1	17 1st (17) (9/2 +50%) Gwennie May Boy		4.5 9/2(+50%)																															(17) Gwennie May Boy 9/2, Won twice for Jonjo O'Neill last term and immediate improvement for new yard since returning to action in February, building on Bangor reappearance success when landing a big pot on Midlands National day at Uttoxeter (23.3f, heavy). Up 9 lb for that but he did the job well and has to be feared. 2-2 for Dan Skelton; had several of these behind him at Uttoxeter; good claims.
2	19 2nd (19) (18/1 -13%) Lord Snootie		18 18/1(-13%)																															(19) Lord Snootie 18/1, Improver when sent handicapping last season, scoring over 3¼m at Warwick, and he ran a cracker when a strong-finishing second to Cuthbert Dibble at Haydock (24.2f, heavy) on penultimate start. However, subsequent moody display at Uttoxeter left a bitter taste and he now has a bit to prove. Can't be trusted after very poor last run but is a threat judged on previous second.
3	4 3rd (4) (11/4 +45%) West Balboa		2.75 11/4(+45%)																															(4) West Balboa 11/4, Decisive winner of this on final start of a productive 2022/23 campaign and made it 2-2 here when making a successful seasonal reappearance in November. Well held in graded company next 2 outings but shaped well back in a handicap at Kempton last time and likely to be spot-on for this assignment. Won this 12 months ago and showed clear signs of revival last time; commands major respect.
4	9 4th (9) (9/1 +25%) Johnnywho		9 9/1(+25%)																															(9) Johnnywho 9/1, Successful in a Taunton bumper and 2½m Carlisle novice hurdle on first 2 starts under Rules. Followed those wins with a fine fourth in the Grade 1 Challow at Newbury in December but hasn't matched that since and will need to get back on track if he's to make a winning handicap debut off this mark. Two underwhelming runs this year, including when upped to 3m last time; needs a revival.
5th	3 5th (3) (9/1 +18%) Monmiral		9 9/1(+18%)																															(3) Monmiral 9/1, Has proved costly to follow subsequent to landing the Grade 1 Anniversary Hurdle at this meeting in 2021 but the addition of blinkers reignited his spark when seeing off 21 rivals in the Pertemps Final at the Cheltenham Festival. 6 lb rise looks manageable and he has to enter calculations. Responded well to first-time blinkers when winning the Pertemps Final; leading contender.
6th	14 6th (14) (9/1 +18%) Black Bamboo		9 9/1(+18%)																															(14) Black Bamboo 9/1, Made the most of a good opportunity to get off the mark at Cork in October and has shaped well in handicaps since, finishing sixth of 21 in the Coral Cup at the Cheltenham Festival (21f, heavy) last time. Stepping back up in trip here looks a good move and he's one to consider off the same mark. Good sixth in the Coral Cup; this return to 3m should suit; one to take seriously.
7th	18 7th (18) (66/1 -100%) Classic Concorde		66 66/1(-100%)																															(18) Classic Concorde 66/1, Into the veteran stage of his career but has thrived this season, winning 6 times, the latest coming in comfortable fashion at Chepstow in February. The wheels came off in the race won by Gwennie May Boy at Uttoxeter last time but subsequently found to have bled, so that can probably be excused. Admirable veteran but bled from the nose last time and this looks a hot race.
8th	13 8th (13) (40/1 +0%) J'ai Froid		40 40/1(+0%)																															(13) J'ai Froid 40/1, Tough veteran who was a big improver in 2021 and back to winning ways at Leicester and Warwick this term. Fair fourth behind Cuthbert Dibble at Haydock in February but will do well to turn the tables on that progressive rival here. Successful twice this term but well held by Cuthbert Dibble at Haydock last time.
9th	5 9th (5) (16/1 +0%) Chantry House		16 16/1(+0%)																															(5) Chantry House 16/1, High-class chaser at his best and, having lost his way in that sphere, he has shaped well in a couple of handicap hurdles this season. However, he was only mid-field in first-time blinkers (on again here) in the Pertemps Final and Bold Endeavour appears to be the stable No 1. Has underperformed since an encouraging reappearance but too well treated to be dismissed.
10th	12 10th (12) (12/1 +0%) Fine Margin		12 12/1(+0%)																															(12) Fine Margin 12/1, Maiden who made a promising debut for the Willie Mullins yard when runner-up in a valuable Haydock handicap (24.2f, good to soft) earlier this season. Shaped as though amiss when returning from a break last month at Leopardstown but wouldn't be without a chance if able to get back on track. Disappointing last time but has good claims on previous second in strong race at Haydock.
11th	2 11th (2) (14/1 +30%) Bold Endeavour		14 14/1(+30%)																															(2) Bold Endeavour 14/1, Likeable and reliable sort who has yet to get his head in front this season but has performed with credit on several occasions, not least when fourth to Monmiral in the Pertemps Final last month. Current mark doesn't leave much margin for error but he's effective in these big-field scenarios. Goes well in big-field handicaps; fourth in Pertemps at Cheltenham; could make frame again.
12th	21 12th (21) (28/1 -12%) Seefin		28 28/1(-12%)																															(21) Seefin 28/1, Much improved upped in trip/switched to handicaps this season, registering his third success in decisive fashion at Warwick in January. However, he was pulled up in the Uttoxeter race won by stablemate Gwennie May Boy last time and appears to be the least fancied of the yard's 3 contenders. Poor effort at Uttoxeter brought progressive run of form to an abrupt end.
13th	1 13th (1) (50/1 -79%) Red Risk		50 50/1(-79%)																															(1) Red Risk 50/1, Won twice back hurdling in 2022 and good second to Botox Has in the West Yorkshire Hurdle at Wetherby in November. However, he was a well-held fourth behind the same rival in a Haydock Grade 2 last time and looks up against it under top-weight in this competitive handicap. Cheekpieces applied. Down the field twice since good Wetherby run; headgear needs to make a difference.
14th	22 14th (22) (80/1 -60%) Russian Ruler		80 80/1(-60%)																															(22) Russian Ruler 80/1, Evidently not been the easiest to train but appeared to be on the improve when landing a Newbury handicap and Kempton novice late last season. This season hasn't gone to plan, though (over fences initially), and it's probably best to look elsewhere. Pulled up in the Martin Pipe last time; stamina for 3m is unproven; difficult to recommend.
15th	6 15th (6) (13/2 +7%) Cuthbert Dibble		6.5 13/2(+7%)																															(6) Cuthbert Dibble 13/2, Progressive last term and has continued on an upward curve this season, scoring at Chepstow and Haydock prior to finishing a fine third to Monmiral in the Pertemps Final. 5 lb pull gives him realistic hope of reversing those placings and he's a must for the shortlist. Consistent; fine third when favourite for last month's Pertemps; high on the list again.
16th	11 16th (11) (28/1 +0%) Johnson's Blue		28 28/1(+0%)																															(11) Johnson's Blue 28/1, Progressive and likeable hurdler who added to his impressive strike rate when landing a 10-runner Doncaster handicap (3m. heavy) in February. 5 lb rise fair, albeit he was rather fortunate that day (looked booked for second when left clear 2 out) and this demands a clear career-best. Career best when winning at Doncaster; genuine and consistent but this is tougher.
16	16 |PU| (16) (33/1 -65%) Ramo		33 33/1(-65%)																															(16) Ramo 33/1, Progressive since upped to staying trips, notching third success on return at Ludlow in November. Sound placed efforts on last 3 starts, most recently when overhauled close home by a fellow improver at Lingfield (23f, good to soft) in January, but no more than an each-way squeak here. Reliable; good second at Lingfield; likely to give running but is creeping up the weights.
8	8 |PU| (8) (66/1 -100%) Ailie Rose		66 66/1(-100%)																															(8) Ailie Rose 66/1, Resumed winning ways in good style when taking a 4-runner Ayr handicap (24.3f, heavy) in January but she was put firmly in her place in a big-field at Leopardstown next time. Others make more appeal. Faced only three opponents when scoring at Ayr; needs personal best off career-high mark.
10	10 |PU| (10) (66/1 +18%) Floueur		66 66/1(+18%)																															(10) Floueur 66/1, Useful winning hurdler/chaser for Gordon Elliott and, after a quiet spell for both Gary Hanmer and this yard, he bounced back when going close at Doncaster on penultimate start. However, failed to repeat that level form in the Uttoxeter handicap won by Gwennie May Boy last time. Went down narrowly at Doncaster in March but well beaten otherwise this term; unconvincing.
7	7 |PU| (7) (80/1 -220%) Landrake		80 80/1(-220%)																															(7) Landrake 80/1, Useful hurdler for Gordon Elliott last season but hasn't taken at all well to fences this time round, offering little in 3 maiden chases in Ireland. Resumes in this sphere in a very competitive race but mark for this handicap bow/yard debut could be fair and he's one to keep an eye on. Useful hurdler last season but has since cut little ice over fences; new stable; risky.
20	20 |PU| (20) (125/1 -56%) Storm Nelson		125 125/1(-56%)																															(20) Storm Nelson 125/1, Won 5 of his 8 starts during a very good spell with Sandy Thomson. Best effort since joining present yard when 13 lengths third of 10 to Johnson's Blue at Doncaster last time but will need to step up on that considerably if he's to play a leading role here. Doesn't look quite the force of old and would be a surprise winner.

An eye-catcher when staying on from off the pace at Kempton last month, WEST BALBOA could be primed for a repeat of her impressive success in this contest last year. Only 6lb higher and a winner here over shorter in November, Dan Skelton's mare is preferred to her hat-trick seeking stablemate Gwennie May Boy and the class-dropping Johnnywho, who makes his handicap debut. Pertemps winner Monmiral is entitled to be thereabouts, along with the improving Honor Grey and Black Bamboo, who should appreciate going back up in trip after a respectable effort in the Coral Cup.

Dan Skelton holds a strong hand with two of his three representatives, namely WEST BALBOA and Gwennie May Boy, boasting good credentials. The former doesn't look badly treated off a mark 6 lb higher compared to when winning this in good style last year and her latest effort at Kempton was encouraging. Gwennie May Boy looked good at Uttoxeter and is clear second choice despite going up 9 lb, while Black Bamboo makes serious each-way appeal. Monmiral and Cuthbert Dibble are others to consider.

Dominant in this 12 months ago, WEST BALBOA looked as if coming to the boil at Kempton and can extend her unbeaten record at Aintree.

1	1 1st (1) (2/1 +0%) Horn Cape		2 2/1(+0%)																															(1) Horn Cape 2/1, Has thrived since returning to hurdles and resumed winning ways in 7-runner handicap over C&D in February. Found only the 145-rated Brentford Hope too good back here 4 weeks ago and nothing of that one's class in opposition now. Two C&D wins this winter and bumped into well-handicapped winner over C&D last time.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/4 +45%) Coniston George		2.75 11/4(+45%)																															(4) Coniston George 11/4, Has done well switched to hurdling, winning twice at up to 17f. Not seen to best effect in messy race at Ayr (20.4f) 5 weeks ago and remains with potential back in trip for handicap debut. Two novice hurdle wins this term; only third last time but not ruled out on handicap debut.
3	5 3rd (5) (9/4 +10%) One More Stroke		2.25 9/4(+10%)																															(5) One More Stroke 9/4, Has made a promising start over hurdles, winning novices at Catterick in January and Carlisle (17f, always holding on having been left clear 2 out) in March. Open to further improvement from potentially lenient opening mark. 5yo who is 2-2 over hurdles; goes handicapping off fair mark and could continue to improve.
2	2 |U| (2) (9/2 -64%) From The Clouds		4.5 9/2(-64%)																															(2) From The Clouds 9/2, Has made a good start over hurdles, winning maiden and novice over C&D the last twice, making all 4 weeks ago. Can do better again now handicapping. Has won over C&D on heavy the last twice and brings plenty of potential to handicap debut.
3	3 |PU| (3) (150/1 -200%) Nonbinding		150 150/1(-200%)																															(3) Nonbinding 150/1, Dual winner over hurdles over 2m in Ireland in autumn 2022. Missed a while and pulled up twice in points for new yard last month. Hard to fancy. Pulled up in two point-to-points last month and has plenty to prove.

From The Clouds and One More Stroke come into this on the back of securing doubles, so they boast appealing profiles on their handicap debuts, with slight preference for the former. However, they could both be up against it to deny HORN CAPE, who produced another good display to finish second to a subsequent winner in this grade over C&D last month and a 2lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from going one better.

ONE MORE STROKE can go on improving now handicapping and the hat-trick could be on the cards. Dual C&D winner From The Clouds has a similar profile and looks set for another big run along with the more exposed but in-form Horn Cape.

Topweight HORN CAPE faces some unexposed novices in an interesting little race but has been progressive over C&D and can win once more.

1	2 1st (2) (13/2 -8%) Zambezi Fix		6.5 13/2(-8%)																															(2) Zambezi Fix 13/2, Justified good support when staying on well to score over C&D in December and finished runner-up over fences/hurdles next 2 starts. Shaped as if still in form prior to falling 2 out at Exeter (17.5f) 5 weeks ago and he's not discounted here. Largely consistent over fences and hurdles, and runs this track well; in the mix.
2	9 2nd (9) (11/2 -10%) Double Click		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(9) Double Click 11/2, Bounced back with a career-best effort to land a 9-runner C&D handicap last time. Not an easy ride and has a rather up-and-down profile but he's a player if on his game. Quirky customer who ran in snatches before winning over C&D last month; hard to predict.
3	6 3rd (6) (6/4 +25%) Wise Guy		1.5 6/4(+25%)																															(6) Wise Guy 6/4, 5-y-o who boasts a progressive profile in handicaps, making it 2 wins from last 3 starts when running out an 8-length winner at Carlisle (17f) 2 weeks ago, keeping on well. Stable continue in terrific order and claims from 8 lb higher mark. Progressive 5yo who drew 8l clear to score under Harry Atkins at Carlisle a fortnight ago.
4	4 4th (4) (7/1 +0%) Tommie Gun		7 7/1(+0%)																															(4) Tommie Gun 7/1, Made a successful debut over hurdles in 2m novice at Southwell in December. Failed to build on that next 2 starts but back on track when third on handicap bow at Newbury (16.3f, soft) last time and should make his presence felt here off 1 lb lower. Kept on well for third on handicap debut at Newbury; could still have a bigger run in him.
5th	10 5th (10) (15/2 +17%) Valens Bruyee		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(10) Valens Bruyee 15/2, Left previous efforts in this sphere well behind when off the mark in a C&D novice in January. Held back by his jumping in pair of handicaps subsequently but handicapper is easing his grip and he remains lightly raced. Shock C&D winner in January but not in same form in 2m3f handicap here last month.
6th	1 6th (1) (8/1 -14%) Lunar Sovereign		8 8/1(-14%)																															(1) Lunar Sovereign 8/1, Lightly-raced 8-y-o who caught the eye when fourth in the Swinton Hurdle at Haydock when last seen in Spring of last year. Absent since but unlikely to be lacking for fitness given his stable and underfoot conditions will hold no fears. Very creditable fourth in major Haydock handicap last May; not seen again since.
7th	5 7th (5) (33/1 -65%) I Have A Voice		33 33/1(-65%)																															(5) I Have A Voice 33/1, Won twice in juvenile hurdles last season but has been some way below that level in pair of handicap starts since returning from an absence this year. Mark is easing at least and cheekpieces (on when winning on the Flat) return here. Back from break with two heavy defeats this year; cheekpieces refitted today.
7	7 |PU| (7) (22/1 -214%) Believe Jack		22 22/1(-214%)																															(7) Believe Jack 22/1, Back to winning ways in this first-time headgear in 2m Catterick claiming hurdle last month (final start for Olly Murphy). On a fair mark starting out for new yard but consistency hasn't been his forte. Claimed for £5,000 after winning in first-time blinkers last month; this race is tougher.
8	8 |PU| (8) (40/1 -233%) Lucky Lugger		40 40/1(-233%)																															(8) Lucky Lugger 40/1, Showed little in pair of bumpers but some encouragement to glean from exploits over hurdles for new yard. third of 7 in a C&D novice 12 days ago. That may not prove his limit now attentions switch to handicaps. Shaped with significant promise in two recent novice races; makes handicap debut today.

WISE GUY made amends for a costly Huntingdon defeat when getting back on the winning trail at Carlisle, and he apparently loves it when the mud is flying. He can defy an 8lb rise and confirm his superiority over Double Click, who was a long way behind him at Lingfield in February but has since got his head back in front over C&D. Zambezi Fix is always worth a look at Chepstow, while Tommie Gun made a pleasing handicap bow at Newbury, and Lunar Sovereign is interesting on his first appearance since finishing fourth in last year's Swinton.

WISEGUY took another step forward when making it 2 wins from his last 3 starts at Carlisle 2 weeks ago and he looks to hold good claims again from his revised mark with his yard continuing in fine form. Fellow last-time-out winner Double Click and Zambezi Fix head up the dangers, with Lunar Sovereign another to note on his return to action.

Preference is for TOMMIE GUN, who was placed in a heavy-ground handicap last month and may do better if conditions improve here.

1	9 1st (9) (6/5 +36%) Brighterdaysahead		1.2 6/5(+36%)																															(9) Brighterdaysahead 6/5, Won her first 5 starts, including Grade 3 and Listed novice hurdles this winter. Lost her unbeaten record in the Dawn Run at Cheltenham (17f, soft) but still ran with credit in second and the greater emphasis on stamina here should suit. Player for stable seeking a third successive win in this. Highly regarded; emerged as the best mare at the weights in the Dawn Run; big player.
2	8 2nd (8) (20/1 -43%) Staffordshire Knot		20 20/1(-43%)																															(8) Staffordshire Knot 20/1, Changed hands for €510,000 after bumper/maiden hurdle wins in January. Confirmed he's a useful novice when 4 lengths second of 6 to Largy Hill in Thurles Grade 3 (21f, soft) in February. Cheekpieces on first time. Likely has more to offer. Had jumping issues last time but may resume his progress with cheekpieces now applied.
3	1 3rd (1) (50/1 +0%) Bugise Seagull		50 50/1(+0%)																															(1) Bugise Seagull 50/1, Irish point recruit who won first 2 starts over hurdles. Lost his unbeaten hurdle record but actually advanced his form when 4½ lengths third of 4 to Handstands in listed race at Huntingdon (19.5, heavy) in February. Plenty of improvement needed to get seriously competitive at this level. Has shown progressive form on sharp/flat tracks over hurdles; this is a stiffer task.
4	5 4th (5) (10/3 +45%) Jimmy Du Seuil		3.333333 10/3(+45%)																															(5) Jimmy Du Seuil 10/3, Ex-French performer who landed short odds in a Clonmel maiden hurdle in January. Much improved when 13 lengths second to Ballyburn in Baring Bingham at Cheltenham (21f, heavy) since, with Ile Atlantique 3½ lengths behind in third. Likely capable of even better. Ran well at big odds in the Gallagher; possibilities, provided that form is backed up.
5th	4 5th (4) (5/2 +58%) Ile Atlantique		2.5 5/2(+58%)																															(4) Ile Atlantique 5/2, Gowran maiden winner on hurdle debut and placed in Grade 1 novices around this trip at Naas and Cheltenham since. Likely to be in the shake-up but reopposing stablemate Jimmy du Seuil was 3½ lengths ahead in second at Cheltenham. Brings Grade 1 form; one place behind stablemate Jimmy Du Seuil in the Gallagher.
6th	7 6th (7) (25/1 -56%) Mahon's Way		25 25/1(-56%)																															(7) Mahon's Way 25/1, Winning hurdle debut at Naas in November. Easily best effort at Graded level since when 6½ lengths second of 6 to Fun Fun Fun in 2m Naas Grade 3 5 weeks ago. The step back up in trip now should suit him. Held in Grade 3 events since his maiden win; difficult task on first Grade 1 attempt.
7th	3 7th (3) (22/1 +12%) Esprit Du Potier		22 22/1(+12%)																															(3) Esprit Du Potier 22/1, Dual bumper winner who has also won twice from the front over hurdles this season. Stable no stranger to novice hurdle success at this meeting but he'll require significant improvement to play a prominent role. 2-2 over 2m4f; has a lot to find on form but may improve further at this distance.
8th	6 8th (6) (80/1 -21%) Josh The Boss		80 80/1(-21%)																															(6) Josh The Boss 80/1, Won first 2 starts over hurdles (C&D second occasion) but his limitations have been exposed since. Would be a shock winner. Has won over C&D but his form is well below the required standard at this level.

The Grade 1 winner Caldwell Potter has to be of interest on his debut for these connections, following his 740,000-euros purchase, but he could be vulnerable on his first start for 108 days. With that in mind, marginal preference is for BRIGHTERDAYSAHEAD, who should relish this step back up in trip having found Golden Ace too sharp over 2m1f in the Mares' Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham last month. Jimmy Du Seuil (second) beat Ile Atlantique (third) in the Gallagher but it would be no surprise to see the latter reverse that form, while Staffordshire Knot is next best.

The step up to 2½m could see CALDWELL POTTER in an even better light and he can prove just too strong for his half-sister and former stablemate Brighterdaysahead. Baring Bingham runner-up Ile Atlantique looks best of the rest.

Big-money purchase CALDWELL POTTER clinches narrow preference in an engrossing clash with sibling Brighterdaysahead.

