On good terms with himself, winning last two including here a week ago. Penalty to contend with now but in good form.

Highly tried on the grass in his autumn campaign but a proven performer at this game and scored in a similar race around here this time last year.

8/1
Not the most prolific on the AW and was well held here on previous visit in November. Similar tale over 6f at Lingfield latest and others more likely now with handicapper due to give him a break after this race.

Outpaced here on New Year's Day but not beaten all that far, races from 1lb out of the handicap here and will be doing well to defy it.

8/1
Great strike rate on the AW, recording fourth win in eight attempts at Lingfield last month. Hasn't run around here before but a big danger if taking to the fibresand.

Went close in C&D event last month before slightly lesser effort at Lingfield latest, entitled to his chance back around here and likely to be there at the death.

Filly has won a Wolverhampton maiden but that came well over a year ago and little sign of a follow-up since.

Forecasts

Captain Lars (5/4), Dungannon (9/2), Crosse Fire (9/2), The Big Lad (8/1), I'll Be Good (8/1), Archie Stevens (10/1), Krystallite (25/1)

Verdict

Top-weight Captain Lars couldn't be on better terms with himself right now and looks sure to run another big race. DUNGANNON however gets some relief here after a testing autumn on turf and he can make the most of it. The Big Lad must rate a huge danger if taking to this venue, given his excellent strike rate in this sphere. 1. Dungannon 2. Captain Lars 3. The Big Lad
