TRALEE HILLS bounced back to form with a comfortable success at Bath in April and, given a break since, Simon Hodgson's charge can notch up a second win in this contest, having prevailed under Serena Brotherton in 2021. The nine-year-old may have too much for fellow C&D scorer Captain Haddock and Tessy Lad, who has won over this trip before and shared the spoils over 1m2f at Newbury last time out.

LUCKY'S DREAM pulled clear of the remainder when a good second at Newbury last week and makes fair appeal off the same mark. Tessy Lad and Tralee Hills head the list of dangers in what looks a competitive opener.

Several need to be taken very seriously and the ground could be important. BUG BOY looks tempting on the form he showed last summer.

VAHA has shown marked improvement with each start, and he looks the one to beat if building upon an excellent effort at Lingfield when narrowly denied on his first go at this trip. Cloud Free ran a stormer on debut when second at Beverley and he must enter calculations along with Sahara Kitten, who finished a length and a half behind him in fourth on the Westwood.

VAHA has improved with each start and is taken to open his account at the fourth time of asking. Cloud Free and Sahara Kitten should have learnt plenty from their debut efforts and are much respected.

Cloud Free finished ahead of SAHARA KITTEN at Beverley when they made their debuts but the last-named is taken to turn the tables.

LIL GUFF is in a rich vein of form at present, despite her winning run coming to an end at Haydock last month. William Buick getting back on board is a big plus, though, and the step up in trip has the potential to eke out further improvement, with the unexposed Havana Pusey looking best placed to chase her home. Indian Creak and Society Lion have the form to get involved as well.

This looks wide open and with that in mind it could just pay to take a chance on TYGER BAY. He shaped better than the bare result on his latest outing at Wolverhampton 30 days ago and, from an easing mark, it would come as no surprise to see a good showing, particularly if any rain arrives. Lil Guff is enjoying a good campaign and is feared along with Rocking Ends. Havana Pusey also remains the type to do better.

Society Lion is in good form and can go well but LIL GUFF (nap) was in the form of her life last month and she can go in again.

LITTLE BOY BLUE showed a good attitude when fending off a subsequent easy winner at Chepstow and with a 3lb rise deemed lenient, he gets the vote to follow up. Marlay Park has a fine record at this unique track, winning here three times, and emerged with plenty of credit when placed in a 0-100 handicap over C&D most recently. Dropped 1lb in the ratings since, he must enter calculations, while Zero Carbon and Woodstock also merit consideration.

MARLAY PARK again ran well at this course when third here a month ago and, back down in grade, he can build on that to record a fourth C&D success. Heading the list of dangers is Zero Carbon, who bounced back to his best when scoring at Kempton last time, while Little Boy Blue can also give another good account.

Course regular Marlay Park is greatly respected but ZERO CARBON is preferred on the back of a snug win at Kempton.

AT LIBERTY gamely beat a useful yardstick in Arranmore at Haydock and although he hasn't got the most consistent profile, Michael Bell's gelding should remain competitive off a 3lb higher mark if arriving in the same mood. Similar comments apply to Eklil but, again, he comes here in winning form and appears to hold leading claims. Aidan Keeley will likely be taking his time on the keen-going Nonsuch Lad and that pairing could run into a place.

It could be worth chancing WANDERING ROCKS, who is now 8 lb lower compared to when beaten less than 3 lengths on his reappearance at Kempton and this drop back in trip looks a good move having struggled at the business end in 1½m handicaps since. Last-time-out winners Eklil and At Liberty are live dangers, while Nonsuch Lad is another to consider. Also worthy of mention is Dotties Star, who hasn't shown much in maiden/novice company but is likely to be seen in a better light now handicapping.

Top of the list is AT LIBERTY, who has run well in the big majority of his handicaps, followed by Wonder Starelzaam and Eklil.

CLOUDY ROSE will arrive brimming with confidence following three tenacious victories in a row and, despite a further 3lb rise, she looks the one to beat. John Berry's mare has yet to tackle Epsom but having a record of two from two around Brighton - another undulating track - is certainly encouraging. Lunar Shadow has every chance if she can translate her recent all-weather form to the turf, while Iconic Mover and Angels Roc are others to note.

ICONIC MOVER was beaten by the four-timer seeking Cloudy Rose at Brighton last time, but there was very little between the pair on that occasion and the small swing at the weights here may be enough for Pat Phelan's gelding to turn the tables. Ship To Shore finally got off the mark when scoring at Southwell last time and can complete the placings.

Having discovered the winning habit and shown a versatility regarding the ground, CLOUDY ROSE has a fair chance to win again.