1	3 1st (3) (5/4 +44%) Choosethenews		1.25 5/4(+44%)																															(3) Choosethenews 5/4, Point winner who looked a useful prospect sent hurdling when making all at Ayr in December 2022. Shaped as if retaining ability in face of stiff task when behind Giovinco on return/chase debut over C&D and similar form when third at Carlisle. More to come. Good third at Carlisle on second chase start and form has worked out extremely well.
2	1 2nd (1) (8/1 +0%) Pay The Piper		8 8/1(+0%)																															(1) Pay The Piper 8/1, Useful winning chaser who has been given a chance by the handicapper after a rather quiet campaign. Not the stoutest of finishers these days though, fading over hurdles in the mud here 3 weeks ago. Continues to drop down the weights but for good reason; needs to get back on track.
3	6 3rd (6) (10/1 -11%) Cornerstone Lad		10 10/1(-11%)																															(6) Cornerstone Lad 10/1, Strike rate over fences not great and he was last of 3 at Carlisle a fortnight ago. This looks tough back up in trip. Showed some spark here in February but this regressive 10yo has failed to build on it.
4	2 4th (2) (13/2 -63%) Gardener		6.5 13/2(-63%)																															(2) Gardener 13/2, Has taken well to chasing for new trainer Olly Murphy, winning last 2 starts when completing (2m handicaps at Southwell and Carlisle). Couldn't get to the front and produced an error-strewn round of jumping at Ayr 7 weeks ago. First-time headgear, and stamina to prove up in trip. Pulled up last time but the cheekpieces could help his jumping and he retains potential.
5	5 |PU| (5) (11/4 +0%) High Moon		2.75 11/4(+0%)																															(5) High Moon 11/4, Scored in this race last year and back in top form, beaten only by a most progressive one at Ayr in first-time cheekpieces 5 weeks ago. Big shout with a repeat. Won this last year off 1lb higher and returned to form when second at Ayr last month.
4	4 |PU| (4) (12/1 -50%) Brayhill		12 12/1(-50%)																															(4) Brayhill 12/1, Low-mileage 9-y-o who, following another wind op, made light of a 12-month absence to score over C&D on return. Disappointing twice since, though. Won over C&D in December but soundly beaten here the last twice.

Choosethenews was beaten four lengths into third at Carlisle and, with Brian Hughes booked, he could get into contention off a 1lb lower rating. However, PAY THE PIPER lurks on an appealing mark as he switches back to this sphere after his well-beaten third over the smaller obstacles here. Ann Hamilton's nine-year-old should have no problem with testing conditions and he looks the way to go. High Moon showed improvement in first-time cheekpieces to finish second at Ayr and he can also go well.

CHOOSETHENEWS has more to offer over fences and is narrowly preferred to last year's winner High Moon, who returned to form in first-time cheekpieces at Ayr 5 weeks ago.

Last year's winner HIGH MOON (nap) turns up on a 1lb lower mark this time around and returned to form when second at Ayr last month.

1	2 1st (2) (6/1 +25%) Bells Of Peterboro		6 6/1(+25%)																															(2) Bells Of Peterboro 6/1, Consistent sort who boasts a good record here, winning or placed on 7 of his 10 previous starts at this course over hurdles/fences. Shouldn't be judged too harshly on latest display at Bangor and he's only 2 lb above the mark off which he scored over C&D in January. Gained his sole chase win, albeit somewhat fortuitously, over this C&D.
2	8 2nd (8) (7/2 -27%) Rouge De L'quest		3.5 7/2(-27%)																															(8) Rouge De L'quest 7/2, Winning pointer who opened his Rules account at the ninth attempt when landing a Ffos Las handicap by 13 lengths (23.8f, heavy) in this headgear combination last time. 8 lb rise fair enough and will be a danger to all if able to build on that. Took well to first-time blinkers at Ffos Las two weeks ago, scoring easily; respected.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/3 +17%) Bolsover Bill		3.333333 10/3(+17%)																															(4) Bolsover Bill 10/3, Won 4 times for Warren Greatrex last season and has continued to thrive for current yard, landing back-to-back handicaps at Exeter in January under this rider. Performed with credit despite some shoddy jumping at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) recently and a bold show is anticipated here. Jumping has been an issue the last twice; ideally needs to regain fluency.
4	7 4th (7) (9/1 -64%) Eceparti		9 9/1(-64%)																															(7) Eceparti 9/1, Notched back-to-back wins in the mud here in the autumn, latterly over this C&D. Runner-up back at this course the last twice but it was a shade disappointing that he failed to deliver in a 3-runner contest last time, particularly given that he was allowed a soft lead. Solid claims based on his Chepstow record this term; runner-up over C&D last twice.
5th	6 5th (6) (14/1 +0%) Haut Folin		14 14/1(+0%)																															(6) Haut Folin 14/1, Forged clear to land a gamble at Ffos Las on return and placed on his next 3 outings. However, form has dipped in a major way the last twice and yard saddles a stronger candidate in Eceparti. Has dropped back down the weights; revival possible off current mark.
1	1 |B| (1) (10/1 -43%) Dr Kananga		10 10/1(-43%)																															(1) Dr Kananga 10/1, Two visits here during 2021/22 campaign resulted in a second-place finish over C&D and a wide-margin success in a 26f handicap. Back to form when runner-up at Fontwell and Catterick in February but latest effort was poor and now tried in more severe headgear (visor replaces blinkers). Disappointing last time but has possibilities on his solid February form; new headgear.
3	3 |U| (3) (7/2 +22%) King Turgeon		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(3) King Turgeon 7/2, Good second on return over C&D in November and duly went one place better at Exeter later that month. Back on the right track following a series of low-key efforts when going close at Taunton (23f, soft) recently and he's one to consider. Posted a good front-running effort at Taunton last month; enters calculations.
5	5 |U| (5) (12/1 -50%) Heaven Smart		12 12/1(-50%)																															(5) Heaven Smart 12/1, The addition of blinkers and more positive tactics seemingly worked wonders at Kempton (3m, soft) where he landed a 6-runner handicap without breaking sweat. However, he was beating a retreat when unseating rider 3 out at Newbury next time and is probably too high in the weights for now. Return to Class 4 may suit; scored in this grade at Kempton two starts ago.

KING TURGEON ran a big race in second when narrowly denied by an in-form rival at Taunton last month and a 3lb rise could prove lenient as he looks to gain compensation. David Pipe's charge has run well here before and he gets the vote ahead of the capable Bolsover Bill and Rouge De L'quest, who got off the mark in excellent style at Ffos Las last month. Not outside the first two on each of his last four starts here (two wins), Eceparti cannot be ruled out either.

Granted a better round of jumping than at Market Rasen, BOLSOVER BILL could be the answer. He still appears to be on a fair mark and earns preference ahead of Rouge de L'Quest, who opened his chase account in good style at Ffos Las and may well have more to offer in this sphere. King Turgeon and Eceparti should both be on the premises, too.

In the hope that he rebounds in new headgear, preference is for DR KANANGA. Second choice is Rouge De L'Quest.

1	11 1st (11) (9/1 +0%) Cruz Control		9 9/1(+0%)																															(11) Cruz Control 9/1, Fairly useful bumper/hurdles winner who opened his account over fences at Newcastle (20f) in November. Remained in form from higher marks since and resumed winning ways back in a lesser handicap returned to Newcastle (23.4f, soft) 4 weeks ago. 6 lb higher but conditions hold no fears. Won in good style at Newcastle last month and this 7yo is open to further improvement.
2	2 2nd (2) (20/1 -43%) Sam Brown		20 20/1(-43%)																															(2) Sam Brown 20/1, Landed Veterans' Series Final at Warwick (24f) in January and resumed winning ways back in that company teaming up with this promising conditional for the first time at Ascot (23.8f, good to soft) just under 3 weeks ago. 3 lb higher and not without each-way hope. Won this in 2022 and has been running well since the visor went on; entitled to respect.
3	10 3rd (10) (13/2 +0%) Forward Plan		6.5 13/2(+0%)																															(10) Forward Plan 13/2, Progressive chaser who has bagged 3m handicaps at Doncaster and Kempton this season. Only narrowly denied in Great Yorkshire inbetween and remains of interest up another 4 lb. 1 of 3 for this yard. Progressive 8yo who stormed home to score at Kempton; strong candidate up 4lb.
4	4 4th (4) (25/1 -56%) Kinondo Kwetu		25 25/1(-56%)																															(4) Kinondo Kwetu 25/1, Most progressive over fences, making it 6 wins from 8 starts when seeing off another improver (pair well clear) over C&D last May. Denied a clear run at a crucial stage when third in the 16-runner Uttoxeter handicap (3¼m, good) in July but well held at Cheltenham 4 months later. Off since. Unraced on soft/heavy; relishes this course and could go well if the ground dries.
5th	3 5th (3) (8/1 -14%) Twig		8 8/1(-14%)																															(3) Twig 8/1, Enhanced his good strike in the Summer Cup at Uttoxeter (26f) in July and acquitted himself tremendously well after 3 months off when second of 21 in handicap at Cheltenham (25f, heavy) last month, that just about a career best. 4 lb higher but yard have already tasted success here this week. Fine 2nd in the Ultima at Cheltenham last month and may well play a leading role once more.
6th	6 6th (6) (9/2 +59%) Kilbeg King		4.5 9/2(+59%)																															(6) Kilbeg King 9/2, Useful novice hurdler at up to 3m last season and has taken well to chasing this term, backing up his improved third to Il Est Francais in Kauto Star at Kempton over Christmas when narrowly denied by Henry's Friend in the Reynoldstown at Ascot. Not so good at Cheltenham last month, however. Ran well for long way in NH Chase; could be in mix now back down in trip and back in h'cap.
7th	5 7th (5) (9/2 +0%) Crebilly		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(5) Crebilly 9/2, Progressive novice hurdler who was shaping up promisingly prior to falling on return/chase debut at Cheltenham in November. Off the mark in 3-runner Exeter novice in February and did well to get second in valuable handicap at former track (20.6f, soft) last time. One to consider upped in trip. Runner-up in Plate at Cheltenham despite lacking fluency; has potential at this new trip.
8th	9 8th (9) (7/2 +22%) The King Of Ryhope		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(9) The King Of Ryhope 7/2, Low-mileage 8-y-o who made a winning return/handicap chase debut at Chepstow in October, pulling clear with a resilient rival. Failed to see things out on his next 2 starts but back on song when fourth in Grade 2 at Ascot (23.8f, good to soft) since, going strongly before mistake last. Big chance. Travelled well until final-fence blunder in 3m Grade 2 novice at Ascot; unexposed.
9th	12 9th (12) (50/1 -127%) Now Where Or When		50 50/1(-127%)																															(12) Now Where Or When 50/1, Fairly useful chaser on balance but has beaten only one other finisher in 3 starts this season. Hard to see him featuring. His profile is patchy but a case can be made on his best form (Grade 3 third).
10th	7 10th (7) (25/1 +0%) Falco Blitz		25 25/1(+0%)																															(7) Falco Blitz 25/1, Off the mark for current yard when winning 13-runner handicap chase at Thurles in January and made light work of a 7 lb rise when following up at Limerick (22.6f, heavy) last month. 11 lb higher here though. and the likelihood is this Irish raider will find a few too strong. 10yo; rejuvenated this year, with commanding wins the last twice; firmly in calculations.
13	13 |PU| (13) (14/1 +0%) Demnat		14 14/1(+0%)																															(13) Demnat 14/1, Brother to high-class chaser Sceau Royal who reached a fairly useful level over fences in France. Made light of a 32-month absence on his yard debut when easily landing 5-runner handicap chase at Ludlow (20f, soft) in February but well held both subsequent starts. Mark eases 2 lb. Ran well for a long way in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham and this track is less demanding.
8	8 |PU| (8) (20/1 +20%) Erne River		20 20/1(+20%)																															(8) Erne River 20/1, Returned to form when landing a 6-runner handicap chase in first-time cheekpieces at Doncaster (3m) in December and backed that up with good fifth in Premier Handicap over same C&D 11 weeks ago. Place claims probably the best he can hope for. In good heart at Doncaster the last twice but likes it there; needs something extra today.
1	1 |PU| (1) (33/1 -136%) Fugitif		33 33/1(-136%)																															(1) Fugitif 33/1, Finally landed a big pot in December Gold Cup at Cheltenham and fared as well as could be expected when third in 2m Grade 1 there at the end of January. Turned in a rare poor effort at that venue up in grade in the Ryanair last time and now tries this sort of trip for the first time. Stays well over 2m4f but goes into the unknown stamina-wise and has never shone here.

Dan and Harry Skelton teamed up to land this race 12 months ago with Midnight River and they bid to repeat the dose this year with THE KING OF RYHOPE, who still held a chance when making a bad mistake at the last in the Grade 2 Reynoldstown Chase over 3m in February. Still unexposed over this sort of trip, he looks potentially well treated on his return to handicap company and is taken to reverse the form with Kilbeg King, who was ahead of the selection in second at Ascot that day but must concede 3lb to that rival now and subsequently had a hard race in the National Hunt Chase. Crebilly stayed on well for a good second in the Plate at Cheltenham and, although he went up 3lb for that, he should relish this extra yardage. Twig is 4lb higher for also filling the runner-up spot at Prestbury Park last month in the Ultima but that form gives him a big shout.

An ultra-competitive staying contest on paper in which the suggestion is THE KING OF RYHOPE, who travelled sweetly into contention before making a chance-ending blunder in an Ascot Grade 2 a couple of months ago and Dan Skelton's low-mileage 8-y-o should be bang there if translating that form back into handicap company. Forward Plan has taken his form up a notch this term, so he can provide most resistance, with Crebilly and Twig another couple fancied to feature.

The rejuvenated 10yo FALCO BLITZ has won in dominant fashion in Ireland the last twice and could still be on a good mark.

1	1 1st (1) (1/14 +46%) Beneficially Yours		0.071429 1/14(+46%)																															(1) Beneficially Yours 1/14, £80,000 purchase after winning his only start in Irish points and built on promising hurdle debut third when scoring over C&D last month. This looks an excellent opportunity for him to follow up. 1-1 in points; easily justified favouritism over C&D last month; should prove hard to beat.
2	3 2nd (3) (14/1 +13%) Charizord		14 14/1(+13%)																															(3) Charizord 14/1, Well beaten in 2 bumpers a year apart (trained by Harry Smyth in Ireland on debut) but showed ability when a well-held fourth on his Carlisle hurdle debut a fortnight ago. Little show in bumpers but some encouragement on hurdling debut at Carlisle; may do better.
3	5 3rd (5) (9/1 +0%) Something Golden		9 9/1(+0%)																															(5) Something Golden 9/1, Modest maiden hurdler for Iain Jardine. Has been pointing for new connections, winning a maiden in February but held in restricted company twice since. Unlikely he'll be seriously troubling Beneficially Yours. Modest maiden over hurdles in 2022-23; point winner since; should run some sort of race.
4	4 |PU| (4) (40/1 -60%) Nut Wood		40 40/1(-60%)																															(4) Nut Wood 40/1, Half-brother to dual bumper winner Shantewe but he didn't shape with any obvious promise on his Wetherby bumper debut last month. Weak in market and never sighted in Wetherby bumper; probably best watched on hurdle debut.
6	6 |PU| (6) (80/1 -60%) The White Rat		80 80/1(-60%)																															(6) The White Rat 80/1, Well held in a point bumper and Carlisle novice hurdle last month. Tailed off in novice hurdle at Carlisle; hard to fancy.
2	2 |PU| (2) (200/1 -100%) Beechmount		200 200/1(-100%)																															(2) Beechmount 200/1, Pulled up sole start in points and no promise in novice hurdles at Kelso and C&D over 5 months apart. Pulled up in a point and has shown little in novice hurdles; difficult to recommend.

BENEFICIALLY YOURS was found an excellent opportunity to get off the mark when scoring over C&D last month. He appeared to relish the heavy conditions on that occasion and this appears to be an even easier task on paper, despite his penalty. Something Golden shouldn't be lacking for fitness having raced in point-to-points recently, while Charizord appears best of the remainder.

This should be plain sailing for last month's C&D winner BENEFICIALLY YOURS. Charizord showed a bit on his recent hurdle debut and is preferred to Something Golden for the forecast spot.

Despite having to concede weight all round, BENEFICIALLY YOURS looks by far the likeliest winner, having scooted up over C&D last time.

1	7 1st (7) (7/1 +30%) Brulure Noire		7 7/1(+30%)																															(7) Brulure Noire 7/1, Landed Ffos Las handicap chase for second year in succession in November, produced to lead before last and asserting quickly run-in. However, he's been disappointing on his next 2 starts and is in danger of mirroring a regressive 2022/23 campaign. Below form on last couple of outings but ran well in this race last year; a possible.
2	5 2nd (5) (20/1 -233%) The Boola Boss		20 20/1(-233%)																															(5) The Boola Boss 20/1, Winner of 2 of his first 3 starts over fences, including a good-ground Worcester handicap last June. Jumping went to pot when misfiring at Market Rasen the following month, though, and opposable here back from a 9-month absence. Absent since a heavy defeat last summer; seems best over further and on good ground.
3	9 3rd (9) (4/1 +43%) Valirann Gold		4 4/1(+43%)																															(9) Valirann Gold 4/1, Resumed winning ways at Fontwell in February but has come up short on each of his 3 subsequent starts, including when beaten over 16 lengths in the C&D race won by King of Brazil. Looks vulnerable. Kept on dourly to win at Fontwell in February but not firing on all cylinders since.
4	6 4th (6) (10/1 -11%) Exmoor Forest		10 10/1(-11%)																															(6) Exmoor Forest 10/1, Winner of Warwick maiden hurdle last May and, though rather in-and-out since, his latest third in a handicap at Exeter (21.6f, heavy) was a creditable effort. 2 lb lower now switched to fences and he could have a part to play if his jumping passes the test. Took step back in right direction when placed over hurdles last month; chase debut today.
5th	2 5th (2) (80/1 -900%) Post No Bills		80 80/1(-900%)																															(2) Post No Bills 80/1, Has enjoyed a productive campaign in handicap chases, gaining third success of the season when readily making all at Plumpton (17f, good) in September. Looked rusty back from a 5-month break at Southwell and this run should be more revealing. Won three good-ground chases in early part of season; well beaten (on soft) after a break.
4	4 |B| (4) (2/1 +33%) King Of Brazil		2 2/1(+33%)																															(4) King Of Brazil 2/1, Fair hurdler/chaser who is 2-3 since undergoing a wind op, most recently landing a 5-runner C&D handicap. Probably not the easiest for the handicapper to pin down owing to his tendency to doss in front and he's the one to beat. 2-3 since his wind op in December, the latter win over C&D last month.
3	3 |B| (3) (16/1 -33%) Inedit De Mee		16 16/1(-33%)																															(3) Inedit De Mee 16/1, Showed fairly useful form when runner-up on the last 3 of his 4 starts in 2021/22 for J. Boisnard. Didn't offer a great deal on debut for this stable at Doncaster in December, though, and will need to leave that well behind now switched to fences. Placed over hurdles in France; well beaten on British debut; now switched to fences.
1	1 |F| (1) (13/2 -63%) Moonlighter		6.5 13/2(-63%)																															(1) Moonlighter 13/2, Infrequent winner nowadays and doesn't always find much when push comes to shove. On the upside, his latest success was registered over this C&D off a 9 lb higher mark last January, so it would be unwise to rule him out. Not the force of old but ran okay last month and is suited by this C&D; one to consider.
8	8 |PU| (8) (11/2 +8%) Walk In The Wild		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(8) Walk In The Wild 11/2, Made the perfect start sent chasing last season, winning his first two starts. Not been in same form this term but he has been cut plenty of slack by the handicapper and took a step back in the right direction when third at Doncaster (19f, soft) last time. Blinkers applied. Not beaten far last month but has basically become disappointing; headgear switched again.

In what looks like a very winnable contest, it can pay to side with recent C&D winner KING OF BRAZIL, who has got the hang of things since the turn of the year. A 3lb rise for that most recent success looks manageable and it may be a previous C&D winner in Moonlighter that gives him the most to think about, despite the latter having an underwhelming season to this point. Not seen since disappointing at Market Rasen last July, The Boola Boss is one to note on his return as he won two of his three starts previous to that.

KING OF BRAZIL got it together jumping-wise when scoring over C&D last month and a 3 lb rise in the weights almost certainly underestimates him. The 7-y-o gets the nod ahead of Walk In The Wild and chasing-debutant Exmoor Forest.

Front-running veteran MOONLIGHTER is well suited by this C&D and could be hard to catch off his career-low mark.

