Runners Spotlight

Monsun Climate
Favorite

Not devoid of promise based on his last two starts, both at around 2m; has had wind surgery since being 25l third at Taunton in January; probably best watched on handicap debut.

Regal Cavalier

15.5f winner (soft) on the Flat when trained in France; showed some ability on his second start when with Max Young (2m, good to soft) but well below that level since; handy mark if new trainer can revive him.

Jockey: Lee EdwardsTrainer: Belinda Clarke
4
Celtic Queen

Best finish came when a close second in a good-ground Hereford bumper on debut; peak effort came in a subsequent Wetherby maiden bumper (soft); respectable effort when 11l third on handicap debut at Hereford (2m, good) latest; drops 3lb; each-way player.

Jockey: Lorcan MurtaghTrainer: Tim Vaughan
5
The Padster

Unplaced in five starts; best effort came over C&D (good) last November; well below that level on his handicap debut latest; has since had wind surgery and drops 4lb; may be able to get competitive.
