33/1 |
Misaura
All three Flat starts in December, improving on her first two efforts when third of eight in a Southwell novice (1m3f, Tapeta); more needed on handicap debut, but at least she is unexposed.

Bloodhound
0-13 but was having only his third start for this yard when second of seven over C&D five weeks ago; each-way claims at least from the same mark.

Avarice
2-29 with his latest win coming in this race three years ago; 9lb lower now and although not in much form lately, market support would be significant.

Come On John
Still 5lb higher than when winning at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) in October, but has been mainly consistent in the meantime, going down by less than a length here (9.5f) six days ago; no problem with the return to further and respected from the same mark.

Lednikov
All three AW wins have come at Southwell, the latest when making just about all over this trip last month; only 3lb higher, but plenty went his way there and he has finished out of the frame in four visits here.

- National Health
- Rob Hornby / O Murphy

|
7/2 |
National Health
0-12 under rules, but has been placed in his last three starts in 0-50 classified events around here, the latest over this trip three weeks ago; has a bit more to do back in a handicap but he is still a contender on those efforts.

33/1 |
Anticipating
Ten-race maiden who made the frame a couple of times on turf for David Menuisier as a 3yo, but hasn't beaten many in four starts on the AW since joining this yard; cheekpieces need to make a difference.

13/2 |
Desert Guest
Minor form in two bumpers and well beaten in three AW maidens at about 1m; makes his handicap debut for respected trainer/jockey combination, but not sure the big step up in trip is the answer.

- Artemesia
- Jack Doughty / C E Longsdon

|
150/1 |
Artemesia
Has failed to beat a rival at big odds in four starts over 6f-9.5f on turf/AW; stamina-laden pedigree suggests the longer trip should suit, but she still needs to find a deal of improvement.