1	12 1st (12) (8/1 +20%) Strong Leader		8 8/1(+20%)																															(12) Strong Leader 8/1, Smart novice hurdler last season (won 3 times at 2m and second in the Top Novices' at this meeting). Solid effort again on first go over 3m when third in the Cleeve at Cheltenham in first-time cheekpieces 11 weeks ago, not jumping well yet seeing things out thoroughly. This is tougher. Ran well in the Cleeve on first attempt over 3m; unexposed at this trip; possibilities.
2	2 2nd (2) (15/2 +32%) Buddy One		7.5 15/2(+32%)																															(2) Buddy One 15/2, Dual handicap hurdle winner on heavy at up to 3m this season and surpassed expectations when fourth, beaten 8¼ lengths, in the Stayers' Hurdle last month. Ran well in handicap at this meeting last year. Posted a big effort (40-1 fourth) in the Stayers' Hurdle; frame possibilities.
3	8 3rd (8) (5/1 +58%) Hiddenvalley Lake		5 5/1(+58%)																															(8) Hiddenvalley Lake 5/1, Lightly-raced hurdler who was much improved as he landed a gamble in the Grade 2 Boyne (21f, heavy) at Navan 9 weeks ago, plenty to admire in how quickly he settled things. Unexposed and interesting back up in trip. Lightly raced; landed the Boyne Hurdle last time and should improve further; interesting.
4	9 4th (9) (8/1 +68%) Monkfish		8 8/1(+68%)																															(9) Monkfish 8/1, Has 2 Cheltenham Festival wins to his name but he's had very little racing in the last 3 years and couldn't build on his successful return over hurdles when pulled up in the Gold Cup (bled). Can only be watched after that. Very promising in younger days but it's not clear whether he retains full ability.
5th	6 5th (6) (3/1 +14%) Flooring Porter		3 3/1(+14%)																															(6) Flooring Porter 3/1, Won the Stayers' Hurdle in 2021 and 2022 and also twice placed behind Sire du Berlais in this. Fared best of all these when second to Teahupoo at Cheltenham last month, running right up his best, and another big effort on the cards. Good record in the Stayers' Hurdle; placed in this race for last two years; solid claims.
6th	7 6th (7) (10/1 +17%) Hewick		10 10/1(+17%)																															(7) Hewick 10/1, Career-best effort though was fortunate as he landed the King George VI Chase on Boxing Day, his rider's perseverance paying off as the race fell apart after Shishkin's stumble 2 out. Not as good over hurdles and others make more appeal for the win. Admirable chaser; won the King George last time out; hurdles form is inferior.
7th	5 7th (5) (11/1 +31%) Dashel Drasher		11 11/1(+31%)																															(5) Dashel Drasher 11/1, Tough and likeable sort who edged out the penalised Paisley Park to win Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury in December. Well held in last month's Stayers' Hurdle though and plenty on his plate again here. Good stayer on his day but was a distant sixth in this contest 12 months ago.
8th	4 8th (4) (13/2 +7%) Crambo		6.5 13/2(+7%)																															(4) Crambo 13/2, Has progressed through the ranks over hurdles and had Dashel Drasher and Champ in behind when edging out Paisley Park in Grade 1 Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot in December. Well held in the Stayers' Hurdle last month though and needs to bounce back. Disappointing in the Stayers' Hurdle but progressive otherwise; could well rebound.
1	1 |PU| (1) (18/1 -50%) Botox Has		18 18/1(-50%)																															(1) Botox Has 18/1, Second success in Grade 2s this season when bounding clear in the Rendlesham at Haydock (heavy) 8 weeks ago, jumping a lot better for once. Remains a bit below the best in this division but not a big surprise to see him go well if keeping the mistakes down. Better than ever in the Rendlesham at Haydock eight weeks ago; could go well.
3	3 |PU| (3) (20/1 +20%) Champ		20 20/1(+20%)																															(3) Champ 20/1, Very talented hurdler/chaser in his prime (won the Sefton over C&D in 2019) but comfortably held in Long Walk Hurdle and Cleeve Hurdle both starts this season. Another from out-of-form stable to swerve Cheltenham and probably best watched despite good record fresh. First-time cheekpieces. Smart in his prime but doesn't look the force of old; headgear enlisted.

FLOORING PORTER proved Gavin Cromwell's decision to revert to hurdling completely correct when only Teahupoo stopped him from winning a third Stayers' Hurdle crown at Cheltenham. The tough-as-teak nine-year-old is sure to give his all again and can exact his revenge on Sire Du Berlais, who had him back in third when proving his 33/1 Stayers' success was no fluke in this 12 months ago, but could only manage fifth at Prestbury Park this time around. Buddy One surpassed expectations in fourth there, with Crambo a disappointing ninth, although the latter has won here, as well as the Long Walk at Ascot, this campaign so must not be written off. Top-class chasers Hewick and Monkfish add an extra dimension to the race, while Hiddenvalley Lake's career over fences was aborted after a Navan fall and he bounced back to take the Boyne Hurdle.

A couple of the regulars can come to the fore again, with FLOORING PORTER taken to land this prize for the first time following a mighty effort in the Stayers' Hurdle. Sire du Berlais, seeking a third straight win in this, seems sure to go well after flying home at Cheltenham. Hiddenvalley Lake impressed when winning the Boyne 9 weeks ago and is an interesting alternative given his lightly-raced profile.

Flooring Porter and Sire Du Berlais are respected on form. HIDDENVALLEY LAKE and Strong Leader may well improve further.

1	10 1st (10) (11/4 +0%) Call Me Jack		2.75 11/4(+0%)																															(10) Call Me Jack 11/4, Improved in handicaps, winning over 2m at Southwell in February and going in again over C&D last month. A further 7 lb rise is unlikely to prevent him making another bold bid. Up 7lb for C&D win; likely to need a career best to follow up but that is not ruled out..
2	6 2nd (6) (11/2 -38%) Atomic Angel		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(6) Atomic Angel 11/2, Back to form when placed twice over 3m at Hexham last month. Another prominent showing looks assured if showing up here in similar form. Kept on for 1l second at Hexham (2m7f, heavy; first-time cheekpieces) latest; player..
3	3 3rd (3) (11/1 +39%) Adveram		11 11/1(+39%)																															(3) Adveram 11/1, Improved effort when second in 19.5f Ayr maiden hurdle in February but failed to back that up in a 3m course handicap since. Cheekpieces go on now. Placed in a 2m3f hurdle (heavy) on penultimate start; drop back in trip looks a plus..
4	8 4th (8) (7/2 +13%) Glory Hights		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(8) Glory Hights 7/2, Placed in a trio of handicap hurdles here this year, going close over this trip first occasion. Headed only in the dying strides over 3m latest and likely to be in thick of things again. Went close latest; 3lb rise not ideal but drop back to this trip shouldn't be an issue..
5th	15 5th (15) (40/1 -21%) Robin Goodfellow		40 40/1(-21%)																															(15) Robin Goodfellow 40/1, Poor maiden hurdler. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Sedgefield (2½m, heavy) 32 days ago. Handy mark based on his Sedgefield third in November but has been well below par since..
6th	12 6th (12) (9/2 +55%) Greenhill Gardens		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(12) Greenhill Gardens 9/2, No significant impact in C&D handicaps last twice. Still early days but he needs improvement. No surprise if there is better to come, especially if he can improve his jumping..
7th	4 7th (4) (18/1 -13%) Knacker Trapper		18 18/1(-13%)																															(4) Knacker Trapper 18/1, Modest in bumpers and similar standard in this sphere to date, failing to improve for the switch to handicap company when beaten a long way upped to 3m at Wetherby last time. May do better now dropped to this trip, as his previous efforts were not without promise..
8th	5 8th (5) (66/1 -371%) Time Was		66 66/1(-371%)																															(5) Time Was 66/1, Winning pointer. Down the field in a hunter chase at Downpatrick on Rules debut last spring. Seemed to show a lot more when third in Sedgefield novice hurdle for new yard in February but pulled up at Hexham since. Handicap debut. Pulled up at Hexham since third at Sedgefield (2m4f, soft); bit to prove..
9th	9 9th (9) (18/1 +28%) Fiadh		18 18/1(+28%)																															(9) Fiadh 18/1, Won over 3m at Wetherby last March but pulled up on his last 2 outings 10 months apart. Has something to prove for now. C&D winner but has a doubt over current form; pulled up in both runs this term..
11	11 |F| (11) (10/1 +50%) Star Vantage		10 10/1(+50%)																															(11) Star Vantage 10/1, Poor form, although he did travel for a long way before fading over C&D on heavy in February. Undergone wind surgery since. Worth a precautionary betting check. Placed over hurdles; much to prove after wind surgery, based on his last three starts..
14	14 |PU| (14) (28/1 -133%) Not Now Tayto		28 28/1(-133%)																															(14) Not Now Tayto 28/1, Made frame both starts in Irish points. Yet to better poor form over hurdles (remote third on 2m recent course handicap debut) but he might benefit from the longer trip this afternoon. Step up in trip looks a positive but could do with improvement in the jumping department..
1	1 |PU| (1) (33/1 +0%) Jeu Sacre		33 33/1(+0%)																															(1) Jeu Sacre 33/1, Fair form over hurdles and fences in France but well beaten in 2 hurdles for current yard. Too soon to write off but would need to see market support to consider. Well beaten in both British starts (raced freely in hood latest); plenty to prove..
13	13 |PU| (13) (33/1 +0%) Cave Hill		33 33/1(+0%)																															(13) Cave Hill 33/1, Doubtful he achieved much when third in 19.5f Ayr maiden last month and down the field in 3m course handicap last month. Placed at Ayr in February but he'll have to improve to have any realistic chance..
2	2 |PU| (2) (150/1 -650%) Clapton Hill		150 150/1(-650%)																															(2) Clapton Hill 150/1, Placed in maiden hurdles for Ben Pauling but well beaten on final start for that yard last July. Pulled up in a point last month. Can only watch here. Placed in two maiden hurdles; pulled up in a point three weeks ago; bit to prove..

CALL ME JACK arrives boasting a progressive profile having won two of his last three starts. The latest success came over C&D when improving for the step up in trip and the five-year-old is capable of taking further steps forward. Glory Hights has been consistent since beginning life in handicap company and is expected to be in the mix again. Others to note are Atomic Angel and Adveram.

ATOMIC ANGEL has bounced back to form when placed twice at Hexham lately and can resume winning ways. Call Me Jack made it 2-3 in handicaps over C&D last month and is second choice ahead of Glory Heights, who has been runner-up here 3 times this year.

The suggestion is I DOUBT THAT whose Flat stamina suggests this new trip will suit.

1	6 1st (6) (3/1 +14%) Pipers Cross		3 3/1(+14%)																															(6) Pipers Cross 3/1, Stayed on well to open her hurdles account in handicap at Huntingdon (25f, heavy) in March and backed it up with a creditable second at Stratford last time. Another bold showing looks assured. Upped in grade but her consistency is an asset; record of 22213 for current yard.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/4 +10%) Lady Balko		2.25 9/4(+10%)																															(1) Lady Balko 9/4, Improved since handicapping and completed a quick-fire hat-trick in ready style at Taunton in March. Another likeable display when second at this course last time and step back up trip should suit. Worth a chance to resume winning ways. Clear second over 2m3f here last month when bidding for four-timer; unbeaten at 3m.
3	3 3rd (3) (15/2 -67%) Melusine De Pail		7.5 15/2(-67%)																															(3) Melusine De Pail 15/2, Point winner who has shaped encouragingly when placed on each of her three hurdling outings. Handicapper hasn't gone overboard with opening mark and longer trip could help, so one to consider. Placed in all hurdles starts and the form has substance; interesting handicap debutante.
4	2 4th (2) (6/1 +40%) Tequila Blaze		6 6/1(+40%)																															(2) Tequila Blaze 6/1, Fair handicap hurdler who stepped up markedly on her reappearance run to capitalise on a falling mark at Southwell (24.3f, soft) in February. Creditable effort but seemed undone by a rise when fifth at Wincanton next time. Won well at Southwell but held off this mark since; takes on some unexposed types.
4	7 4th (7) (6/1 +8%) Houston Calling		6 6/1(+8%)																															(7) Houston Calling 6/1, 17/2, left previous efforts behind when second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (22f, heavy) 33 days ago. Still relatively unexposed and could do better still, so worthy of consideration. Had wind surgery prior to good second at Stratford; may build on that effort.
6th	5 6th (5) (15/2 -15%) Cast's Tasha		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(5) Cast's Tasha 15/2, Began the campaign in fine form over hurdles and value for extra when landing cramped odds on chase debut at Ffos Las in February. Tame display at Exeter next time but not fully dismissed back over hurdles. Reverts to hurdles from fences; has stamina to prove at this distance.
7th	8 7th (8) (22/1 +56%) Elfride		22 22/1(+56%)																															(8) Elfride 22/1, Improved to win a 23f Uttoxeter handicap last spring but it's all been rather inauspicious since and she's set for another struggle from out of the weights. Poor record since her win last May; well out of the weights.

With three wins and two second-placed efforts from six starts since early January, Lady Balko has undoubtedly held her form well and commands respect, despite now finding herself on a 30lb higher mark than since the turn of the year. However, she may be vulnerable off her current perch and she is taken on with TEQUILA BLAZE, who can get competitive off a handy rating. With trip and ground to suit, Fergal O'Brien's wily 10-year-old tends to go well for Tom Broughton, whose 5lb claim is a further boost for the selection. Molto Bene completes the shortlist.

LADY BALKO boasts a highly progressive profile and is worth a chance to get back to winning ways having posted another good effort over a shorter trip at this course last time. Pipers Cross is another likeable mare with solid claims and Melusine de Pail is an interesting handicap debutante.

Handicap debutante MELUSINE DE PAIL (nap) holds very solid claims, with her form stacking up well. Lady Balko is feared most.

1	3 1st (3) (8/1 +43%) Glencalvie		8 8/1(+43%)																															(3) Glencalvie 8/1, Successful at Chelmsford City in February but below form on her last 2 starts, sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 20/1) 2 weeks ago. Needs to get back on track. Respectable C&D form in the autumn; Polytrack winner in February but off the boil of late.
2	8 2nd (8) (9/2 +18%) Alibaba		4.5 9/2(+18%)																															(8) Alibaba 9/2, C&D winner. In first-time hood, stepped up on recent run when sixth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 10/3) 64 days ago, despite having been very slowly away. Capable of getting involved from his easing mark. C&D winner in 2020; well treated on best turf form last summer; headgear discarded.
3	6 3rd (6) (4/1 +27%) Handel		4 4/1(+27%)																															(6) Handel 4/1, Sole victory came at this C&D last summer. Not discredited when 2½ lengths sixth of 10 to Warrior Square in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 9/1) 23 days ago. One to consider back below his winning mark with blinkers applied. C&D winner last July; fair AW runs of late and might prefer turf; headgear refitted.
4	4 4th (4) (16/1 +36%) Katstar		16 16/1(+36%)																															(4) Katstar 16/1, Modest form in minor events/maiden, before running no sort of race when last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 28/1) 67 days ago. Blinkers now reached for as he makes his first start on turf. Dropped right out on handicap debut over 7f on Tapeta; headgear on now switched to turf.
5th	2 5th (2) (8/1 -60%) Deed Pole		8 8/1(-60%)																															(2) Deed Pole 8/1, Opened his account at Lingfield in December and quickly left behind a below-par run when 2¾ lengths fourth of 7 to Glencalvie in handicap (4/1) at Chelmsford City (8f) 72 days ago. Can make his presence felt. AW winner in December; ran well in C&D race on soft last spring; worth considering.
6th	5 6th (5) (4/1 +47%) Fougere		4 4/1(+47%)																															(5) Fougere 4/1, Placed twice at around 10f last season, but unsuited by the drop back in trip when fifth of 14 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft, 13/2) on her final outing of the campaign. Makes her reappearance after 6 months off. 0-9 and lacks a recent run but two close calls over 1m2f on turf in 2023, including C&D.
7th	1 7th (1) (28/1 -40%) Maruna		28 28/1(-40%)																															(1) Maruna 28/1, Winner at Newcastle on her second start last year. However, lesser efforts both outings this season, in first-time cheekpieces when last of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 22/1) 56 days ago. Makes turf debut. Won 1m novice on Tapeta in November; well held in AW handicaps of late; turf debut.
8th	7 8th (7) (8/1 +27%) Portoro		8 8/1(+27%)																															(7) Portoro 8/1, With hood reapplied, never involved when sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 12/1) 3 weeks ago, hanging badly right inside final 1f. Others more persuasive. Well treated on turf form at 1m2f and 1m3f last summer; needs to be suited by return to 1m.
9th	11 9th (11) (22/1 -83%) Eljaytee		22 22/1(-83%)																															(11) Eljaytee 22/1, Only win came at this course on last season's return. In-and-out form for the remainder of the campaign, one of his lesser races when eighth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 9/1) in October. Capable if on a going day. Made a winning return over 1m2f on soft here in 2023; trip/ground query this time.
10th	10 10th (10) (8/1 -33%) Premiership		8 8/1(-33%)																															(10) Premiership 8/1, Three wins from 6 runs last year, including at this C&D. Failed to come on for his reappearance when seventh of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 40/1) 3 weeks ago, but he's not discounted from his current mark. Minor AW form of late but won 3 of his last 4 starts over 1m on turf, including over C&D.
11th	13 11th (13) (80/1 -60%) Streetstorm		80 80/1(-60%)																															(13) Streetstorm 80/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Again finished down the field when eleventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (11f, 200/1) 38 days ago. Drop back in trip not enough to tempt. Effective at 1m2f/1m on Polytrack but has not finished near the leaders in recent starts.
12th	12 12th (12) (28/1 -100%) Fast Flo		28 28/1(-100%)																															(12) Fast Flo 28/1, Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs. Again ran creditably when fifth of 10 in handicap (15/2) at Chelmsford City (7f) when last seen in November. Visor back on for her reappearance. Maiden who lacks a recent run and likely to find stronger stayers back over 1m.

After two 7f successes on the all-weather, Warrior Square is an obvious starting point and enters calculations now he is more accomplished since the last time he was tried on turf. However, with previous C&D experience, DEED POLE could be the way to go. The four-year-old is better than he mustered when fourth behind Glencalvie at Chelmsford and given today's rider knows that rival well, it would comes as no surprise to see the form reversed now they meet on grass.

The opener can go the way of WARRIOR SQUARE, who showed a good attitude when scoring at Southwell last month and is taken to land the hat-trick with the return to this longer trip likely to suit. He is preferred to Handel, who is now 1 lb below the mark he won off here last summer, with Deed Pole completing the shortlist.

Deed Pole had useful C&D form last spring but PREMIERSHIP has a good record in 1m turf handicaps and the return to grass will suit.

