1	10 1st (10) (9/2 +40%) Photosynthesis		4.5 9/2(+40%)																															(10) Photosynthesis 9/2, Resumed progress and showed good turn of foot to win C&D handicap in January. Met trouble when 3 lengths sixth at Kempton 12 days ago, finishing with running left. Worth another chance. C&D winner in January and safe to ignore latest run (met trouble); still has some upside.
2	5 2nd (5) (15/2 -7%) Blue Prince		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(5) Blue Prince 15/2, Progressed well since joining this yard, landing 6f handicaps at Southwell and Newcastle this winter. Shaped well when a close third to Brave Empire in a tactical race over C&D 26 days ago. Should get a stronger gallop to aim at this time. Behind Brave Empire here last time but could well reverse those placings; strong contender.
3	6 3rd (6) (28/1 +15%) G'day Mate		28 28/1(+15%)																															(6) G'day Mate 28/1, Length fourth of 5 to Brave Empire in C&D handicap 26 days ago. Must improve. He has finished behind Blue Prince in both runs for this yard; others appeal more.
4	11 4th (11) (16/1 +11%) Mc Loven		16 16/1(+11%)																															(11) Mc Loven 16/1, Lightly-raced course winner. Likely unsuited by testing ground when well held in York nursery on final 2-y-o start. Could have more to offer back on an artificial surface. 2-2 on AW (5f, one here) but he'll need a clear personal best to win this on his return.
5th	4 5th (4) (5/1 +44%) Billy Webster		5 5/1(+44%)																															(4) Billy Webster 5/1, Made it 3 wins from 4 starts with a useful effort to see off 4 rivals in a 5f Southwell handicap 6 weeks ago. Most progressive but the outside stall could be tricky here. Big improver since headgear went on; mark still in range but has a wide stall to overcome.
6th	2 6th (2) (6/1 +0%) Brave Empire		6 6/1(+0%)																															(2) Brave Empire 6/1, Made it 3 wins from 5 starts when holding on by a head in a blanket finish over C&D (Blue Prince third) over C&D 26 days ago. Only nudged up 1 lb but he was suited by the way things unfolded last time. Scrambled home over C&D latest; can do better but further progress is required; drawn wide.
7th	3 7th (3) (17/2 -13%) Salvuccio		8.5 17/2(-13%)																															(3) Salvuccio 17/2, Improved since cheekpieces added, winning twice over 5f on AW last autumn. Better effort in 6f Meydan conditions races on turf this year when fourth of 10 3 weeks ago. Interesting back on AW. 2-2 on AW; ran creditably in Dubai three weeks ago; could have more to come.
8th	9 8th (9) (80/1 -142%) World Of Darcy		80 80/1(-142%)																															(9) World Of Darcy 80/1, Latest win at Nottingham in October. 8/1, 3 lengths last of 5 to Brave Empire in C&D handicap 26 days ago. Others are more obvious. Two novice wins last year; behind three of these rivals over C&D on his return to action.
9th	7 9th (7) (12/1 -33%) Beyond Borders		12 12/1(-33%)																															(7) Beyond Borders 12/1, Four wins from 7 runs last year, including 6f handicaps on both AW starts. 5 lb higher in a stronger race on return so he'll need improvement to keep the unbeaten AW record intact. Ended 2yo campaign with three 6f nursery wins; up in weights for his return.
10th	8 10th (8) (9/1 -38%) The Coffee Pod		9 9/1(-38%)																															(8) The Coffee Pod 9/1, Promising individual. Winner of novice at York (6f) in September (form boosted). Had excuses when well held in valuable sales race over 7f there on heavy ground final start. Remains capable of better on this handicap and AW debut. Had an excuse when last seen (trip/ground) and he'd been progressing well beforehand.
11th	12 11th (12) (50/1 -257%) Balon D'or		50 50/1(-257%)																															(12) Balon D'or 50/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Cheekpieces on first time, creditable third of 6 in handicap (5/2) at Newcastle (5f) 22 days ago. Tongue strap on first time. Yet to add to debut win; running okay on AW this winter but needs more for the tongue-tie.
12th	1 12th (1) (9/2 -13%) Rosario		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(1) Rosario 9/2, Won on debut last summer and much better form when placed in the Group 2 Flying Childers at Doncaster and the Group 3 Cornwallis at Newmarket (both 5f, good to soft) in the autumn. Smart effort will be needed under clear top weight but still can't discount. Followed debut win with fine efforts in Group races; more to come but looked tricky latest.

Placed in both the Flying Childers and Cornwallis Stakes as a juvenile, ROSARIO is a highly appealing option starting his three-year-old campaign on the all-weather. Stepping up to 6f looks a natural progression and he is fancied to take all the beating on his first run in a handicap. Brave Empire won over C&D last month and is also expected to be thereabouts. The progressive Beyond Borders, who seeks a four-timer, warrants close inspection now upped in class.

A useful 3-y-o handicap. PHOTOSYNTHESIS didn't enjoy the rub of the green at Kempton recently and is worth a chance to show he's still on a good mark. The form of The Coffee Pod's York novice win last autumn is strong and he was presumably unsuited by testing ground when well held there on his final start. Richard Hannon's charge is handily drawn for this handicap debut and can resume his progression and provide the chief threat ahead of Salvuccio and Blue Prince.

With Billy Webster having landed the widest stall this looks good for BLUE PRINCE (nap) to show he's still on the upgrade.

1	1 (1) (13/8 +28%) Issar D'airy		1.625 13/8(+28%)																															(1) Issar D'airy 13/8, Progressive 6-y-o who has made a fine start over fences, landing back-to-back handicaps at around 2m here in recent months, coming clear with another progressive sort latest. 6 lb rise looks perfectly fair and sound claims in hat-trick bid with return to further holding no fears. 2-2 since switched to fences, both wins over 2m here; won at 2m4f over hurdles; respected.
1	5 1st (5) (5/2 +62%) Martator		2.5 5/2(+62%)																															(5) Martator 5/2, Useful winning hurdler in France. Not at that level for present stable but proving consistent over fences this campaign, second behind Issar D'airy here prior to another creditable third at Carlisle (2m) 25 days ago. Handy pull at weights with aforementioned rival now stepping back up in trip. Form figures over fences read 333223; ties in with Issar d'Airy on penultimate effort.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/1 +11%) Ballycamus		4 4/1(+11%)																															(3) Ballycamus 4/1, Made a successful debut over fences at Chepstow in December and resumed his progress with success in 6-runner handicap at Warwick (20f, heavy) 39 days ago. This rates tougher but further improvement not discounted. Warwick success (in lower grade) took his chase record to 2-3; may improve further.
3	4 3rd (4) (4/1 +11%) Ioupy Collonges		4 4/1(+11%)																															(4) Ioupy Collonges 4/1, Bumper winner who was steadily progressive over hurdles last season, winning 2 of his 4 starts. Faltered quickly on return/chase debut at Chepstow in October (had irregular heartbeat) but given plenty of time since and he shouldn't be underestimated for leading stable. Found to have an irregular heartbeat on sole run this term; progressive otherwise.
4	2 4th (2) (6/4 +45%) Passing Well		1.5 6/4(+45%)																															(2) Passing Well 6/4, Dual hurdles winner who confirmed promise of chase debut when landing 5-runner Lingfield handicap (20f) in November. Improved when third over extended 22f here next time but disappointing run faced with deep ground at Exeter to shrug off. Close third, behind a subsequent Grade 2 winner, here on penultimate outing; possibilities.

It is difficult to look past ISSAR D'AIRY following a pair of victories here on his first two starts over fences. Soft ground should be in his favour once again, and a mark of 126 could still underestimate the six-year-old's ability as he steps up in trip against comfortable Warwick scorer Ballycamus, who has a similar profile. Martator (second) has over four lengths to find with the selection from their meeting in December, but cannot be ruled out.

ISSAR D'AIRY maintained his unbeaten record over fences when landing a second course handicap in determined fashion 38 days ago and, with further progress distinctly possible now stepping back up in trip, he can complete the hat-trick. Martator is capable of defying his present mark and should be up to pushing his old rival close with a handy pull at the weights.

Topweight ISSAR D'AIRY (nap) is taken to complete a Newbury hat-trick. Passing Well is feared most.

