ROBUSTO made a highly encouraging start for the Eve Johnson Houghton stable when filling the runner-up berth over track and trip earlier in the month. The son of Churchill goes off an unchanged mark and he could be the one to beat. The main threat might be Percy Willis, who was touched off over 1m3f here last time and should have no issues with this longer trip. Of the remainder, Royal Deeside makes most appeal.

Having enjoyed an excellent 2023 for Sir Mark Prescott, ROBUSTO made a very promising start for new connections when second over C&D 19 days ago and he looks set for another productive campaign. Enthused is over a more suitable trip so he's a threat, along with Royal Deeside, who is fit from hurdling.

The vote goes to ROBUSTO who proved consistent for Sir Mark Prescott last year and made a fine debut for this yard over C&D this month.

Giudecca got off the mark at the third time of asking at Newcastle when last seen in September and she should be competitive off an opening rating of 85 for her powerful connections. However, the vote goes to ZAINABB, who has match-fitness on her side after hitting the crossbar over 7f here earlier in the month and she is only 1lb higher today. Charlie Fellowes' filly could have improvement in her back up in trip and she looks the way to go, while hat-trick seeking Raknah is another to keep an eye on.

ZAINABB took really well to the AW when runner-up here 3 weeks ago, pulling nicely clear of the rest and on that evidence, her current mark is lenient. Giudecca is bred to be better than this level so she has to command respect on reappearance, with Battle Queen another very likely improver.

Andrew Balding still has maiden races as a easier option for BATTLE QUEEN but is evidently happy to let her try her luck in handicaps.

MODERN TIMES took a step forward from his debut effort when a length second over a mile at Kempton in November and he is likely to have plenty more to offer. Harry Eustace's three-year-old makes his return to action and he could prove too good, with his main danger possibly being Approved Star, who ran with huge credit when he hit the frame on his debut at Kempton earlier in the month. Sardinian Warrior and Smart Hero aren't out of it either.

SARDINIAN WARRIOR was in need of the experience but very much caught the eye with his finish when second at Kempton in December and this Dante/Derby entrant should take the beating with plenty of improvement forthcoming. Smart Hero only just failed to make a winning start at Kempton 11 days ago and rates the main threat. Modern Times is also respected in what looks a strong novice.

The choice is SMART HERO whose neck defeat on his Kempton debut 11 days ago was probably an even better performance than it looked.

PRYDWEN was quite taking when landing a big pot at Newcastle on Good Friday and a 6lb higher rating may not be enough to prevent the six-year-old from following up. The biggest threat may emerge from the progressive Pledgeofallegiance, who capped off last year's campaign with a victory at Ripon in September. Last month's Lingfield runner-up Diamond Bay should give another good account in retained cheekpieces.

TENERIFE SUNSHINE has long threatened to make into a stayer and ran well on his first try at 2m at Lingfield last time. This track should play more to his strengths so he shades the vote over Prydwen, who won a valuable event at Newcastle in good style last month. Pledgeofallegiance is another who should have more to offer at this distance and completes the shortlist.

Prydwen's impressive win at the AW Championships was something of an eyeopener but he may meet his match in WONDERFUL EAGLE (nap).

A gelding operation seemed to do the trick for PIZ NAIR because he scored comfortably on his return at Lingfield earlier in the month, and a 3lb rise for that success could prove lenient as he goes up in class. Not seen in action since a determined victory at Thirsk last July, the unbeaten She's A Gambler is a key player, along with fellow handicap debutant Blue Day and the consistent Media Shooter.

PIZ NAIR won nicely at Lingfield 3 weeks ago and could have a fitness edge over some so he's preferred ahead of Blue Day and She's A Gambler.

A competitive 3yo handicap. There may yet be more to come from Lingfield winner PIZ NAIR and he is preferred to Media Shooter.

Although Billboa warrants respect in his bid to land a four-timer, the gelded son of Brazen Beau may be worth taking on racing off a 5lb higher mark than last month's narrow Dundalk victory. Fellow last-time-out winner AL BAREZ was value for further than his Kempton victory having got there from an uncompromising position. Tom Clover's charge is taken to complete a double, with the in-form Intervention also likely to be involved.

AL BAREZ took his form up a notch when going in at Kempton and Tom Clover's low-mileage 5-y-o is fancied to make light of a 3 lb rise and fend off Irish challenger Billboa who bids for a four-timer. C&D winner Shalaa Asker is another who should be on the premises, while Mick Appleby's in-form duo Billyjoh and Intervention command plenty of respect too in this competitive handicap.

The vote goes to AL BAREZ who remains unexposed after just nine starts. His Kempton win shows that he is at least as good as ever.

A relatively comfortable winner at Wolverhampton earlier in the month, WOODSTOCK seems to have found a new lease of life since joining the Ruth Carr stable, and he can follow up off a 3lb higher mark. Not in action since a respectable effort in a higher grade at Newbury last September, Pumalin Park must enter calculations, along with Eldrickjones, for whom Oisin Murphy is an eye-catching booking.

ACOTANGO is well treated on his peak form last season (including here) and the drop to 7f looks an interesting move for one who does tend to travel well in his races. It didn't take long for Ruth Carr to find the key to Woodstock and he's second choice ahead of Tropez Power. Lightly-raced Sir Michael Stoute representative Pumalin Park is another fascinating runner in a well-contested handicap.

The vote goes to WOODSTOCK who returned to winning form at Wolverhampton this month and may still have more to offer for his new yard.

Even from his early days with Ger Lyons, NEW IMAGE shaped as though he would relish going up to at least 7f, and the fact he won here quite easily last month is another plus on just his second start in a handicap. Narrowly denied on her last two starts, including here, Quandary is a key player, as well as One More Dream, who has won on his last two visits to this track.

NEW IMAGE has made a promising start for David O'Meara and is fancied to quickly resume winning ways having not enjoyed the rub of the green when third on his handicap bow at Wolverhampton. Eligible could emerge as the main danger off a handy-looking mark, although a solid case can also be made for the likes of Quandary, Wild Tiger and Swiss Ace in this competitive handicap.

The choice is NEW IMAGE who has done well since returning from his mammoth absence. There may be even better to come from him.