1	5 1st (5) (7/1 +0%) I Am Maximus		7 7/1(+0%)																															(5) I Am Maximus 7/1, 8-y-o who displayed deep reserves of stamina when taking last season's Irish National. Took his form up a notch in landing 2 of his 4 starts this time round, well on top when seeing off Vanillier in the Bobbyjo in February. Jumping does temper enthusiasm to a degree but he possesses the class. Won the 2023 Irish National (3m5f, soft) having been among the backmarkers for a long way.
2	11 2nd (11) (28/1 -12%) Delta Work		28 28/1(-12%)																															(11) Delta Work 28/1, Did well to finish third here 2 years ago, and having landed his second consecutive Cross Country Chase at Cheltenham, he unseated back here 12 months ago. Should be sharper for a spin in Grade 2 Hurdle at Navan in February and no surprise to see a good showing with first-time blinkers enlisted. Won the big Cheltenham cross-country in 2022 and 2023; a tired, 22l 3rd in 2022 National.
3	6 3rd (6) (28/1 -40%) Minella Indo		28 28/1(-40%)																															(6) Minella Indo 28/1, 2021 Gold Cup hero who was well prepared back from 7 months off to land Grade 3 at Punchestown in October. Similar form when fourth behind Latenightpass in Cross Country Chase at Cheltenham in December but suspicion this 11-y-o will find a few too good. 2021 Cheltenham Gold Cup winner who has always shaped as if stamina is a strong suit.
4	13 4th (13) (40/1 +0%) Galvin		40 40/1(+0%)																															(13) Galvin 40/1, Very smart chaser with a very good record at Cheltenham, runner-up behind stablemate Delta Work in last season's Cross Country Chase. Efforts this winter suggest he retains plenty of ability but worth noting he unseated at the first in this race 12 months ago. Second in Cheltenham cross-country last March; first-fence unseat in this race last April.
5th	34 5th (34) (12/1 +14%) Kitty's Light		12 12/1(+14%)																															(34) Kitty's Light 12/1, Signed off last season by landing an exceptional hat-trick, winning the Eider Chase, Scottish National and bet365 Gold Cup. Has seemingly been brought along with spring targets in mind again, and whilst underfoot conditions may not be ideal, he'd be the most heart-warming of winners. Respected. Soft or heavy ground poses a question but he'll be suited by every yard if back to form.
6th	16 6th (16) (40/1 +39%) Ain't That A Shame		40 40/1(+39%)																															(16) Ain't That A Shame 40/1, Hurdles/chase winner who seemingly failed for stamina when midfield in last year's renewal. Never figured first 2 starts initially this season but firmly back on track when taking 18-runner Thyestes Chase (25f, heavy) in January. Previous comments concerning this trip remain a concern. Won the Thyestes at Gowran Park (3m1f, heavy) in January; weakened badly in this last year.
7th	26 7th (26) (11/1 +8%) Meetingofthewaters		11 11/1(+8%)																															(26) Meetingofthewaters 11/1, Well-served by increase in stamina when landing 27-runner Leopardstown handicap (24.4f) over Christmas and quickly over his unfortunate mishap there in February when a cracking third in last month's Ultima Handicap at Cheltenham. Further progress likely for top stable and one for the shortlist. Smooth win in major Irish handicap (3m, soft); hooded 3rd at Cheltenham but didn't settle.
8th	30 8th (30) (28/1 +15%) Galia Des Liteaux		28 28/1(+15%)																															(30) Galia Des Liteaux 28/1, Low-mileage mare whose 3 chase victories have come in small fields but showed another dimension to her game when second in Classic Chase at Warwick (29.2f, soft) in January. Not at her best at Exeter since but she remains with untapped potential over marathon trips and yard enjoying a fine season. Staying-on second of 14 in the 3m5f Classic Chase at Warwick (heavy) but a flop last time.
9th	28 9th (28) (66/1 +0%) Roi Mage		66 66/1(+0%)																															(28) Roi Mage 66/1, Veteran who made good fist of things having first crack at these fences when seventh 12 months ago. Enhanced his good record at Compiegne in November and produced another solid effort when second at Down Royal latest but have to go back 20 years for last 12-y-o winner of this race. Bold show last year (7th); now 2lb lower, softer ground and seemingly a better preparation.
18	18 |U| (18) (10/1 +29%) Mr Incredible		10 10/1(+29%)																															(18) Mr Incredible 10/1, Has looked quirky but no doubting his ability, placed in Classic Chase/Kim Muir and still firmly in the mix when unseating his rider soon after Canal Turn second time round 12 months ago. Returned with a solid second under big weight in Midlands National last month and not underestimated. Saddle slipped when running big race in this last year; off until recent 2nd (4m2f, heavy).
7	7 |U| (7) (15/2 -36%) Corach Rambler		7.5 15/2(-36%)																															(7) Corach Rambler 15/2, High-class chaser who emulated his stablemate One For Arthur when running out a most impressive winner of this race 12 months ago (Vanillier second). Repeat bid looks to have been his target since and well in at the weights following his cracking third in last month's Gold Cup. Lots to like. 13lb higher than for impressive win in this last year but still well in after Gold Cup 3rd.
10	10 |U| (10) (18/1 -13%) Mahler Mission		18 18/1(-13%)																															(10) Mahler Mission 18/1, Improved model switched to chasing, having his rivals on the stretch when departing 2 out in last season's NH Chase at Cheltenham. Proved much sharper for his return when a fine second in Coral Gold Cup in December, travelling/jumping well. Connections keen to keep him fresh for this. Big player. 2nd in big 3m2f race at Newbury in November; second-season chaser who can improve again.
29	29 |U| (29) (100/1 -52%) Glengouly		100 100/1(-52%)																															(29) Glengouly 100/1, Lightly-raced front runner who cemented positive start to the season when a solid second behind Ain't That A Shame in Thyestes Chase (25f, heavy) at Gowran in January. Took strong hold and ultimately well held in Plate Handicap at Cheltenham since and he'll need to settle better up markedly in trip. Folded at Cheltenham (2m4f) latest but second in the 3m1f Thyestes (heavy) time before.
10th	25 10th (25) (7/1 +72%) Limerick Lace		7 7/1(+72%)																															(25) Limerick Lace 7/1, Smart mare who is enjoying a cracking season, winning 3 times either side of her second in the Troytown (behind Coko Beach), including Grade 2 Mares' Chase at the Festival last month. Interesting she's the choice of Mark Walsh and looking to be first mare since Nickel Coin in 1951 to take this. Won three of her last four starts and second of 20 to Coko Beach in 3m Troytown at Navan.
11th	3 11th (3) (28/1 +30%) Coko Beach		28 28/1(+30%)																															(3) Coko Beach 28/1, Likeable grey who has looked better than ever this campaign, landing the Troytown before a good second in the Becher here. Took well to Cross Country when going in again at Punchestown (24.6f) in February but worth noting he's not got home in the last 2 renewals of this race from lower marks. Career-best form this term; disputed lead long way last two Nationals but weakened badly.
12th	20 12th (20) (50/1 -25%) Latenightpass		50 50/1(-25%)																															(20) Latenightpass 50/1, Multiple point winner who is well proven over the National fences, landing the 2022 Foxhunters, and he added to his haul in Cross Country discipline for Dan Skelton at Cheltenham in December. Latest spin over hurdles should have blown cobwebs away and interesting runner re-united with former stable. 2nd, 1st and 4th in Foxhunters' over these fences; 2nd and 1st in 3m5f x-country this term.
13th	27 13th (27) (50/1 +24%) The Goffer		50 50/1(+24%)																															(27) The Goffer 50/1, Lightly raced this term and shaped better than distance beaten suggests when fifth of 21 in Ultima Handicap at the Festival 32 days ago. Possible he'll be sharper with that under his belt and he appeals as being on a workable mark for all this rates a sterner assignment. Fourth at Cheltenham (3m1f) and Sandown (3m4f) last spring; underperforming this term.
14th	17 14th (17) (14/1 -40%) Vanillier		14 14/1(-40%)																															(17) Vanillier 14/1, Albert Bartlett winner in 2021 who ran a cracker from a long way back when a strong-finishing second to Corach Rambler 12 months ago. 9 lb better off with his old rival here and teed himself up for another crack with a good second behind I Am Maximus in the Bobbyjo in February. On the shortlist. Strong-finishing 2nd in this last year; big shout if he can prove effective in the mud.
15th	32 15th (32) (100/1 +0%) Eklat De Rire		100 100/1(+0%)																															(32) Eklat De Rire 100/1, Lightly raced since unseating in Brown Advisory at Cheltenham 3 years ago but stepped up on return when runner-up in 4-runner chase at Fairyhouse (3m) in February. Better than being pulled up suggests back at Cheltenham latest but others make much more appeal. Second in a four-runner race this February was the only ray of sunshine in recent years.
16th	4 16th (4) (28/1 +30%) Capodanno		28 28/1(+30%)																															(4) Capodanno 28/1, High-class chaser who got back to winning ways when landing Grade 2 Cotswold Chase (25.2f) at Cheltenham in January and similar form despite shaping as if the drop in trip was against him when fourth in the Ryanair last month. However, seemingly failed for stamina in this 12 months ago. Folded turning for home in this race last season and was pulled up; in good form this year.
17th	31 17th (31) (11/1 +21%) Panda Boy		11 11/1(+21%)																															(31) Panda Boy 11/1, Smart chaser who finished fifth in last season's Irish National and big effort when staying-on second behind Meetingofthewaters at Leopardstown (24.4f, heavy) in December. Solid fourth over hurdles in February and this sort of test looks tailor-made for him. Yard won this with Numbersixvalverde. Fifth in the 2023 Irish National; excellent late work over 3m on last two outings.
18th	2 18th (2) (50/1 -150%) Nassalam		50 50/1(-150%)																															(2) Nassalam 50/1, Caught the eye when fourth in Grand Sefton here in November and took form up a notch in blinkers, emphatically winning Welsh National over Christmas. Hit hard by the assessor as a result and whilst he's best excused his Gold Cup run, this rates no easy task under a big weight. Won the Welsh National (3m6f, heavy) in tremendous style; has a 16lb higher mark today.
19th	1 19th (1) (12/1 +40%) Noble Yeats		12 12/1(+40%)																															(1) Noble Yeats 12/1, Top-class chaser who became first 7-y-o since 1940 to win this race 2 years ago and typically displayed bags of stamina when fourth from 19 lb higher mark 12 months ago. Campaigned over hurdles more recently, winning the Cleeve before midfield in Stayers' Hurdle last month. Each-way claims again. 1st and 4th in the last two runnings of this; has had a hurdling preparation this season.
20th	15 20th (15) (66/1 +34%) Eldorado Allen		66 66/1(+34%)																															(15) Eldorado Allen 66/1, Grey who remains capable of smart form on his day over fences, proving as much when fourth in Coral Gold Cup at Newbury in December. Well beaten having rare start over hurdles at Plumpton in January and pulled up in Ultima at Cheltenham since. Others preferred Began this campaign in respectable fashion but last two outings were poor; stays 3m2f.
21st	22 21st (22) (33/1 +34%) Adamantly Chosen		33 33/1(+34%)																															(22) Adamantly Chosen 33/1, 7-y-o who made most of a good opportunity when resuming winning ways in 5-runner Down Royal chase (26.2f) last month. Stamina not fully tested at the trip on that occasion and definite reservations as to whether he wants this far. Others preferred. Much more interesting after winning so well in 3m2f conditions event at Down Royal (soft).
12	12 |PU| (12) (33/1 +50%) Foxy Jacks		33 33/1(+50%)																															(12) Foxy Jacks 33/1, Hit the ground running during second half of last year, landing Midlands National at Kilbeggan, and jumped better than often the case when seeing off Latenightpass in Cross Country contest at Cheltenham in December. Good fourth over hurdles since but needs to keep the errors to a minimum here. Won a Cheltenham cross-country race (3m5f) in November but now has 8lb higher mark.
9	9 |PU| (9) (40/1 +20%) Stattler		40 40/1(+20%)																															(9) Stattler 40/1, Quickly developed into a high-class novice over fences, running out a ready winner of the NH Chase 2 seasons ago. Rather underwhelming efforts this campaign though and didn't really warm to his task when distant fourth over Cross Country fences at Punchestown in February. Easily won the 3m6f NH Chase at 2022 Cheltenham Festival on his only go at a marathon trip.
24	24 |PU| (24) (50/1 +0%) Chemical Energy		50 50/1(+0%)																															(24) Chemical Energy 50/1, Easy winner of first 2 starts over fences and career-best effort when runner-up in NH Chase at the Festival last term, reeled in late on by Gaillard du Mesnil. Didn't get home in Irish National thereafter and absent since finishing midfield in Kerry equivalent last summer. This may just stretch him. 2nd in the 3m6f NH Chase (soft) last March; problems both starts since, including jumping.
23	23 |PU| (23) (80/1 +20%) Mac Tottie		80 80/1(+20%)																															(23) Mac Tottie 80/1, Won 2 races over the National fences during 2021/22 campaign and notched another success on belated return here (Mildmay Course) on Boxing Day. Below best over hurdles/fences since and stamina to prove upped markedly in trip operating from this career-high mark. Dual 2m5f winner over these fences in 2021-2022 but has a big question over his stamina.
14	14 |PU| (14) (100/1 -25%) Farouk D'alene		100 100/1(-25%)																															(14) Farouk D'alene 100/1, Gordon Elliott-trained 9-y-o who was twice successful over fences as a novice, latterly a Grade 2 in early 2022. Hasn't convinced with his jumping in this sphere since however and didn't mark himself down as a leading candidate for this race when pulled up in last month's Pertemps at Cheltenham. Smart novice chaser two seasons back; 613 days off before this term; 2nd in a hurdle race.
21	21 |PU| (21) (125/1 -56%) Minella Crooner		125 125/1(-56%)																															(21) Minella Crooner 125/1, Useful chaser who made a winning return in 4-runner listed chase at Wexford and similar form when third in Tramore Grade 3 on New Year's Day. Struggled since though, well held in Ultima Handicap latest and far from certain to relish this test (well-beaten both starts beyond 3m). Pulled up both attempts at about 3m6f; backward steps last two starts, so stacks to prove.
8	8 |PU| (8) (125/1 -25%) Janidil		125 125/1(-25%)																															(8) Janidil 125/1, Willie Mullins trained 10-y-o who won Grade 2 Red Mills Chase at Gowran last season. Lightly raced and largely underwhelming efforts have followed, including when well beaten in last month's Stayers' Hurdle at the Festival. Stamina has to be a major doubt returned to chasing. Third in the 2022 Irish Gold Cup over 3m but seen more often at 2m4f; below form lately.

Last year's winner Corach Rambler returns to defend his crown after producing a terrific effort to place in the Gold Cup. Officially 3lb well-in, the main concern for his defence would be the combination of a 13lb rise and conditions being more testing than ideal. Irish National winner I Am Maximus and Ultima third Meetingofthewaters head a strong team for Willie Mullins and JP McManus. The former has since won a Grade 1 novice back at Fairyhouse and warmed up with a convincing victory over Vanillier in the Bobbyjo. That being said, while Aintree can bring out the best in quirkier types, it remains to be seen how he handles this experience and his stablemate, winner of the Paddy Power at Leopardstown over Christmas, may prove best of the Mullins contingent. However, it is another McManus contender who has plenty going for her in the shape of LIMERICK LACE. Attempting to become the first mare since Nickel Coin in 1951 to win the race, she arrives having enjoyed a terrific season with confidence sky-high after landing the Mares' Chase at the Cheltenham Festival. She qualified to run here when runner-up in the Troytown and it seems significant that her full-brother Inothewayurthinkin improved plenty for stepping up in trip when taking the Kim Muir. Others likely to be popular on the day include Mr Incredible, who appeared unlucky when unseating at the Canal Turn last year, 2022 winner Noble Yeats and Delta Work.

Claims can be made for plenty in a cracking renewal including low-mileage 8-y-o MAHLER MISSION. Kept fresh since a fine second in the Coral Gold Cup, the way he jumped/travelled that day marked him down as one who will be well served by the demands of this race. Vanillier, second last year, and the improving Meetingofthewaters head the dangers along with last year's hero Corach Rambler who bids to emulate the greats Tiger Roll and Red Rum. Panda Boy and Delta Work complete the shortlist.

The vote goes to MAHLER MISSION (nap) ahead of Vanillier, Roi Mage and Mr Incredible.

Adrian Murray and AMO Racing have made a great start to the season with a number of big-race wins and also landed the opening juvenile maiden of the campaign at the Curragh. Charanda made a bright start when runner-up here last month, but riding arrangements suggest CALIFORNIA DREAMER is the stable selected. The half-brother to four winners cost 130,000gns as a yearling. Cradle Of Love is by Kodiac out of a Sea The Stars mare who has already produced three juvenile winners, while Usdi Atohi is a sister to Asean, who won the Listed Curragh Stakes for Donnacha O'Brien over this trip last year.

A field of mostly newcomers, and CRADLE OF LOVE is preferred to Usdi Atohi aqnd California Dreamer before market clues.

Joseph O'Brien has his team in good order and his CRADLE OF LOVE, a Kodiac half-sister to several speedy 2yos gets a tentative vote

1	9 1st (9) (11/1 -69%) Morawig		11 11/1(-69%)																															(9) Morawig 11/1, Progressed from his first outing when fourth of 10 in maiden at Kempton (8f, 14/1) in November, never nearer having run green. Has potential for better still to come this year (has been gelded) upped to 10f. Gelded after second 2yo start; should stay and has the form (AW) for an each-way chance.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 -60%) Inner Peace		4 4/1(-60%)																															(6) Inner Peace 4/1, 550,000 gns yearling, Dubawi colt. Brother to 11f winner Fifth Harmonic. Dam French/German 7f-8.5f (German Group 3, and including at 2 yrs) winner. Noteworthy newcomer for his leading connections. 550,000gns yearling, by Dubawi; late foal; newcomer to note from a top yard.
3	5 3rd (5) (8/11 +51%) Fighter Command		0.727273 8/11(+51%)																															(5) Fighter Command 8/11, Produced a promising first effort when second of 10 in minor event at Kempton (8f, 10/3) in December, quickening well to lead before caught close home. Not taken lightly with improvement to come. 2nd of ten in novice at Kempton (1m, AW) in December; lots to like on form and potential.
4	1 4th (1) (28/1 -211%) Al Ameed		28 28/1(-211%)																															(1) Al Ameed 28/1, €110,000 yearling, Kodiac gelding. Dam, French 1m winner, half-sister to very smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Tiggy Wiggy (by Kodiac). Yard capable of readying a newcomer. 110,000euros yearling, by Kodiac; dam French 1m winner (RPR 79); needs market check.
5th	4 5th (4) (14/1 +0%) Eben Zaabeel		14 14/1(+0%)																															(4) Eben Zaabeel 14/1, Bred more for stamina and looked in need of the experience when thirteenth of 17 in maiden at Newmarket (8f, good to firm, 18/1) on debut. Could fare better over this longer distance after 6 months off. 18-1, faded to be 13th of 17 in maiden at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) in September.
6th	3 6th (3) (100/1 -52%) East India Dock		100 100/1(-52%)																															(3) East India Dock 100/1, Finished well held both starts at 2yrs, last of 10 in maiden at Kempton (8f, 40/1) in November. Needs to leave his previous form well behind upped in trip after 5 months off (has been gelded). 33-1 and 40-1 when behind at Newmarket (1m, soft) and Kempton (1m, AW) last autumn; gelded.
7th	2 7th (2) (18/1 -140%) Contacto		18 18/1(-140%)																															(2) Contacto 18/1, Took a step forward from his first outing when third of 6 in maiden (10/3) at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) in October. Bred to be suited by this longer trip so he should have even more to offer this year. Third of six at Nottingham (1m, heavy) in October and open to further improvement.
8th	11 8th (11) (125/1 -89%) Jalea's Quest		125 125/1(-89%)																															(11) Jalea's Quest 125/1, 17,000 gns foal, Ulysses filly. Closely related to very smart 9f-1¾m winner Nagano Gold and half-sister to 3 winners, including smart 1¼m/11f winner Jamr. Dam unraced. Has a fairly useful standard to aim at on debut.

9th	8 9th (8) (6/1 +20%) Love Warrior		6 6/1(+20%)																															(8) Love Warrior 6/1, Showed promise when runner-up at York on debut, but still looked green when fifth of 8 in maiden at Lingfield (8f, AW, 3/1) next time. Remains capable of better after 5 months off with this longer trip likely to suit. Made most when second at York (1m, soft); AW run three weeks later did not live up to that.
10th	7 10th (7) (150/1 -127%) Leon Trotsky		150 150/1(-127%)																															(7) Leon Trotsky 150/1, Michigan gelding.

Inner Peace, a 550,000gns yearling, is not overburdened for his racecourse debut and, bred to be effective at the trip, the Godolphin-owned colt is high on the shortlist. Similar comments apply to Al Ameed, who also warrants a betting check. However, FIGHTER COMMAND was a noted eyecatcher when runner-up on his introduction at Kempton in December and with that form boosted by the third winning since, the Gosdens' son of Dubawi rates the one to be with.

FIGHTER COMMAND shaped well on his first start and could be the one to side with, with newcomer Inner Peace one to note. Love Warrior has place claims.

Four of these have already shown plenty of ability and FIGHTER COMMAND's Kempton second earns him the vote.

1	2 1st (2) (7/2 -17%) Six One Nine		3.5 7/2(-17%)																															(2) Six One Nine 7/2, Enhanced his good record here by winning back-to-back 16.3f handicaps during the winter. Came up short in his hat-trick bid at Sedgefield last month but wasn't disgraced by any means and shouldn't be far away if his stamina holds out now back up in trip. Below par at Sedgefield last time but won two in a row here previously, albeit at 2m.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/2 -35%) Poetry Man		4.5 9/2(-35%)																															(3) Poetry Man 9/2, Runner-up completed start in Irish points and best effort over hurdles when fourth in a course novice (16.9f, heavy) in January. Has looked a hard ride on all 3 starts since switched to this sphere, though, and he looks vulnerable. 3rd over 2m7f here latest & this lightly raced 6yo could benefit from today's shorter trip.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/1 -33%) Nights In Venice		4 4/1(-33%)																															(1) Nights In Venice 4/1, Fair handicap hurdler built on an encouraging chase bow when getting off the mark in a 6-runner handicap at Ayr (20.5f, heavy) in February. The stiff finish was his undoing at Hexham next time and it would be no surprise were he to deliver a bold show here. Disappointing at Hexham but had previously made a positive start to his chasing career.
4	4 4th (4) (11/2 -83%) Rollerruler		5.5 11/2(-83%)																															(4) Rollerruler 11/2, No show back from a 2-year absence here in February but subsequently stepped up on that when third in a 5-runner handicap at Hexham. Down another 1 lb and this 10-y-o is certainly one to consider. Encouraging third at Hexham last month; if reproducing that promise he should be involved.
5th	5 5th (5) (2/1 +67%) Poetria		2 2/1(+67%)																															(5) Poetria 2/1, Modest form at best over hurdles (0-11 in that sphere) and will need to improve for the switch to fences if she's to make a winning chase debut. 0-13; needs to improve upon recent hurdle form; only six, and check betting on chase debut.

SIX ONE NINE failed to fire at Sedgefield a month ago, but the nine-year-old can be given another chance based on his two victories over an extended 2m here prior to that defeat. Rollerruler showed more when stepped up to this trip at Hexham last time and he could prove to be the main threat to the selection, ahead of Poetry Man and Nights In Venice.

NIGHTS IN VENICE simply didn't get home faced with the stiff finish at Hexham on his latest start and he is appealing off a mark just 2 lb above that off which he was successful at Ayr in February. Rollerruler has been given a chance by the handicapper and, with a stamina question mark hanging over Six One Nine, he is feared most.

Preference is for POETRY MAN, who showed promise in these cheekpieces here recently. Six One Nine is a danger if staying the trip.

One to note on handicap debut. Made the frame in her last two qualifying races and can improve again in handicaps.
2	3 2nd (3) (15/2 +38%) Shuil Ceoil		7.5 15/2(+38%)																															(3) Shuil Ceoil 15/2, Confirmed earlier promise when winning 15-runner handicap at Exeter (21f, heavy) in December. Poor run at Warwick last month and needs more now fitted with hood. Dug deep to prevail at Exeter in December but has suffered a dip in form lately.
3	1 3rd (1) (15/2 -50%) Fresh Speculation		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(1) Fresh Speculation 15/2, Well backed and ran his best race sent handicapping over this sort of trip at Hereford 8 weeks ago, the extra distance probably in his favour given the way he shaped, keeping on for third. Suspect he has races in him. Placed on handicap debut at Hereford in February; useful 5lb claimer booked today.
4	7 4th (7) (18/1 +10%) Getuptheyard		18 18/1(+10%)																															(7) Getuptheyard 18/1, Not disgraced on handicap debut at Taunton (19f) in February but well held there next time. Something to find. Very respectable fourth on handicap debut; ran in snatches when below that form last time.
5th	6 5th (6) (10/1 +29%) River Voyage		10 10/1(+29%)																															(6) River Voyage 10/1, Winning Irish pointer and best run over hurdles when third of 6 in novice at Chepstow (3m, heavy) last month. Potential improver in handicaps. Struggled on first two hurdling starts but last month's run here was much more encouraging.
6th	14 6th (14) (11/1 +31%) Just Aidan		11 11/1(+31%)																															(14) Just Aidan 11/1, Hinted at ability in 3 quick runs over hurdles initially and chased home 2 plainly a long way ahead of their marks on handicap debut at Wincanton recently. One to note down 3 lb. Beaten about 29l when third of 11 on handicap debut but travelled well for a long way.
7th	9 7th (9) (9/2 +44%) Express Surprise		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(9) Express Surprise 9/2, Modest form both completed starts over hurdles, shaped as if needing stiffer test in decent race at Ludlow (2m) latest. Worth a look now handicapping up in trip. Has shown promise in 2m novice hurdles and today's step up in trip ought to suit.
8th	15 8th (15) (50/1 -100%) Citizen Jane		50 50/1(-100%)																															(15) Citizen Jane 50/1, Point scorer but winless over hurdles and down the field in handicaps for new yard. Soundly beaten all three starts for new yard this year; of interest only if market speaks.
9th	8 9th (8) (28/1 -12%) Inebranlable		28 28/1(-12%)																															(8) Inebranlable 28/1, Disappointing again on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) 11 weeks ago but still unexposed and return to longer trip might suit. Well beaten on handicap debut in January; moves back up from 2m here; improvement needed.
10th	4 10th (4) (7/1 +50%) J'habite En France		7 7/1(+50%)																															(4) J'habite En France 7/1, Shaped better than the bare result making handicap debut at Warwick (21f, heavy) after wind op last month, fitness tested to the very full under the conditions after 13 weeks off. Down 3 lb and one to consider. Ran well for a long way when fourth of 13 on handicap debut at Warwick; could have a say.
11th	10 11th (10) (11/4 +31%) Goguenard		2.75 11/4(+31%)																															(10) Goguenard 11/4, Has upped his game since switched to handicaps over hurdles, battling well to make it back-to-back wins at Catterick (19.3f, soft) in February and going in again at Stratford last month. No surprise to see him go well again up 6 lb. Improving 8yo who is 3-4 since switched to handicaps; likely to give this a good shot.
12th	13 12th (13) (66/1 -313%) Howdy Partner		66 66/1(-313%)																															(13) Howdy Partner 66/1, Maiden who shaped as if back in form at Ffos Las (2m) 10 weeks ago, still to play his full hand when crashing out. More needed back up in trip. Still in contention when falling last time but now 0-7 over hurdles; others preferred.
5	5 |PU| (5) (28/1 -75%) Kosasiempre		28 28/1(-75%)																															(5) Kosasiempre 28/1, Hinted at ability in a trio of mares' novice hurdles but disappointing on handicap debut at Southwell (20.4f, heavy) 40 days ago. Has had a wind op and also has tongue tie on now. Dropped out tamely on handicap debut; had wind op since; tongue-tie added.

