10/3 |
Comedian Leader
Capped a consistent run since returning from wind surgery when breaking her duck on turf over C&D from the same stall 17 days ago; came right away with Havana Mojito that day and holds leading claims upped 3lb.

14/1 |
Hellavapace
Goes well here and better was expected back from a couple of months off behind two of these over C&D 17 days ago; possible she needed that and it wouldn't be a surprise to see her bounce back.

- Edvard Grieg
- D Egan / Dylan Cunha

10/3 |
Edvard Grieg
Regressive, ex-Irish maiden who's quickly been cut some slack by the handicapper; he's another 2lb lower than when among the favourites at Nottingham last time (ran okay in fifth) and is one to consider.

- Voltaic
- Molly Gunn / A W Carroll

5/1 |
Voltaic
Last June's C&D win for Molly Gunn came from a similar mark under an aggressive ride from a wide stall; the visor returns after one run without it and he's capable if the return to turf gees him up.

Admiral Fitz
Poor hurdler who's offered very little on the Flat, including on his handicap debut early in the month.

22/1 |
Cherry Hill
Didn't see out 1m2f on her comeback but her best efforts have come at Kempton and last year's turf runs were poor; isn't obviously fancied.
|

- Havana Mojito
- Darragh Keenan / J Gallagher

9/2 |
Havana Mojito
Well suited by switchback tracks and showed this trip within range when pushing Comedian Leader hard over C&D on his comeback 17 days ago; won second time out last season and there's a fair chance history repeats itself.

- Spirit La Adelita
- Rhys Clutterbuck / J & S Best

22/1 |
Spirit La Adelita
Poor for two previous trainers and offered little hope for new connections back from a layoff on the AW 11 days ago; Comedian Leader is clearly her yard's best shout.

|
- No News
- Lewis Edmunds / J R Jenkins
|
|
64
|
18/1 |
No News
Has done most racing on the AW and regressed last year; was said to have been outpaced throughout over 6f latest but his record at beyond 7f would be patchy at best.

- We'renotreallyhere
- Tyler Heard / D Steele
|
|

|
11/1 |
We'renotreallyhere
One of his better efforts back on turf over C&D 17 days ago but that came in a less-competitive affair and he's never been close to consistent, winning just one of his last 26 starts.

- Shop Local
- Charles Bishop / Miss S West

Shop Local
Four poor efforts for Jack Channon, latterly when tailed off on her handicap debut last August; would want to see good support before considering her.

- Heer's Sadie
- Christian Howarth / J & S Birkett

12/1 |
Heer's Sadie
Nothing to suggest she's best caught fresh, so there was a bit of promise in her C&D comeback behind two of these 17 days ago; her yard has been going well too, so a case could be made for this three-time 7f course winner.

- Rohilla
- K T O'Neill / S Dixon
|
|
|
40/1 |
Rohilla
Big prices and well beaten in eight runs on the AW; the switch to turf and first-time headgear will need to make quite a difference.
|
|
|
|
- Boleyn Forever
- Jack Doughty / J R Jenkins
|
|
|
66/1 |
Boleyn Forever
Massive prices for five runs last year (7f-2m); looks exposed as moderate and No News seems his yard's best chance.
