Returning to a mile should suit BOBBY BRINKLEY, who is a key player dropping back in class here. Seize The Treasure and Elusive D'oro are others with solid chances based on their peak form, with the former suggested as the bigger threat to the selection at this trip.

A highly competitive opener in which a whole host have chances, a lot of them novices. Handicap debutant PRIMOZ will need to be back to something like his best after a break but the good form he showed in winning his novice here in November is by no means forgotten. The Kalooki Kid retains significant potential and he's interesting for a yard that targets this meeting. Jackpot D'Athou, Doyen Du Bar and Phantomofthepoints are others on the shortlist.[Alistair Jones]

1st (1) All Authorized
5Niall HoulihanGary MooreWon his bumper here; now 0-6 over hurdles but he's proving consistent and seems to be able to show his form on all ground; a repeat of his latest third in a Plumpton handicap should see him difficult to beat here.


Some of these have the potential to get better but ALL AUTHORIZED sets the standard and, although he's not progressive, he is at least consistent. Electric Jet and American Land are on retrieval missions but are capable of having some say, yet Snapdance could be second best if coming on again from Wincanton.[Alistair Jones]

The market will be crucial with regard to these newcomers. Tropical Storm (second choice) has something to recommend him on breeding and the stable won this in 2021 and 2022, but preference is for REPOSADO who cost a bit and whose stable has already struck with a 2yo newcomer this season.[David Bellingham]

Three mares dominate calculations, with Lily Du Berlais and Innatendue bringing the best form but underperforming on their last two starts, whereas SHAKEYATAILFEATHER has looked a rising force. Dan Skelton's charge gets the vote ahead of the back-down-in-trip Innatendue.[Richard Austen]

It wasn't easy for Joe Cotton or DREAMING BLUE despite their wide-margin wins last time out but there's a good chance that both will appreciate the drying ground and the latter is just preferred, given his good course record. Fix At All lacks a recent run but he is down in grade and is another who will find the going to his liking.[Emily Weber]

4Frederick LarsonMichael ApplebyProgressive sprinter; doesn't help himself with slow starts but he ran another solid race when fourth in a red-hot AW handicap at Newcastle on Good Friday (6f); handles good and soft turf; should have a nice prize in him this summer.
(6) Gisburn
5Sean LeveyRichard HannonEnded his losing run when getting up late in a Goodwood handicap (6f, soft) last October (first run after a gelding operation); good efforts on AW on his next two starts; below par on New Year's Day but he returns to turf on a fair mark and conditions should suit; should go well.
(10) Divine Libra
4William BuickCharles HillsStill has low mileage and his two wins have come on slow ground; near miss at Newmarket off 2lb lower last summer; gelded since last seen; more to come this year and should make his mark at this level.
5th (9) Knebworth
4Ethan JonesRichard HughesSecond in a red-hot AW handicap on his reappearance and stepped forward from that when winning at Doncaster last month (6f, soft; cheekpieces first time); backward step at Kempton 13 days ago but likely to give his running.
(4) Fresh
7Daniel TudhopeJames FanshaweClassy handicapper in his time but just flashes of his former glory in a quiet 2023 campaign; now 8lb lower than when a close fifth in the Wokingham and his Kempton return should have blown away the cobwebs; all ground comes alike to him and he's capable of a big run.
(16) Bernardo O'Reilly
10Sean D BowenRichard SpencerVeteran who benefited from the pace collapsing in the corresponding event last year, sweeping home to defy a 5lb higher mark; last month's return at Doncaster should have brought him on and he's likely to be arriving on the scene late; yard going well.
(1) Grand Traverse
4Hollie DoyleArchie Watson7f winner on soft ground for Andre Fabre last spring; absent for 312 days prior to his stable debut at Newcastle (6f) last month and he made a mockery of his opening mark, always prominent and coming home clear of his eight rivals (well backed); up 8lb but unexposed as a sprinter and there could well be more in the tank.