This is the right sort of level for GOGUENARD, who has been in flying form since returning from almost a year on the sidelines. With three wins from four starts since late January, this low-mileage eight-year-old still has plenty to offer from a mark of just 84 and, with ground conditions to suit, the gelding can continue to flourish. Wonderweasle also enters the reckoning off just 3lb higher than her recent Ffos Lass success, while Fresh Speculation rates a player on just his fifth run over hurdles.

A number to consider in this big field, with LOVE OF NEYMORE chanced on her handicap debut. J'Habite En France, the thriving Goguenard and Fresh Speculation are among a number of others that must be respected.

Flat winner MILITARY TYCOON has made a quiet start to his hurdling career but could be on a good mark for this handicap debut.

1	1 1st (1) (6/1 -33%) Jered Maddox		6 6/1(-33%)																															(1) Jered Maddox 6/1, 6-time course winner. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap (22/1) at this course (6f) 8 days ago. Came late to win over 6f 8 days ago; yet to win over minimum trip though.
2	3 2nd (3) (7/2 +30%) Pro Bono Alexander		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(3) Pro Bono Alexander 7/2, 25/1 and blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D 22 days ago by 4¾ lengths from Phil's Dream, readily. Should go well. Ran away with C&D contest last month; 15lb higher now but still unexposed.
3	5 3rd (5) (9/2 +10%) Senor Carrots		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(5) Senor Carrots 9/2, C&D winner. Respectable 2 lengths fourth of 14 to Jered Maddox in handicap at this course (6f, 12/1) 8 days ago. Blinkers back on. Has good chance on pick of form. C&D winner; promising comeback run behind Jered Maddox and drop to 5f to suit.
4	10 4th (10) (3/1 +0%) Phil's Dream		3 3/1(+0%)																															(10) Phil's Dream 3/1, C&D winner. 4/1, respectable 4¾ lengths second of 12 to Pro Bono Alexander in handicap at this C&D 22 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Engaged 5.05 here Friday. Hammered by Pro Bono Alexander two runs ago but second here last night.
5th	2 5th (2) (10/1 -33%) So Majestic		10 10/1(-33%)																															(2) So Majestic 10/1, Fifth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 29 days ago. Something to find on form. Solid recent C&D form; drops in grade and one to consider from a good draw.
6th	4 6th (4) (16/1 -100%) Samrogue		16 16/1(-100%)																															(4) Samrogue 16/1, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win here in December. 11/1, 10¾ lengths thirteenth of 14 to Jered Maddox in handicap at this course (6f) 8 days ago. Others more persuasive. Blew it last time behind Jered Maddox but overall C&D record warrants respect.
7th	9 7th (9) (10/1 -54%) Mary Shoelaces		10 10/1(-54%)																															(9) Mary Shoelaces 10/1, 10/1, bit below form fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 8 days ago. Consistent apart from latest when badly-drawn so can't be ruled out.
8th	8 8th (8) (8/1 +11%) No Speed Limit		8 8/1(+11%)																															(8) No Speed Limit 8/1, 4-time course winner. Latest win here in November. 8/1, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 59 days ago, going off too hard. Merits consideration. Engaged 5.05 here Friday. Four-time course winner but bit to find on recent form.
9th	6 9th (6) (20/1 -67%) Aloysius Lilius		20 20/1(-67%)																															(6) Aloysius Lilius 20/1, Last of 7 in handicap (10/3) at Bellewstown (5f, heavy), left poorly placed. Off 6 months. Yet to win here; lacks a recent run and may find of few of these too sharp.

Jered Maddox recorded a sixth course win when finishing well over 6f last week, but has yet to score over the minimum trip. SENOR CARROTS was about two lengths behind in fourth, but that was a highly creditable effort following a 10-month absence and Andy Oliver's charge should be suited by this trip having won over C&D off a similar mark last spring. Pro Bono Alexander showed much improved form when dropped to this trip here last time, stretching clear inside the final furlong to beat Phil's Dream by nearly five lengths, but has gone up 15lb as a result. So Majestic won twice over five on turf last summer and has run well in both outings here this year.

SENOR CARROTS shaped well back from a 10-month absence when fourth to Jered Maddox over 6f here last week and, now 5 lb better off with that rival and likely to be sharper now, he is taken to emerge on top. Jered Maddox is respected nonetheless but a bigger threat may be posed by Pro Bono Alexander, who hit the target over C&D last month.

A revelation in first-time blinkers here last month when hammering Phil's Dream, PRO BONO ALEXANDER can overcome a 15lb hike

1	4 1st (4) (7/1 +42%) Mythical Guest		7 7/1(+42%)																															(4) Mythical Guest 7/1, Making his second start in a handicap, ran creditably when fifth of 10 at Kempton (11f, 17/2) in September. Has something to find after 6 months off (has been gelded). Off since September; six-race maiden who needs to build on his two handicap performances.
2	11 2nd (11) (5/1 +69%) Gordon Grey		5 5/1(+69%)																															(11) Gordon Grey 5/1, With the headgear left off, returned to form when second of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 50 days ago, albeit having run of the race. Tongue strap applied as he drops back in distance. 12-race maiden; placed from the front over 1m4f on two of his last three starts.
3	8 3rd (8) (6/1 +25%) Gold Aura		6 6/1(+25%)																															(8) Gold Aura 6/1, Remains a maiden but again ran well when third of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, 10/3) 26 days ago. Can give her running once more. 0-11 overall but in top form over 1m2f and 1m4f when hooded on last two outings.
4	2 4th (2) (10/1 -100%) Letaba		10 10/1(-100%)																															(2) Letaba 10/1, Finally off the mark when winning 14-runner handicap (7/2) at Chelmsford City (10f) in December, readily. Could have more to offer now that he's up and running. C&D second; 13th attempt when off the mark at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in December latest.
5th	10 5th (10) (12/1 -33%) Queen's Company		12 12/1(-33%)																															(10) Queen's Company 12/1, All 3 career victories at this venue, winning twice over C&D last season. After 5 months off, possibly needed the run when last of 8 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 33/1) 16 days ago. Not written off back here. Best form over C&D, including two wins last summer; back to her last winning mark.
6th	5 6th (5) (4/1 +27%) Moonlit Cloud		4 4/1(+27%)																															(5) Moonlit Cloud 4/1, C&D winner. Having not been seen to best effect on penultimate start, back on track when second of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, heavy, 4/1) 3 weeks ago, travelling well. Major player. All three wins at 1m2f on turf, latest at this track last May; good 2nd on latest start.
7th	7 7th (7) (16/1 -33%) At Liberty		16 16/1(-33%)																															(7) At Liberty 16/1, C&D winner who gained a first success for current trainer at Wolverhampton in March. Failed to stay longer trip when twelfth of 16 in handicap (14/1) at Chelmsford City (14f) 15 days ago. Could fare better back at 10f. Excuses with soft ground on penultimate start and 1m6f latest; had good C&D record in 2022.
8th	1 8th (1) (6/1 -9%) Royal Dream		6 6/1(-9%)																															(1) Royal Dream 6/1, After 10 weeks off and returned to a shorter trip, back to form when winning 11-runner handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 7/1) 22 days ago. Enters calculations. Three AW wins, latest three weeks ago; lesser turf form but has had only four turf runs.
9th	9 9th (9) (12/1 -71%) Uzincso		12 12/1(-71%)																															(9) Uzincso 12/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. However, he quickly got back on track when 1¾ lengths third of 11 to Royal Dream in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 12/1) 22 days ago. Lurks on a dangerous mark. Last win July 2022; almost a career-low mark and not far away on three of last four starts.
10th	3 10th (3) (22/1 -100%) Birthday Angel		22 22/1(-100%)																															(3) Birthday Angel 22/1, Fair form when making the frame in a trio of minor events, but below that level when last of 7 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 7/1) 32 days ago. Improvement required as he makes his turf debut. Last of seven on handicap debut (1m4f); needs overall improvement on this turf debut.
11th	14 11th (14) (150/1 -200%) College Wizard		150 150/1(-200%)																															(14) College Wizard 150/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Fared little better in another change of headgear when eighth of 9 in handicap (100/1) at Kempton (7f) 38 days ago. Looks to be up against it returned to this longer distance. 16-race maiden; no persuasive form, particularly as he's 6lb out of the handicap..
12th	13 12th (13) (33/1 -175%) Mr Marvlos		33 33/1(-175%)																															(13) Mr Marvlos 33/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. Went backwards from his return when ninth of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 23 days ago. Blinkers reapplied as he goes back up in trip. 0-18 overall and, after 265 days off, never dangerous in his two starts last month.
13th	6 13th (6) (18/1 -50%) Eddie Temple		18 18/1(-50%)																															(6) Eddie Temple 18/1, Not in the same form as on reappearance when last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 9/2) 22 days ago, doing too much too soon. However, it still remains early days for his current yard as he goes back up in trip. Eight-race maiden but two thirds and his final 3yo start (held up) suggested he stays 1m2f.

MOONLIT CLOUD attracted strong support in the betting when she returned to turf with a respectable second in a division of the apprentices' race at Doncaster's Lincoln meeting, and she certainly tried her heart out as the race unfolded. Given the winner of that contest went close off a 10lb higher figure subsequently, Dean Ivory's mare has to be taken seriously off just 1lb higher and can go one place better. Uzincso is a player with Jim Crowley booked, while Chelmsford winner Letaba is also feared now back on turf.

MOONLIT CLOUD ran well when bumping into an unexposed type at Doncaster on her latest outing and, with her last victory coming at this C&D, she could be ready to return to winning ways this time around. Ed Dunlop looks to hold a strong hand and his pair are feared most, with Royal Dream next on the list ahead of Letaba.

Lots of these have each-way claims but the two best options may be QUEEN'S COMPANY and Moonlit Cloud.

1	3 1st (3) (11/8 +39%) Found A Fifty		1.375 11/8(+39%)																															(3) Found A Fifty 11/8, Quick to make into a very smart chaser this term, gaining a second success in Racing Post Chase at Leopardstown in December. Creditable 8½ lengths second of 10 to Gaelic Warrior in Arkle at Cheltenham (2m, heavy) 32 days ago. Sets the standard. No match for Gaelic Warrior in the Arkle but there's nothing of his calibre to fret about.
2	6 2nd (6) (10/1 +29%) Master Chewy		10 10/1(+29%)																															(6) Master Chewy 10/1, Much improved since switching to chasing, winning a C&D novice handicap in October and Kempton Grade 2 (2m, good to soft) over Christmas. Running respectably (probably would have finished fourth) when falling 2 out in Arkle at Cheltenham. Improving chaser who still had place hopes when coming down two out in the Arkle.
3	5 3rd (5) (33/1 -200%) Libberty Hunter		33 33/1(-200%)																															(5) Libberty Hunter 33/1, Progressive sort who won 2m handicap chases at Wincanton and Cheltenham around the turn of the year. Improved again when 2¼ lengths second of 16 in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham last month. Can make his mark outside of handicaps. Progressive handicapper (2nd in the Grand Annual) and earned his right to a crack at this.
4	4 4th (4) (4/1 +27%) Hercule Du Seuil		4 4/1(+27%)																															(4) Hercule Du Seuil 4/1, Gained an eighth win in his last 11 starts and made it 5-6 over fences when just holding on in 2¼m Punchestown Grade 3 in October. Presumably kept fresh for a spring campaign since. Further progress can't be discounted for his top stable. Won his last five over fences but this is a step up from Grade 3 level.
5th	9 5th (9) (18/1 -64%) Quilixios		18 18/1(-64%)																															(9) Quilixios 18/1, Smart hurdler. Won maiden/novice chases in Ireland this season but ran no sort of race when down the field in the Arkle at Cheltenham. Others are preferred. 2-4 over fences and had excuses for the defeats; lost it at the start in the Arkle.
6th	10 6th (10) (66/1 -100%) Silent Approach		66 66/1(-100%)																															(10) Silent Approach 66/1, Failed to win over hurdles but a revelation over fences, springing a 33/1 surprise in a Cork mares' Grade 2 in December. Creditable third at Punchestown in January but not at best twice since. This looks a step too far. 2-5 over fences but this is her first crack at a Grade 1 of any kind.
7th	2 7th (2) (9/1 -100%) Etalon		9 9/1(-100%)																															(2) Etalon 9/1, Novice hurdle winner last term who has taken really well to chasing this time round, dominating when making it 3-3 (all 2m handicaps) at Sandown in February. Looks more than capable of making his presence felt at a higher level. Something to find on the figures but he's 3-3 chasing and improving at a rate of knots.
8th	1 8th (1) (16/1 -45%) Djelo		16 16/1(-45%)																															(1) Djelo 16/1, Won first 3 chases, including making all in 19f Grade 2 at Ascot in December. Creditable 10 lengths third of 11 to Grey Dawning in Golden Miller at Cheltenham (2½m, soft, 25/1) 30 days ago. Back down in trip. Won't mind returning to 2m and, with course form, he has each-way claims.
9th	8 9th (8) (15/2 +32%) Nickle Back		7.5 15/2(+32%)																															(8) Nickle Back 15/2, Much improved since going chasing, winning handicaps at Warwick/Stratford in the autumn before bagging Grade 1 glory at Sandown in February, beating the reopposing Djelo 7 lengths. Bold-jumping front-runner. Front-runner whose best run was on good ground over 2m4f; faces competition to lead.
10th	7 10th (7) (14/1 -65%) Matata		14 14/1(-65%)																															(7) Matata 14/1, Headstrong sort but it hasn't prevented him making up into a smart novice chaser, albeit his limitations at Grade 1 level were seemingly exposed when 19¼ lengths fourth of 10 to Gaelic Warrior in Arkle, with Found A Fifty just under 11 lengths ahead in second. Perhaps not good enough but he's a bold-jumping front-runner and this track will suit.

FOUND A FIFTY has been a model of consistency since going over fences, being campaigned exclusively in Grade 1 company since a successful chasing debut at Down Royal in November. The Gordon Elliott-trained seven-year-old struck at Leopardstown's Christmas meeting and has found only one too strong in both the English and Irish Arkle, as well as the Drinmore. Willie Mullins horses beat him in all three of those races and the all-conquering trainer could provide the main stumbling block again, this time in the shape of Hercule Du Seuil, who has been kept fresh since completing a five-timer at Punchestown in October. Quilixios flopped in the Arkle at Cheltenham but is better than that, while Nickle Back has been a revelation since going over the larger obstacles and trounced Djelo in the Scilly Isles.

FOUND A FIFTY has been most consistent in the top 2m novice chases this season and can land a second win at the highest level. The way Etalon jumps should hold him in good stead now stepping outside of handicap company and he's second choice ahead of the prolific Hercule du Seuil.

A deep renewal. Found A Fifty sets the standard on his Arkle second but MASTER CHEWY was running well in that race when coming down.

1	3 1st (3) (9/4 +25%) Gentleman Bill		2.25 9/4(+25%)																															(3) Gentleman Bill 9/4, £25,000 5-y-o, Rule of Law gelding. Half-brother to fair 21f hurdle winner Gentle And Kind and modest hurdler/fair chaser Snowell. Dam of no account. Successful on second of 2 starts in Irish points (Dec 2023), so he's an interesting Rules newcomer. Changed hands for £25,000 after winning a point; new yard has fine strike-rate in bumpers.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/2 -25%) Battle Born Lad		2.5 5/2(-25%)																															(1) Battle Born Lad 5/2, Half-brother to bumper winner/modest hurdler Dillarchie. Showed plenty to work on when third of 12 over C&D and, with the scope for better, he's an obvious player. Shaped well when third over C&D; should improve and has leading claims.
3	7 3rd (7) (13/2 +59%) Aeroplane Blonde		6.5 13/2(+59%)																															(7) Aeroplane Blonde 13/2, £20,000 3-y-o, Blue Bresil gelding. Dam unraced. Not an obvious sort on paper. Newcomer; yard has the odd bumper winner (4-38 last five seasons); watch the market.
4	6 4th (6) (7/2 -17%) Traveling Soldier		3.5 7/2(-17%)																															(6) Traveling Soldier 7/2, €17,500 3-y-o, £40,000 5-y-o, Mahler gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler Silk Run, probably stayed 3¼m, and fair hurdler Empty The Tank. Runner-up sole outing in Irish points (Dec 2023). Makes plenty of appeal on paper. Second to Gentleman Bill in a point; has joined stable with good record in bumpers.
5th	4 5th (4) (16/1 -60%) Jirko		16 16/1(-60%)																															(4) Jirko 16/1, Related to a bumper winner and showed some ability when fourth at Ayr 47 days ago. More required if he's to feature in this, however. Something to build on when 22l fourth of six at Ayr; improvement needed but possible.
6th	2 6th (2) (18/1 -29%) Bold Yeoman		18 18/1(-29%)																															(2) Bold Yeoman 18/1, £1,500 3-y-o, Youmzain gelding. Half-brother to modest 3¼m chase winner Dangan des Champs and a point winner. Cheap purchase who is bred to need time and distance. Newcomer; trainer 0-8 in bumpers but Brian Hughes (2-6 for the yard) is a positive booking.
7th	5 7th (5) (18/1 -157%) Tees Comp's Clive		18 18/1(-157%)																															(5) Tees Comp's Clive 18/1, Half-brother to 5 winners, including useful hurdler Teescomponents Lad and fairly useful hurdler Teescomponentsyess. Only fifth over C&D on debut but could have learned from that. Some promise when 7l fifth of eight over C&D; should improve and make more of an impact.

BATTLE BORN LAD displayed plenty of promise when filling third place on his racecourse bow over C&D last month and the Mark Walford-trained five-year-old could be hard to beat with the benefit of that experience. Gentleman Bill beat Traveling Soldier in an Irish point-to-point in December and they have to be of interest on their Rules debuts, while Tees Comp's Clive is another to consider.

TRAVELING SOLDIER produced a promising effort when runner-up in a point and has since joined a yard that does well in this discipline, so a chance is taken on him to get the better of Battle Born Lad, who is clear pick of those with bumper experience. Gentleman Bill is another one to consider.

None can be ruled out, but preference is for BATTLE BORN LAD who showed he could handle testing ground when third here last month.

1	7 1st (7) (4/1 +50%) Tenyatta		4 4/1(+50%)																															(7) Tenyatta 4/1, 17/2, creditable 1½ lengths fourth of 8 to Inawe in handicap at this C&D 29 days ago, nearest finish. First run for yard after leaving Jamie Osborne. Worth monitoring in the betting on debut for new yard. 0-9 for J Osborne but flickers of ability; not discounted starting out for a new yard.
2	9 2nd (9) (28/1 -133%) Alextrician		28 28/1(-133%)																															(9) Alextrician 28/1, Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (25/1) at Newcastle (8f) 22 days ago. Not yet fully exposed, so could do better still. Two of his three handicap runs have been encouraging but still requires improvement to win.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/5 +27%) Profitman		0.8 4/5(+27%)																															(1) Profitman 4/5, C&D winner. Improved to win 8-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 6/5) 7 days ago, unchallenged. Has to be taken seriously. Won his last two in decisive fashion; up another 8lb but he looks a cut above this grade.
4	8 4th (8) (11/2 +45%) Amerigo Vespucci		5.5 11/2(+45%)																															(8) Amerigo Vespucci 11/2, First run since leaving M. D. O'Callaghan when respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 6/1) 38 days ago. Others make more appeal. Needs to step up on last month's stable debut but that's not out of the question.
5th	10 5th (10) (28/1 -40%) Dash Power		28 28/1(-40%)																															(10) Dash Power 28/1, 2 lengths third of 8 to Profitman in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 100/1) 7 days ago. Needs to up his game if he's to turn the tables with that rival. More promise when 3rd behind Profitman last week; not obviously fancied to turn the tables.
6th	4 6th (4) (17/2 -55%) Si Si La Bonne		8.5 17/2(-55%)																															(4) Si Si La Bonne 17/2, Bit below form fourth of 12 in handicap (17/2) at this C&D 42 days ago, not much room. Has shaped better than the result on last two starts and remains one to be interested in at a low level. Effective here and better than last run suggests; T Whelan replaces a 7lb claimer; chance.
7th	3 7th (3) (33/1 -65%) Askim		33 33/1(-65%)																															(3) Askim 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, fifth of 9 in maiden at Newcastle (6f). Off 165 days. Makes handicap debut. Should progress, although may need this return. Modest form in three sprint runs at 2; likely improver handicapping over further this year.
8th	6 8th (6) (50/1 -257%) Rust E Boy		50 50/1(-257%)																															(6) Rust E Boy 50/1, 7/4, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 11 days ago. Arrives in form and shouldn't be ruled out. 15-race maiden; no problem with conditions but likely vulnerable for the win once more.
9th	12 9th (12) (22/1 -83%) Showboated		22 22/1(-83%)																															(12) Showboated 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 7/1, fourth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 26 days ago, slowly away. Not one to write off. Ran a better race when a close fourth on his handicap debut last month (6f); unexposed.
10th	5 10th (5) (40/1 -150%) Inawe		40 40/1(-150%)																															(5) Inawe 40/1, C&D winner. Winner here in March. 22/1, 15 lengths last of 9 to Profitman in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Others more persuasive. C&D win last month has been franked but ran poorly behind Profitman last time; wide draw.

