J: Billy Garritty

In good form since returning from seven months off in January including a win over C&D last month and close third at Southwell (1m6f) 13 days ago; ties in with Analogical on that latest form and he's respected back in trip.

Ran away with a Class 6 handicap at Southwell last October (1m6f) off a 10lb lower mark; two runner-up finishes at Southwell last month (after a 166-day absence) and he seemed fully effective on turf last year; one to take seriously.

J: Kieran O’Neill

T: S Woods

Showed the benefit of a gelding operation when winning a C&D handicap by 9l in October but he was raised 8lb and was well held on his next start; needs to bounce back following a 166-day break.

Very pleasing second, behind one who readily followed up next time, over the extended 2m at Newcastle in January; passed up a good opportunity next time and looked awkward under pressure latest (both 1m6f here); others preferred.

0-9 but runner-up on two occasions this year, including here over 1m6f in January; beat only one of his four rivals home over this C&D eight days ago but left the impression a stiffer test of stamina would have suited; cheekpieces added.

J: Cam Hardie

T: Philip Kirby

Low-mileage 5yo who is going the right way for his current yard, runner-up in handicaps at Newcastle (2m) and over C&D in January; the form of both those races has been well advertised since so he holds excellent claims in his bid for a breakthrough success.

Won juvenile hurdle at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) in November and returned to form to win handicap against older horses at Huntingdon (2m, soft) a fortnight ago; did it easily last time and a 9lb rise may not stop him.
