EL HIBRI had a little in hand when winning over this course and distance on Saturday and appeals for a quick follow up under a 5lb penalty. Mumayaz has held his form well of late and is feared most with the drop back to this trip not expected to be an issue, while Mokaatil has gone well on synthetic surfaces elsewhere and is an interesting one to note in the betting on his debut run at this venue.

A few of these arrive with question marks against them so this looks a good opportunity for the in-form MUMAYAZ to gain a deserved success and end a lengthy losing run. Recent C&D winner El Hibri is feared most, although a solid case can also be made for Sparkle In His Eye and Captain Vallo.

El Hibri and Mumayaz should be thereabouts but MR SQUIRES receives the vote after shaping encouragingly last time.

ASSAIL stepped up markedly from his debut to score with a little more in hand than the winning margin suggests when landing a maiden at Wolverhampton last November. An opening handicap mark of 75 is not insurmountable and another big run could be on the cards. Sagauteur got off the mark for his current yard with comfortable success at Newcastle last month and is feared most off just 4lb higher. Skye Breeze and Royal Dream are also considered.

SAGAUTEUR scored in ready fashion at Newcastle last month so can defy a 4 lb rise over a trip which he remains unexposed at. Royal Dream is worth another go at this distance given how he shaped at Kempton and is next best ahead of Skye Breeze, who should step up on his comeback returned to AW.

Royal Dream and PAGE THREE were set a lot to do before running on well in the same Kempton race last month. The latter gets the nod

BRINGBACKMEMORIES took advantage of a drop in class when he won a seller at Hamilton on his penultimate start and, having also gone well when second back in this grade at Newcastle 12 days ago, there is a lot to like about his chance here. Morlaix hinted at a revival last time out and poses a big threat to the selection, while the relatively unexposed Luna Effect can also be fancied to be on the premises at the business end.

LUNA EFFECT took a step back in the right direction when third here last month, finishing well having been set plenty to do down in trip, so gets the vote off the same mark back up in distance. Bringbackmemories shaped well on his AW debut when second at Newcastle recently and rates a big threat, while Orange N Blue is the potential improver now switched to handicaps.

The choice is FOX FLAME who has won and been narrowly beaten in her two starts over C&D and is back off her last winning mark.

JACQUES CARTIER showed ability on debut when he finished behind a couple of horses with stacks of potential in a novice at Wolverhampton last month. The son of Sea The Stars could be hard to beat with a step forward here. Turing's latest start at Kempton has a solid look which puts him in the picture, while Mach Ten was a couple of places behind the selection in that aforementioned race but could get closer with the step up in trip likely to suit.

JACQUES CARTIER produced a promising first effort amidst signs of inexperience when third in novice company at Wolverhampton 31 days ago and he's expected to build on that and come out on top upped in trip. Mach Ten and Turing can give him most to think about.

This can go to JACQUES CARTIER who finished a promising third on his Wolverhampton debut. The longer trip is likely to suit him.

GREATGADIAN benefited from a drop back in trip when runner-up at Newcastle on his most recent start and he makes plenty of appeal with his rider's 3lb claim enhancing his chances further. Excel Power went close to getting his head back in front at Chelmsford last month and warrants plenty of respect. Doctor Khan Junior seeks a hat-trick of victories and completes the shortlist, along with Intervention and Lord Of The Lodge.

DOCTOR KHAN JUNIOR made it four wins from his last six starts with a stylish success at Wolverhampton last month and, with further progress possible, he could take this step up in class and 9 lb higher mark in his stride. Greatgadian, like the selection, boasts a good strike rate on the all-weather and he is feared most on the back of a solid effort at Newcastle. Gulliver is lurking on a dangerous mark and is another to consider, along with the in-form Intervention and Misty Grey.

Four of these met at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day. The runner-up FOLLOW YOUR HEART can come out best this time from his favourable draw.

STORYMAKER hasn't looked back since getting off the mark at Wolverhampton last month, with subsequent victories at Lingfield a week later and at Southwell on Saturday. A 5lb penalty doesn't appear likely to stop George Boughey's filly in her current vein of form. Enola Grey arrives having scored on her last couple of starts at Newcastle and she is likely to enter calculations, while recent Lingfield scorer Maysan isn't one to discount lightly.

The hat-trick beckons for ENOLA GREY, who has hit the target in handicaps at Newcastle the last twice and has gone close on both previous visits to this course. Gemma Tutty's charge remains on a feasible mark and is taken to get the better of fellow recent winners Storymaker and Maysan.

The vote goes to ENOLA GREY (nap) who is taken to complete the hat-trick and make it 3-3 under Ethan Jones.

GYPSY WHISPER has been knocking on the door recently, having finished less than a length behind the winner on four of his last five starts, and this appears to be a solid opportunity for the seven-year-old to gain a deserved victory. Big Narstie has plummeted down the handicap in recent months and the application of blinkers for the first time might spark a revival. Twistaline and Broughtons Flare are both capable of a decent showing.

A 3-time winner on all-weather this time last year, BROUGHTONS FLARE took a step back in the right direction when fourth at Wolverhampton recently and in a race lacking depth, he gets the vote to build on that here. Gypsy Whisper arrives in good nick and she's feared, ahead of Coconut Bay. The lightly-raced Button Bay is also worth monitoring in the market faced with her easiest assignment to date.

Mark Loughnane's BROUGHTONS FLARE scored three times in January last year and shaped well when fourth at Wolverhampton last week.

BLAZING HOT went close on several occasions at the back end of last season, including when just denied on his penultimate start at Pontefract. He remains on the same mark as his latest effort, when finishing third at Newcastle, and gets the vote in what appears to be a winnable contest on paper. The application of cheekpieces might yield some improvement from Resilience, with Yaahobby and Coley's Koko others to note.

NOT TOO REAL BAD didn't enjoy the rub of the green when eighth at Newcastle last time and this fair ex-Irish scorer can resume winning ways for the excellent Mick Appleby team. Resilience arrives on a long losing run but is still feared most ahead of in-form Yaahobby and the returning Crocodile Power.

The selection is BLAZING HOT who is still 3lb lower than when gaining his latest success over C&D at the end of 2022.