1	8 1st (8) (12/1 -33%) Chipstead		12 12/1(-33%)																															(8) Chipstead 12/1, Latest win at Kempton (6f) in December and respectable efforts both outings since, third of 6 in handicap at that venue (6f) 16 days ago, weakening last ½f having not settled early. Likelihood of a good pace to aim at here will help. Won off this mark in December but his two runs since haven't been quite so good.
2	9 2nd (9) (18/1 +0%) Summerghand		18 18/1(+0%)																															(9) Summerghand 18/1, C&D listed winner who added to his impressive career haul when dead-heating in valuable 6f handicap at York's Ebor meeting last year. Mixed bag upon returning on AW in recent months, no threat in C&D Kachy Stakes last month. This more suitable at least. Fine servant who won't mind conditions & this should be run to suit; each-way shout.
3	11 3rd (11) (7/4 +73%) Batal Dubai		1.75 7/4(+73%)																															(11) Batal Dubai 7/4, Enhanced good record on AW when successful at Chelmsford (6f) in October and remained in form since, good second of 6 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 16 days ago. Should be thereabouts again from handy draw. 3-8 on AW; ran into a useful opponent last time; still improving and he's high on the list.
4	6 4th (6) (17/2 -6%) Kinta		8.5 17/2(-6%)																															(6) Kinta 17/2, Improved performer during light 2023 campaign, successful at Newmarket (6f) prior to a good second in C&D listed event in November. May of needed first start for 12 weeks at Wolverhampton 20 days ago and better expected in refitted hood/first-time tongue tie. The return of a hood should help and conditions hold no terrors; one to take seriously.
5th	2 5th (2) (14/1 -155%) Rohaan		14 14/1(-155%)																															(2) Rohaan 14/1, C&D winner. 13¾ lengths fourteenth of 15 to Art Power in Champions Sprint Stakes at Ascot (6f, soft) in October, held up and never threatening. Absent since but he does boast a good record on artificial surfaces and market could well prove a useful guide as to expectations. High-class on his day; chance on even last year's best but others preferred after a break.
6th	12 6th (12) (8/1 +27%) Baldomero		8 8/1(+27%)																															(12) Baldomero 8/1, Comes here on a lengthy losing run but hard to knock his consistency, splitting a pair of next-time-out winner when runner-up over 7f here 3 weeks ago. Visor worn then is replaced by blinkers and this 6-y-o should be firmly in the mix back at 6f. Frustrating but he continues to run with great credit; new headgear today; in the mix.
7th	5 7th (5) (80/1 -60%) The X O		80 80/1(-60%)																															(5) The X O 80/1, Dual AW winner who posted a useful effort when second in 6f Ascot Group 3 last May. Lightly raced since, weakening final 1f when fourth of 6 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 40/1) 16 days ago. Assessor has relinquished his grip a little more. Group 3 placed last May but opposable on the balance of his form.
8th	3 8th (3) (33/1 -200%) Mums Tipple		33 33/1(-200%)																															(3) Mums Tipple 33/1, Stepped up on comeback run this time last winter when winning class 2 handicap at Chelmsford (7f) 12 months ago. Cracking fourth in Wokingham followed in June but form tailed-off in trio of starts on turf/AW thereafter. Needs to hit the ground running back from a break. Two AW wins last winter but absent since a below-par run at Wolverhampton in September.
9th	7 9th (7) (15/2 -25%) Silky Wilkie		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(7) Silky Wilkie 15/2, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 7/2, respectable 2½ lengths fourth of 8 to One Night Stand in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 20 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form and handy draw to operate from returned to 6f. On a good mark; yet to find his best this winter but the type to come good soon.
10th	1 10th (1) (7/1 -75%) Flaming Rib		7 7/1(-75%)																															(1) Flaming Rib 7/1, Smart colt who kickstarted 2023 with victory in 6f Doha conditions event. Below par thereafter though, 5¼ lengths seventh of 9 to Lezoo in listed race (12/1) at Newmarket (6f, good) in August. Gelded since and interestingly re-united with Oisin Murphy ahead of return/AW debut. Smart sprinter on his day; this is less demanding than he's used to; yard in form; claims.
11th	4 11th (4) (12/1 +0%) Badri		12 12/1(+0%)																															(4) Badri 12/1, C&D winner who scored 4 times for Ruth Carr last year and continued good work for new yard, career-best display when winning 13-runner handicap at Ascot (5f) in October. Absent since but worth noting he's gone well fresh in the past. Respected. Had fine year as a 6yo; tough return but he goes well fresh and could continue to progress.
12th	10 12th (10) (11/1 +8%) One Night Stand		11 11/1(+8%)																															(10) One Night Stand 11/1, Speedy sort who added to his tally over 5f here in January and came in for a well-judged ride as he repeated the feat at Wolverhampton (5.1f) last month. Seemed to find listed Hever Stakes too much 6 days ago and whilst this more suitable, a well-run race at this trip could stretch him. Three 5f handicap wins this winter, two of them here; others stronger over this trip.

BATAL DUBAI had Chipstead and The X O behind when failing to justify favouritism by less than a length at Kempton, and he has been kindly left on the same mark. Harry Charlton's colt is progressing nicely and can continue that forward momentum. Mums Tipple is a capable performer on his day and even though much more was expected of him when last seen at Wolverhampton in September, he returns off a 1lb lower mark and could have a say. Last-time-out Ascot winner Badri is just one other to note.

Plenty arrive with claims and it could pay to side with BALDOMERO. He arrives on a long losing run but turned in another solid display when beaten on the nod over 7f here 3 weeks ago (form has been franked) and with the return to sprinting holding no fears, all looks set fair for another big run in first-time blinkers. Silky Wilkie, from a handy draw and back at 6f, can be expected to feature, with Batal Dubai and Flaming Rib (gelded since his last run) just a couple of others to consider.

Kinta can go well with the hood back on but BATAL DUBAI is still improving and that doesn't apply to the majority of his rivals.

1	2 1st (2) (10/11 +55%) Toss Of A Coin		0.909091 10/11(+55%)																															(2) Toss Of A Coin 10/11, €150,000 recruit from the pointing field who landed the odds on his 21.5f Exeter hurdle debut (heavy) in December. Can be expected to improve and leading claims for top yard with good recent record in this. Not particularly impressive when winning on rules debut but should have more to offer.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/4 -56%) Ballybentragh		1.25 5/4(-56%)																															(1) Ballybentragh 5/4, Irish point winner who made a successful start over hurdles in 8-runner novice (6/1) at Sandown (2m, heavy) 5 weeks ago, overcoming a bad error 2 out. This longer trip looks sure to play to his strengths. Too good for short-odds favourite on rules debut in January; up from 2m today; big player.
3	3 3rd (3) (17/2 +39%) Amarillobymorning		8.5 17/2(+39%)																															(3) Amarillobymorning 17/2, £58,000 buy after finishing second in his sole point in April 2022. It's taken a bit of time to get him to the track but his in-form stable won this race last year. Tongue tied. Market support could prove significant. Second of three on Irish point debut in April 2022; makes rules debut today.
4	5 4th (5) (33/1 +50%) Just Chasing May		33 33/1(+50%)																															(5) Just Chasing May 33/1, Mid-division in a bumper and novice hurdle 12 months apart. Amarillobymorning has to be considered the stable first string unless the betting hints otherwise. Made low-key start to hurdling career when tailed off at Hereford (2m5f) in January.
5th	7 5th (7) (50/1 -52%) An Cailin Ciuin		50 50/1(-52%)																															(7) An Cailin Ciuin 50/1, Had 2 outings at Punchestown for Mags Mullins at the end of 2023, finishing last of 6 in a listed mares' hurdle before finishing mid-field in a bumper. A watching brief is advised. Placed in Irish points and has also shown ability in bumpers; others look stronger, though.

BALLYBENTRAGH won well over 2m on his Rules debut at Sandown in January and the seven-year-old is hard to oppose on the back of that performance, despite having to carry a 6lb penalty. That said, Toss Of A Coin has a similar profile to the selection and is an obvious threat, while Amarillobymorning and Huffin An A Puffin are others who make the shortlist.

TOSS OF A COIN is taken to build on his Exeter success before Christmas and provide the Paul Nicholls yard with a third win in this race in the last 4 years. Fellow hurdle winner Ballybentragh is the obvious danger unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding one of the hurdle newcomers.

Ballybentragh is respected but preference is for TOSS OF A COIN, who was not fully extended when successful on his rules debut

1	8 1st (8) (7/4 +65%) Spartan Army		1.75 7/4(+65%)																															(8) Spartan Army 7/4, C&D winner. 9/1, career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Southwell (16.5f) 6 days ago, plenty in hand. Now pitched into a stronger race under a penalty but he should make a bold bid to complete the hat-trick. C&D scorer on AW debut, then followed up at Southwell last week; likely to improve further.
2	3 2nd (3) (10/1 -25%) Prydwen		10 10/1(-25%)																															(3) Prydwen 10/1, Course winner. Six wins from 23 Flat runs. Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. 4/1, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 27 days ago. Place possibilities. Made late headway at Kempton on reappearance; still not fully exposed over staying trips.
3	9 3rd (9) (5/1 -25%) Vaguely Royal		5 5/1(-25%)																															(9) Vaguely Royal 5/1, Three wins from 7 runs last year. Fifth of 6 in handicap (9/4) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 13 days ago. Up in trip for this polytrack debut and cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs to get back on track. Disappointing last time but may rebound provided he takes well to first-time headgear.
4	11 4th (11) (9/1 -13%) Red Flyer		9 9/1(-13%)																															(11) Red Flyer 9/1, Course winner. Latest win at Kempton in January. Good neck second of 9 to Spartan Army in handicap at this C&D (AW, 10/3) 26 days ago, well positioned. Likely to be on the premises once more. Consistent on AW; ties in closely with Spartan Army on C&D running last time; shortlisted.
5th	6 5th (6) (6/1 +33%) Duty Of Care		6 6/1(+33%)																															(6) Duty Of Care 6/1, 17/2, good second of 11 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 27 days ago, running on. Had several of these behind that day and he has to enter calculations off the same mark here. Largely solid record over 2m on AW (all at Kempton); creditable second last time.
6th	13 6th (13) (12/1 +14%) First Emperor		12 12/1(+14%)																															(13) First Emperor 12/1, 20/1, creditable 2½ lengths third of 13 to Spartan Army in handicap at Southwell (16.5f) 6 days ago, needing stiffer test. Looks vulnerable from a win point of view. Ran creditably in races won by Spartan Army the last twice; could go well again.
7th	14 7th (14) (18/1 -13%) God Of Thunder		18 18/1(-13%)																															(14) God Of Thunder 18/1, Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap (4/1) at Kempton (12f) 30 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Significantly up in trip and will need to raise his game if he's to emerge on top here. Consistent sort at up to 1m5f; goes into unknown territory upped in distance/grade.
8th	1 8th (1) (18/1 -200%) Spirit Mixer		18 18/1(-200%)																															(1) Spirit Mixer 18/1, 11/2, bit below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Musselburgh (14f, good to soft). Wellbeing has to be taken on trust following a 10-month absence but he has performed well all 4 previous starts on the AW and is one to keep an eye on. Absent since last April; went close in the 2022 Northumberland Plate on last AW attempt.
9th	5 9th (5) (150/1 -582%) Frozen		150 150/1(-582%)																															(5) Frozen 150/1, Won 5-runner minor event at Lyon La Soie (10.7f, evens) when last seen in November. Significantly up in trip on debut for new yard (sports a first-time tongue strap) and it's probably best to look elsewhere. Formerly trained on the continent; has stamina to prove at this trip on British debut.
10th	10 10th (10) (28/1 -75%) Diamond Bay		28 28/1(-75%)																															(10) Diamond Bay 28/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in September. 12/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 27 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Five wins on AW; not in top form since the last success and can be opposed.
11th	12 11th (12) (125/1 -468%) Crescent Lake		125 125/1(-468%)																															(12) Crescent Lake 125/1, Three wins from 9 runs last year. Last of 10 in handicap (17/2) at Sandown (14f, good). Off 6 months and this assignment demands a career-best from this 7-y-o. Enough to prove at this level on first Flat attempt over 2m; on career-high mark.
12th	2 12th (2) (25/1 -25%) Fleurman		25 25/1(-25%)																															(2) Fleurman 25/1, Two wins from 5 runs last year. 16/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 27 days ago. Eased 2 lb, which will help, but others make more appeal for win purposes all the same. Only fourth at Kempton last month and appears held by Duty Of Care on that effort.
13th	4 13th (4) (16/1 -33%) Solent Gateway		16 16/1(-33%)																															(4) Solent Gateway 16/1, Creditable third of 14 in handicap at York (16.2f, good to firm, 14/1), having run of race. Off 6 months and likely to find a few of these too good. Useful stayer whose AW record includes a good third in the 2022 Northumberland Plate.

