/1
4th	8	3	Chesneys Charm (G) Course winner back in 2024 but yet to win this year and has been tried over longer trips of late. Others are more convincing.	373454	Jason Hart I Furtado	4	60.3kg	5 4/1
1st	9	6	Poppeye (G) Lightly-raced maiden who posted another fair effort when creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Redcar (1¼m, good, 10/3) 59 days ago. Drop back in trip may well suit.	47425	Oliver Stammers Grant Tuer	4	60.3kg	6 5/1
2nd	10	11	Bajan Bandit (G) V Capitalised on falling mark when scoring here last month and backed that up with solid third of 11 in handicap over C&D 25 days ago, running on. Merits consideration.	320132	Alexandra Egan P Morris	6	59.4kg	7.50 13/2
3rd	11	4	Shes Got The Blues (F) Made it 4 wins from 14 starts this year when landing 10-runner handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 10/1) 22 days ago. Just 2 lb higher now and is not taken lightly.	331313	Marco Ghiani A W Carroll	3	59.4kg	13 12/1
10th	12	12	Sogniamo (F) BT Has struggled since winning a Hamilton novice (80/1) on stable debut/ reappearance in May, going with little encouragement when sixth of 11 in handicap over longer trip at this course 19 days ago. Bl…	756886	Mark Winn D O'Meara	3	57.6kg	34 33/1
