Vimy Ridge12
Age: 5|  Weight: 9-7| J: Josephine Gordon| T: A Bailey| OR:  75
5/1
Hasn't won since July 2015 despite coming close on a number of occasions, including when beaten just a length at Lingfield last time over five furlongs. Has form on Polytrack and should go close again.

Age: 6|  Weight: 9-7| J: R Winston| T: D K Ivory| OR:  75

Convincing winner at Ripon when last seen in June. Has switched stables since and wears a hood for the first time today, but must overcome the break.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-7| J: Michael J M Murphy| T: J S Moore| OR:  75
50/1
Has moved from Harry Dunlop's since winning when last seen at Wolverhampton in October. Goes up 4lb for that but is lightly raced enough to think that there could still be some improvement in him.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-6| J: Thomas Brown| T: E Walker| OR:  74
3/1
Consistent sort who never seems to be too far away and who is lightly raced for his age. Stays on the same mark as his good third last time over 5f and prefers this longer trip. Leading claims.

16/1
C&D winner who put in a couple of disappointing performances last season before a break of 109 days to today. Will need to rediscover his earlier form after the lay-off and the draw isn't ideal.

Hasn't impressed since moving from David Evans' in October. First time down in this class since that switch, but will need to improve from recent form to get involved.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-5| J: L P Keniry| T: George Baker| OR:  73
25/1
Loves this trip and has won over this C&D before. Recent performances haven't been as a bad as the bare form suggests, but something more will still be needed for him to be competitive with the leading contenders here.

Age: 7|  Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: P Hedger| OR:  72
7/1
C&D winner who has twice in recent months over this trip at Lingfield. Mark remains a little high, but definite place claims if continuing his recent good run.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-4| J: D A Parkes(5)| T: J Gask| OR:  72

Won his only start over C&D last June and has run some decent races since. Remains 4lb higher than at the time of that neck victory, but not out of the reckoning by any means.

Higher Courtt121
Age: 9|  Weight: 9-2| J: S Donohoe| T: Emma Owen| OR:  70
13/2
Dual winner back in 2011 in the US, but has struggled to recapture that winning form, having run only once between 2012 and 2016. Looks unlikely to get off the mark in Britain here in a first time tongue strap.

Something Luckyh17
Age: 5|  Weight: 8-12| J: J F Egan| T: D Steele| OR:  66

Has run poorly on most starts over the last year, including when well beaten on stable debut last time out at Lingfield. Hood on for the first time.

Q Cee58
Age: 4|  Weight: 8-11| J: Lulu Stanford(5)| T: E Stanford| OR:  65
25/1
Ran well enough in a series of maidens last year and remains open to improvement, but is drawn widest of all and is best watched on handicap debut.

Forecasts

Dream Farr (3/1), Anonymous John (4/1), Vimy Ridge (5/1), Higher Court (13/2), Bridge Builder (7/1), Geoff Potts (17/2), Picket Line (16/1), Nezar (20/1), Nag's Wag (25/1), Q Cee (25/1), Kashtan (50/1), Something Lucky (50/1)

Verdict

DREAM FARR prefers this trip to the sharper five furlongs that he's been running over recently. In addition to a win over this trip last month he has also been running some nice races in defeat and is taken to defy a career-high mark here. He faces a relatively weak looking field, but Vimy Ridge has finished within 2L of the winner on all three of his most recent starts and could go close once again, as well as C&D winner Geoff Potts. 1. Dream Farr 2. Vimy Ridge 3. Geoff Potts
