SOUND JANET kept on well over the extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton on her racecourse bow last month, and the daughter of Nathaniel is expected to score now upped in trip. The hood is a slight concern, though, and Tribal Act might be the one to exploit any chinks in her armour. Fifth having been slowly away over C&D on his debut, the gelded son of Sea The Stars should be more streetwise. Market support for newcomer Staffordshire should be noted.

SOUND JANET made a good start behind a promising winner at Wolverhampton last month and could be the way to go with improvement on the way. Tribal Act likewise shaped really well first time up here 5 weeks ago and will progress. Newcomer Staffordshire is interesting.

The main form contenders are SOUND JANET and Tribal Act, while newcomer Staffordshire is interesting.

The money has been down for KAARANAH on his last two starts and, although the seven-year-old has yet to reward his supporters, this might be the time to catch him. John Butler's gelding has been weak in the finish over 1m2f and the previous C&D winner looks set to relish a drop to the mile. Beauty Generation, who was narrowly denied over track and trip a fortnight ago, is perhaps the main threat, ahead of Fihrayn and Chourmo.

BEAUTY GENERATION confirmed he's down to a good mark when going down narrowly in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago. He's fancied to make the breakthrough in handicaps, possibly at the chief expense of Classic Speed and Enpassant. Kaaranah is another to note, particularly if strong in the betting.

Off a workable mark in the retained cheekpieces, BEAUTY GENERATION can build on his latest effort. Classic Speed is second pick.

Chemical sets the standard with an official rating of 78, but he's had chances and hopes appear to be pinned on the first-time visor having a positive effect. Night Of Thunder colt Zeus Olympios makes obvious appeal in a race of this nature, but fellow newcomer ANCIENT POWER gets the nod. The 28,000gns purchase looks set to relish this initial test of stamina and it would come as no surprise were he up to the task.

This could go to a newcomer, with ZEUS OLYMPIOS preferred to Ancient Power before market clues. Excuses were hard to come by for Chemical's short-priced defeat at Wolverhampton but he did run well twice in strong C&D events last summer and might not be far away back here.

The form choice is CHEMICAL, while Zeus Olympios looks the pick of the newcomers. Check the betting for further guidance.

NEXT TRICK is competitively weighted in comparison to what she achieved during her time in Ireland and, having posted an encouraging effort on her debut run for Archie Watson when third over 1m here last week, the daughter of Bated Breath makes considerable appeal dropping back a furlong with new headgear tried. Mammy, a winner over 7f off 2lb lower at Chelmsford 13 days ago, and Capuchinero rate the pick of the remainder.

MAMMY made a winning return to action after 4 months off at Chelmsford just under a fortnight ago and, nudged up just 2 lb, Michael Bell's filly is fancied to follow up at the expense of Next Trick, who made a satisfactory start for this yard when third over 1m here last week and has first-time cheekpieces applied. Forever Proud has had a hectic 5 weeks, but she can edge out Midsummer Music for minor honours.

Back down in distance with cheekpieces fitted, NEXT TRICK could well build on her reappearance effort and get off the mark.

MISTY SKY has been running consistently well of late and tops the shortlist in an open event following her success over 7f at Southwell earlier in the month. That said, Art Market was second that day and could get closer now that first-time cheekpieces are added. All of the remainder have claims, but the unexposed Kiniro is the pick of them.

KINIRO showed much improved form to edge out the heavy favourite a touch cosily at Lingfield recently and is taken to follow up on handicap debut with further progress on the cards. Master Technician is a likeable and consistent sort who can give him most to think about.

Handicap debutant KINIRO is taken to show further progress and follow up his Lingfield win. Master Technician is second pick.

Having proved a decisive winner at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day, PARADIAS could be set to follow up. A 4lb higher rating for Alan King's inmate doesn't look insurmountable and he's fancied to repel the hat-trick seeking The Glen Rovers. The latter justified favouritism on his last two appearances at this venue but, while he isn't taken lightly, being 2lb out of the handicap could prove costly. Andaleep and Artistic Star are worth a second look as well.

THE GLEN ROVERS went the right way switched to all-weather last year, gaining a third course victory with a comfortable success in December, and he can continue his progression to add to his tally. Paradias also ended 2024 in good form and is respected with more still to offer on artificial surfaces, while Andaleep is another who enters calculations.

Being 2lb out of the weights isn't ideal but THE GLEN ROVERS is a very persuasive contender in all other respects.

COMTE DE LOIR offered plenty of encouragement when a close-up second on his handicap bow at Southwell eight days ago. The four-year-old ticks plenty of the right boxes on this quick turnaround and, off an unchanged mark, compensation could be on the cards. The biggest threat may emerge from Doublethetrouble, who arrives on the back of a fair fourth on his reappearance at Lingfield, while dual C&D winner Zivaniya warrants respect returning to this venue.

COMTE DE LOIR shaped well amidst inexperience when finishing an excellent second from an unpromising position on handicap debut at Southwell last week and, with further progress anticipated, he's very much the one to beat here. Doublethetrouble, Zivaniya and Percy Jones can do battle for minor honours in the finale.

Unexposed COMTE DE LOIR (nap) is taken to build on his Southwell effort and go one better. Doublethetrouble is second choice.