SPARTAN ARMY comfortably took care of a hot favourite and First Emperor (third) at Southwell last weekend. The son of Highland Reel also had First Emperor behind him prior to that when just denying Red Flyer here, and he looks well placed to record the hat-trick. Vaguely Royal is taking a step up in distance, but has first-time cheekpieces applied and it would be no surprise to see him get involved.

A chance is taken on the fitness of SPIRIT MIXER, who was a terrific second in the 2022 Northumberland Plate off just a 1 lb lower mark on his latest start on the all-weather. He was below par in a valuable Musselburgh handicap on his sole start of last year but resumes with his yard among the winners. The hat-trick seeking Spartan Army is greatly respected, while Duty of Care and Red Flyer are others to consider.

It's worth sticking with SPARTAN ARMY, who has taken really well to AW. Red Flyer is second choice.

1	5 1st (5) (11/10 +56%) I'd Like To Know		1.1 11/10(+56%)																															(5) I'd Like To Know 11/10, Promising individual who upped his game when close second of 6 in C&D handicap (soft) on debut over fences 38 days ago. 4 lb higher now but looks the type to progress further over the larger obstacles. Made a promising chase debut in C&D event most recently, going down narrowly; solid chance.
2	2 2nd (2) (8/1 +27%) Real Stone		8 8/1(+27%)																															(2) Real Stone 8/1, Jumped superbly when taking apart a small field at Haydock (16.3f) in November. Not been in same form since but handicaper is relenting and he has had a wind operation since his last start. More exposed than some of these rivals and doesn't look especially well treated.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/4 -63%) Demnat		2.25 9/4(-63%)																															(1) Demnat 9/4, Back from 32-month absence when easy winner of Ludlow handicap chase (20f, soft) last month. 10 lb higher now but he remains with potential and will be a danger to all if in same form again. Ex-French 7yo who scored easily at Ludlow on British debut and return from long absence.
4	4 4th (4) (28/1 -100%) Fast Buck		28 28/1(-100%)																															(4) Fast Buck 28/1, Belatedly doubled his tally over fences when landing a small-field Wincanton handicap (15.7f) in January but wasn't in same form at Sandown latest and lacks potential of some of his rivals here. Won at Wincanton in January but inconsistent otherwise this term; exposed 10yo.
5th	3 5th (3) (9/2 -35%) Kansas City Star		4.5 9/2(-35%)																															(3) Kansas City Star 9/2, Off the mark at the first time of asking for Harry Derham when taking 6-runner handicap chase at Huntingdon (16.5f, soft) on debut over fences 36 days ago. 4 lb rise fair and likely has more to offer yet. Ex-Irish 7yo who made all at Huntingdon on chase/stable debut; should have more to offer.

Cases can be made for all of these, but none more so than DEMNAT. Venetia Williams' gelding could hardly have been more impressive when winning by 15 lengths on his stable debut at Ludlow last month and, given that was his first start since June 2021, improvement can be expected. Kansas City Star also won on his debut outing for this yard and has to be of interest, while I'd Like To Know is next best.

I'D LIKE TO KNOW has the physique for chasing and pulled clear of the remainder when runner-up on his debut in this sphere over C&D in January, He is fancied to go one better. Kansas City Star and Demnat are also much respected in what looks a cracking contest.

Demnat may prove hard to beat if avoiding the bounce. I'D LIKE TO KNOW and Kansas City Star are the other unexposed runners.

4	4 (4) (10/1 -54%) Felix		10 10/1(-54%)																															(4) Felix 10/1, 4/1 and blinkered for 1st time, creditable second of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 27 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Should make his presence felt. Solid efforts in defeat this winter & many of his best runs have come over C&D; e-w claims.
1	7 1st (7) (9/4 +50%) Penzance		2.25 9/4(+50%)																															(7) Penzance 9/4, 6/1, career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 60 days ago, rallying. 4 lb nudge fair enough and he has to be taken seriously in his bid for a fourth win in a row. Won his last 3 and a 4lb rise for his latest win, which has worked out well, seems lenient.
2	11 2nd (11) (14/1 -27%) Old Peculier		14 14/1(-27%)																															(11) Old Peculier 14/1, 10/11, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Dundalk (8f) 45 days ago, soon clear. Evidently at the top of his game and stepping back up in trip won't be a problem but this mark could be a stumbling block. 3-3 since fitted with blinkers; whopping 13lb rise for latest; hangs right; up in class.
3	9 3rd (9) (33/1 -32%) Youthful King		33 33/1(-32%)																															(9) Youthful King 33/1, Course winner. 12/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 34 days ago. Others make more appeal form a win point of view. Front-runner; chance on last year's best efforts but likely vulnerable from the worst draw.
4	10 4th (10) (17/2 +6%) Wadacre Gomez		8.5 17/2(+6%)																															(10) Wadacre Gomez 17/2, Five wins from 16 Flat runs. Three wins from 12 runs last year. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap (10/3) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 14 days ago. High on the shortlist. Improving handicapper but he's into stronger company now and there are other front-runners.
5th	2 5th (2) (12/1 -85%) Diderot		12 12/1(-85%)																															(2) Diderot 12/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in December. 7/1, 2¼ lengths third of 5 to Dear My Friend in listed race at this course (8f, AW) 26 days ago, nearest finish. Back up in trip and not without each-way hope. Has big-field C&D handicap form and he comes here in good form; one for the shortlist.
6th	8 6th (8) (14/1 +13%) Civil Law		14 14/1(+13%)																															(8) Civil Law 14/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. 11/4, good 2½ lengths third of 10 to Wadacre Gomez in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 14 days ago. Each-way shout. Comes here in top form but his current handicap mark looks tough.
7th	1 7th (1) (8/1 -33%) Base Note		8 8/1(-33%)																															(1) Base Note 8/1, C&D winner. Five wins from 19 Flat runs. Latest win at Chelmsford City in November. Fifth of 6 in minor event at Southwell (11.1f, 5/1) 36 days ago. Looks vulnerable under top-weight. Good record in AW handicaps; not straightforward but still commands plenty of respect.
8th	13 8th (13) (66/1 -313%) Qaasid		66 66/1(-313%)																															(13) Qaasid 66/1, Tenth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 8/1) 13 days ago. Back up in trip and he's opposable. Ran well over C&D on Good Friday and now 2lb lower; well held in both runs back from break.
9th	6 9th (6) (5/1 +44%) Dragon Icon		5 5/1(+44%)																															(6) Dragon Icon 5/1, Course winner. One win from 1 run last year. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 9/1) 23 days ago, left with too much to do. This step up in trip looks a good move and he's one to be interested in. Unexposed and did some good late work at Kempton last time; tricky draw to contend with.
10th	3 10th (3) (22/1 -57%) Zealot		22 22/1(-57%)																															(3) Zealot 22/1, Eight wins from 17 Flat runs. Four wins from 5 runs last year. Last of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 22/1) 13 days ago, slowly away. Needs a couple of these to falter. Seven wins last winter, climbing 40lb in the weights; low-key return two weeks ago though.
11th	12 11th (12) (25/1 +0%) Dayzee		25 25/1(+0%)																															(12) Dayzee 25/1, Three wins from 6 runs last year. Respectable third of 8 in handicap (33/1) at this C&D (AW) 41 days ago. No more than an each-way squeak. Two solid runs for new connections but she's in much deeper today.
12th	5 12th (5) (9/2 +40%) Talis Evolvere		4.5 9/2(+40%)																															(5) Talis Evolvere 9/2, Two wins from 6 runs last year. Latest win at Kempton in January. 10/3, good second of 12 in handicap at this course (8f, AW) 41 days ago, having run of race. Up in trip and another bold show anticipated. Improving handicapper; good 2nd over 1m here latest; up 3lb & stamina for 1m2f untested.

PENZANCE brought up the hat-trick on just his fourth start for this yard at Newcastle on New Year's Day and, upped a further 4lb, he can continue on his upward trajectory. Old Peculier may prove the main danger after completing a three-timer of his own at Dundalk, over a variety of distances, although a career-high mark does pose a question. Dayzee has acquitted herself well since joining Barry Brennan and she may outrun her forecast odds.

This step up in trip could be just the ticket for DRAGON ICON, who did mighty well to finish as close as he did over a mile at Kempton last month. With just five starts under his belt, there should be better to come from this 4-y-o. Penzance and Wadacre Gomez are likely to emerge as dangers, while cases can also be made for Felix and Talis Evolvere.

Base Note and Diderot can go well but conceding plenty of weight to the rapid improver PENZANCE may be beyond them.

