J: Zak Wheatley

Four wins last year, starting with this race (good to firm), and he's been running well in the main on Southwell AW this spring; solid claims.

6 yo Colt

OR: 70

Form & Verdict
Front-runner who won at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta) in December; seventh there on next two starts (5f) but beaten only about 2l last time and he might not be far away in reapplied cheekpieces, in which he's won on turf.

Hover On The Wind

9st 9lb

J: Barry McHugh

T: Paul Midgley

Boasts a decent record around this time of year; below par on turf last time but he's bounced back from blips before and he's in off the same mark as when going close over C&D in March; one to consider.

J: Barry McHugh

T: Paul Midgley

Close third, despite traffic issues, in AW contest when last seen two months ago; defied a 2lb higher mark over C&D (good to firm) last May and warrants respect back here.

Form & Verdict
Won at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) last month and has had excuses there on both starts since (wide draw then slow start); however, the drop back to 5f isn't an obvious positive.

Woodhay Whisper

9st 9lb

J: David Probert

T: Jack Jones

Closely matched with Irish Dancer and Street Life on C&D form from two weeks ago when she was short of room late on; all her wins have come at 6f but she's effective at 5f and she should be in the shake-up again.

OR: 57

Form & Verdict
Five-time course winner, the latest in January when just 1lb lower; this 9yo hasn't been at the top of his game over C&D and at Lingfield on his last two starts but he can't be discounted.

Street Life

J: Ryan Kavanagh

Won twice on AW this winter, including C&D, and he is now 2lb lower than for the second win; has gone quiet more recently though and could prove vulnerable for win purposes once again.

J: Myla Coppins

Veteran who was recording the 14th win of his career when scoring off this mark over C&D in January; short of his best on his last four starts but the ability is there if his new rider can coax it out of him.

Form & Verdict

9st 3lb

J: Rossa Ryan

T: David Evans

His last two wins have come when making all in Class 6 handicaps at Kempton over 6f; yet to win on turf but he has gone well on fast ground in the past; Rossa Ryan booked and he should give it a good go from the front.

Made all when winning at Kempton early last month (said to have appreciated being able to dominate); unable to get to the front down to 5f here next time and is another 3lb higher tonight; a lot will hinge on how things play out early.
