Still a maiden on the Flat after five starts but fairly useful over hurdles. Flat mark probably overestimates him but has performed well at this course in the past and must be of interest in a race as weak as this.

Slow from the stalls on debut and failed to show much that day. This trip certainly looks more up his street and he could be a player depending on how much he learned on debut just two-weeks ago.

Didn't enjoy sole Flat outing on debut when whipping round after leaving the stalls. Shown very little over hurdles subsequently and not been seen since April 2015. Tough to fancy.

Shaped with some promise on final bumper start. That form doesn't look strong enough to make a dent here mind.

Won at this course on turf and has much fewer question marks than many in this field. Promising fifth of 12 on reappearance last week and likely to be of warm order provided he's come on for that run. Looks to be the one to beat.

Unplaced on five starts to date and only beaten two home in the last four of those. Opposable off the back of a break on yard debut.

Forecasts

Ayr Of Elegance (1/2), Darebin (9/4), Treble Strike (10/1), Marauder (16/1), Worthy Spirit (66/1), Respectability (66/1)

Verdict

AYR OF ELEGANCE looks like the one to beat on paper. His recent reappearance at Kempton was encouraging and he probably wouldn't need to improve on that to take a hand here. Marauder is unexposed and this looks like a more appropriate kind of test than the mile tried on debut. Darebin has been in form over hurdles and looks the best of the rest. 1. Ayr Of Elegance 2. Marauder 3. Darebin