1	10 1st (10) (66/1 +0%) Maestro Stick		66 66/1(+0%)																															(10) Maestro Stick 66/1, Modest gelding. Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 125/1, tenth of 12 in claimer at this course (8f) 14 days ago. Back down in trip. Low grade handicapper, mostly over further, and makes no appeal at the weights.
2	9 2nd (9) (14/1 +30%) Hezahunk		14 14/1(+30%)																															(9) Hezahunk 14/1, Modest maiden who ran below form when eighth of 10 in handicap at this course (5f) 14 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time. Busy since joining the yard late without getting close; will struggle to get involved.
3	7 3rd (7) (7/1 -56%) Tai Sing Yeh		7 7/1(-56%)																															(7) Tai Sing Yeh 7/1, Fairly useful gelding. 5-time C&D winner. 33/1, probably needed the run after 3 months off when eleventh of 12 in claimer at this course (8f) 14 days ago. Back down in trip. First run for yard after leaving James McAuley and much respected on pick of his form. Mostly out of form although well treated by the race conditions if close to his best.
4	3 4th (3) (11/4 +0%) Gobi Star		2.75 11/4(+0%)																															(3) Gobi Star 11/4, Fairly useful gelding. C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, 9/2) 49 days ago, running on. First run for yard after leaving Patrick Martin. Visor on for 1st time. Needs taking seriously. Fourth in a 7f handicap here last month and changed hands for 10,000Eur; should go well.
5th	11 5th (11) (20/1 +20%) Princess Rajj		20 20/1(+20%)																															(11) Princess Rajj 20/1, Fair mare. Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 22/1, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at this course (8f) 21 days ago. Back down in trip. Faded late in a 1m handicap three weeks ago; trip could suit but no chance at the weights.
6th	4 6th (4) (3/1 +81%) Redshore City		3 3/1(+81%)																															(4) Redshore City 3/1, Modest gelding. Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Nineteenth of 20 in handicap at Navan (5.8f, soft, 22/1), slowly away. Off 149 days. First run for yard after leaving John McConnell. Will need to surpass his mark to feature here; first run for this respected yard.
7th	2 7th (2) (9/1 -200%) Cross Border		9 9/1(-200%)																															(2) Cross Border 9/1, Unreliable individual who didn't need to improve to finally get off the mark in 8-runner maiden (11/4) at this course (5f) 30 days ago, always holding on. First run for yard after leaving Edward Lynam. Sold out of Eddie Lynam's for 9,000Eur after winning here; contender on stable debut.
8th	6 8th (6) (20/1 +39%) Empress Of Bough		20 20/1(+39%)																															(6) Empress Of Bough 20/1, Modest mare. C&D winner in October. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 14 days ago, not ideally placed. Got off the mark in a C&D handicap in October; little chance on official ratings however.
9th	1 9th (1) (7/2 -56%) Army Of India		3.5 7/2(-56%)																															(1) Army Of India 7/2, Fairly useful gelding. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Third of 10 in handicap at this course (5f, 11/1) 14 days ago, running on. Cheekpieces back on and in the mix with a repeat. Third in a 5f handicap two weeks ago; step back up to 6f should suit; leading chance here.
10th	5 10th (5) (22/1 +33%) Kuwait Direction		22 22/1(+33%)																															(5) Kuwait Direction 22/1, Is struggled for form at present, only eighth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 45 days ago. Uphill task. Over a year without a win and has a mountain to climb on ratings to break that sequence.
11th	8 11th (8) (80/1 -300%) Tack		80 80/1(-300%)																															(8) Tack 80/1, 40/1, ninth of 14 in claimer at Bellewstown (7.8f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Down in trip. First run for yard after leaving E. D. Delany. 13-race maiden, absent since July and having first start for the yard; others preferred.

CROSS BORDER was a touch frustrating before getting his head in front last time and with that win under his belt he may be able to strike again dropping into claiming company on his first outing for new trainer Daniel O'Sullivan. The Expert Eye gelding is a strong traveller and finally got the job done in good style last time after a series of placed efforts. Gobi Star is another making his first start for a new trainer, Sean Davis, and also looks a big player. He is top rated in the field, off a mark of 77, and ran well when a close fourth here last time over seven furlongs. Army Of India has been third on his two most recent visits and is another for the shortlist.

TAI SING YEH was well held on his most recent outing here 2 weeks ago, but he probably needed the run returning from a break and can land this if bouncing back to something like the pick of last year's form. Gobi Star is feared most ahead of Army of India.

By process of elimination, this could go to ARMY OF INDIA after a good run over 5f last time. The extra furlong should suit

1	6 1st (6) (13/2 +54%) Tanganyika		6.5 13/2(+54%)																															(6) Tanganyika 13/2, Improved for the step up to a staying trip when scoring at Bangor (23f) in December. Respectable efforts in defeat next 2 starts but was in the process of running when departing at Sandown last time. Backward steps on last two starts, whereas to win this probably requires a career best.
2	4 2nd (4) (20/1 -167%) Super Survivor		20 20/1(-167%)																															(4) Super Survivor 20/1, Dual novice hurdle winner in early 2022 who had a positive profile over fences prior to running poorly last 2 starts. Switch back to hurdling needs to have a positive effect. Returns to hurdling after flops in his last two chases, Welsh National on first occasion.
3	5 3rd (5) (4/1 +33%) High Game Royal		4 4/1(+33%)																															(5) High Game Royal 4/1, Built on maiden/novice promise when making a winning handicap debut over hurdles at Chepstow (19.5f) on final start of last season. Has shaped well all 3 outings over fences this term but does have stamina to prove now stepping up to 3m for the first time back over the smaller obstacles. Below form in his latest chase; bit to prove over new trip back hurdling.
4	1 4th (1) (11/2 -10%) Hermino Aa		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(1) Hermino Aa 11/2, Proved at least as good as ever when second of 14 in a handicap hurdle at Sandown (23.4f, good to soft) 27 days ago, sticking to task. Remains unexposed as a stayer and another good run seems likely. Second of 14 in Grade 3 handicap over 2m7f at Sandown last time; should have a big shout.
2	2 |U| (2) (16/5 +29%) Young Butler		3.2 16/5(+29%)																															(2) Young Butler 16/5, Has often looked ungenuine but improved on first outing since leaving Emma Lavelle when landing 11-runner handicap over C&D (good to soft) in November, keeping on well. The runner-up won a handicap off 5 lb higher recently, so his follow-up claims appear to be bright. Won last May and November, latterly over C&D for new yard; up another 6lb but progressing.
3	3 |PU| (3) (6/1 -20%) Man At Work		6 6/1(-20%)																															(3) Man At Work 6/1, Fell last sole start in Irish points but looked potentially useful in making a winning hurdling bow at Aintree (20f) in November 2022. Absent since disappointing up in grade at Sandown the following month, but the booking of Harry Cobden is an interesting one. Had breathing op/also tongue tied. Off 455 days; wind surgery and now tongue tied; 2m4f novice win in 2022 looked exciting.
7	7 |PU| (7) (7/2 -40%) G A Henty		3.5 7/2(-40%)																															(7) G A Henty 7/2, Lightly-raced 7-y-o who shaped well on first run since leaving Tom George when second in a 7-runner maiden at Market Rasen (20.6f, good to soft, 9/4) 52 days ago, clear of rest. Steps up to 3m on this switch to handicaps and likely to go on improving. Well related; no shock if this handicap debut over 3m prompts more improvement.

MAN AT WORK failed to fire on his most recent outing in a Grade 2 novice hurdle at Sandown in December 2022. That said, he merits the utmost respect having beaten Grey Dawning and Henry's Friend prior to that defeat at Aintree and an opening mark of 126 should be workable. If he were to need the run, G A Henty would likely be the main beneficiary, ahead of Young Butler and Hermino Aa.

YOUNG BUTLER put a string of indolent displays behind him when digging deep to get the better of a course specialist on his first start for his current yard over C&D in November and a 6 lb higher mark may not be enough to prevent the follow up. Hermino AA went down fighting at Sandown last month and remains unexposed as a stayer, while G A Henty and Man At Work are a couple of interesting handicap debutants.

Man At Work looked exciting initially in 2022. YOUNG BUTLER, G A Henty and Hermino AA appeal on this season's evidence.

4	4 (4) (10/1 -67%) King's Code		10 10/1(-67%)																															(4) King's Code 10/1, Gained a seventh win since last June when seeing off 10 rivals at Kempton (1m) 12 days ago, showing a typically good attitude. Likely to give his usual good account. Flourished for this yard, winning six times since August; needs to improve again here.
1	1 1st (1) (2/1 +27%) Dear My Friend		2 2/1(+27%)																															(1) Dear My Friend 2/1, 11/8, career best when winning 5-runner C&D listed race 26 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Nine Tenths, readily. An even better effort will be needed under a big weight back in a handicap but he's unlikely to give up his unbeaten AW record without a fight. 3-3 on AW, including a Listed C&D win last month; up in weights but a major player.
2	5 2nd (5) (4/1 +11%) Mclean House		4 4/1(+11%)																															(5) Mclean House 4/1, Had something in hand when winning course handicaps over 7f and this trip last month. Capable of better again and major player under a 5 lb penalty. Good strike-rate and has potential for more at 1m; not well in under penalty but feared.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/2 +29%) Kingdom Come		2.5 5/2(+29%)																															(3) Kingdom Come 5/2, Three wins from 6 runs last year. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f, 5/6) on reappearance 13 days ago. Considered. Good record on AW and likely to stay 1m around here; needs serious consideration.
4	8 4th (8) (13/2 +19%) Dingle		6.5 13/2(+19%)																															(8) Dingle 13/2, Course winner. Latest win at Newcastle in January. Creditable second of 12 in handicap (7/1) at Newcastle (1m) 13 days ago. Won't be too far away if in similar form. Comes here in good form and conditions won't be a hindrance; set for another bold bid.
5th	6 5th (6) (50/1 -25%) Tadreeb		50 50/1(-25%)																															(6) Tadreeb 50/1, Course winner. 9/1, bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (6f) when last seen 13 months ago. Returns in a hot race. Absent for 412 days and 1m hasn't looked his trip; easy enough to swerve.
6th	9 6th (9) (11/1 +21%) Trip To Rome		11 11/1(+21%)																															(9) Trip To Rome 11/1, Won a 7f Kempton novice last May (final start for Ed Dunlop) and made a positive start for his new yard when good third of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. Promising stable/handicap debut last month (7f); this trip should suit; brings low mileage.
7th	2 7th (2) (16/1 -45%) Bopedro		16 16/1(-45%)																															(2) Bopedro 16/1, Latest win at Newmarket in August. 4 lengths fourth of 5 to Dear My Friend in listed race over C&D 26 days ago. Visor back on. Strong handicap form last season; not at best here last month but should be sharper today.
7th	10 7th (10) (33/1 -175%) Larado		33 33/1(-175%)																															(10) Larado 33/1, C&D winner last month. 17/2, creditable 2¼ lengths fifth of 9 to Mclean House back here 11 days ago. Visor back on. C&D win last month but only fifth behind Mclean House in his follow-up bid.