Bernardo O'Reilly has conditions to suit and turns up 5lb lower than when sweeping through late to win the corresponding event 12 months ago. He's high on the list, along with the frustrating pair Aplomb and Chairmanoftheboard, while Fresh and the intriguing Wiltshire also have something to recommend them. The preferred four on a long shortlist are Gisburn, Billyjoh, Divine Libra (second choice) and GRAND TRAVERSE and Archie Watson's 4yo is a fascinating contender. He'll need to be bordering on Listed class to give the weight away but the manner of his Newcastle win last month, along with his market strength that day, offers hope that might be the case. A winner on soft ground in France, he tanked through that Newcastle contest and looks one to keep on the right side.[Paul Smith]

9William MaggsDaragh BourkeWon three-runner handicap at Carlisle in December (off 3lb higher) on second stable start, but unable to threaten on his three starts since and needs to raise his game in a first-time visor (replacing cheekpieces).
(7) Scipion
8Sam ColtherdStuart ColtherdThis 8yo may not be as good as he once was but his near-13l fourth at Kelso (3m2f, soft) last month was a step back in the right direction, and it was his first outing for 84 days so he may be able to build on it; he's well treated on chase form as recent as last April and is no forlorn hope.
(8) Brandy McQueen
7Edward AustinHarriet Graham & Gary RutherfordSomething to prove regarding current form having struggled over fences on his last few starts, but he could appreciate today's return to hurdling and he's handicapped to be competitive if bouncing back to his best.
(5) War Soldier
7Ryan ManiaSandy ThomsonTailed off at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) in February and hard to be overly confident on the back of that; however, earlier that month he stayed on well to win there (2m3f, soft) when back up in trip, and stamina also looked a strength in a 3m point in 2021; no surprise if he's in the mix.
(13) Call Me Harry
7Danny McMenaminIain JardineWon at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) in November and went close there on New Year's Day (3m, soft); he's a contender on that form but he's been below par at Musselburgh the last twice (pulled up most recently).
2nd (12) Herakles Westwood
7Harry CobdenWarren GreatrexLeft November's handicap/seasonal debut well behind to win his next three (2m3f/2m5f, good to soft-heavy); merely fourth the last twice (2m5f/2m3f, soft), however, and he needs something extra now up in trip.

9Brian HughesNicky Richards9yo who is 0-11 since winning his first two hurdle starts in autumn 2020 and he hasn't been at his best on either outing this term; however, he could be working his way back to form and is well treated on last season's best efforts; not discounted.
(10) Hashtag Boum
7Jamie HamiltonRuth JeffersonWon modest Class 4 handicap at Market Rasen (2m7f, soft) in February and fair fourth at Haydock (3m, soft) last time, when perhaps not seen to best effect with half the hurdles omitted; however, improvement is required if she's to threaten in this competitive Class 3.
(17) Phil De Pail
7Henry BrookeOliver Greenall & Josh GuerrieroNeeds to produce more than he's managed this year on his two starts since returning from a long absence, but he travelled well last time and perhaps the reapplication of a tongue-tie will help; he's well handicapped judged on his spring 2022 staying promise and is not a forlorn hope.
(11) Taras Halls
6Nick ScholfieldSue SmithSoundly beaten in mid-division on handicap debut in EBF Final at Sandown (2m4f, soft) last month, and no match for the winner in Market Rasen maiden (2m4f, good to soft) last time; however, he showed staying potential when runner-up to two useful winners in January (2m4f/2m3f, soft/good), and today's step up in trip could be a positive move for this 6yo.
3rd (6) Whistle Stop Tour
6Derek FoxLucinda Russell3m point winner (soft to heavy) who won on his hurdle debut at Hexham (2m, soft) and returned to form to land another novice here (2m4f, good to soft) last month, powering ahead close home; this lightly raced 6yo has potential now upped in trip for his return to handicap company.
4th (14) One Eye On Vegas
7Ciaran GethingsStuart EdmundsA big improver since these cheekpieces went on, winning two in a row (2m4f/2m3f, soft) before a solid third at Uttoxeter (2m4f, heavy) last month; his trainer continues to enjoy a fantastic season and his pedigree provides optimism he'll be suited by today's step up in trip; one to consider.
5th (16) Shoeshine Boy
8Craig NicholDonald WhillansWon over C&D (soft) in February and followed up at Kelso (3m2f, soft) last month; didn't run badly when fifth at Haydock (3m, soft) last time but his form needs to go to a new level if he's to win this.
(9) Ten Lengths Tom
5Stan SheppardTom LaceyBumper winner who scored at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) in November on second hurdle start and was runner-up at Exeter (2m, heavy) last time; begins handicap life on a fair mark and this very lightly raced 5yo could improve for the step up in trip; in good hands to progress and on the shortlist.
(4) Mt Fugi Park
6Jonjo O'Neill JrJonjo O'NeillPoint winner who won first two hurdle starts (2m6f/2m4f, good to soft/heavy) and bounced back from Grade 2 flop with fair fourth on last month's handicap debut at Newbury (3m, good to soft); stayed on well last time and there'll be greater emphasis on stamina in today's ground; in the shake-up.
1st (15) Catch Him Derry
6Harry SkeltonDan SkeltonWon when upped markedly in trip on handicap debut at Southwell (3m, good to soft) in January and second of six at Bangor (2m7f, heavy) in February, when clear with stablemate Gwennie May Boy who has won his next two (latest at Aintree on Saturday); looks well treated up 5lb for last time.


