- Aspire To Glory
- K T O'neill / Alice Haynes
|
|
55
|
5/1 |
Aspire To Glory
Proved he could do it at beyond 7f when winning over 8.6f at Wolverhampton last Tuesday; has more on his plate tonight, stepping out of handicap company under a penalty, but should give his running as usual.

- Alice's Impact
- Rossa Ryan / P D Evans
|
|
57
|
13/2 |
Alice's Impact
Looked unlucky not to go closer still back up to 1m last time, when sporting a first-time visor under Rossa Ryan (retains the ride); has to go on the shortlist.

- Alyara
- Dylan Hogan / Joe Ponting
|
|
59
|
25/1 |
Alyara
C&D winner late last year who's often pulled hard, as when behind Aspire To Glory last week; should do better if the first-time hood, added to the usual cheekpieces, helps her settle.

- Barney's Bay
- T Eaves / D Shaw
|
|
55
|
28/1 |
Barney's Bay
Done most racing over shorter and has regressed sharply in recent times; almost sprung a surprise over 7f here last month but predictably didn't build on it latest.

|
- Fifty Sent
- Amie Waugh / S England
|
|
56
|
17/2 |
Fifty Sent
Been inclined to pull hard since the blinkers went on but he's done better with each start since returning from an absence; is one to consider on his latest C&D third in a similar race.

- Iftikhaar
- Lewis Edmunds / J R Jenkins
|
|

|
14/1 |
Iftikhaar
Maiden who's done most racing over middle-distances but was fine with this trip, switched from the usual cheekpieces to a second-time visor, round Lingfield last time (winner gone in again since); easy to argue he's happier on Polytrack but has claims.

- Masham Moor
- Aiden Brookes / S G West
|
|
61
|
8/1 |
Masham Moor
Doesn't boast a great strike-rate but has a decent record over C&D, with two wins, latterly last spring; came back to form in a race that didn't set up ideally here last time and has to be considered.
|
|
|
|
- Mr Slicker
- David Probert / Sarah Hollinshead
|
|
55
|
16/1 |
Mr Slicker
Veteran who had plenty of chances at this level over the winter; hasn't been as good the past twice, latterly behind Aspire To Glory last Tuesday, and others hold stronger claims.
|
|
|
|
- On Locust Point
- George Wood / Lemos Souza
|
|
59
|
10/1 |
On Locust Point
First signs of life for Amy Murphy, who he's since left, in a first-time hood over C&D early last month; that was still far from exciting, though, with him never looking like winning behind Mr Slicker.
|
|
|
|
- Ravenglass
- Joe Leavy / A Wintle
|
|
68
|
9/2 |
Ravenglass
Expensive to follow this year but has been dropped 3lb and runs in a 0-50 for the first time; went close for Joe Leavy on his only previous start here and ought to fare better.
|
|
|
|
- Stoic Syd
- Marco Ghiani / I Furtado
|
|
69
|
8/1 |
Stoic Syd
Has pulled hard in two runs back from an absence and much will hinge on how he settles from the outside stall in first-time headgear; it could well be all or nothing and the temptation is to look elsewhere.
|

- Van Zant
- Joanna Mason / Mrs R Carr
|
|
60
|
12/1 |
Van Zant
In good form early in the year but ran poorly behind two of these over C&D 11 days ago; is some way down the pecking order from another wide stall.