KING'S CODE supplemented a Southwell success at Kempton recently and even with a 5lb penalty to shoulder, David Evans' progressive four-year-old gets the vote to bring up the hat-trick. Dear My Friend, another on a three-timer, will no doubt be popular given his impressive record of three wins from as many starts on artificial surfaces, and he can give the selection most to think about. McLean House, also penalised and arriving on the back of a couple of course triumphs, warrants respect too.

Another really competitive handicap to conclude. MCLEAN HOUSE can take the next step up the ladder and complete a course hat-trick but there are a host of possible dangers, headed by Dear My Friend, so impressive in a C&D listed race recently, Kingdom Come and King's Code.

Dear My Friend and KINGDOM COME appeal most and the step up in trip could spark another surge of progress from the selection.

1	5 1st (5) (11/2 -38%) Genesis		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(5) Genesis 11/2, Twice-raced gelding. 9/2, fifth of 8 in maiden at this C&D 14 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Has run to a similar level in maidens over 7f and 6f here; needs this for a mark.
2	12 2nd (12) (3/1 -173%) Mary Shoelaces		3 3/1(-173%)																															(12) Mary Shoelaces 3/1, Fair filly. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. 7/2, good second of 7 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, outbattled. Visor on for 1st time. Sets the standard. Touched off on the line in a 6f handicap two weeks ago; visor tried and the one to beat.

Down in trip and should be competitive once more. Style of racing suggests he could benefit from a drop in trip and respected here.
5th	4 5th (4) (20/1 -150%) Cool Dan		20 20/1(-150%)																															(4) Cool Dan 20/1, Fair gelding. Remains a maiden after 9 Flat runs. Good sixth of 14 in maiden at this C&D (12/1) 70 days ago. Looks vulnerable. Decent maiden run last time and could go well but might find a couple too good.
6th	11 6th (11) (40/1 -233%) Dc Diva		40 40/1(-233%)																															(11) Dc Diva 40/1, Washington DC filly. Half-sister to 7f/1m winner David's Diva. Dam 5f/5.3f winner (including at 2 yrs). Bred for speed and the trainer well capable of having one ready first time; interesting.
7th	1 7th (1) (200/1 -100%) Little Empire		200 200/1(-100%)																															(1) Little Empire 200/1, Twice-raced gelding who again showed little when tenth of 14 in maiden at this course (8f) 16 days ago.

8th	13 8th (13) (10/1 -67%) Mm Dragonfly		10 10/1(-67%)																															(13) Mm Dragonfly 10/1, Took a step forward from debut when fourth of 8 in maiden at this course (7f, 7/1) 16 days ago. Faded over 7f two weeks ago;every chance this trip will suit and could play a leading role.
9th	9 9th (9) (80/1 -142%) The Expert		80 80/1(-142%)																															(9) The Expert 80/1, 1,000 gns yearling, Expert Eye gelding. Half-brother to 6f winner Vince Lombardi. Dam, useful French 7.5f-1¼m winner, half-sister to high-class winner up to 8.3f Lightning Spear. Mix of speed and stamina in his pedigree; best watched on debut.
10th	7 10th (7) (7/4 +91%) Ministry Of Peace		1.75 7/4(+91%)																															(7) Ministry Of Peace 7/4, $60,000 yearling, resold $130,000 yearling, War Front colt. Dam US 1¼m-1½m winner, including minor stakes events, from family of Irish Derby winner and Derby runner-up St Jovite. Worth a market check. American pedigree and every chance that the surface will suit; best watched though.
11th	8 11th (8) (200/1 -203%) Old Chicago		200 200/1(-203%)																															(8) Old Chicago 200/1, Twice-raced colt. Last of 4 in minor event (150/1) at this C&D 21 days ago. Plum last in two sprint maidens and hard to give a chance to.
12th	3 12th (3) (250/1 -279%) Lough Alina		250 250/1(-279%)																															(3) Lough Alina 250/1, Well held in maidens. Significantly back down in trip. Has beaten one rival in four starts and makes no appeal.

Down in trip. No show after a very slow start over 1m here two weeks ago; best watched.

Not the strongest maiden and MARY SHOELACES, who has been placed in handicap company on her last two outings, looks up to winning a race of this standard. The U S Navy Flag filly lost out by just a head over course and distance a fortnight ago and Colin Keane takes the mount again. Hoover Dam is another obvious contender off his official mark of 74. He drops back in trip having been fourth over a mile here last time. Mm Dragonfly has run a couple of promising races and is another that has to be considered.

A decidedly ordinary maiden which can go to MARY SHOELACES if reproducing her best in a first-time visor. Hoover Dam and Mm Dragonfly have both shown enough to be worthy of consideration, while newcomer Ministry of Peace wouldn't need to anything out of the ordinary to make an impact.

This could go to MM DRAGONFLY, who showed promise over 1m before not quite getting home over 7f last time. This trip could be ideal.

1	4 1st (4) (11/8 +31%) Asgard's Captain		1.375 11/8(+31%)																															(4) Asgard's Captain 11/8, 4/6, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 4 days ago, plenty in hand. Has excellent claims under a 5 lb penalty. Has progressed again for his new yard this year; shortlisted under a 5lb penalty.
2	9 2nd (9) (10/1 -43%) Sense Of Worth		10 10/1(-43%)																															(9) Sense Of Worth 10/1, Latest win at Southwell in December and posted a good second of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 18 days ago, better placed than most. Can make presence felt if turning up in similar form. Found his level again this winter and nothing wrong with his latest second; player.
3	12 3rd (12) (12/1 -100%) Explorers Way		12 12/1(-100%)																															(12) Explorers Way 12/1, Followed up last month's win in 10-runner handicap over C&D (5/1) 20 days ago, just holding on. This is tougher but still warrants respect in his hat-trick bid. Four course wins in the last six months; this is tougher upped 4lb but enters calculations.
4	7 4th (7) (12/1 -33%) Percy Willis		12 12/1(-33%)																															(7) Percy Willis 12/1, Course winner. Good fifth of 12 in handicap (17/2) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 11 days ago. Should remain competitive. Consistent enough all winter bar a couple of blips over hurdles, and holds each-way claims.
5th	1 5th (1) (7/2 +61%) Cusack		3.5 7/2(+61%)																															(1) Cusack 7/2, 6-time course winner who came unstuck in his hat-trick bid when sixth of 12 in handicap (7/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 6 days ago. Back up in trip. The return here will help but he has to prove he can do it off this high a mark.
6th	2 6th (2) (14/1 +30%) My Little Queens		14 14/1(+30%)																															(2) My Little Queens 14/1, Two wins from 6 runs last year but failed to come on for recent run when only tenth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 21 days ago. Has something to prove at present. Hard to get excited by her record on Tapeta and she's some way down the pecking order.
7th	11 7th (11) (9/1 -157%) Urban Road		9 9/1(-157%)																															(11) Urban Road 9/1, C&D winner who returned to form and was unlucky not to finish closer when fourth of 9 in 10f handicap (7/1) at Chelmsford City 15 days ago. One to bear in mind. Unlucky not to go closer on Polytrack last time; goes on the shortlist off the same mark.
8th	5 8th (5) (100/1 -300%) Midnight Lion		100 100/1(-300%)																															(5) Midnight Lion 100/1, One win from 3 runs last year. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 16/1) 25 days ago, slowly away. Has work to do at present. Poor for this yard and would want to see good support before considering him.
9th	3 9th (3) (25/1 -25%) Law Supreme		25 25/1(-25%)																															(3) Law Supreme 25/1, 25/1, last of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 21 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Has run poorly twice since two seconds over shorter in January; isn't obviously fancied.
10th	10 10th (10) (80/1 -186%) The Vik		80 80/1(-186%)																															(10) The Vik 80/1, 11/1, ran poorly on first run since leaving A. Slattery when twelfth of 15 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, heavy). Off 10 months. Up in trip for tapeta debut. Off since a poor one last spring but worth a look in the market for a yard in decent nick.
11th	8 11th (8) (100/1 -614%) Emperor Caradoc		100 100/1(-614%)																															(8) Emperor Caradoc 100/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022 but wasn't seen to best effect when last of 12 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 28 days ago, hampered and shuffled back under 2f out. Bred to stay this appreciably longer trip. Not looked to see out 1m in a few tries and this is a step into the unknown stamina-wise.
12th	6 12th (6) (12/1 +40%) Skilled Warrior		12 12/1(+40%)																															(6) Skilled Warrior 12/1, Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Eighth of 10 in handicap (14/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 18 days ago, weakening when hampered 1f out. Regressive and needs to improve a deal on recent efforts to take this.

Asgard's Captain has progressed nicely over the last 12 months, although a 5lb penalty for Monday's triumph in an amateur jockeys' handicap at Wolverhampton means another personal best is required. With that in mind, SENSE OF WORTH, who won off 11lb higher during his time in Ireland, looks worth chancing off a highly competitive rating. The eight-year-old arrives in good form and is no back number just yet. Cusack completes the shortlist.

ASGARD'S CAPTAIN resumed winning ways with loads in hand at Wolverhampton at the beginning of the week and looks capable of following up under a penalty. Sense of Worth and hat-trick seeker Explorers Way are a couple of potential threats.

Having done nothing but progress in recent times, ASGARD'S CAPTAIN can defy the 5lb penalty. Urban Road is second choice.