Gwennie May Boy has won twice (including a hot handicap at Aintree on Saturday) since beating stablemate CATCH HIM DERRY (nap) into second at Bangor in February, suggesting the Dan Skelton-trained 6yo is well handicapped off today's 5lb higher mark. Stuart Edmunds continues to enjoy an excellent season and his lightly raced 7yo One Eye On Vegas is second choice, ahead of War Soldier who could relish the step up in trip. The extra yardage may also prompt improvement from Taras Halls and Whistle Stop Tour, while Mt Fugi Park and Ten Lengths Tom are others who could run well.[Ben Hutton]

4Caoilin QuinnGary MooreOff the mark in a weak juvenile maiden over C&D (soft) on Boxing Day; ran to a similar level when placed in handicap company (Southwell and Lingfield) on his next two appearances, before struggling at Sandown; tendency to race too freely remains a worry; one of three for Gary Moore.
7th (11) Macari
4Marc GoldsteinSheena WestImproved since sent handicapping; accounted for the subsequent Taunton scorer Soir De Gala (runs later today at Exeter) when off the mark over a similar trip at Plumpton 18 days ago; 8lb higher, although still 3lb well in, as he bids to double-up; rock-solid credentials.
1st (7) Solar System
5Ben JonesPhilip Hobbs & Johnson WhiteRaced too freely when upped in trip for handicap debut at Taunton (2m3f, soft; third of 14; 7-2 joint-favourite) last month; has to be of interest now dropping back in distance in newly applied headgear; one of the likeliest candidates.


With his recent Plumpton success well advertised, the handicapper has taken swift action in an attempt to thwart the forward momentum of Macari. Sheena West's charge has rock-solid credentials, and is still 3lb well in, in a very winnable contest. However, with a hood now applied to curb his natural enthusiasm, there could also be significantly more to come from the J P McManus-owned SOLAR SYSTEM (nap). [Mark Rowntree]

Top of the list on the limited racecourse evidence is LASTING LOVE who shaped so well at Doncaster in September. It's Beeley who's top rated and she hails from the Gosden yard which has won four of the last eight runnings, but her second racecourse appearance didn't go so well as she got loose. She's still feared most, although the newcomers are a promising bunch on paper and they may be headed by Magic Dream and Bittalemon given the strength of their yards.[Richard Austen]

7Brian HughesDonald McCainProgressive novice who was suited by the return to a left-handed track when winning at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) last month; also effective on soft/heavy; this is a tougher test of his credentials than last time but he's up just 2lb and could continue to improve for last year's winning yard.
(6) Numitor
10Jonjo O'Neill JrHeather MainWinner of a veterans' chase at Haydock (2m4f, soft) three weeks ago on his second start back from an absence; takes on younger opponents today but he remains feasibly treated back up 6lb and could play another leading role.

7Kielan WoodsKeiran BurkeBack to form with neck second of five in novice handicap chase at Kempton (2m2f, good to soft) last month; also effective over 2m4f and on soft ground; there's a suspicion that latest performance (when he lost a shoe) represents strong form and this 7yo novice could be in the mix once more.

1st (2) Outlaw Peter
8Harry CobdenPaul NichollsNovice who was placed twice in a row this winter (2m4f, good/soft) before winning at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) last month; came clear with a course specialist last time and could continue to progress for top yard.

8Harry SkeltonDan SkeltonHis form can be up and down but he's won his last two, from the rear at Sandown (2m4f, good to soft) last month and from the front at Market Rasen (2m3f, good to soft) last week; won on soft last October; did it easily last time and he's 4lb ahead of the handicapper under a 5lb penalty; key player.


