J: Harriet Tucker

T: Neil Mulholland

Front-runner who regularly gives his all and was beaten off only on the run-in when third to Dance And Glance over C&D (good) five weeks ago; should make another bold bid but several of these look less exposed.

11st 13lb

J: Harriet Tucker

T: Neil Mulholland

Front-runner who was second over C&D (good) in December and bounced back from being pulled up in the William Hill Hurdle at Newbury (heavy) to make all in four-runner handicap at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft); has a career-high mark in this hotter race but he did it comfortably last time; could make a bold bid.

J: Harriet Tucker

T: Neil Mulholland

Poached a nice advantage but unable to hold off a progressive rival at Haydock (2m, good; in added cheekpieces) on penultimate start; pulled up in deep in a Premier Handicap at Newbury (50-1) latest; chance back in calmer waters.

J: Harriet Tucker

Acts on heavy ground; front-runner who returned to form with cheekpieces fitted at Haydock most recently; back on career-high mark and faces a stiffer task in this field but is difficult to dismiss, being 2-2 in C&D handicaps; headgear retained.

Won his last two races last season (2m, soft; ridden by Harriet Tucker); has been disappointing on both starts this season and is now tried in cheekpieces.
