Close up in both 1m4f Tapeta handicaps this year, keeping on well on this track and just behind a subsequent winner in a slowly run Wolverhampton race; fair effort at Kempton (1m4f) since and this shorter trip may suit.

Another who is enjoying a fine winter, winning for the fifth time when seeing off ten rivals at Southwell last month; steadily-run race no good to him at Newcastle on Saturday and he's capable of bouncing back quickly.

Progressive gelding who has won four of his last eight starts and was a close second at Wolverhampton (9.4f, Tapeta) two weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher than for that last run and he's a big player again on this drop back in trip.

J: Rowan Scott

Justified favouritism at Southwell most recently, making it three wins from his last four starts and taking strike-rate since November to 5-11; has a particularly good record at Wolverhampton in that period; progressing well with age and warrants respect off bottom weight upped further in class.

Has flourished for new yard back on the AW, winning all four starts and proving suited by the step up in trip when coming clear over C&D last week; up 3lb but good chance of extending the purple patch.

Dual C&D winner; drops into a 0-55 for the first time since completing the last leg of a four-timer at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) in February, since when he has won over hurdles; may have done too much early when fifth of 12 back here 18 days ago; very much of interest at this level; stable also runs Boujee Gold.

Form & Verdict
Ex-Irish; tiny glimmer of ability on AW but nothing of note on turf, over hurdles or on a point start; has modest claims off his opening mark on those efforts but his dam bred some useful types and he goes handicapping for a yard that's a rising force; watch the market like a hawk.

Won two bumpers in 2023; has had few suitable chances on the Flat, seemingly finding his level when not beaten far in his second handicap, over 1m4f on this track, before failing to see out 1m6f at Wolverhampton since; should still have potential under Rossa Ryan.

Just missed out in a C&D handicap one year ago when rated 7lb higher; the reason for his drop in the weights is that he's been tailed off in all four starts since.