Dan Skelton has won four of the last six runnings and JET PLANE is ahead of the handicapper under a 5lb penalty having won easily at Market Rasen last week. Numitor, winner of a veterans' chase at Haydock last time, can play another leading role, while the progressive novices Outlaw Peter and Prairie Wolf are also respected.[Ben Hutton]

9Niall HoulihanRichard RowePoint winner (May 2021); nothing worthwhile in three attempts under rules, the last couple of those (Kempton and Lingfield) since returning from a mammoth absence; no obvious reason to expect better for the switch to handicapping; look elsewhere.
(1) Tzarmix
6Max KendrickJonjo O'NeillChepstow novice winner (2m3f, soft) for Sam Thomas; fared okay on second start for this trainer at Ffos Las (3m, heavy; fourth of nine, beaten 18l; first-time tongue-tie) in November; off since, which raises concerns, but the drop back to 2m3f looks helpful.
(5) In The Air
6Tom CannonAdam WestWon twice during his time with Gary Moore, including narrowly over C&D (good; 11-4; from an 8lb higher mark) last spring; lost his way late last year, and is yet to show any signs of a revival in three starts for Adam West; risky, but easing mark and drying ground could assist.

3rd (2) Cape Vidal
7Ben GodfreyAnthony HoneyballRidden out to score over C&D (novices', good) in October; absent until returning for handicap debut at Ludlow (2m5f, soft) recently, pulling up after losing his action approaching the home turn; strong in the market there, so interesting to see if he can bounce back.

6Gavin SheehanOliver SignyMade all at Taunton (2m3f, heavy; first time tongue-tie; from 2lb higher) last March; mixed fortunes this season; working slowly back to form post wind surgery, and better at Exeter (2m5f, soft; fourth, beaten 17l) last time; this shorter trip should suit.
(10) Siam Park
5Brendan PowellJoe TizzardTwice in the frame at Wincanton (1m7f maiden), running to an RPR of 101 on the second occasion; too free when less competitive at Taunton (sixth) latest, but may have more to offer as he switches to handicapping (up in trip) in a newly applied tongue-tie; consult the market.
(6) Master Dancer
7Harry BannisterRichard J BandeyStratford winner (2m novices', good) in October 2022; lightly raced since - did have a spell over fences - and acquitted himself well enough despite fading after the last when third at Huntingdon (2m4f, good, Kansas Du Berlais second) recently; possibilities.
2nd (4) Kansas Du Berlais
5Lee EdwardsAdam WestDual course winner, the latest coming over C&D (novices', good, 10-11 favourite) last April; keeping-on second on return from further wind surgery at Huntingdon (2m4f, good; first-time hood, with Master Dancer third) recently; preferred to stablemate In The Air.
1st (8) Hecouldbetheone
7Tom BellamyJames OwenWon twice for Gary Moore, including here, in late 2021/early 2022; returned from an 18-month absence to be well held in three runs (two over fences) for Chris Gordon before moving to James Owen; fared no better in a Class 3 at Newbury latest, so cheekpeices are now applied.


Huntingdon evidence suggests that there isn't much between Kansas Du Berlais and Master Dancer. Market support for Siam Park (second choice) would tip the scales towards Joe Tizzard's newly tongue-tied handicap debutant, but the suggestion is the early season C&D winner CAPE VIDAL, who can hopefully bounce back from Ludlow.

7th (3) Doddiethegreat
8Nico de BoinvilleNicky HendersonLightly raced 8yo; it was his first real blip when midfield in the Coral Cup at Cheltenham but the stable was under a cloud then and his previous fourth in the 2m Betfair Hurdle was eyecatching, especially with a view to his potential over this far; very interesting.


A major chance is given to Doddiethegreat who was a big eyecatcher in the Betfair, especially with a view to today's longer trip, and his stable was in the doldrums when he ran in the Coral Cup at Cheltenham. He might be too well handicapped, but the now-hooded JAGWAR also has plenty of upside off his current mark and is very capable of leaving his latest Uttoxeter effort behind. Theformismighty, who seems to have improved since finishing behind the selection in an early-season maiden, is another of obvious interest on his handicap debut.[Alistair Jones]

Jack Doyen and Mister Murchan (preferred in that order) have both been running fairly well in recent weeks but it might be worth chancing chasing debutant GUIVINEC, who made a very respectable handicap hurdle debut six weeks ago and, if last spring's wide-margin point win is a guide, could have a good future over fences.[Chris Wilson]

FERRANDO looks a solid choice. He is bidding to land a second win over this CD. Glass Shoes would be a threat if returning to form while a hike in the weights makes life harder for Captain Tik Tok, and Pompei Warning competes off the back of some good runs.