The penny has dropped in no uncertain terms for PROFITMAN who, after signalling ability with a couple of third-placed finishes, broke through over C&D before supplementing that triumph at Chelmsford. He is up another 8lb but must be stuck with. Dash Power belied triple-figure odds when just two lengths adrift of the selection in third last week and if there was no fluke about that big step in the right direction, he could be the primary threat, although Supreme Tenacity and Rust E Boy may have something to say about that.

PROFITMAN has improved since positive tactics have been employed and, having scored with plenty to spare at Chelmsford a week ago, he's a solid proposition in the hat-trick bid. Si Si La Bonne is a big danger on the back of some encouraging efforts and Tenyatta is of some interest on debut for a new stable.

Si Si La Bonne can win races around here but PROFITMAN has looked a cut above this level the last twice and can go in again.

1	4 1st (4) (6/4 -50%) Heart Of Darkness		1.5 6/4(-50%)																															(4) Heart Of Darkness 6/4, 50,000 gns yearling, Mehmas filly. Half-sister to 5f-6f winner Just A Spark. Fourth of 18 in maiden at Cork (5f, heavy, 3/1) on debut 14 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve and good shout here. Plenty of debut promise at Cork recently; quicker surface here could suit.
2	7 2nd (7) (17/2 +15%) Ojw Legacy		8.5 17/2(+15%)																															(7) Ojw Legacy 17/2, Twice-raced filly. 16/1, third of 13 in 7f maiden here in November, headed approaching final 1f and no extra. Could have more to offer this season. Didn't seem to stay 7f when last seen so drop in trip could suit.
3	6 3rd (6) (10/1 -54%) Oh So Bright		10 10/1(-54%)																															(6) Oh So Bright 10/1, Twice-raced filly. 40/1, fourth of 5 in minor event at this C&D on return 29 days ago. Capable of winning a maiden. C&D fourth in winners' contest augurs well back in maiden company.
4	1 4th (1) (22/1 +45%) Ateenosix		22 22/1(+45%)																															(1) Ateenosix 22/1, Thrice-raced gelding. 33/1, fifth of 13 in maiden at this course (7f) 22 days ago. Something to take from three starts here but lot more required to win a maiden.
5th	8 5th (8) (5/4 +44%) Vivienda		1.25 5/4(+44%)																															(8) Vivienda 5/4, Well-bred, twice-raced filly. Fourth of 13 in maiden (7/2) at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) when last seen. Off 7 months. Stable in good form. Ought to go close. Two Naas runs last season make her a contender on AW debut.
6th	5 6th (5) (50/1 -127%) Luxury Island		50 50/1(-127%)																															(5) Luxury Island 50/1, €4,000 yearling, Kodiac filly. Dam 9f winner (from only 2 starts) out of useful 2-y-o 7f winner Sense of Joy (won both starts, including Prestige Stakes). 66/1, sixth of 14 in maiden at this course (7f) on debut 8 days ago. Open to improvement. Didn't seem to quite stay on recent debut over 7f; back in trip but may need more time.
7th	2 7th (2) (14/1 -87%) Judge Me Not		14 14/1(-87%)																															(2) Judge Me Not 14/1, Inns of Court colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 6f winner Leap Abroad and 2-y-o 5f winner Exceeder. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Market should guide as to expectations on debut. Market likely best guide on debut.
8th	3 8th (3) (125/1 -150%) The Expert		125 125/1(-150%)																															(3) The Expert 125/1, Once-raced gelding. Ninth of 14 in maiden (80/1) at this C&D on debut 43 days ago, not knocked about. Reportedly hung right throughout when soundly beaten on C&D debut last month; best watched.

VIVIENDA showed plenty of promise on both outings over this trip at Naas last year. The daughter of Showcasing was placed on debut in a race that has thrown up a number of winners and, on a line through Sweetest, probably ran to at least the same level subsequently behind Prime Art, who went on to land a Group 3 at Ayr. Heart Of Darkness only weakened well inside the final furlong on debut at Cork and with the benefit of that run under her belt and this much sounder surface, rates an obvious threat. Ojw Legacy and Oh So Bright are others to consider after two decent runs, while Judge Me Not is a half-brother to a couple of winners and any market move would be significant.

HEART OF DARKNESS was well found in the betting and made an encouraging start at Cork a fortnight ago. Likely to improve on this different surface she can open her account for her in-form yard. Oh So Bright is feared most down in class, ahead of Vivienda.

Following a promising debut on heavy ground last month HEART OF DARKNESS can strike here on a sounder surface

1	5 1st (5) (9/2 +18%) Kuwait City		4.5 9/2(+18%)																															(5) Kuwait City 9/2, C&D winner. Raced too freely when ninth of 16 in handicap at Ascot (6f, good, 40/1) on his last outing in October. Drops in grade on his return from 6 months off. Resumes on a handy mark but he may just need this after six months off; market useful.
2	4 2nd (4) (15/2 +25%) Dubai Station		7.5 15/2(+25%)																															(4) Dubai Station 15/2, In blinkers, third of 4 in handicap (9/2) at Chelmsford City (5f) 44 days ago, without really threatening. Rejoined yard after leaving Mike Murphy & Michael Keady. Has eased further in the weights with cheekpieces back on. On the downgrade in recent times and last two wins over 6f on AW; worth a market check.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/1 +0%) Stone Circle		7 7/1(+0%)																															(6) Stone Circle 7/1, Three-time C&D winner. Run of good form halted when ninth of 10 in handicap here (good to soft, 17/2) on final start last season. However, he's a leading contender as he bids for back-to-back wins in this race. Won this last year off a similar mark/layoff; softer ground would have been optimal.
4	1 4th (1) (9/2 +36%) Ancient Times		4.5 9/2(+36%)																															(1) Ancient Times 9/2, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Failed to build on promise of his previous run when eighth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 17/2) in December. Has been given a chance by the handicapper ahead of his return. Won first time out in 2022; happiest on easy courses too, so there are positives.
5th	3 5th (3) (13/2 +54%) Tremblant		6.5 13/2(+54%)																															(3) Tremblant 13/2, Reverted to patient tactics, below form when seventh of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 8/1) 49 days ago. More required on his first attempt at 5f having had a wind op. Has undergone wind surgery; whether he'll have the speed for this is the question.
6th	2 6th (2) (12/1 -50%) Fantasy Master		12 12/1(-50%)																															(2) Fantasy Master 12/1, After 5 months off, possibly needed the run when 7¼ lengths seventh of 9 to Bang on The Bell in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 10/1) 30 days ago. Ended last season in decent heart so he could be closer to form this time. No wiggle room off this mark and he didn't offer a lot on his Chelmsford comeback.
7th	7 7th (7) (4/1 -45%) Bang On The Bell		4 4/1(-45%)																															(7) Bang On The Bell 4/1, C&D winner. Proved better than ever when winning 9-runner handicap (4/1) at Chelmsford City (5f) a month ago, though suited by way race developed. Respected from lower turf mark. Found burst of improvement; is ideally suited by an easy 5f; fair chance of the hat-trick.
8th	8 8th (8) (8/1 +11%) Angle Land		8 8/1(+11%)																															(8) Angle Land 8/1, Three wins from 18 runs last year. Not discredited when third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 9/2) when last seen in November. Capable of getting involved from her current mark. Decent record in the spring but her wins have come after a recent outing.
9th	11 9th (11) (50/1 -100%) Enchanted Night		50 50/1(-100%)																															(11) Enchanted Night 50/1, Sole success from 40 Flat runs came at this C&D last summer. Ended the year with a couple of her better efforts, second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 11/1) in October. Long way out of the weights on her return. Closed out last season in 0-55 company and this is tougher from well out of the handicap.
10th	9 10th (9) (50/1 -400%) Speedacus		50 50/1(-400%)																															(9) Speedacus 50/1, Won 3 times for David O'Meara last year. However, has struggled in 5 starts for his current yard, last of 10 in handicap at Catterick (6f, heavy, 11/) 10 days ago. Has enough to prove at present. Again no sign of the headgear sported for last four wins; would want to see good support.

STONE CIRCLE struck in this contest last year following a break and he can do so once more off just 1lb higher, with Hector Crouch returning to the saddle for the first time since last June. Bang On The Bell continues to go from strength to strength on the all-weather but must now prove himself on the turf again, while Kuwait City has been inconsistent since landing a big-field handicap at York last May. Ancient Times and Angle Land are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

STONE CIRCLE was successful in this race on his return last season and, from only 1 lb higher in the weights this year, he can add a fourth C&D victory to his tally. The biggest threat could come from Zargun, who is worth another chance to build on his Doncaster win on his penultimate start, with the hat-trick seeking Bang on The Bell also in the mix.

Conditions are ideal for ANCIENT TIMES, who goes well fresh and is on a handy mark. Last year's winner Stone Circle has claims too.

1	5 1st (5) (14/1 -17%) Horaces Pearl		14 14/1(-17%)																															(5) Horaces Pearl 14/1, Half-brother to 2 winners on Flat and two from two in bumpers so far, landing a 17-runner event at Wincanton cosily last time. Up to competing in this grade. Not strong form in winning both his bumpers and he's been absent a good while.
2	14 2nd (14) (13/2 +41%) Tripoli Flyer		6.5 13/2(+41%)																															(14) Tripoli Flyer 13/2, Brother to useful hurdler Anyharminasking and left debut form well behind when scoring comfortably from Kingston Pride in 13-runner bumper at Lingfield last time. Could do better still. AW bumpers are usually best treated with a pinch of salt but he impressed at Lingfield.
3	3 3rd (3) (14/1 -27%) Good And Clever		14 14/1(-27%)																															(3) Good And Clever 14/1, From quite a good family and made a pleasing start when landing a 12-runner contest at Warwick in convincing fashion, forging clear. Capable of better and not without hope. Hard not to be impressed with how he drew clear of a previous winner on soft at Warwick.
4	15 4th (15) (15/2 +32%) Valgrand		7.5 15/2(+32%)																															(15) Valgrand 15/2, Runner-up sole start in Irish points. Showed plenty when second of 15 in bumper at Cheltenham (16.4f, soft) on Rules debut 5 months ago. Concern that he's not been seen since but has potential. Improvement demanded in this company but that's very feasible having shaped well.
5th	18 5th (18) (14/1 -27%) Sorceleur		14 14/1(-27%)																															(18) Sorceleur 14/1, Chased home the unbeaten Kel du Large on first two starts, then readily opened his account at Taunton last time. Should go well again for all that others might have that bit more class. Impressed in a softer grade at Taunton; this is a tough test for 4yos.
6th	11 6th (11) (20/1 -67%) No Questions Asked		20 20/1(-67%)																															(11) No Questions Asked 20/1, £50,000 buy after winning a 2-finisher point in April 2022. Only outing since when landing a 5-runner event at Market Rasen readily on Rules debut. Not dismissed for yard that landed the mares' bumper earlier in the week. Easy Market Rasen winner; open to improvement for a yard that's strong in this division.
7th	4 7th (4) (40/1 +0%) Got A Dream		40 40/1(+0%)																															(4) Got A Dream 40/1, Getaway gelding who left debut form behind when landing an 8-runner bumper at Huntingdon last time. Could step forward again but will need to if he's to hold any sort of chance. Huntingdon winner last month but this is a different ball game altogether.
8th	8 8th (8) (125/1 -89%) Malicash		125 125/1(-89%)																															(8) Malicash 125/1, Malinas gelding who bettered previous efforts when runner-up at Kelso last time but is still likely to come up well short at this level. Twice placed in bumpers, so his turn will come; looks outclassed here, however.
9th	6 9th (6) (22/1 +12%) I'm A Lumberjack		22 22/1(+12%)																															(6) I'm A Lumberjack 22/1, Shaped well amidst inexperience on debut and has bettered that since, his latest third in listed company at Newbury an excellent effort. Others have more potential, however. Reasonable level of form this season but he smacks of a horse crying out for further.
10th	2 10th (2) (14/1 +36%) Electric Mason		14 14/1(+36%)																															(2) Electric Mason 14/1, Bought for £110,000 after finishing second in an Irish point and has shaped encouragingly for new connections, landing 8-runner bumper at Kempton in February. Creditable second at Fontwell since and can't be completely dismissed. Came up short when penalised at Fontwell and he's not the obvious answer.
11th	16 11th (16) (100/1 -203%) Wellington Arch		100 100/1(-203%)																															(16) Wellington Arch 100/1, Brother to bumper winner and followed suit at the first attempt in 10-runner event at Worcester in October. Creditable efforts since but needs more at this level. Twice beaten under a penalty since debut win at Worcester in October; stable second string.
12th	17 12th (17) (100/1 -456%) Small Town Hero		100 100/1(-456%)																															(17) Small Town Hero 100/1, €7,000 3-y-o, £75,000 4-y-o, Jet Away gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful 2m/21f hurdle winner El Saviour and fair hurdler/chaser Brown Bear. Won sole start in Irish points (Feb 24). Tough assignment on Rules debut. Beat just three rivals to win his Irish point and he's in at the deep end for rules debut.
13th	12 13th (12) (66/1 -100%) Step Out		66 66/1(-100%)																															(12) Step Out 66/1, Steadily progressive so far, tongue tied for the first time when second at Ayr last time, but he'll probably come up well short against this opposition. 0-3 in bumpers but last two races were won by notable opposition; not dismissed.
14th	10 14th (10) (15/8 +16%) Mister Meggit		1.875 15/8(+16%)																															(10) Mister Meggit 15/8, Looked a very good prospect when easy winner on his Carlisle debut in November and created an equally taking impression at Doncaster last time, not coming off the bridle. Will take all the beating. Unextended to win two bumpers in the north of England and could be anything.
15th	13 15th (13) (40/1 -122%) Tom Doniphon		40 40/1(-122%)																															(13) Tom Doniphon 40/1, Irish point runner-up from the family of Grand Sancy. All out to make a winning start at Fontwell, then found only one too good at Doncaster last time. Should put up another solid showing but others have more potential. Narrow Fontwell winner who came up short under a penalty at Doncaster.
16th	1 16th (1) (8/1 +20%) Castle Ivers		8 8/1(+20%)																															(1) Castle Ivers 8/1, Easy winner sole start in Irish points and quickened clear in good style to land a 3-runner contest at Southwell in January. Back to winning ways at Wetherby in taking style last time and could be on the premises. His only defeat in bumpers came behind Tripoli Flyer on the AW at Lingfield in January.
17th	7 17th (7) (100/1 -300%) Leech		100 100/1(-300%)																															(7) Leech 100/1, From the family of smart hurdler (stayed 19f) Local Hero and build on promising debut when off the mark at Chepstow 49 days ago. Further progress required. It's hard to envisage him being quick enough to win this but he's one with a future.
18th	9 18th (9) (7/1 +36%) Ma Shantou		7 7/1(+36%)																															(9) Ma Shantou 7/1, Excellent start when third of 10 at Fairyhouse in December and, having moved to current yard for £120,000, opened his account impressively at Huntingdon last time. Worth his place in this company. Impressed at Huntingdon and he's one of many in this race with the potential to feature.

This can go the way of MISTER MEGGIT, who may not have been out of place in the Champion Bumper going by the impressive displays he has put up at both Carlisle and Doncaster. In colours synonymous with this famous track, the son of Shantou looks the one to beat and might prove too classy for comfortable Lingfield scorer Tripoli Flyer, as well as Sorceleur, who wasn't for catching at Taunton last time out. Not in action since a promising second at Cheltenham in October, Valgrand completes the shortlist.

MISTER MEGGIT has looked highly talented on both runs to date and could have a lot more to come, so he's a straightforward choice to maintain his unbeaten record up in grade. Ma Shantou is a danger following an impressive start for his new stable and Castle Ivers is one of several others that shouldn't be ruled out.

Jonjo O'Neill's MISTER MEGGIT has hinted at star potential in winning both his races in a canter. Tripoli Flyer is second choice.

Dam, 7f-8.6f winner, half-sister to useful 1¼m-1¾m winner (stayed 2½m) Totalize. Bred to want significantly further than this.

Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 2-y-o 7f winner Ibiza Rocks and 1m-1¼m winner I Still Have Faith. Interesting newcomer on paper. Half-sister to 3 winners out of Listed-placed 5f winner; fair standard to aim at on debut.
3	2 3rd (2) (10/1 -233%) Gabriae		10 10/1(-233%)																															(2) Gabriae 10/1, Promising individual. 12/1, second of 8 in maiden at Southwell (5f) 28 days ago. Capable of taking another step forward, so warrants respect. Two runs this year have been encouraging but likely she'll need further progress to win.
4	3 4th (3) (6/1 -9%) Little Miss Magic		6 6/1(-9%)																															(3) Little Miss Magic 6/1, Once-raced filly. 14/1, fourth of 10 in minor event at Kempton (6f) on debut, better placed than most. Off 6 months. Open to improvement. Green under pressure on Kempton debut in September (6f); can do better this year.
5th	5 5th (5) (2/1 -45%) Orchard Park		2 2/1(-45%)																															(5) Orchard Park 2/1, Twice-raced filly. Second of 5 in minor event at Southwell (5f, evens) 39 days ago. Hard to oppose. Two promising 5f runs at Southwell this year; more to come and she's a major player.

Orchard Park is edging towards the winner's enclosure, while Little Miss Magic offered encouragement when fourth on her introduction in quite a decent race at Kempton. Gabriae will need to raise her game if she is to go one better than she did at Southwell, and a chance is taken on SWEET CAROLINA. Charlie Fellowes' newcomer is out of a Listed winner on the all-weather, from the extended family of One So Wonderful, so it isn't a surprise she made 140,000gns as a yearling.

ORCHARD PARK has shaped with encouragement when runner-up on both starts to date, still green at Southwell last time, and she's worth a chance to open her account at the third attempt. Gabriae is a danger having found improvement last time and Carribean Wind is the more appealing of the two newcomers.

Little Miss Magic looks a likely improver this year but ORCHARD PARK has shown enough in her two starts to earn her the vote.

10th	7 10th (7) (18/1 +28%) Punta Coco		18 18/1(+28%)																															(7) Punta Coco 18/1, Twice-raced filly. Third of 14 in maiden at this C&D (8/1) 78 days ago, never nearer. Open to further progress. Pleasing AW/seasonal debut when third over C&D, further improvement is on the cards.

MAYFAIR is certainly bred in the purple being by Justify out of Group 1 winner Clemmie, which makes her a sister to Unless, who won a Listed race for the Ballydoyle team at the Curragh last year. She made a promising debut at Galway last summer and again encountered testing ground when narrowly denied on her reappearance at the Curragh last month. There are plenty of well-bred newcomers in the line-up including Authenticate, who cost 680,000gns as a yearling, and Super Sox, by Showcasing from a speedy family. Star Magnolia is a half-sister to four winners including Zarinsk, a five-time winner, including a Group 2, for the same connections last year.

This has the look of a good maiden, with the well-bred MAYFAIR taken to open her account at the third attempt following a pleasing return at the Curragh. Authenticate and Star Magnolia are two of several appealing newcomers.

Newcomers Authenticate, Star Magnolia and Super Sox are respected, but the experience gained by MAYFAIR could be decisive

1	7 1st (7) (14/1 -133%) Magnificent Match		14 14/1(-133%)																															(7) Magnificent Match 14/1, Blinkered for 1st time, respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 4/1). Off 94 days and he looks vulnerable for win purposes. Attracted support latest only to blow the start; interesting to see if there's money again.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/2 +36%) Berry Clever		3.5 7/2(+36%)																															(4) Berry Clever 7/2, Bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap (9/2) at Southwell (7.1f) 16 days ago. Merits consideration judged on her solid second at Newcastle in November. Prominent in the market all three runs since handicapping; one to consider in an open race.
2	8 2nd (8) (17/2 +6%) Shaws Phoenix		8.5 17/2(+6%)																															(8) Shaws Phoenix 17/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Good fourth of 13 in nursery (9/1) at Leicester (7f, good) on final start of 2-y-o campaign. First run for yard after leaving Rod Millman and needs to raise her game. Twice ran well below market expectations for Rod Millman last year; new yard going well.
4	10 4th (10) (25/1 -178%) Ocean Bliss		25 25/1(-178%)																															(10) Ocean Bliss 25/1, Good third of 10 in handicap (7/1) at Newcastle (8f) 22 days ago. Place possibilities off the same mark. Well-related filly; better last time and is one to consider off the same mark.
5th	3 5th (3) (13/2 -117%) Notre Dame		6.5 13/2(-117%)																															(3) Notre Dame 13/2, 5/2, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 28 days ago, overcoming pace bias. 4 lb rise may not be enough to prevent her from completing the hat-trick. Needs another step forward up 4lb but has a fair chance of the hat-trick if more amenable.
6th	9 6th (9) (66/1 -164%) Silver Shamrock		66 66/1(-164%)																															(9) Silver Shamrock 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in nursery (22/1) at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy). Off 178 days and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. Nothing exciting last autumn and Notre Dame is clearly her yard's best chance.
7th	2 7th (2) (11/2 +73%) Inappropriate		5.5 11/2(+73%)																															(2) Inappropriate 11/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 250/1, ninth of 13 in minor event at Newmarket (7f, soft). Off 162 days ahead of this handicap debut and sizeable step forward needed. Gelded; this is more realistic and he needs a market check.
8th	6 8th (6) (15/2 -25%) Twenty Bob		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(6) Twenty Bob 15/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1 and visored for 1st time, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 25 days ago, needing stiffer test. Not without each-way hope. Not beaten far last time when again looking worth a try over 1m; holds claims.
9th	5 9th (5) (16/1 -167%) Sir Bolton		16 16/1(-167%)																															(5) Sir Bolton 16/1, Course winner. Last of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 11/4) 25 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Readily passed over. Evidently felt capable but needs to settle in the first-time tongue-tie back up in trip.
10th	12 10th (12) (80/1 -60%) Angel Of Gold		80 80/1(-60%)																															(12) Angel Of Gold 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 100/1) 74 days ago, folding. Makes turf debut. Big prices all starts on the AW and has continued to struggle since handicapping.
11th	1 11th (1) (7/2 +42%) Cuban Fiesta		3.5 7/2(+42%)																															(1) Cuban Fiesta 7/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 4/1, very good third of 9 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 13 days ago. 1 lb nudge fair enough and can make his presence felt. Better expected on handicap debut over 1m and his 3rd was more like it; on the shortlist.
12th	13 12th (13) (33/1 +34%) Priscilla's Joy		33 33/1(+34%)																															(13) Priscilla's Joy 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 250/1, twentieth of 22 in minor event at Newmarket (6f, good to firm). Off 6 months and significantly up in trip for this handicap debut. Very well related but beaten a long way in three 6f runs as 2yo; handicap debut.
13th	11 13th (11) (125/1 -279%) Jaunty Dancer		125 125/1(-279%)																															(11) Jaunty Dancer 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1 and visored for 1st time, fifth of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 54 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Alice Haynes. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Didn't go on at all for Alice Haynes and was sold for 1,800gns last month.

