This represents a more suitable task for ROCK MELODY to bounce back in and Jim Goldie's four-year-old is taken to build on a fair sixth in a better C&D race earlier this month. She is rated 1lb lower for that run and Jonny Peate knocks off an additional 3lb with his claim, but Ramon Di Loria scored in game fashion at Carlisle last time out and should not be dismissed under a 5lb penalty. Recent C&D winner Refuge should also be noted off 4lb higher.

This can go to ABATE, who has been given a chance by the handicapper and came close at Wetherby last time. Recent winners Refuge and Ramon Di Loria are feared most.

Competitive despite the small field. ABATE ran well last time and is preferred to Ramon De Loria.

Only narrowly denied over C&D earlier this month, first-time blinkers could do the trick for LIEUTENANT RASCAL and the son of U S Navy Flag is fancied to break his maiden at the third time of asking. Swordplay is related to a few smart types and warrants a market check for his racecourse bow, while Grecian Princess and Moyola are others worthy of consideration.

LIEUTENANT RASCAL built on his encouraging debut when a good second here earlier this month and sets the standard on that form. He can open his account. Grecian Princess and Invincible Tiger can also make their presence felt.

Some likely improvers but LIEUTENANT RASCAL sets a fair standard on his C&D form and is preferred to Crack The Kode.

LORD ABAMA lost little in defeat when finishing a close second over this trip at Carlisle earlier this month and the fact he retains the mark from that run makes the four-year-old of significant interest. Thaki kept on for third behind the selection in that aforementioned contest and warrants a market check, but he shaped as though he could need a stiffer stamina test on that occasion. Yaaser drops in distance following a decent third over a mile at Ayr and completes the shortlist.

Preference is for LORD ABAMA, who was clear of the remainder when runner-up at Carlisle last week and remains fairly treated. Gannon Glory can also make his presence felt.

Lord Abama is respected but SWISS ACE drops in class and can give the weight away all round.

WHERE'S JEFF bounced back to winning ways when narrowly holding on over C&D earlier in the month and a mere 2lb rise may not be enough to stop him recording a fourth course victory. That may be at the main expense of comfortable Musselburgh winner Simple Star and Sea Grey, who holds strong claims on the form of his penultimate second at Haydock.

SIMPLE STAR landed a few bets back on the level at Musselburgh at the beginning of the month and a 3 lb rise looks more than fair. Where's Jeff also tasted success last time and is feared most, ahead of Sea Grey, who had excuses at York,

This looks tricky but WHERE'S JEFF has started the season in particularly good heart and may well be the most solid option.

Now that the penny has dropped for BAY DREAM BELIEVER after a taking success at Wetherby, there should be more to come from Mark Walford's charge and the slight rise in distance is expected to suit. Not beaten far on each of his last three starts, Shine On Brendan can give her the most to think about, along with Arranmore, who ran very well on his second start for new connections at Thirsk.

On the back of a disappointing 2022 campaign, ARRANMORE showed a lot more on reappearance under an attacking ride and on that evidence, he's ready to cash in on this much-reduced mark. Strangerontheshore and Shine On Brendan are feared most.

Having made a promising return, ARRANMORE is preferred to the highly respected pair Shine On Brendan and Bay Dream Believer.

HI CLARE rounded off her juvenile season with a sterling effort as she made all to win a nursery over an extended mile at Wolverhampton last September, and has to be taken seriously as she resumes off just 3lb higher. It's an added bonus that she has some previous experience of this particular course and looks to have been set a realistic target for her return. Arkenstaar is an obvious threat, having won over C&D from a 5lb lower mark 12 days ago, while Silk Bird also warrants a second look.

ARKENSTAAR was impressive when scoring over C&D 12 days ago and given the way he went through that race, his revised mark may underestimate him. Tiamat probably has a bigger performance in her and is feared most, with Hi Clare another to consider on reappearance.

Recent C&D winner ARKENSTAAR (nap) probably needs to find more again but the style of that win suggests that he has a good chance.

BREGUET BOY has held his form since joining Keith Dalgleish at the start of March and is key player as he chases a third victory on just his sixth start for the yard. The gelding was better than the face value of his Musselburgh success 16 days ago and a 4lb higher mark is hardly restrictive in this sort of company. Cosa Sara is another on a workable rating who has to feared, while Hot Team, who won this race in 2021, can get competitive off 3lb lower today.

IRON SHERIFF is thriving and is just preferred to Musselburgh-winner Breguet Boy, the pair of them likely to dominate the market. Cosa Sara had excuses last time and could bounce back.

It may well rest between this month's winners BREGUET BOY and Iron Sheriff, with Samurai Sneddz feared most among the rest.