9th (11) Educator
5Luke MorrisMichael ApplebyWell beaten in sole run on soft; handicap debut in April 2022 was his last win (for William Haggas); some minor honours last year at up to 2m and he's been coming down the weights in his three AW runs for new yard, showing his most promise for them in February latest (behind Spartan Army); case can be made.
6th (1) Beamish
6Hollie DoyleArchie WatsonWon his first three races before further smart form in 2022 when third in two Group 3s; disappointing favourite when upped to 2m that October and unraced since, having been sold out of Paddy Twomey's for 32,000gns last July and gelded; the trip and layoff give him a fair bit to prove.
8th (2) L'Astronome
5Jason HartHugo PalmerFour wins at up to 1m7f in France, including a 1m3f Group 2 in May 2022; good debut for this yard in Listed race at Chester last September but soundly beaten in a Group 3 at Ascot three weeks later, both over 1m4f; had wind surgery since; worth a market check but probably vulnerable.

5Joe FanningCharlie JohnstonFive turf wins over 2m/2m1f last June-September, none on worse than good to soft; not quite so good on soft at Chester (first run there) off today's career-high mark on final outing; needs to find more improvement.
4th (4) Not So Sleepy
12Tom MarquandHughie Morrison12yo who has retained a rare zest, demonstrated last year with a front-running Flat win here (1m5f, heavy; stays well) and a second triumph in the Fighting Fifth Hurdle; remote in the Champion Hurdle last month but no shock were he to bounce straight back with a bold show today.
1st (8) Prince Alex
7David EganDominic Ffrench DavisLosing run goes back to July 2021; three more trainer changes since and he took minor honours off this mark in six-runner races last term on his two runs for current yard, having earlier been a well-beaten fourth in this race after an absence; has only once been beyond 1m6f otherwise (well beaten); others are more persuasive.
2nd (10) Robert Johnson

5th (5) Spartan Army
5Rossa RyanAlan KingFair hurdler on varied ground; Flat form took off again this winter with the switch to AW, winning three times before his creditable third at Newcastle on finals day, all over 2m; turf mark has risen too, so the form needs to be transferred, but he's respected as an in-form candidate.
7th (3) Metier
8Saffie OsborneHarry FryHurdles career seems to have gone off the rails but two big runs on Flat last spring, notably with last-gasp win in the 2m2f Chester Cup (soft); 4lb higher today; has a recent hurdles run under his belt and although rain rather than drying conditions would be preferred for him, he's not ruled out.
3rd (7) Grand Providence
4Oisin MurphyAndrew BaldingHad a good record in 1m6f-2m2f handicaps last term before her disappointing show in the Cesarewitch (11-1) on final outing; those solid runs were on varied ground but peak efforts on good; given the way she won on penultimate outing she could still have potential.


Her Cesarewitch run was disappointing but that's the only such one from GRAND PROVIDENCE (nap) last season and she may now be about to resume her improvement. Robert Johnson looks sure to provide resistance but that grand old-timer Not So Sleepy is feared most and Metier is another to take seriously.[Richard Austen]

8Derek FoxLucinda RussellIn a first-time hood this headstrong sort easily made all over C&D (good) last month; has a 10lb higher mark against tougher opposition today, along with different ground, but this lightly raced 8yo may have more to offer in the hood and could make another bold bid.
3rd (2) Beau Balko
6Harry CobdenPaul NichollsHe tends to be difficult to settle but he won at Musselburgh in February on his fourth chase start (2m, good to soft; ground changed to soft after race) and was a fair third of five in a warm little race at Kempton (2m2f, good to soft) last time; only six and in top hands; possible player.

6Robert DunneSamuel DrinkwaterFaded when 11l second to progressive winner at Doncaster (2m3f, good to soft) in February and capitalised on the drop back in trip to win at Newbury (2m, good to soft) last month; won over hurdles on soft ground; did it very readily last time and is unexposed at this distance; respected up 7lb.
(3) Royal Mer
6Jack TudorDavid PipeEx-French 6yo who is 5-8 over British fences having won comfortably on his last three starts (2m/1m7f, soft); the latest was at Wincanton 11 days ago and a 7lb penalty may not stop this thriving grey.


Things have clicked in a big way for ROYAL MER, who completed a hat-trick in dominant fashion at Wincanton recently, and he can defy a 7lb penalty. Rath Gaul Hill won very cosily when dropped back to 2m at Newbury last time and he could be the main danger ahead of C&D winner Salamanca Bay, who may have more to offer in the retained hood.[Ben Hutton]

8Chris WardDeborah ColeWon an Irish point in April 2021 but she's 0-10 under rules and has form figures of PP8565 in handicaps (2m3f-2m7f); mark continues to fall but she needs a transformation on this big drop back in trip; hood and tongue-tie return.

6Jack QuinlanPaul WebberWon a Ludlow handicap (2m5f, good) off 1lb lower last May but she's not gone on from that and was a well-held fifth at Huntington 18 days ago; record now stands at 1-11 and she has something to prove back in trip; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces.

