Trade Centre Wales Handicap Stakes

Stenmark returns quickly, just seven days after a clear second last time out, and he has already tackled today's trip; rated well clear of this field on our figures, he is the one to beat, with a first win in this sequence the only thing missing.

Echalar's latest effort, a third, was easily his best in a modest sequence, and a strong speed figure of 80 hints at more ability than his recent form shows; still without a win in his last six starts, proving that in this company is the task 19 days on.

Penelope Valentine boasts a win in her recent form as well as a second and a third, proof she has the class to figure in this company; her latest start, a modest sixth after 28 days, is the one query.

Kodi Fire's official mark of 68 undersells him on our figures, hinting at untapped ability, though a modest sequence of finishes - nothing better than fourth in his last five starts - leaves that to prove; 25 days have elapsed since he last ran.

Dappled Light boasts two wins and a second in his last three starts, form that reads well, yet a modest speed figure of 55 leaves him bottom of this field on our figures; that gap between the form book and the clock is the concern here.
