Back to form with a promising runner-up effort at Southwell last time out, BETWEENTHESTICKS could be primed to strike off a mark 17lb lower than his career high in what looks like a winnable contest. Placed on each of his last four outings, Sergeant Mayer is likely to be thereabouts again, along with Bama Lama, who has strong claims on her success at Windsor back in October.

A small-field, low-level sprint handicap but a few to consider, with a chance taken on MATCH PLAY.

Now that the penny has dropped for STAR ZIA after a comfortable success at Wolverhampton in February, she is likely to have plenty more improvement forthcoming and the daughter of Havana Grey can follow up on her handicap debut off what appears a workable mark. Narrowly denied on each of his last two starts at Newcastle, Frankies Dream is a key player, as is Mr Cool, who wasn't beaten far at Wolverhampton.

There's no standout in this but maybe MR COOL can come good, preferred to the reappearing Nightbird, who still has some potential.

TOBY TOPS was well on top at the finish when breaking through at Southwell and a 3lb rise for that victory may not be enough to prevent him from going in again, with Billy Loughnane a positive booking in the saddle. Incan Empire continues to improve as he goes up in trip and is a big danger on his first go at 2m. Captain Potter remains nicely treated compared to his hurdles mark.

The surface is a slight concern but otherwise TOBY TOPS has plenty in his favour and can follow up his recent Southwell success.

Hornsea Bay made a good impression when scoring on debut at Ayr and then arguably bettered that performance under a penalty when touched off at the same venue. He appears to have a bright future, but it may pay to side with SECRET THEORY. Charlie Appleby's colt is a half-brother to the stable's Grade 1 winner Mysterious Night and struck at the first time of asking at Newmarket in the autumn. Archivist isn't out of it on his first appearance for William Haggas.

A good, interesting novice in which Derby entry ARCHIVIST might be tough to beat, getting weight, even facing some good prospects.

Time Tells All signed off his campaign with a fair third at Chester in June last year and it will be interesting to see how he fares on his return to the fray. However, RISEN AGAIN has match fitness on his side and looks the way to go. The four-year-old appreciated the application of first-time blinkers when hitting the woodwork at Lingfield and can go one better. Covert Legend may also have a say.

Time Tells All holds claims but BOBACIOUS (nap) is taken to step forward from his recent stable debut and gain a third win.

THE NEW BAY PEARL has acquitted herself with credit when runner-up on her last couple of outings and an opening mark of 72 looks workable. Roger Varian's filly is a potential improver now tackling further than 7f for the first time and a breakthrough victory could be in the offing. Hock Eye The Noo arrives on the back of a close-up second at Newcastle and she's feared most, ahead of the consistent Whizz By.

A few to consider and HOT LIKE ME, who faced some talented rivals last year, may be worth chancing on this drop in class/rise in trip.

Having posted a good second in a 21-runner affair at Doncaster's Lincoln meeting, MR JETMAN makes plenty of appeal. That was the five-year-old's second outing under the tutelage of Seb Spencer and his turn looks imminent. Fifty Sent justified favouritism at Southwell and a 2lb higher mark is unlikely to prevent another bold bid. Venus Slipper is also in form after so nearly completing a Lingfield brace.

A chance is taken on EDVARD GRIEG who was runner-up off 12lb higher over C&D last August. Mr Jetman can follow him home.

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.