6Ben JonesEmma LavelleWasn't beaten far in her final bumper and she shaped with promise in big-field events in first two hurdle runs; had a daunting task behind Golden Ace at Taunton last time and this is much more realistic on her handicap debut; one of two runners for Emma Lavelle and she needs a close look.


This looks tricky and the market should be highly informative. Lady Caro had a daunting task in her final qualifying run and should have a future in handicaps, but slight preference is for her stablemate BETHPAGE, who is also unexposed in this sphere and is a sister to a 2m hurdle winner. Dual Flat scorer Opticality could be dangerous on her return to hurdling, while course bumper winner Mays Hill also enters the reckoning along with Ryder's Rock.[David Moon]

4Adam FarragherJennie CandlishHad shown ability prior to getting off the mark in emphatic style at Southwell (1m3f, AW) a week ago; has a 5lb penalty to carry, but still 7lb well in and will take the beating if as effective on turf.


This revolves around Molly Mischief who is 7lb well in under a penalty for last week's Southwell rout and the only question is how she will cope with turf at the first time of asking. With that in mind it may be worth taking her on with ASENSE whose hat-trick last year included two wins here, one over this trip.

Christian David ran well enough on his recent reappearance to be given a positive mention and he's the only one with a run under his belt this term. Preference, however, is for his stablemate CIRCE in the belief that she is about to emerge as an improved 3yo. She tried a Group 3 on her final 2yo start, as did Telemark, while Get The Music On (second choice) represents Clive Cox who has won the last two runnings of this race, but all the runners have to be considered seriously.[Richard Austen]

6Jonathan BurkeFergal O'BrienPoint winner; added a 2m bumper at Worcester to his tally in July 2022; absent for 609 days prior to last month's reappearance at Taunton where he was the stable second string and shaped as though the run was needed; could leave that well behind him.
1st (7) Vincenzo
6Sam Twiston-DaviesSam ThomasPlaced in four of his six runs, running to a similar level in three hurdle runs this year (wind op prior to latest); leading form claims in this line up and the drop back to a stiff 2m shouldn't be an issue.


Intrepide Sud didn't run badly after his mammoth absence at Taunton and he's open to improvement in this sphere but he'll need it if VINCENZO reproduces the form of any of his three hurdle runs in 2024. Rangatira Jack looks best of the rest.[Paul Smith]

6Mr Charlie SprakePaul NichollsBumper winner who was placed on his first three hurdle starts (2m-2m5f) before winning easily at 1-6 at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) last month; his jumping is a work in progress but he's in top hands and it will be no surprise if he is a serious force on this handicap debut.

5Miss Fern O'BrienFergal O'BrienWon when upped in trip on last month's handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m4f, soft) and followed up at Wincanton (2m4f, soft); came miles clear with an unexposed, well-backed runner-up last time and a 10lb rise may not prevent another win from this progressive 5yo.
(7) Billytherealbigred
4Gearoid HarneyOliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero4yo who is 3-3 in handicaps (all against older horses) and won easily last month on his first two starts for this yard (2m/2m2f, soft/heavy); his jumping has lacked fluency and he's 18lb higher than last time, but it remains to be seen where the ceiling of his ability lies; respected.


This is very competitive for the grade. The Fergal O'Brien-trained PLAISIR DES FLOS could still be ahead of his mark and is taken to maintain his unbeaten record in handicaps, although Follow Charlie is 2-2 over C&D and could be a big danger now back here. The 4yo Billytherealbigred has shot up the weights but had bundles in hand the last twice, while Quest With Speed and Don't Tell Su are other interesting contenders.[Ben Hutton]

2Charles BishopJack ChannonShaped with a deal of promise on her Polytrack debut last midweek (Washington Dancer just behind), having blown the start and looked green during the race; will have learned plenty and today's stiffer 5f ought to work in her favour; goes on the shortlist.

2Billy LoughnaneGeorge BougheyEarly foal who hails from a decent family of sprinters but went for just £1,000 as a yearling; yard still to really get rolling with 2yos this spring and doesn't have a great record with them here but she's one of the more interesting newcomers.
4th (1) Flicka's Girl
2Laura PearsonDavid LoughnaneDaughter of a 5f 2yo Wolverhampton winner who followed in her dam's tracks when landing a gamble early in the month; had a good bit in hand there and helps set the standard under a penalty.