1	8 1st (8) (18/1 -50%) Wrecking Ball Paul		18 18/1(-50%)																															(8) Wrecking Ball Paul 18/1, Course winner. Winner here in February. Ninth of 11 in handicap (13/2) at this course (12f) 7 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Needs to settle much better up to this trip and it would have to be doubtful that he can.
2	2 2nd (2) (11/8 +54%) Riyami		1.375 11/8(+54%)																															(2) Riyami 11/8, Third C&D win of winter when seeing off Rockview Consort by ½ length 16 days ago. Even a further 5 lb rise may not stop him. Most recently edged out today's rival Rockview Consort two weeks ago; up 5lb but claims.
3	4 3rd (4) (14/1 -100%) Eskimo Komet		14 14/1(-100%)																															(4) Eskimo Komet 14/1, Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 40/1, respectable third of 9 in handicap at this course (12f) 28 days ago, never nearer. Significantly up in trip. Did some good work at the finish in a 1m4f handicap here last month; not without a chance.
4	10 4th (10) (13/2 +35%) Liberated Light		6.5 13/2(+35%)																															(10) Liberated Light 13/2, 66/1, excellent fourth of 22 in maiden hurdle at Cork (16f, heavy) 55 days ago. Not discounted back on the Flat. Good run in a big-field maiden hurdle at Cork in January when last seen; respected.
5th	1 5th (1) (22/1 -267%) Razdan		22 22/1(-267%)																															(1) Razdan 22/1, Course winner. Respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, soft, 11/2), unable to sustain effort. Off 6 months. Significantly up in trip. Claims if ready to roll on return. Has it to prove over the trip and entitled to need the run so best watched.
6th	5 6th (5) (9/4 +32%) Rockview Consort		2.25 9/4(+32%)																															(5) Rockview Consort 9/4, Course winner. One win from 3 runs last year. Good ½-length second of 14 to Riyami in handicap at this C&D (22/1) 16 days ago. Should give another good account. Headed late by Riyami in a C&D handicap two weeks ago; 2lb better off and should go close.
7th	13 7th (13) (40/1 -186%) Kottayam		40 40/1(-186%)																															(13) Kottayam 40/1, 10½ lengths eleventh of 13 to Riyami in handicap at this C&D (10/1). Off 93 days. Down the field on his polytrack debut over C&D in November; others preferred.
8th	14 8th (14) (200/1 -506%) Liquid Metric		200 200/1(-506%)																															(14) Liquid Metric 200/1, 40/1, thirteenth of 14 in claimer at this course (10.7f) 35 days ago. Significantly up in trip. 0-9 on the Flat and showed very little over hurdles or on the Flat in the past year.
9th	11 9th (11) (25/1 -108%) Arabian King		25 25/1(-108%)																															(11) Arabian King 25/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.1f, heavy, 28/1) 13 days ago but was successful at Listowel when last seen on the Flat in September. Ran well in a Cheltenham handicap hurdle in October; well beaten three times subsequently.
10th	6 10th (6) (25/1 -25%) Tudor City		25 25/1(-25%)																															(6) Tudor City 25/1, One win from 3 runs last year. 66/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at this course (12f) on reappearance 49 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Significantly up in trip. Should be sharper with a run under his belt. Down the field in a 1m4f handicap here in January and probably best watched.
11th	9 11th (9) (28/1 -250%) Caulaincourt		28 28/1(-250%)																															(9) Caulaincourt 28/1, Sixth of 16 in juvenile hurdle (200/1) at Naas (15.5f, soft) 33 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Fair on the Flat, won on last Flat outing. Good run over hurdles at Naas; blinkers back on here and not without a chance if he stays.
12th	12 12th (12) (100/1 -300%) Dark Voyager		100 100/1(-300%)																															(12) Dark Voyager 100/1, 33/1 and blinkers on for 1st time in this code, fourth of 8 in claiming hurdle at Limerick (21f, heavy) 31 days ago. Poor on last Flat run. In rear in a C&D handicap before well beaten in a Limerick claiming hurdle last time.
13th	3 13th (3) (18/1 -300%) Next Week		18 18/1(-300%)																															(3) Next Week 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Fair winner at 17f in bumpers. Fifth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (7/2) 21 days ago, very slowly away. Left in the stalls on his first try over 2m here two weeks ago; deserves another chance.
7	7 |RR| (7) (33/1 +0%) Khadaash		33 33/1(+0%)																															(7) Khadaash 33/1, Unreliable sort. C&D winner. 25/1, tailed-off last of 14 to Riyami in handicap at this C&D 70 days ago, lost all chance at start. Won this race last year but temperament issues make him a big doubt here.

RIYAMI has been in fine form around here and may be able to go in again with Harry Swan on board. The Fastnet Rock gelding has won three times over course and distance this winter. He got home by half a length here 16 days ago but looked value for a bit more. He is obviously a bit worse off now with runner-up Rockview Consort, who is entitled to be a big player again. Liberated Light could be a danger here for the Gleesons. He returns to the Flat having been fourth over hurdles at Cork in early January. The full-brother to Cheltenham Bumper winner A Dream To Share is still relatively unexposed over this trip on the level.

RIYAMI progressed again on AW when seeing off Rockview Consort over C&D last month and might be able to defy the handicapper again. John McConnell's reopposing 5-y-o may provide the chief threat again. Eskimo Komet and the returning Razdan also make the shortlist.

Preference is marginally for ROCKVIEW CONSORT, just collared by Riyami here last time but with enough of a pull to turn the tables

5th	2 5th (2) (50/1 +24%) Dandycan		50 50/1(+24%)																															(2) Dandycan 50/1, Once-raced maiden. 80/1, seventh of 8 in minor event at Carlisle (7.8f, good) on debut. Off 6 months. Significantly down in trip. Best watched for yard whose Flat winners in recent times have come with older handicappers.

CAST NO SHADOW doesn't set the bar very high, but he fared better than Exponential (third) and Tees Harriet (fourth) when he was pipped by an upwardly-mobile filly in a maiden at Southwell last month. The Hugo Palmer-trained colt has to concede weight all round but with first-time cheekpieces applied, he rates the logical choice and is taken to cement his authority over his old rivals.

CAST NO SHADOW sets the standard and should be able to open his account in such a weak race. Exponential looks the main threat and the other trio haven't shown a great deal as yet.

There won't be any excuses for the standard-setting CAST NO SHADOW this time. Exponential can chase him home.

First run for yard after leaving Peter Fahey. Blinkers on 1st time. Ran well on latest Flat outing, too, and has to be taken seriously. 17-race maiden for Peter Fahey; blinkers tried here on his stable debut and best watched.

DARK STREET looks worth another try at this trip. He wasn't stopping when winning over the extended ten year in mid-January and has run a couple of solid races since when coming from the rear. His wide draw wouldn't be a major concern. Luke Comer has three in this and Brave Thought is another consistent sort who could run a big race. He has been knocking on the door recently. Lakewood head the weights on his first outing for Thomas Coyle and could be interesting having slipped 4lb since last seen finishing fourth in a Killarney maiden last September.

DARKENED shaped well when fourth over C&D on his first outing for this yard and, if he can build on that, he might be able to land this open-looking event. In-form pair Dark Street and Brave Thought are both dangers.

If reserve Neddies Boy doesn't get a run, the consistent BRAVE THOUGHT might just prove good enough if the step up in trip suits

1	2 1st (2) (11/1 +8%) Abruzzo Mia		11 11/1(+8%)																															(2) Abruzzo Mia 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in September. 15/2, 5 lengths ninth of 12 to Bobby Joe Leg in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Patchy at best since his win and needs to improve a deal on last month's effort here.
2	8 2nd (8) (7/1 +7%) Bobby Joe Leg		7 7/1(+7%)																															(8) Bobby Joe Leg 7/1, 7-time C&D winner. Latest win here in February. 9/1, last of 6 in handicap at this C&D 13 days ago. Likely to get back on track returned to more realistic grade. Said to have run flat into better company off this mark latest and now has to bounce back.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/1 -100%) Sir Maxi		10 10/1(-100%)																															(4) Sir Maxi 10/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 16 runs last year. Latest win here in November. 10/1, bit below form sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (6f) 17 days ago. Should be back on his game returning to more suitable trip. Has always had two ways of running but there are reasons for optimism.
4	11 4th (11) (8/1 -7%) Admiral Nelson		8 8/1(-7%)																															(11) Admiral Nelson 8/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap (13/2) at this course (8f) 26 days ago. Worthy of interest. Excuses with one thing and another since C&D win off 2lb lower on his stable debut; player.
5th	10 5th (10) (12/1 +25%) Global Spirit		12 12/1(+25%)																															(10) Global Spirit 12/1, Latest win at Pontefract in September. Eighth of 12 in handicap (22/1) at this C&D 17 days ago. Others make more appeal. Has resumed in fair nick and holds each-way claims in an open handicap down 2lb.
6th	7 6th (7) (28/1 -40%) Cold Stare		28 28/1(-40%)																															(7) Cold Stare 28/1, 28/1, respectable 4¾ lengths seventh of 12 to Bobby Joe Leg in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. More required. Finished behind a few of these over C&D four weeks ago; isn't obviously fancied.
7th	1 7th (1) (6/1 +20%) Gobi Sunset		6 6/1(+20%)																															(1) Gobi Sunset 6/1, C&D winner. 20/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap at this C&D 26 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs headgear to have a positive effect. Inconsistent; a lot hinges on the first-time cheekpieces (tried in blinkers once before).
8th	9 8th (9) (50/1 -52%) Arranmore		50 50/1(-52%)																															(9) Arranmore 50/1, Twenty four runs since last win in 2021. 40/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 17 days ago. Needs to up his game. Needs to improve a deal on his last two efforts over C&D if he's to break the losing run.
9th	5 9th (5) (11/4 +31%) Streak Lightning		2.75 11/4(+31%)																															(5) Streak Lightning 11/4, C&D winner. 13/2, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at this C&D, never nearer. Off 133 days. Shaping up well when last seen and worth taking a chance on after a break. Last two wins have come here in March, once back from an absence; has plenty in his favour.
10th	6 10th (6) (14/1 -87%) Sidney's Son		14 14/1(-87%)																															(6) Sidney's Son 14/1, Winner at Carlisle in August. 7/2, seventh of 11 in handicap at this C&D. Off 175 days. Others make more appeal. Low mileage and interesting to see how he goes in the market after six months off.
11th	3 11th (3) (18/1 -140%) Biplane		18 18/1(-140%)																															(3) Biplane 18/1, C&D winner. 50/1, good third of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, good to soft). Off 137 days. Likely to strip fitter for the run. Returns from a break on a career-high mark and will need to be spot on.
12th	12 12th (12) (13/2 -8%) Lope De Rueda		6.5 13/2(-8%)																															(12) Lope De Rueda 13/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Bit below form fifth of 14 in handicap at Gowran (8.3f, heavy, 33/1). Off 136 days. First run for yard after leaving Charles O'Brien. Hood back on. One to monitor in the betting starting out for shrewd connections. New yard has been among the winners under both codes and he's well worth a market check.

