Three wins from 38 starts and been in particularly poor form this winter. Probably needs to get down to his last winning mark to get competitive.

One win from 22 starts and seems to be better over a little further than the minimum trip these days. Finished a good second of 12 last time over 6f at Southwell but needs to prove he still has the speed for races of this nature.

C&D winner who should enjoy this return to the minimum trip at this track. Certainly well-handicapped on old form and last win came with this rider on top. Good chance on form.

Seems to enjoy the straight track and stiff finish of Newcastle and may just prefer that kind of test to this. Respected all the same having won on this tapeta surface already.

Course winner that hasn't got his head in front since 2014. Unplaced on last 13 starts, ten of those for this yard and hard to fancy from this draw.

Arguably very unlucky not to get his head in front last time when bumped by the winner. Stewards enquiry found that not enough interference occurred but that's a matter of opinion and he may well have won that day. Handicapper has left him on the same mark and every chance of gaining compensation.

Best effort to date when going close two starts back but disappointed last time as favourite. Appears to run her better races away from galloping tracks so this could suit here; may go close.

Unplaced on all eight starts to date and this significant drop in trip looks more like an act of desperation than a calculated plan.

C&D winner. Got his head in front for the first time in two years in the summer but not really transferred that form to the AW this winter. Capable from this mark but he was a very disappointing last of 12 at this course most recently and needs to bounce back.

Unplaced on all nine starts to date and he needs the absence to have brought him on bundles. Hard to fancy.

Forecasts

Eland Ally (11/4), Chandresh (4/1), Lady Bacchus (9/2), Tribesman (11/2), Fuel Injection (15/2), Secret Millionaire (8/1), Pushkin Museum (8/1), Ambitious Boy (14/1), Bilash (33/1), Master Pekan (33/1), Teepee Time (66/1)

Verdict

ELAND ALLY was dealt a harsh blow in the stewards room at Lingfield last week when failing to get the race after a significant bump from the winner. He should be able to gain compensation for that loss in what looks like a weak event here. Chandresh was a shade disappointing that day but this may be an even easier race so may gain a place. Secret Millionaire's last win came with Tom Marquand on top and he may be able to get involved here off a mark that looks dangerous. 1. Eland Ally 2. Chandresh 3. Secret Millionaire