Flicka's Girl knew her job and won well at Wolverhampton early in the month, having come in for good support. Now she's being asked to concede a penalty to a pair who conversely needed their opening experience at Kempton nine days ago, and the temptation is to go with SPIRITED DANCER, albeit there's nothing to choose between her and Washington Dancer on 2lb worse terms. Betty Clover, who represents last year's winning yard, is an interesting newcomer.[Graham Wheldon]

This could boil down to a duel between two horses who failed to complete the course in the Boodles at Cheltenham. PALAMON, pulled up after being hampered, was the shorter-priced of the pair and may prove too strong for Mordor who was brought down. Newcomers Love Me and Uhavemeinstitches may be good enough to get into the money. [Alan Sweetman]

7Mr Sean O'ConnorDan SkeltonPulled up/well beaten over fences/hurdles on her two handicap starts and a return to form is needed; however, she's in top hands and a case can be made judged on her two novice wins last September (2m4f/2m1f, good to soft/heavy); not discounted.
3rd (8) Seasett
6Mr Paddy HanlonJohn Joseph HanlonFaded into fourth at Wincanton (2m5f, soft) last time and needs a bigger performance today, but earlier last month he won under Paddy Hanlon at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) and he's a player if rediscovering that form; wears cheekpieces for first time over hurdles (ran okay in them once on the Flat).
4th (4) Lihyan
6Ben SmithRebecca MenziesWon at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) in December and runner-up there the next twice (2m4f, soft); strong claims if his fine form continues now at a different track; won at Cork early in career; fair fifth here in November.
5th (2) Glen Cannel
6Charlie MaggsL J MorganFollowing a layoff he's been soundly beaten in third on his two starts this year; however, this 6yo may be working his way back to form and completed a double with C&D novice win (heavy) in January 2023; not written off.


The step up in trip could be a major plus for BENEFIT BEN on his handicap debut, with him being a 3m point runner-up and half-brother to two winning stayers. Race regular Castletown could be the chief danger despite the absence, while Lihyan will be a big threat if transferring his good Musselburgh form to this course.[Ben Hutton]

Clyde Bay (second choice), Miss Stormy Night and Outer Edge are all capable of better but BATED BREEZE (nap) was a big eyecatcher at Kempton on his seasonal return and a 1lb drop for that third placing looks generous. He made up a vast amount of ground from 3f out to 1f out on that occasion but those exertions saw him tie up close home. He looks well handicapped and can prove that point here.[Paul Smith]

The physically imposing ERNIE FROM NURNEY (nap) is maturing along the right lines and may cope with the 6lb extra received for a Naas win.

(7) Paddy In The Caddy
5Sean HoulihanPhilip Hobbs & Johnson WhiteRunner-up in Irish point; nothing doing in qualifying runs on good to soft and slower ground but the return to good ground suited when making a successful switch to this level at Huntingdon (2m4f) last month, winning with something to spare; that wasn't a competitive race but he's only 4lb higher and has more to come.
3rd (1) Soir De Gala
5Lorcan WilliamsPaul NichollsHis qualifying runs weren't up to much but he has proved ahead of his mark since handicapping this month, going close at Plumpton (2m1f, good) before a 3l win at Taunton (2m, soft) was no real indication of his superiority; was due a 7lb rise there and now has a penalty on top but he may well be up to the task.


The two recent winners, Soir De Gala and PADDY IN THE CADDY, can have this between them. Lorcan Williams did not have to be at all hard on the former at Taunton last week but he is effectively 14lb higher on his third quick run. He is still much respected but Paddy In The Caddy also made a good impression when winning at Huntingdon and the drying ground will perhaps be more of a help to him than Soir De Gala whose latest improved run was on soft. Electric Eddy is worth a market check on his British debut while The Cypriot and Zoeman are possible types for handicaps.[Emily Weber]

6Keith DonoghueTom DreaperDistant fourth behind Firefox and Ballyburn on debut at Fairyhouse was promising and bounced back from a lesser run when third of 20 at Down Royal last month; interesting if first-time cheekpieces eke out a bit more.


A chance is taken on the fitness of NAPPER TANDY (nap) who was useful on the Flat in Britain and made a highly promising start to life in this sphere when last seen. Doctor Glide has shown ability and should be involved if first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect. Giant Haystacks ought to appreciate this drop in class. [Phill Anderson]

3Billy LoughnaneDavid LoughnaneHer small-field maiden win last summer (6f, good; made all) hasn't worked out and she may prove hard to place this time, having subsequently not been beaten far in a muddling Group 3; would be a surprise winner here in any case.