Bobby Joe Leg has form that ties in with a few of these, so cannot be dismissed given he is a reliable yardstick. However, his winning spree hit the buffers big time in a deeper race here 13 days ago and he is taken on with his well-handicapped stablemate STREAK LIGHTNING, who offers strong appeal as a dual C&D scorer off 4lb below his last winning mark. Biplane and Admiral Nelson are a couple of others worth noting in the betting.

STREAK LIGHTNING was much better than the result when fifth over C&D 4 months ago and, while he's not been seen since, he's worth taking a chance on in a race that could be run to suit. Sir Maxi is a danger back up in trip and Lope de Rueda is worth keeping in mind on his first outing for a new yard.

The vote goes to STREAK LIGHTNING (nap) who boasts a good record fresh, here and at this time of year. Admiral Nelson is next best.

The well-bred COW CHICO ran a nice race to finish second on his debut here last month and with natural improvement should prove hard to beat. The son of Frankel, and Irish Guineas third Foxtrot Liv, went down by a length-and-a-half to stablemate Neski Sherelski and this looks a winnable opportunity now. Tachos sets the standard off her official mark of 72. The Gleneagles filly shaped with promise in a few turf maidens and should be a big player in this grade on her return to action. Joseph O'Brien, trainer of the selection, also introduces newcomer Chinois. The Dark Angel filly is the first foal of Listed winner Summer Daydream.

This looks a decent opportunity for COW CHICO to build on his promising C&D debut second in January. Tachos could be the one to give him most to do unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding the selection's debuting stablemate Chinois.

This seems like an ideal opportunity for COW CHICO to step up a place following a C&D debut second behind a well-fancied stablemate.

ELEUTHEROMANIA ran with much more encouragement when runner-up on the Lingfield turf in July. Now under the tutelage of George Boughey, she should hold every chance of finishing one place better, providing she is tuned up for this seasonal/all-weather debut. A 141-day break may have freshened up Agnes Grey, who would prove dangerous on the pick of her form, while any market support for newcomer Lakota Brave must be heeded.

Preference is for ELEUTHEROMANIA, who left her debut form well behind when second at Lingfield last summer and remains with potential for her new yard. Agnes Grey looks the likeliest danger on form, whilst Lakota Brave may be the pick of the newcomers.

Upped in distance, CALDER VALLEY could well get off the mark. Second choice is Eleutheromania.

Aidan O'Brien has won this with some smart sorts in recent years and HENRY ADAMS looks the one to beat in this renewal. The No Nay Never colt was last seen finishing fourth behind star stablemate City Of Troy in the Dewhurst in October and was a dual winner last season, including taking the Group 3 Tyros Stakes at Leopardstown. The other Ballydoyle runner, Navy Seal, is rated 4lb inferior. He also showed a decent level last season, winning a Galway maiden and finishing fifth in Group 1 company, in the Criterium International, at Saint-Cloud in October. The other two runners have a fitness advantage but look up against it. The Joseph O'Brien-trained Nerano was a good maiden winner here last month but this is a different level of opposition now.

On the face of it NERANO has a fair bit to find with the Ballydoyle duo of Henry Adams and Navy Seal, but he looked good when scoring over C&D last month and brings plenty of potential to the table. Henry Adams is Ryan Moore's pick and he is feared greatly on the strength of his efforts in Group 1 company during the autumn.

Ryan Moore's mount HENRY ADAMS was fourth behind City Of Troy in the Dewhurst and can make a winning start to the campaign

Visor back on. Others more persuasive. Placed twice at Wolverhampton in December and ran okay at Dundalk on recent stable debut.

Although respected, a 5lb penalty will make life tougher for Wolverhampton scorer Gustav Graves, which edges the vote in the direction of SUGAR HILL BABE. Lisa Williamson's filly overcame a tardy beginning over C&D last month, winning well under Alex Jary, and there could be more to come. Beylerbeyi is effectively 4lb well-in, but the drop from 7f may be enough to prevent him from gaining compensation for last week's Wolverhampton near-miss.

GUSTAV GRAVES arrives in the form of his life and may be able to record his fourth success of the year. Wee Fat Mac and Beylerbeyi rate the principal dangers.

The answer might be MAHARAJAS EXPRESS, who lost out only narrowly to Gustav Graves two starts ago and is now 7lb better off.

Needs a couple of these to falter. Second in a C&D handicap in January with Alto Sax in third, hung badly here last time.
7th	11 7th (11) (50/1 -257%) Bacio		50 50/1(-257%)																															(11) Bacio 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, eighth of 13 in maiden at this C&D (125/1) 28 days ago. Improvement required on handicap debut. Soundly beaten in three maiden runs, tongue-tie seemed to help only marginally last time..
8th	9 8th (9) (33/1 -106%) Gregorina		33 33/1(-106%)																															(9) Gregorina 33/1, 14/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 35 days ago. Blinkers back on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Best run when third over C&D on penultimate start, held by Alto Sax based on latest run.
9th	13 9th (13) (33/1 -136%) Hanoi		33 33/1(-136%)																															(13) Hanoi 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, eighth of 13 in maiden at this C&D 14 days ago, not knocked about. Worth monitoring on handicap debut. Ordinary form in maidens, perhaps some prospect that he will find his level in handicaps.
10th	10 10th (10) (66/1 -100%) Go On Go On Uhavit		66 66/1(-100%)																															(10) Go On Go On Uhavit 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, ninth of 10 in nursery at Naas (5f, good to soft). Off 169 days. Significantly up in trip. Not easy to make a strong case for. Does not look enough based on a 5f nursery outing on turf, longer trip may be some help.
11th	14 11th (14) (80/1 -142%) Stall The Ball		80 80/1(-142%)																															(14) Stall The Ball 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Joseph Anthony Murray when ninth of 13 in maiden at this C&D (150/1) 14 days ago. Blinkers applied for handicap debut. Blinkered for first handicap, 3lb out of the handicap but has a good 7lb claimer aboard.
12th	1 12th (1) (7/1 -40%) Rebelsontherun		7 7/1(-40%)																															(1) Rebelsontherun 7/1, Found improvement when winning 3-runner handicap at this course (7f, 6/1) 16 days ago, joining leader line. Just 1 lb higher now and not taken lightly. Did well to force a dead-heat with the long odds-on Beautiful Dawn over 7f 16 days ago.
13th	6 13th (6) (13/2 -30%) Pandion Power		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(6) Pandion Power 13/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, last of 10 in maiden at the Curragh (7f, heavy). Off 159 days. Work to do on handicap debut. Curragh efforts did not confirm mild AW promise, but he should be more mature now.
14th	12 14th (12) (66/1 -164%) Relentless Flyer		66 66/1(-164%)																															(12) Relentless Flyer 66/1, 22/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at this C&D 45 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Fourth in a nursery here last November, less encouraging form in three runs for this yard.

REBELSONTHERUN only got a pound after dead-heating here 16 days ago and may be able to follow up. He was niggled along at stages then over seven and only really started to motor late on so stepping up a furlong looks like it could bring further improvement. There wasn't much between him and Blue Soul at the line that day and that rival also has to be on the shortlist. It interesting that Colin Keane rides Alto Sax from the two Ger Lyons-trained runners and he has to be respected. The Saxon Warrior gelding was third over course and distance on his last outing.

ALTO SAX figures off a handy mark and arrives on back of good third in a stronger contest in January. He gets the nod. Rebelsontherun and Mary Bagot head the list of dangers.

Colin Keane's choice of ALTO SAX over stablemate Blue Soul is a positive factor that earns him the vote in an open contest

Not taken lightly. Three course wins, the latest narrowly over 7f off 4lb lower; not sure to repeat that.
2	4 2nd (4) (12/1 +25%) Rocket Rod		12 12/1(+25%)																															(4) Rocket Rod 12/1, C&D winner. Tenth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (17/2) 57 days ago. Others more persuasive. Rattled off a hat-trick here in 2022 and well handicapped again; too bad to be true latest.

Not an obvious sort for the follow up. Good value for narrow defeat of Mercurius Power here in January; up just the 4lb.
4	1 4th (1) (6/1 +14%) Mercurius Power		6 6/1(+14%)																															(1) Mercurius Power 6/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Creditable third of 12 in handicap at this C&D (5/1) 26 days ago. Worth considering. Five-time winner; exposed but running well having made the frame here the last twice.
5th	12 5th (12) (17/2 -70%) Lochnaver		8.5 17/2(-70%)																															(12) Lochnaver 17/2, Course winner. Latest win here in November. Good second of 10 in handicap (6/1) at this course (10.2f) 10 days ago. Down in trip. Should remain competitive. Recent second here but over 1m2f and not raced at a mile for a long time.
6th	10 6th (10) (25/1 +24%) Anif		25 25/1(+24%)																															(10) Anif 25/1, 3-time C&D winner. 16/1, 7¾ lengths seventh of 9 to Danielsflyer in handicap at this course (7.1f) 13 days ago. Multiple winner but has been struggling for a while now.
7th	11 7th (11) (11/2 -38%) Masterpainter		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(11) Masterpainter 11/2, 5/1 and visored for 1st time, very good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D 10 days ago, just failing. Shortlist material. Gave it good go in the new visor when beaten a head over C&D ten days ago.
8th	8 8th (8) (12/1 -50%) Concert Boy		12 12/1(-50%)																															(8) Concert Boy 12/1, Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Bit below form 5 lengths fifth of 9 to Danielsflyer in handicap (3/1) at this course (7.1f) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. Could have run better here 13 days ago when behind Danielsflyer.
9th	3 9th (3) (9/1 +25%) Reel Prospect		9 9/1(+25%)																															(3) Reel Prospect 9/1, C&D winner. Winner here in October. 20/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 26 days ago. Could be on the premises again. Never getting there from off the pace when beaten just under 6l the last time.
10th	5 10th (5) (28/1 -40%) Dougies Dream		28 28/1(-40%)																															(5) Dougies Dream 28/1, C&D winner. Last of 15 in minor event at Doncaster (8f, good, 5/1). Off 166 days. Something to prove. Badly out of form when last seen but potentially interesting off this mark.
11th	9 11th (9) (100/1 -525%) Elladora		100 100/1(-525%)																															(9) Elladora 100/1, 7/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to soft). Off 159 days. Significantly back up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Katie Scott. Won four times for Katie Scott when often making the running; fine on Tapeta.
12th	7 12th (7) (22/1 -214%) Loom Large		22 22/1(-214%)																															(7) Loom Large 22/1, Course winner. Latest win here in October. 6/1, last of 8 in handicap at this course (10.2f) 28 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Back down in trip. Had a wind op since last run; both wins at 1m2f but fine at this trip; hard to rule out.

