Sonic Pioneer
Out of a half-sister to German 1m Group 3 winner; well held at big prices in three maiden/novice events (6f) this year but he now goes handicapping and looks a possible improver on this step up in trip; needs watching in market.

Herkeios
Five-race maiden who found improvement upped to 1m when a keeping-on third in Lingfield handicap last month; left James Ferguson for 7,000gns since; should have more to offer at this trip and is respected on stable debut; blinkers worn last twice are removed.

Stay Around
Well held in three qualifying runs (7f/6f), most recently when fourth of five at Southwell (hood added) on recent return from a break; needs improvement at this new trip on handicap debut.

Boundless Poet
Well held in his three runs (7f/6f) this winter but he's bred to appreciate this step up in trip and could show a lot more on his handicap debut; one to keep an eye on for in-form yard.

Latona
Regressive form in four 2yo runs, ending with a well-held eighth on nursery debut here (9.4f) in December, when taking a strong hold; needs to do much better on this drop back in trip; blinkers replaced with cheekpieces.

Majestic Heights
Won a 7f Brighton nursery in October and ran respectably on AW in next two runs but his form slumped at Lingfield last month; now 1-10 and has something to prove; refitted cheekpieces replace blinkers.

3/1 |
Backer Bilk
Went close on handicap debut over C&D this month and he got off with the mark with a comfortable win at Lingfield (1m2f) six days later; up 4lb but he's open to more progress and is a big player back in trip.

Zadkiel
Good third in 6f Leicester nursery in October but he's not come close to that form since and was out the back on recent stable debut at Southwell (5f); record now 0-9 and has plenty to prove on his step up to this trip.

Ignition
Eight-race maiden who went close over C&D 23 days ago but he flopped (11-10 favourite) behind Backer Bilk at Lingfield last time; drops back in trip but his form has been up and down and he comes with risks attached.

Manton Road
Has form figures of 321132 since joining Gay Kelleway and both wins have come at this track (7f/8.6f); up another 2lb after his second at Newcastle ten days ago but that was a near miss and he pulled clear with the winner; respected back up in trip.

Unfortunate Heir
Represents major yard; never figured in 6f/7f events last autumn (gelded since) but could well improve now handicapping at a modest level and upped in trip; interesting, especially if the market speaks positively.

Master Milan
Well-bred colt; he hasn't shown much in three runs (6f-1m) for Kevin Philippart De Foy this winter; now goes handicapping off a lowly mark but he needs a transformation for new yard.
