Struggled slightly since Lingfield win last March, but hasn't been too far away on most starts. Worth considering in first time cheekpieces.

Looked like the handicapper had his measure when beaten the last twice, slowly away both times. Down only 1lb and others look more likely winners.

Has been in fine form recently including a C&D win back in December. Handicap mark still looks to be workable, step back down in trip will suit and draw is ideal.

Encouraging fourth over C&D last time, though this is his sixth consecutive attempt at it and all three of his wins were back in 2014.

Inconsistent sort who would have a goo chance on the basis of her Yarmouth win back in August and a good second at Lingfield last time, but is far from reliable, and others look more solid options.

0-14 but has come close on a number of occasions, including here. All his best form is over 6f and the draw isn't ideal, but he does at least look well handicapped.

C&D winner who has shown more on his two most recent starts than for most of last year. Hasn't performed well here recently, however.

Tumbling down the weights but both wins so far have been on turf and much more will be needed on Tapeta debut.

Forecasts

Secret Bird (11/8), Noble Asset (9/2), Powerful Dream (9/2), K'gari Spirit (8/1), Annie Salts (10/1), Pearl Noir (10/1), Cee Jay (10/1), Desert Strike (16/1), Nora Batt (22/1), Mambo Spirit (40/1)

Verdict

SECRET BIRD has been putting in some great performances recently and looks to have conditions in his favour today against many unconvincing rivals. The best of the rest may prove to be K'gari Spirit, who should go close if transferring her recent form back here, followed by Powerful Dream in first time cheekpieces. 1. Secret Bird 2. K'gari Spirit 3. Powerful Dream