Armoured sprung a shock to get up by half a length over C&D and he would be foolish to dismiss off only 4lb higher. However, he could come out second best to MASTERPAINTER, who showed improvement in a first-time visor when just touched off over track and trip, and he is due to go up 2lb after this. Lochnaver, who was also beaten a head into second on the same card last week, is another to consider.

MASTERPAINTER reacted well to a visor when second over C&D last time and he's handicapped to win, so he takes preference over Danielsflyer, who also arrives on the back of a solid showing. Lochnaver is also considered.

This isn't certain to be strongly run and ARMOURED came from off the pace here last time but he appeals as a horse with more to offer.

1	1 1st (1) (5/2 +38%) Hightimeyouwon		2.5 5/2(+38%)																															(1) Hightimeyouwon 5/2, C&D winner. Three wins from 15 runs last year. Creditable second of 8 in handicap (11/4) at this course (8f) 7 days ago. Blinkers back on. Looks competitive on form. Second in five of his last six races at this venue, obvious candidate for the shortlist.
2	2 2nd (2) (11/2 -10%) Exquisite Acclaim		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(2) Exquisite Acclaim 11/2, Won 13-runner handicap at this course (8f, 13/2) 21 days ago by neck from Hightimeyouwon, battling well. One to consider. Gained third course win in a 1m handicap three weeks ago, at least as effective over 7f.
3	8 3rd (8) (7/2 +36%) Super Over		3.5 7/2(+36%)																															(8) Super Over 7/2, C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 7/2) 28 days ago. Not discounted. Three AW wins over 7f/1m, has made the frame in three of his last four races at this track.
4	4 4th (4) (20/1 -100%) Prisoner's Dilemma		20 20/1(-100%)																															(4) Prisoner's Dilemma 20/1, 3-time C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Fourth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (11/2) 30 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form. Running well at this venue lately but a long time since he has tackled this trip..
5th	10 5th (10) (14/1 -100%) Macadam's Rock		14 14/1(-100%)																															(10) Macadam's Rock 14/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 4/1, good third of 13 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Place possibilities. In good form since his return from a break, most of his best course form has been over 7f.
6th	12 6th (12) (14/1 +13%) May Night		14 14/1(+13%)																															(12) May Night 14/1, ½-length second of 12 to Ransom in claimer (22/1) at this course (8f) 14 days ago. Looks vulnerable. Second to Ransom in a recent claimer, has dropped in the ratings, could be competitive.
7th	9 7th (9) (33/1 -65%) Miqdaad		33 33/1(-65%)																															(9) Miqdaad 33/1, Lightly-raced winner. C&D winner. Winner here in January. 12/1, ninth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f) 28 days ago. Others have achieved more.

8th	5 8th (5) (11/1 -10%) Alexander John		11 11/1(-10%)																															(5) Alexander John 11/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 14-runner maiden (14/1) at this C&D 7 days ago, unchallenged. More needed back in handicap company. Front-running winner of 7f maiden here last Friday, mark could prove to be reasonable.
9th	11 9th (11) (125/1 -279%) Tomahawk King		125 125/1(-279%)																															(11) Tomahawk King 125/1, Tenth of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm). Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving Jack Channon. Not easy to make a case for. Best form for the Channons was on AW, unplaced in two turf runs last year, Irish debut.
10th	3 10th (3) (7/1 -27%) Ransom		7 7/1(-27%)																															(3) Ransom 7/1, Didn't need to improve to win 12-runner claimer at this course (8f, 8/11) 14 days ago by ½ length from May Night, driven out. First run for yard after leaving Denis Hogan. Has good chance on form. Consistent in defeat before recording an odds-on win in a claimer here a fortnight ago.
11th	6 11th (6) (11/1 +21%) Charlisse		11 11/1(+21%)																															(6) Charlisse 11/1, Lightly-raced winner. C&D winner. One win from 2 runs last year. Latest win here in September. Creditable sixth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 18/1) 28 days ago. Two 7f wins at this venue, too keen and failed to get home over this trip last month.
12th	7 12th (7) (22/1 -214%) Rumbled Again		22 22/1(-214%)																															(7) Rumbled Again 22/1, First run since leaving Denis Hogan when creditable second of 14 in handicap (6/1) at this course (6f). Off 154 days. First run for yard after leaving Adrian Brendan Joyce. Second over 6f here last September, lacks a recent run but capable of going well.

MAY NIGHT won four times over this trip in Britain and may be worth a short here at a price after a good run in claiming company last time. He has been slipping down the weights and following another 4lb drop since his runner-up effort here a fortnight ago he's starting to look attractive. Alexander John benefitted from forcing tactics when winning a maiden here last week and could be capable of a big show back in handicap company at this trip. Hightimeyouwon has been a touch frustrating but keeps hitting the crossbar and has to be on the shortlist.

RANSOM wasn't far behind Exquisite Acclaim and Hightimeyouwon when third over C&D last month and is taken to turn the tables on that duo this time. Indeed, he meets those rivals on slightly better terms and subsequently got his head back in front when outpointing May Night in a claimer here. Hightimeyouwon is second choice, while Super Over is on a workable mark and also commands considerable respect.

Rated 10lb higher than this after an ambitious Classic attempt, ALEXANDER JOHN won a maiden well here last week and may follow up

1	8 1st (8) (50/1 -79%) Retirement Beckons		50 50/1(-79%)																															(8) Retirement Beckons 50/1, Three wins from 17 runs last year. 22/1, last of 7 in handicap at this C&D 36 days ago, slowly away. Hard to fancy. Nine-time winner on turf but this year's AW form has been very disappointing.
2	2 2nd (2) (4/1 +33%) Ana Emaraaty		4 4/1(+33%)																															(2) Ana Emaraaty 4/1, Modest gelding. Creditable fifth of 12 in minor event at this course (10.2f, 14/1) 20 days ago. Down in trip. Each-way claims. Not beaten far in this grade last month, after a break; drops back from 1m2f; a possible.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/2 -67%) Ledger		2.5 5/2(-67%)																															(1) Ledger 5/2, Took advantage of drop in grade when winning 9-runner minor event over C&D (15/8) 8 days ago, forging clear. Holds solid follow-up claims. Clearcut winner of very similar race in refitted cheekpieces last week; has 5lb penalty.
4	5 4th (5) (5/2 +0%) Copper Mountain		2.5 5/2(+0%)																															(5) Copper Mountain 5/2, Below best latest but had got back to winning ways over this trip at Southwell previously and ran well here in the autumn. Shortlisted. Beaten at odds-on last time but won in this grade two starts ago; likely contender.
5th	7 5th (7) (25/1 -79%) Mr Coco Bean		25 25/1(-79%)																															(7) Mr Coco Bean 25/1, Modest gelding. Thirty six runs since last win in 2021. 25/1, respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 10 days ago, hampered. Makes limited appeal. Placed twice over 7f here last month but younger rivals appeal more all the same.
6th	3 6th (3) (10/1 -54%) Child Of Lir		10 10/1(-54%)																															(3) Child Of Lir 10/1, Modest gelding. C&D winner. Winner here in September. 8/1, 3¼ lengths third of 9 to Ledger in minor event at this C&D 8 days ago. Others preferred. Big step back in right direction when placed behind Ledger over C&D last week.
7th	4 7th (4) (6/1 +40%) Coligone Kate		6 6/1(+40%)																															(4) Coligone Kate 6/1, Remains a maiden after 20 Flat starts but showed benefit of recent run when creditable third of 8 in handicap over C&D (13/2) 20 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again. Bettered low-key stable debut when third in C&D handicap last month; one to consider.
8th	9 8th (9) (28/1 -12%) Run At Dawn		28 28/1(-12%)																															(9) Run At Dawn 28/1, Poor gelding. 3¼ lengths fourth of 9 to Ledger in minor event at this C&D (40/1) 8 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Still looking for first success. Belied 40-1 odds when placed over C&D last week but overall profile remains unappealing.
9th	6 9th (6) (25/1 +0%) Fulltime		25 25/1(+0%)																															(6) Fulltime 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, first run since leaving Eoin Griffin when 6¼ lengths sixth of 9 to Ledger in minor event at this C&D (25/1) 8 days ago, slowly away. Work to do. Persistently denied clear run when sixth over C&D on recent stable debut.

LEDGER had Child Of Lir back in third when scoring in comfortable fashion at this level over C&D last week and, considering the manner of that victory, he could prove difficult to stop in his follow-up bid. That was Child Of Lir's best effort for a while so he has to be considered. Copper Mountain makes the most appeal of the rest based on her victory at Southwell two starts ago.

This can go to COPPER MOUNTAIN, who was unsuited by the drop in trip when below par at Southwell last time and came close on her last 2 visits here. Ledger and Coligone Kate are feared most.

Lucinda Russell's LEDGER was a pretty convincing C&D winner last week and is taken to overcome his 5lb penalty.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
