In a competitive little race, maybe DESIDERATA can build on his Wolverhampton success from two starts back, having had excuses since. This is a stiffer test than for the win but he started out in bumpers and is bred to stay. Rock Armour is second pick.[Ron Wood]

No.	Selection	Form		Guide	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
1 (7)	Rock Armour D Egan / J Butler	4yrs / 9st 9lb 7-6813 Spotlight	73	10/3	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Rock Armour Winner over C&D when blinkered for the first time two starts back; only third behind Susiesparkle under same conditions six days later (evens favourite), but ought to be competitive again; reverts to wearing cheekpieces.
2 (1)	Susiesparkle Mohammed Tabti / I Jardine	5yrs / 9st 8lb 225-61 Spotlight	72	4/1	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Susiesparkle Winner over C&D latest, on second start following a breathing operation (reversing penultimate form with Rock Armour); negligible rise in the weights; should go well again.
3 (3)	It's A Love Thing T Eaves / S England	7yrs / 9st 8lb 997-83 Spotlight	80	9/4	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
It's A Love Thing Has dropped to same mark as when winning over C&D three years ago; was backed to take advantage under same conditions latest (2-1 favourite), running creditably for third behind Rock Armour even if unable to fully justify the support; chance.
4 (2)	Muhib Hollie Doyle / Olly Williams	4yrs / 9st 7lb 030-5 Spotlight	71	17/2	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Muhib Lightly raced ex-Gosden runner; looked as though he had something to offer when denied a clear run in the straight on recent handicap debut at Chelmsford, but hung left and didn't run on when in the open (66-1); down from Class 5 and might have improvement in him, but doesn't fully convince.
5 (8)	We Still Believe Jason Hart / D Bourke	7yrs / 9st 7lb 3156-0 Spotlight	69	20/1	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
We Still Believe Three-time course winner; well behind Rock Armour (and others) over C&D on reappearance, but should be better for that run.
6 (4)	Sandret A Mullen / B Haslam	9yrs / 9st 7lb 721-27 Spotlight	71	15/2	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Sandret Three course wins including one over this trip this winter; most recent race didn't unfold to suit his hold-up ride; probably still in form; chance.
7 (5)	Desiderata Finley Marsh / T Faulkner	5yrs / 9st 1lb 500-14 Spotlight	75	3/1	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Desiderata Lightly raced; improved to make winning stable debut in 9.4f Class 6 Wolverhampton event off 59-day break in January; didn't back it up at the same venue next time but that was over 1m4f off just two days' rest; fresh today following 59-day pause and potentially still has more to give.
8 (6)	Stoneacre Cam Hardie / S Dixon	5yrs / 8st 7lb 570-85 Spotlight	71	40/1	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Stoneacre Lightly raced maiden; minor encouragement at Wolverhampton latest; needs to build on that.
