SUNSHINE SOUL ran with credit in a handful of novice events last year, most notably when second to the subsequent Queen Mary winner Leovanni on her debut at Nottingham. George Boughey's filly struggled in a handicap at Lingfield last time out but she is more than capable at this level and ought to go very close. Peregrine Falcon lost her way after making a promising debut at Fairyhouse last June, but she has since moved to Patrick Morris and could be revitalised following a 219-day absence. Others to note include Queenofdestruction and Pouting.

A few of these have become disappointing but GALAXY ZOO has only had the two races and now kicks off for Ralph Beckett.

Wine Dark Sea shaped with considerable promise when filling the runner-up spot on his debut in September and is sure to prove popular on his return, but a chance can be taken on ARBOREOUS. Archie Waton often does well with his debutants on an artificial surface and this son of Wooded could be a similar success story, especially given that he is related to a couple of winners on the all-weather. Special Ghaiyyath was the subject of significant market support over C&D two weeks ago, finishing third, and it will be interesting to see if those supporters return.

The choice is WINE DARK SEA who made a promising debut at Yarmouth last autumn, especially as the market suggested little was expected.

The vote goes to TOLERANCE, who made a pleasing return to action when fourth over 6f at Newcastle last month and that was his first start following wind surgery. Eased 1lb for his troubles and upped a furlong in distance, the son of Starspangledbanner can progress and repel the likely challenge of Packetofbiscuits, who arrives having been narrowly denied at Kempton on his last two starts. Risk is also noted.

His ability isn't in doubt and, granted some luck in running, this may be the day for the aptly-named RISK. Tolerance is next best.

LAST SHAMARDAL is likely to prove competitive now handicapping for the first time. Jack Channon's charge produced a strong finish to win a maiden over 6f at Newcastle last month and is expected to thrive over this extra distance. Invincible Melody has been thereabouts in both starts in handicaps and it could be a similar story here, while Moby Quick shaped well when second at Newcastle and can make his presence felt.

Last Shamardal brings obvious potential to his handicap debut but he's drawn wide and INVINCIBLE MELODY may be the answer.

MEGAPHONE defied a penalty for an earlier success at Kempton when scoring in novice company over course and distance in February. Subsequently gelded, further progress looks on the cards now sent handicapping and the son of Kodiac can confirm superiority over Ay Gee Ell (second) and Desert Champion (third). The former has been beaten since, but the latter returned an impressive winner at Chelmsford last month and rates a major threat. Seraphim Angel could also go well.

Hat-trick seeker MEGAPHONE (nap) can confirm C&D placings with Ay Gee Ell and Desert Champion. Ruby's Profit is feared most.

CURTIZ ran well in defeat when finishing second at Chelmsford on his return from a break. That should have sharpened him up and another good account looks assured from Hughie Morrison's charge. Susiesparkle has been in fine form at Newcastle and is not out of it, while City Escape can usually be relied on to run her race at this venue.

Susiesparkle looks booked for another big run but this is a marked drop in grade for the well-handicapped C&D winner BOASTY.

Handle With Care won in comfortable fashion at Lingfield recently and is respected off 6lb higher, while Southwell scorer Powdering shouldn't be far away. This could be all about ORCHID, though, as she sports a first-time tongue-tie on her return to action and was really impressive on her final start as a juvenile when scoring at Kempton effortlessly in September.

A trappy race in which NEYTIRI TE TSKAHA is taken to build on her promising stable debut now back over 6f.

ALIOSKI kept on powerfully over 1m4f at Southwell last time out when second and, although an infrequent winner, the return to further should really help. Two Plus Two has remained in good form since winning off 2lb lower over C&D in January so must be respected, and it would come as no surprise if the lightly-raced Courageous Gold found some improvement.

Zooks looks sure to be involved once more but TWO PLUS TWO challenged wide enough when runner-up here on Tuesday and is preferred.
