LITTLE TED is officially 2lb well-in having finished a good second at Nottingham eight days ago, and this looks a good opportunity for Tim Easterby's six-year-old to cash in off his current mark. Chinese Spirit has been knocking on the door recently and is likely to be in the thick of things once again, while Merricourt warrants respect back up to a mile.

CHINESE SPIRIT deserves to get his head in front following a couple of close calls off this mark in recent weeks, and he is taken to do just that. The 9-y-o may have most to fear from Merricourt, while Little Ted and How Bizarre, though not the most reliable of types on balance, are also live contenders in current form.

Tim Easterby's LITTLE TED probably wants further these days but he might get away with a mile in this company.

Agnes Grey sets the form standard and, though it would come as no surprise were she to land the spoils, a chance is taken on POET MASTER. The Lope De Vega gelding, whose dam was successful at Listed level in her juvenile campaign, looks to have all the correct attributes to succeed on his racecourse bow. Belinda Bell can chase the pair home ahead of Sea Girt.

AGNES GREY has some fair form to her name so is fancied to gain a deserved first victory at the chief expense of Karl Burke's Lope De Vega newcomer Poet Master, who needs monitoring in the betting, Belinda Bell can also get in the mix if back on song after a break.

Simple Star recorded back-to-back victories last month, one of which came over C&D, and Dianne Sayer's charge merits respect. Belle Of Annandale continues to knock on the door and she's unlikely to be far away, though preference is for MENELAUS. The son of Galileo Gold bolted up in an apprentice contest at York last week having won at Thirsk the start before. He's 9lb well-in here and looks set to progress further.

It's hard to look beyond MENELAUS, who is 9 lb 'well-in' with no penalty to carry for last week's clear-cut success in an apprentices' handicap at York. He is clearly at the top of his game and this step back up in trip is unlikely to be an issue. Well Planted gets the nod ahead of Belle of Annandale and Simple Star for forecast purposes.

It's surprising to see the visor left off but MENELAUS still looks the one to be with off a 2lb lower mark than at York last week.

A comfortable winner over this trip at Catterick most recently, Glory Fighter seems a solid option despite an 8lb rise. However, his stablemate SPRING IS SPRUNG can take advantage of a considerable drop in class and the gelded son of Oasis Dream gets the vote. He was not disgraced when finishing in fourth off 1lb higher at York last month and the four-year-old may have more to offer. Sugar Baby has gone up 6lb for winning at Thirsk and completes the shortlist.

Paul Midgley looks to hold a strong hand here and his emphatic Catterick scorer GLORY FIGHTER can defy an 8 lb hike in the weights and lead home his in-form stablemate Spring Is Sprung. Cavalier Approach and Dickieburd appeal as the pick of the remainder and can fight it out for minor honours.

The 5yo SUGAR BABY is drawn well. He won with a nice bit in hand at Thirsk and can defy a career-high mark.

LATIN FIVE took a step in the right direction when only losing out by half a length at Nottingham earlier this month. He is rated 1lb higher for that run and another bold showing looks assured. The Camacho gelding is taken to get the better of Mrs Bagerran, who only lost out by a head over this trip at Catterick last time out. Others of interest include Primo's Comet and Aconcagua Mountain.

PRIMO'S COMET took a step in the right direction last time and has an excellent track record, so he gets the nod down in grade. Latin Five is an obvious danger and Aconcagua Mountain is worthy of consideration on the back of an excusable run.

Paul Midgley's LATIN FIVE (nap) had his pocket picked at Nottingham and looks a winner waiting to happen off his reduced mark.

HILLS OF GOLD found only the progressive Gone too good on his handicap debut at Carlisle last month and compensation could await off only 3lb higher in this contest. United Force is heading in the right direction after a solid runner-up effort at that same venue earlier this month, and he rates as a viable alternative. Iato's Angel, who is now 1lb lower than her fourth-placed finish over C&D a few weeks ago, is also noted.

HILLS OF GOLD signalled he's ready to open his account when an excellent clear second at Carlisle last time and still looks ahead of his mark despite a 3 lb rise with that form working out really well. In-form top-weight United Force appeals as the one to chase home Michael Dods's improver ahead of the consistent Iato's Angel.

United Force is solid and King Me is an interesting handicap debutant, but HILLS OF GOLD could be the answer.

Global Humor displayed another willing attitude when completing a double at Ayr earlier in the month and a 2lb rise is likely to see Jim Goldie's gelding remain competitive. Preference, however, is for C&D winner MONHAMMER. The five-year-old is now 1lb better off with the aforementioned Global Humor for a nose defeat and is fancied to gain his revenge now returned to this venue. It's too soon to be writing off Surprise Picture and he completes the shortlist.

It may pay to side with SIR MAXI, who has been cut some slack by the handicapper and is now eased into 0-65 company for the first time in his career. Surprise Picture could be the one to follow him home, provided he breaks on terms. Monhammer was beaten a whisker by Global Humor at Ayr recently but may well reverse the placings this time and emerge as best of the rest.

The handicapper hasn't been able to hit GLOBAL HUMOR too hard for his recent narrow victories and he's taken to complete the hat-trick.