An improver on the step up to a mile at Southwell when a one-length third on his handicap bow, CUBAN FIESTA is open to plenty more progression and this looks like an ideal opportunity to break the maiden. Notre Dame arrives on a hat-trick from the all-weather, but showed little in four starts on the turf last year. Shaws Phoenix is one to monitor for market support on her first start for new connections, while Ocean Bliss is entitled to build upon a strong placed effort at Newcastle.

If NOTRE DAME is able to translate her improved all-weather form back on turf she will probably have enough in the locker to shrug off a 4 lb rise for her Southwell success last month. Cuban Fiesta shaped with encouragement upped to this trip on his handicap debut at Southwell and he rates the main danger ahead of Berry Clever.

There was nothing wrong with CUBAN FIESTA's comeback Southwell third and he's preferred to the hat-trick seeking Notre Dame.

1	7 1st (7) (11/10 +51%) Grey Cuban		1.1 11/10(+51%)																															(7) Grey Cuban 11/10, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable third of 16 in minor event at York (7f, heavy, 4/1), helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Gelded and off 6 months, looks a big player up in trip. Ran to a useful level as a 2yo at up to 7f; been gelded; chance if his stamina holds out.
2	1 2nd (1) (15/8 -15%) Local Hero		1.875 15/8(-15%)																															(1) Local Hero 15/8, Looked an exciting prospect when easy winner of 9-runner novice at Kempton (8f) in August, then seemed amiss in listed company at Doncaster next time. Worth a chance to get back to winning ways after 7 months off. Impressive on his 2yo debut; bogged down on soft on 2nd run; leading claims at this level.
3	3 3rd (3) (33/1 -136%) Flashy Apache		33 33/1(-136%)																															(3) Flashy Apache 33/1, Twice-raced maiden. 50/1, seventh of 11 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW). Off 170 days. More required. Two AW runs last October weren't bad but he looks the stable second string this time.
4	4 4th (4) (28/1 -100%) Rock City Falls		28 28/1(-100%)																															(4) Rock City Falls 28/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 11 in maiden at Southwell (8.1f, 25/1) 23 days ago. Should do better at some point. Second run (RPR 71) was better than his debut; more to come but yard also run Grey Cuban.
5th	5 5th (5) (12/1 -50%) Currumbin		12 12/1(-50%)																															(5) Currumbin 12/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 10 in maiden (4/1) at Dundalk (10.7f) 73 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not dismissed for all that he has a bit to find. Promise in two runs at Dundalk this year; cheekpieces now added; each-way contender.
6th	10 6th (10) (10/1 -82%) Malinka		10 10/1(-82%)																															(10) Malinka 10/1, Twice-raced maiden. Third of 10 in minor event (13/2) at Lingfield (8f, AW). Off 129 days. Open to progress and worth monitoring in the betting on return. Kept on for third at Lingfield in December (1m); longer trips will suit in time.
7th	2 7th (2) (12/1 -50%) Toxic		12 12/1(-50%)																															(2) Toxic 12/1, Once-raced winner. Won 9-runner maiden (8/1) at this course (9.5f) on debut 21 days ago, driven out. This demands more but she's open to improvement and can't be dismissed. Winning debut over 9.5f here 3 weeks ago, travelling well; this is tougher under a penalty.
8th	6 8th (6) (80/1 -142%) Emerald City		80 80/1(-142%)																															(6) Emerald City 80/1, Twice-raced maiden. 20/1, eighth of 11 in maiden at Lingfield (8f, AW). Off 130 days. Hooded for 1st time. Temperament as well as some promise in two 2yo runs; handicaps over further more suitable.
9th	11 9th (11) (100/1 +0%) Takes Time		100 100/1(+0%)																															(11) Takes Time 100/1, Once-raced maiden. 125/1, seventh of 13 in maiden at this course (9.5f) on debut 11 days ago, slowly away. 125-1, green and beaten over 9l in a 9.5f maiden here 11 days ago; one for the longer term.
10th	8 10th (8) (200/1 -100%) Master Toney		200 200/1(-100%)																															(8) Master Toney 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 10 in maiden (200/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 18 days ago. Up in trip. Well held at 200-1 in his first two starts; up in trip.
11th	9 11th (9) (100/1 -203%) Signature Blue		100 100/1(-203%)																															(9) Signature Blue 100/1, €24,000 yearling, Gregorian gelding. Half-brother to winner up to 1m Inner Beauty. Not an obvious sort on paper. Bred to have a future but yard's newcomers usually better for a run.

On the back of a debut victory at Kempton, Local Hero was pitched into Listed company at the St Leger meeting and although he failed to beat a rival home, he has a future. He does have to concede weight all round and that sways the vote in favour of GREY CUBAN, who acquitted himself well in some valuable sales races as a juvenile and has been gelded during his time off. Toxic possibly didn't beat much over C&D, while Currumbin is an interesting Irish raider.

LOCAL HERO was impressive on debut at Kempton, then wasn't right at Doncaster next time, so he's worth another chance to underline his potential back on AW after 7 months off. Grey Cuban is the obvious danger on form and Toxic can't be dismissed on the back of a winning debut in a lesser race.

Currumbin and Grey Cuban have shown winning potential but LOCAL HERO, so promising on debut, can defy his penalty.

1	10 1st (10) (7/1 -27%) Suityourselfboss		7 7/1(-27%)																															(10) Suityourselfboss 7/1, 8/1, seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D 8 days ago, shaping much better than the bare result, doing well to get into contention considering how wide/freely she raced. Rider able to claim full 7 lb this time and she's of definite interest. Placed on three consecutive visits here before lesser display last week, may bounce back.
2	9 2nd (9) (17/2 -21%) Alabama Calling		8.5 17/2(-21%)																															(9) Alabama Calling 17/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, good fifth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 78 days ago. Going the right way. Met some trouble in running when fifth here on handicap debut, may do better.

Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (10/3) 64 days ago. Beaten a nose by a well-handicapped rival in December, did not quite match form on latest.
5th	6 5th (6) (20/1 +0%) Gatsby Cap		20 20/1(+0%)																															(6) Gatsby Cap 20/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in February. Eleventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 8 days ago. Two wins here this year already but a long way below his best on his last two starts.

Engaged 6.10 here Friday. Highly consistent in 6f/7f handicaps in recent months, should be in the mix if staying.
7th	5 7th (5) (12/1 -33%) The Bog Bank		12 12/1(-33%)																															(5) The Bog Bank 12/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 28/1, bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 8 days ago. Enters calculations. Dual C&D winner, out of the money on last four visits, not a bad effort in sixth last week.
8th	2 8th (2) (9/2 +44%) Feature This		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(2) Feature This 9/2, 4-time C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year. Latest win here in March. Ninth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (7/1) 8 days ago. Others more persuasive. All four wins have come over this C&D, gained the latest of those on penultimate start.

10th	1 10th (1) (8/1 -60%) Bungle Inthedesert		8 8/1(-60%)																															(1) Bungle Inthedesert 8/1, C&D winner. Winner here in March. Disappointing when thirteenth of 14 in handicap (4/1) at this C&D 8 days ago. Things failed to work out for him last week, solid chance if that performance is forgiven.
11th	11 11th (11) (33/1 -65%) Kudbegood		33 33/1(-65%)																															(11) Kudbegood 33/1, 3-time C&D winner. 20/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago. All three wins have come over C&D, long losing run at present and struggling recently.
12th	14 12th (14) (18/1 +10%) Wonderwalk		18 18/1(+10%)																															(14) Wonderwalk 18/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Off 4 months, 40/1, seventh of 14 in maiden at this C&D 50 days ago. Makes handicap debut and could do better. Mild promise on the second of two C&D maiden runs, worth a market check on handicap debut.
13th	7 13th (7) (40/1 -122%) Purring Along		40 40/1(-122%)																															(7) Purring Along 40/1, 16/1, thirteenth of 16 in handicap at Galway (7f, heavy) when last seen. Off 166 days.

BUNGLE INTHEDESERT suffered a nightmare trip last week when he was slowly into stride and short of room as the race hotted up. He is better judged on his penultimate start when victorious by half a length over C&D. Siobhan Rutledge, who did the steering that day, is back on board. Seamie Heffernan has a fair record aboard Leabaland, who was pipped by a nose over C&D on his penultimate appearance, while Sunset Nova is on a mark that could see him run into a place at least.

There is a race in SUITYOURSELFBOSS and today could be the day. Alabama Calling and The Bog Bank are a couple of the dangers.

Several of these have sound claims based on a penultimate run. Slight preference is for LEABALAND, only just denied here in December.

1	8 1st (8) (10/3 +26%) Mister Mojito		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(8) Mister Mojito 10/3, Lightly-raced maiden. 3/1, good third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 14 days ago. Every inch a leading contender with Jim Crowley booked. Doesn't look the easiest of rides but one of the more interesting ones on recent AW thirds.
2	7 2nd (7) (17/2 +39%) Kurimu		8.5 17/2(+39%)																															(7) Kurimu 17/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Good fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 25/1) 28 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Failed to see out this trip last autumn but her comeback run wasn't devoid of promise.

Off 124 days ahead of this turf/handicap debut and cheekpieces on 1st time. Easy to look elsewhere. Hung left all four starts late last year; the subsequent gelding op ought to have helped.

Hopes pinned on the addition of blinkers sparking significant improvement. Well beaten at a huge price on her comeback; Fly Pass looks her trainer's best shout.
6th	1 6th (1) (10/3 -21%) Cuban Harry		3.333333 10/3(-21%)																															(1) Cuban Harry 10/3, 2/1, very good second of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 9 days ago, just failing. Should make a bold bid to go one better here. More amenable on comeback, minus any aids having been gelded; holds leading claims.
7th	4 7th (4) (4/1 -33%) Viridian		4 4/1(-33%)																															(4) Viridian 4/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fourth of 12 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 50/1) when last seen in November (gelded since). Needs to improve now handicapping but he's in good hands and that's entirely possible. Been gelded; powerful yard hasn't got going for the year; watch the market.
8th	2 8th (2) (7/1 +0%) Fengari		7 7/1(+0%)																															(2) Fengari 7/1, Lightly-raced winner. Good sixth of 10 in handicap (9/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 25 days ago, left with too much to do. One for the shortlist. Didn't progress from a successful debut last season but her comeback run was encouraging.

FENGARI caught the eye when not getting the clearest of runs and staying on late at Wolverhampton on her most recent start, and the fact she scored on debut at Leicester last year bodes well on her return to the turf. The form of her stable is another plus and she is narrowly preferred to unexposed handicap debutant Viridian and Cuban Harry, who was unlucky not to get off the mark at Wolverhampton when coming from off the pace to finish a narrow second.

Having caught the eye at Wolverhampton where she was considerately handled, FENGARI could be the way to go. She is entitled to come on for that run (first appearance for seven months) and she is probably capable of better than her current mark implies. Mister Mojito has been knocking on the door and looks sure to be involved once again, while Cuban Harry and handicap debutant Viridian also enter calculations.

This looks good for CUBAN HARRY (nap), who settled much better on his comeback when an unlucky loser. Mister Mojito is next best.

Off 149 days. Modest on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. Others more persuasive. Well beaten in all three AW starts and returns from a break with a bit to prove..
6th	4 6th (4) (10/1 -43%) Pink Jazz		10 10/1(-43%)																															(4) Pink Jazz 10/1, C&D winner. Fifth of 8 in handicap (9/1) at this course (8.6f) 33 days ago. Dropped another 2 lb since latest outing and not discounted. In the grip of the handicapper since an easy win at Kempton last year but not written off..
7th	8 7th (8) (12/1 +0%) Kraken Diamond		12 12/1(+0%)																															(8) Kraken Diamond 12/1, Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap (7/1) at this course (8.6f) 9 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Likely to bounce back. Better efforts would give him claims but none of those have been at this track..
8th	6 8th (6) (5/2 +25%) Storm Asset		2.5 5/2(+25%)																															(6) Storm Asset 5/2, C&D winner. Creditable second of 11 in minor event at Southwell (8.1f, 11/10) 18 days ago. Should be involved once again. C&D winner who has gone close on his last two starts; big player from an unchanged mark..

Locked N' Loaded hasn't won for two years but he has been knocking on the door and was a little unlucky not to score when narrowly touched off over a furlong shorter here last week. Tony Carroll's charge should go well again off a 1lb higher mark, while Storm Asset has also filled the runner-up berth the last twice. It could pay to take a chance on HIGH COURT JUDGE, who was doing his best work at the finish when a one-length third off this mark over the extended mile here last month and he should relish this extra furlong.

LOCKED N' LOADED has been in good order and shaped better than the result having endured a wide trip when second at this course last time, so he takes marginal preference over stablemate Storm Asset, who has also been running with consistency lately. Damoiseau is another one to consider for all that she's not as reliable as the aforementioned pair.

Tony Carrol may hold the key to this with three runners, the pick of which might be STORM ASSET.

1	12 1st (12) (28/1 -56%) Boadicea Belle		28 28/1(-56%)																															(12) Boadicea Belle 28/1, Unreliable type. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Last of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, 20/1). Off 169 days. Far from a reliable proposition these days. Three-time Polytrack winner at Chelmsford, lost her way last year, hard to fancy.
2	9 2nd (9) (4/1 +33%) Cousin Shay		4 4/1(+33%)																															(9) Cousin Shay 4/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 7/1, respectable fourth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago. Should give another good account. C&D winner in January; only 2lb above that winning mark, fair fourth here on latest.
3	2 3rd (2) (10/3 +17%) Lauroline		3.333333 10/3(+17%)																															(2) Lauroline 10/3, Creditable seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D (7/2) 29 days ago. Drops in grade and merits consideration. Placed in three consecutive maidens, has a bit to find judged on handicap debut effort.
4	4 4th (4) (11/1 +0%) Comfort Line		11 11/1(+0%)																															(4) Comfort Line 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in December. 6¾ lengths tenth of 14 to Bright Dick in handicap at this C&D (9/1) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Could return to form. Down the field in race won by Bright Dick last week, form has been uneven here lately.
5th	3 5th (3) (7/2 +13%) Bright Dick		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(3) Bright Dick 7/2, 20/1, won 14-runner handicap at this C&D 8 days ago, readily. Made the breakthrough here last week, not certain to cope with the burden of 7lb extra.
6th	6 6th (6) (16/1 -300%) Bride Tree		16 16/1(-300%)																															(6) Bride Tree 16/1, 22/1, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at this course (7f), shaken up to assert. Off 122 days. Solid claims if he's tuned up on the back of that break. Successful over 7f here in December, may be progressive enough to feature again.
7th	5 7th (5) (15/2 -88%) Shining Aitch		7.5 15/2(-88%)																															(5) Shining Aitch 15/2, Visored for 1st time, improved on recent efforts to win 14-runner handicap (16/1) at this C&D 8 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. Still on a feasible mark and merits consideration. Beat Comfort Line in November and gained another course success last week, up 6lb for that.
8th	1 8th (1) (25/1 -108%) Hijo De La Luna		25 25/1(-108%)																															(1) Hijo De La Luna 25/1, 33/1, first run since leaving G. M. Lyons when sixteenth of 23 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy) 26 days ago. Has a bit to prove. Well held when favourite for a pair of handicaps at this venue last autumn.
9th	8 9th (8) (33/1 +18%) Un Bacio Ancora		33 33/1(+18%)																															(8) Un Bacio Ancora 33/1, Course winner. One win from 35 Flat runs. 5 lengths ninth of 14 to Shining Aitch in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 8 days ago. Others make more appeal. Sole win in 35 starts came in a 6f claimer, shown nothing in three starts at this trip.
10th	13 10th (13) (20/1 -167%) Lorr's Girl		20 20/1(-167%)																															(13) Lorr's Girl 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (6f, 66/1) 29 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Not fully exposed and worth considering. Much improved when a staying-on fourth over 6f here on handicap debut, of some interest.
11th	7 11th (7) (7/1 +42%) Spirit Of Paradise		7 7/1(+42%)																															(7) Spirit Of Paradise 7/1, Eleventh of 14 in handicap (14/1) at this course (12f) 29 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. First run for yard after leaving G. A. Kingston. Worth monitoring in the betting starting out for new yard. Not the most consistent filly but could be interesting on her first start for Noel Meade.
12th	14 12th (14) (40/1 -21%) Ciantov		40 40/1(-21%)																															(14) Ciantov 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (7f) 29 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time, cheekpieces on 1st time. Easy to look elsewhere. Needs to step on what he has shown in two visits to this venue, headgear added now.
13th	10 13th (10) (150/1 -127%) Tack		150 150/1(-127%)																															(10) Tack 150/1, 100/1 and blinkered for 1st time, twenty second of 23 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy) 26 days ago, very slowly away. Hard to make a case for. Well beaten in a claimer here on yard debut, big price when in rear in a Curragh handicap.

SHINING AITCH responded well to the first-time visor when obliging over C&D last week and could go in again. James Ryan wasn't able to claim in that apprentice race, but can claim 5lb in this contest, which almost offsets the 6lb rise that Shining Aitch received for winning. Bright Dick got off the mark at the 18th time of asking last week and is likely to be involved at the business end. Bride Tree sprung a 22/1 surprise over 7f at this track in December, but has been off since.

BRIGHT DICK arrived with a strong late run to score with something in hand over C&D 8 days ago and he's still nicely treated based on the pick of his form, so he gets the nod over Lauroline, Shining Aitch, who won the second division of that race. Lauroline is another one to consider down in grade.

There could be more improvement to come from BRIDE TREE, making only her second Dundalk appearance when scoring over 7f in December.

1	2 1st (2) (17/2 -21%) Twilight Fun		8.5 17/2(-21%)																															(2) Twilight Fun 17/2, Lightly-raced winner. Creditable sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 7/1) 47 days ago. Improvement needed on this turf debut. Goes beyond 5f for the first time on his turf debut and will need to settle better.
2	3 2nd (3) (11/8 +72%) Hover On The Wind		1.375 11/8(+72%)																															(3) Hover On The Wind 11/8, Sixth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 4/1). Off 144 days and back up in trip here, he will be a big player off this reduced mark if able to get back on track. Regressive; tonight's career-low mark should be within range but other make greater appeal.
3	1 3rd (1) (17/2 -55%) Northcliff		8.5 17/2(-55%)																															(1) Northcliff 17/2, One win from 26 Flat runs. Winner at Wolverhampton in February. 5/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 22 days ago. Each-way chance. Needs more back on turf and could probably have done without the drying weather.
4	6 4th (6) (14/1 +0%) Zina Colada		14 14/1(+0%)																															(6) Zina Colada 14/1, C&D winner. 14/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f). Off 148 days and some of these are more appealing. Yard still to get going for the year; could well be all or nothing again back from a break.
5th	4 5th (4) (6/1 +14%) Eight Mile		6 6/1(+14%)																															(4) Eight Mile 6/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year. Respectable fourth of 12 in handicap (14/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 32 days ago. Back down in trip and cheekpieces on 1st time. Not discounted. Now 2lb below the mark off which he won over C&D last summer; yard in flying form.
6th	7 6th (7) (11/2 -83%) Blue Collar Lad		5.5 11/2(-83%)																															(7) Blue Collar Lad 11/2, Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. 10/11, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at that course (6.1f) 5 days ago, doing too much too soon. Merits consideration. Was pestered when well held off his revised 7lb higher mark on Monday and should do better.
7th	8 7th (8) (10/1 +0%) Porfin		10 10/1(+0%)																															(8) Porfin 10/1, Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 13/2) 25 days ago. Place possibilities. Struggled over the winter but hasn't seen out 7f the last twice and is on a handy mark.
8th	9 8th (9) (22/1 -120%) Hurricane Kiko		22 22/1(-120%)																															(9) Hurricane Kiko 22/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 4/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 35 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Money for him on the AW last time but finished well held; hard to back him after that.
9th	10 9th (10) (33/1 -371%) Primrose Maid		33 33/1(-371%)																															(10) Primrose Maid 33/1, Course winner. 11/2, last of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, heavy). Entitled to come on for the run following 6 months off. Nothing to suggest she's best caught fresh or that 6f on drying ground will be ideal.