5Dougie CostelloSteph HollinsheadC&D win last summer came in 0-65 company, since when she's enjoyed a good time on Tapeta, with four victories from her last six runs; she's very consistent and likely to give her running again but that would leave her some way short of what's needed.

1st (10) Adaay In Devon
3Silvestre De SousaRod MillmanHighly progressive in the second half of last year for tackling soft/heavy turf, winning four times and going 26lb up the weights; has looked at least as good this spring but she'd have preferred the rain to keep falling.


5f on drying ground, even round a stiff course, wouldn't look optimal for either Pinafore, whose wins have all come over 6f, or last spring's Group 3 Palace House winner Vadream, whose three turf victories have come on soft/heavy going, especially with both returning from absences. Adaay In Devon is another who'd have preferred the rain to have kept coming and this can go to RAGE OF BAMBY, a useful juvenile who didn't get the breaks during a limited campaign last year. Electric Storm is having her first run on turf and first crack at 5f back from seven months off, leaving Unbreak My Heart, who had the hard-pulling Tears Of A Clown behind when closing out last season with a third in Group 3 company, as second choice.[Graham Wheldon]

3rd (2) Prefer The Sister

2nd (5) God Bless America
3George DowningEve Johnson HoughtonRunner-up in both starts on the AW at Southwell (7f/1m) in the past two months; the form of neither race has worked out particularly well, but still a big player.


Prefer The Sister and God Bless America have each shown ability in two starts on the AW and although the form may not be the strongest, they still have to be respected in this field. Money for any of the newcomers, in particular Airgunner and Epidavros, would be interesting, but the vote goes to VOLTO DI MEDUSA. His third of 13 at Thurles on his final start for Joseph O'Brien last year showed that there may be better to come and his new stable won this race in 2022.[David Bellingham]

4Silvestre De SousaMichael WighamTook full advantage of the drop into Class 6 company when fairly bolting up over 1m2f at Chelmsford last week; well in under his 5lb penalty and shouldn't have any issue with either the ground or the drop in trip; the one to beat.


Three Yorkshiremen had a Chelmsford handicap in safe keeping a long way out last week and he'll be hard to beat under a penalty despite the drop in trip. Most of his rivals are fully exposed but the exception is JOHNJAY, who won over C&D last April before holding his own in stronger races. He could progress again this year and looks a viable alternative. Snapcracklepop and Eye Of The Water look best of the rest, while the return of headgear for Emorcee could see him return to form.[Paul Smith]

9Gavin BrouderDonal HassettNow a three-time winner over fences; possibly a little fortunate to get away with a 4lb rise for his front-running success at Thurles at the beginning of the month; 5lb claimer controlled the race effectively then.


It may be worth taking a chance on KNOW THE GAME who should be sharper for a recent run over hurdles at Fairyhouse and is a more effective chaser. The obvious danger is Sunnyvilla, only 4lb higher than when making all at Thurles. McGrath From Clune also has sound credentials. [Alan Sweetman]

5James BowenNicky HendersonFrom the family of the stable's quality staying chaser Trabolgan; recruited for 200,000 euros after winning his point and it's unlikely that Lingfield's AW track in January played to his strengths when a clear second to last week's Aintree runner-up Tripoli Flyer; that effort was packed full of promise and he's difficult to oppose.


There's no temptation to see past KINGSTON PRIDE who has a tall reputation. His second to Tripoli Flyer looks good now after the winner's excellent effort at Aintree last week and this track will surely suit Nicky Henderson's gelding a whole lot better than Lingfield's AW circuit. Kap Quest actually had Tripoli Flyer behind when third at Chepstow in October but the latter has left that form a long way behind. Harry Fry's now-hooded 5yo is the standout danger.[Alistair Jones]

4George BassDenis CoakleySole win in 11 starts came off 6lb lower over C&D (good to soft) last August; placed in all four subsequent starts on the AW (in cheekpieces last time) and a player if ready to go after five months off; market may be helpful.

5Billy LoughnaneMark LoughnaneHas been most consistent since returning to the AW last November, especially since stepped up to this sort of trip; despite that he remains favourably treated on turf, being 2lb lower than when successful at Leicester (6f, soft) in May last year; high on list.


Covert Mission is a contender now back off his last winning mark having put up an encouraging effort on the AW last time, while Darvel is also interesting off 1lb lower than when last successful. Racing Demon and Golden Phase are others for the shortlist, but the choice is KING OF SPEED who has been performing so consistently on the AW since the autumn. Despite that he remains 2lb below his last winning turf mark.[David Bellingham]