EIGHT MILE was beaten two lengths into fourth behind a 100/1 winner over a mile at Southwell and he makes his return to the turf off a 1lb lower rating. George Scott's four-year-old was successful off a 2lb higher figure over C&D last summer and looks ready to strike again. Hover On The Wind drops to his lowest career mark after being well held at Chelmsford in November and, with Silvestre De Sousa booked, he could have a say. Of the remainder, Twilight Fun makes the most appeal.

The vote goes to HOVER ON THE WIND, who was a good third on his seasonal reappearance at Doncaster off a 13 lb higher mark last term and will hopefully be ready to roll on his return to action this time round, too. Blue Collar Lad will be a threat if ridden with a bit more restraint than at Wolverhampton recently, while Eight Mile and Northcliff should both be in the shake-up.

George Scott has been among the winners and EIGHT MILE, a C&D winner last summer off 2lb higher, is taken to add to the tally.

10	10 (10) (40/1 +39%) Baileys Polka Dot		40 40/1(+39%)																															(10) Baileys Polka Dot 40/1, Dual winner at up to 5.5f in France. 80/1 and tongue strap on, well below best back from 4 months off when last of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) on UK debut 55 days ago, ridden 2f out and finding little. Needs to leave that well behind to figure on back of wind surgery. Two wins in France last year but well beaten at 80-1 on h'cap debut; had wind op since.
1	8 1st (8) (7/1 -27%) Ziggy's Dream		7 7/1(-27%)																															(8) Ziggy's Dream 7/1, Inns Of Court filly who tasted success 3 times as a juvenile, posting a career-best display when landing 10-runner C&D nursery on final start in November. Returns with yard amongst the winners and she's worth a second look. Two C&D wins last year, including a Class 4 handicap when last seen in November; chance.
2	9 2nd (9) (11/5 +56%) Key To Cotai		2.2 11/5(+56%)																															(9) Key To Cotai 11/5, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good second of 10 in nursery at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) in September, staying on. Absent since but she remains lightly raced and she's one to consider from a handy draw. 5f winner at two on heavy; best run last year came over 7f and with headgear tried.
3	11 3rd (11) (17/2 +47%) Dapperling		8.5 17/2(+47%)																															(11) Dapperling 17/2, Off the mark in straightforward fashion at Lingfield (5f, turf) last summer prior to an excellent second in Super Sprint at Newbury. Not in same form in trio of starts thereafter but no surprise to see a better showing back from a break. Some useful 5f form last summer but she ended her 2yo campaign quietly.
4	3 4th (3) (28/1 -155%) Woolhampton		28 28/1(-155%)																															(3) Woolhampton 28/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 13/2) in November, racing off the pace and plugging on final 1f. Has gone well fresh previously but another with a tricky draw to overcome. Had some strong handicap form last summer; C&D winner; tricky draw on her return.
5th	2 5th (2) (2/1 +43%) Radio Goo Goo		2 2/1(+43%)																															(2) Radio Goo Goo 2/1, C&D winner. Five wins from 12 runs last year. 17/2, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 12 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Shortlist material from good draw. Back to a good mark and ran well from the front at Kempton 12 days ago; strong claims.
6th	5 6th (5) (12/1 -33%) Lady Pink Rose		12 12/1(-33%)																															(5) Lady Pink Rose 12/1, Lightly-raced winner. Hooded for 1st time, second of 3 in minor event at Musselburgh (5f, soft) in September, shaken up 2f out and keeping on. Absent since but switch to handicaps rates a plus now and worth noting if the market speaks in her favour. Some useful 2yo form but likely improvement will be needed to make a winning h'cap debut.
7th	7 7th (7) (12/1 -9%) Ashwiyaa		12 12/1(-9%)																															(7) Ashwiyaa 12/1, 7/1, first run since leaving M. D. O'Callaghan when third of 6 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 13 days ago. Back up in trip. Tongue strap on 1st time and she may well be sharper with that run under her belt. Looked rusty on recent stable/handicap debut; tongue tie now added; can do better.
8th	4 8th (4) (20/1 +0%) Stars On Fire		20 20/1(+0%)																															(4) Stars On Fire 20/1, Dual winner around 5f in the US for Wesley Ward. Proved easy to back and never figured when eighth of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Chelmsford City (5f) on UK debut 30 days ago. This should reveal more back up in trip. Two wins for Wesley Ward in the US last year; low-key stable debut last month; risky.
9th	6 9th (6) (25/1 -56%) Silent Flame		25 25/1(-56%)																															(6) Silent Flame 25/1, Winner at Windsor (5.1f, heavy) in May and similar form when making the frame next 2 starts. Not in groove thereafter, below form sixth of 10 in handicap back at aforementioned venue (6f, good to soft) when last seen in October. This run may well bring her on. Five-time turf winner; yet to shine on AW and best watched back from six months off.

Lady Pink Rose and Key To Cotai have leading claims on their turf form and must be respected now tried on the all-weather for the first time, but they are also making their seasonal debuts and it may be safer to side with the match-fit STAR OF LADY M. David O'Meara's filly gained her third Lingfield success since November when scoring over 5f last week and although she is 4lb higher now, she mixed in hot company as a juvenile and the handicapper may not have caught up with her just yet.

RADIO GOO GOO has eased in the weights and dropped the hint she's ready to strike when third at Kempton (6f) 12 days ago, doing well under the circumstances given the gallop she set. David Evans' filly gets the nod to come out on top from her handy draw, with Key To Cotai and Star of Lady M also considered.

Well-handicapped RADIO GOO GOO (nap) looks primed to go well from stall 1 and she can win by getting the better of Star Of Lady M.

1	8 1st (8) (7/2 +0%) Port Fairy		3.5 7/2(+0%)																															(8) Port Fairy 7/2, Once-raced filly. 15/2, seventh of 11 in maiden at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) on debut. Off 179 days. Up in trip. Could improve significantly and notable that Ryan Moore takes the ride, so worth watching in the betting. Failed to make a significant impression at Gowran on only start at two, stable selected.
2	6 2nd (6) (6/1 -100%) Lady Doris		6 6/1(-100%)																															(6) Lady Doris 6/1, Promising sort. Fourth of 13 in maiden at this course (8f, 50/1) on debut, met some trouble. Off 169 days. Significantly up in trip. Should have more to offer. Third in barrier trial here and a respectable fourth of 13 on official debut in October.
3	4 3rd (4) (5/4 +17%) Evening Blossom		1.25 5/4(+17%)																															(4) Evening Blossom 5/4, Promising type. Third of 16 in maiden (7/1) at the Curragh (7f, soft) on debut. Off 6 months. Open to improvement and, with the longer trip likely to suit, she makes most appeal. Shaped like a future winner when third over 7f at the Curragh last October, strong chance.
4	10 4th (10) (8/1 +64%) Presence		8 8/1(+64%)																															(10) Presence 8/1, Twice-raced filly. Fourth of 13 in maiden at this course (7f, 20/1) 22 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Fourth behind an odds-on winner over 7f here last month, seems likely to get this trip.
5th	7 5th (7) (6/1 +20%) Opaque		6 6/1(+20%)																															(7) Opaque 6/1, Ten Sovereigns filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 6f winner Badb. Dam, maiden (should have stayed 1½m), closely related to useful 1¼m-1½m winner (stayed 1¾m) Beach of Falesa. Of obvious interest on debut. Half-sister to Group 2-placed 6f juvenile winner Badb, Ballydoyle second string here.
6th	5 6th (5) (40/1 -43%) Jlow		40 40/1(-43%)																															(5) Jlow 40/1, Twice-raced filly. 100/1, fourth of 13 in maiden at this course (8f) 36 days ago, having to pick way through. Significantly up in trip. Needs to do more. Stepped up considerably from a poor turf run with a fair fourth at this venue last month.
7th	9 7th (9) (50/1 -79%) Preparations		50 50/1(-79%)																															(9) Preparations 50/1, €10,000 yearling, Mastercraftsman filly. Sister to 1¼m/11f winner Sigismundus Rex. Dam, maiden (stayed 11.5f), half-sister to smart winner up to 10.4f Master Carpenter (by Mastercraftsman). Sister to a Polish winner, dam nine-race maiden, not an obvious candidate for a debut win.
8th	11 8th (11) (50/1 -488%) Straya		50 50/1(-488%)																															(11) Straya 50/1, Thrice-raced filly. Seventh of 12 in maiden at this C&D (14/1) 8 days ago. Others make more appeal. Some promise on turf at two, concerning that she did not seem to stay over C&D last week.
9th	1 9th (1) (100/1 -355%) Billie Frechette		100 100/1(-355%)																															(1) Billie Frechette 100/1, Once-raced filly. Eighth of 9 in maiden (40/1) at Naas (8f, heavy) on debut 20 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Big price and ran green on debut at Naas, considerable improvement required.
10th	2 10th (2) (20/1 -11%) Chick Flick		20 20/1(-11%)																															(2) Chick Flick 20/1, Twice-raced filly. 80/1, fifth of 9 in maiden at Naas (8f, heavy) 20 days ago. Significantly up in trip. More required if she's to seriously feature. Shaped well at Naas despite suffering some interference, this longer trip should suit.
11th	3 11th (3) (200/1 -150%) Ellie B		200 200/1(-150%)																															(3) Ellie B 200/1, Once-raced filly. Last of 14 in maiden at this course (8f, 80/1) on debut 50 days ago, very slowly away. Significantly up in trip. Slowly away and never in contention on debut, can be left out of calculations.

EVENING BLOSSOM showed plenty of potential in third on debut in a Curragh maiden last October. She had three subsequent maiden winners in behind that day to bolster the form and she holds an Irish Oaks entry. Aidan O'Brien runs two horses in newcomer Opaque and the once-raced Port Fairy, who is partnered by Ryan Moore. Port Fairy is another Irish Oaks entry who is highly likely to come on from a seventh place on heavy ground at Gowran Park in October, while the market should be informative about Ten Sovereigns filly Opaque. Presence didn't run badly in fourth behind an odds-on winner over a shorter trip here.

EVENING BLOSSOM shaped well on debut 6 months ago and promises to be helped by the step up in trip, so she's preferred to Port Fairy, who is likely to leave her own initial effort well behind and is preferred by Ryan Moore. Opague is a notable newcomer on pedigree.

This looks like a good opportunity for EVENING BLOSSOM to deliver on the promise of her debut third on turf last October

2	2 2nd (2) (10/3 +72%) Dion Baker		3.333333 10/3(+72%)																															(2) Dion Baker 10/3, One win (here) from 31 Flat runs. Last of 15 in handicap (14/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 15 days ago. Latest run is best ignored but whether he'll have the toe for this remains to be seen.

4	8 4th (8) (9/2 -13%) One Hart		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(8) One Hart 9/2, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable third of 9 in handicap (15/2) at Bath (5f, heavy) 6 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Good chance back over 6f off same mark. Just behind Alafdhal last week; like that one he'd have preferred the rain to keep coming.
5th	3 5th (3) (2/1 +50%) Special Mayson		2 2/1(+50%)																															(3) Special Mayson 2/1, Course winner. Creditable second of 12 in handicap (9/2) at Newmarket (6f, good) when last seen. Off 7 months. Yard can ready them and good chance if ready to roll. Ran well first time out the past two seasons, each time off a slightly higher mark; player.
6th	5 6th (5) (5/1 +0%) Twayblade		5 5/1(+0%)																															(5) Twayblade 5/1, 2/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) when last seen, just holding on. Off 10 months. More needed on return but goes well here. Two C&D wins from the front but hasn't achieved much first time out previously.
7th	10 7th (10) (22/1 -120%) Autumn Flight		22 22/1(-120%)																															(10) Autumn Flight 22/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 5 days ago. Others more persuasive. Getting on and lacks consistency now, including in five runs back with his old yard.
8th	11 8th (11) (150/1 -500%) Tilsworth Turf		150 150/1(-500%)																															(11) Tilsworth Turf 150/1, 22/1, last of 7 in minor event at Chelmsford City (5f) 30 days ago. Back up in trip. String of ordinary efforts thus far and is very hard to make a case for.

Alafdhal is likely to be thereabouts again after filling the runner-up berth in heavy conditions at Bath and he goes off an unchanged mark. However, SPECIAL MAYSON makes his return to action after being pipped at Newmarket in August last year and Pam Sly's six-year-old goes well fresh so could be well placed to record his fourth career victory. Dual C&D winner Twayblade holds an obvious chance too.

ONE HART took a bit too long to hit top gear when a close third at Bath last week and has a good chance off the same mark back up at 6f. Special Mayson and Alafdhal, closely matched with the selection from Bath, are other key players.

This can go to SPECIAL MAYSON, who goes well fresh. Several others would have preferred another furlong or softer ground.

1	1 1st (1) (13/8 +1%) Gogo Yubari		1.625 13/8(+1%)																															(1) Gogo Yubari 13/8, Thrived for new yard and posted a career-best when winning 6-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 8 days ago, leading final 100 yds. Expected to be bang there again. Three Lingfield wins this year, picking up well over 5f last week; big chance up 2lb.
2	6 2nd (6) (9/1 -38%) Lady Bouquet		9 9/1(-38%)																															(6) Lady Bouquet 9/1, Winner over C&D in October and good placed efforts on 2 of her 3 starts since, second of 12 in nursery (4/1) at Chelmsford City (5f) in November. Re-united with Hollie Doyle for return to action and she's not out of things. Made all over C&D last October; second in 2 of 3 runs since; returns from five months off.
3	2 3rd (2) (3/1 -9%) Musical Diva		3 3/1(-9%)																															(2) Musical Diva 3/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in January. Creditable second of 7 in handicap (10/1) at this course (6.1f) 11 days ago. Can give a good account again returned to the minimum trip. Two wins in Jan, including C&D; form has levelled off since but she's still a contender.
4	4 4th (4) (14/1 +44%) Pannonica		14 14/1(+44%)																															(4) Pannonica 14/1, Maiden who again ran below pick of 2-y-o form when tenth of 11 in handicap (50/1) at Kempton (7f) in January, weakening over 1f out. Needs to bounce back returning from 3 months off. Some promise on turf last summer; no show in two handicaps; drops in trip; check betting.
5th	3 5th (3) (13/2 +13%) Ten Club		6.5 13/2(+13%)																															(3) Ten Club 13/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 33/1, seventh of 11 in minor event at this course (6.1f) in December. Gelded subsequently and rates a likely improver now handicapping for all this drop in trip may not suit ideally. Yet to build on debut promise but might now handicapping having been gelded; down in trip.
6th	5 6th (5) (5/1 -11%) So Obsessed		5 5/1(-11%)																															(5) So Obsessed 5/1, Winner at Chelmsford City in March. Below form third of 11 in handicap (13/2) at Southwell (5f) 18 days ago, headed inside final 1f and no extra. Not out of things again from revised mark. Easy win in a weak race at Chelmsford last month (5f); fair third latest; each-way shout.
7th	8 7th (8) (33/1 +18%) Belvoir Kitten		33 33/1(+18%)																															(8) Belvoir Kitten 33/1, Poor maiden who again offered little on second start for new yard when sixth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 18 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Unplaced in all ten starts; not easily recommended.

SMOOTH SILESIE (fifth) finished two lengths behind So Obsessed (third) over this trip at Southwell last month, but she gets a 2lb swing in the weights this time around. The three-year-old could overturn that form as So Obsessed could face a more contested lead on this occasion. Gogo Yubari just got up at Lingfield last time and it would be no surprise to see her get involved off a 2lb higher rating, while Lady Bouquet is another to note on her return.

GOGO YUBARI has improved upon joining the Dylan Cunha stable, gaining her third victory since the turn of the year when winning a 6-runner Lingfield handicap 8 days ago, and she's expected to make another bold bid from 2 lb higher. Musical Diva, back at the minimum trip. and So Obsessed are others to consider.

Musical Diva is solid at this level but a 2lb rise for GOGO YUBARI's recent Lingfield win may underestimate her.

1	6 1st (6) (11/10 +63%) London City		1.1 11/10(+63%)																															(6) London City 11/10, Twice-raced colt who failed to match debut form when sixth of 8 in maiden (9/4) at Tipperary (9f, good to soft) in September. However, in excellent hands and no surprise to see a better showing up in trip for return. Justify colt didn't live up to market expectations at two; switch to AW could suit.
2	7 2nd (7) (20/1 +0%) Ozark Daze		20 20/1(+0%)																															(7) Ozark Daze 20/1, Twice-raced gelding. 150/1, 19¼ lengths last of 6 to Deepone in Beresford Stakes at the Curragh (1m, soft) in September. Gelded subsequently but handicaps could well be more his bag moving forward. Last ran in a Group 2; gelded since and back in maiden company for AW debut.
3	3 3rd (3) (7/1 -100%) Ephesus		7 7/1(-100%)																															(3) Ephesus 7/1, Galileo colt. Closely related to 3 winners, including smart winner up to 1¼m Cayenne Pepper and useful winner up to 1¾m Howth. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner who stayed 1¼m. Well worthy of a second look on debut for leading yard. Nicely-bred newcomer but appears the Ballydoyle second-string.
4	4 4th (4) (5/4 -4%) Huxley		1.25 5/4(-4%)																															(4) Huxley 5/4, Lightly-raced colt. 11/4, respectable second of 9 in maiden at this C&D 18 days ago, no match for an above-average prospect. Ought to be firmly in the mix again. Recent C&D second a solid start to the campaign; sure to be thereabouts.
5th	1 5th (1) (33/1 -65%) Albali		33 33/1(-65%)																															(1) Albali 33/1, 40,000 gns yearling, Zoustar colt. Half-brother to 1¼m winner Bush Rose. Dam useful French 2-y-o 1m winner who stayed 11f. Zoustar colt cost 40,000gns; newcomer probably best watched.
6th	5 6th (5) (125/1 -468%) Kilbarry Jack		125 125/1(-468%)																															(5) Kilbarry Jack 125/1, Twice-raced gelding. Thirteenth of 15 in maiden (50/1) at the Curragh (7f, heavy) 26 days ago. Likely type for handicaps. Well held both starts last month including over C&D; best waited for in handicaps.

Justify colt LONDON CITY could leave previous efforts in the rear-view mirror as he embarks on his three-year-old campaign. He was a short price on both starts last season, when fifth at the Curragh and sixth in Tipperary. On both occasions, there was cut in the ground and he should appreciate going up in trip on this better surface. He holds two Derby entries (Epsom and Curragh). Huxley sets the standard with a mark of 84. He has the advantage of being experienced on the Polytrack having finished runner-up on his last two starts, including on seasonal reappearance last month. London City's stablemate Ephesus makes his debut and this Galileo colt should be checked for market strength.

HUXLEY has showed more than enough in a handful of starts to date to think a race of this nature is well within his grasp and he can put his experience to good use and come out on top. The Aidan O'Brien trained-pair, London City and Ephesus are others expected to be firmly in the mix.

Some of Ballydoyle's short-priced maidens have been turned over of late so LONDON CITY is selected here with a degree of caution

Yet to beat a rival in trio of Flat starts for present yard and best watched back from a break/stepping back up significantly in trip. Didn't beat a rival in 3 course runs in late 2023; hard to recommend despite reduced mark.
2	2 2nd (2) (9/4 -29%) Moon Over The Sea		2.25 9/4(-29%)																															(2) Moon Over The Sea 9/4, C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year. Latest win here in March. Creditable third of 8 in handicap (7/2) at this C&D 11 days ago, progress 2f out and staying on. Has good chance on form. Third from off the pace in steadily-run C&D race 11 days ago; return of Rossa Ryan a big +.
3	6 3rd (6) (11/4 +31%) Red Dwarf		2.75 11/4(+31%)																															(6) Red Dwarf 11/4, Good second of 9 in minor event at this C&D (4/1) 28 days ago, keeping on without matching the winner. Remains lightly raced at this sort of trip and not out of things returned to handicaps. Placed in classified events the last twice, over C&D last time; each-way claims once again.
4	3 4th (3) (13/2 -63%) Twoforthegutter		6.5 13/2(-63%)																															(3) Twoforthegutter 13/2, Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (14f, 5/2) 9 days ago, driven over 2f out and plugging on. Refitting of cheekpieces may put an extra edge on him. 12-race maiden; effective over C&D but beaten fav over 1m6f last week; not ruled out.
5th	1 5th (1) (3/1 +10%) Lord Torranaga		3 3/1(+10%)																															(1) Lord Torranaga 3/1, Course winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at this course (14f) in October, headed 2f out and no extra last ½f. Drop back in trip will hold no fears and one to consider back from a break. On a losing run but turned in numerous solid efforts last year; contender at this level.
6th	5 6th (5) (9/1 -13%) Miss Sligo		9 9/1(-13%)																															(5) Miss Sligo 9/1, C&D winner. 15/2, last of 9 in minor event at this C&D 28 days ago, headed under 2f out and weakening. Not out of things on pick of form. C&D winner who ran well twice in February; below par since but capable of a revival.
7th	7 7th (7) (28/1 -40%) Eaux De Vie		28 28/1(-40%)																															(7) Eaux De Vie 28/1, Below form fifth of 9 in handicap (25/1) at this course (9.5f) 11 days ago. Back up in trip. Ran well over C&D in January but last two efforts disappointing and remains opposable.

MOON OVER THE SEA hit the frame in this grade over course and distance earlier in the month when staying on late. The son of Sea The Moon has Rossa Ryan taking over the reins, who was on board for his latest victory and he ought to go very close. Lord Torranaga rarely runs a bad race and was last seen finishing fourth over 1m6f here in October, so he can go well on his return to the fray, while Red Dwarf is another to watch out for.

MOON OVER THE SEA has held his form well since the turn of the year, again finishing off his race well when third over C&D 11 days ago, and he looks sure to go well again re-united with Rossa Ryan. Lord Torranaga and Red Dwarf are fancied to pose the chief threats.

Rossa Ryan's record on MOON OVER THE SEA reads 215311 and the pair can team up successfully in this weak race.

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.
