Winner at Leicester last season and has gone well here. Soon pushed along with no response in a seller here last time over 6f. Longer trip will help but hard to recommend based on that effort.

Third of five behind older horses in a poor maiden last time. Longer trip will help but has not done enough to be convincing.

Has shown minor promise in Ireland and on debut for new yard over 1m earlier this month. Weakened close home and drops in distance tonight. Blinkers are tried and good rider booked (3-17 for yard and a 13 point profit).

Thirteen race maiden whose two best recent efforts have come here. Has looked a difficult ride on more than one occasion.

Makes handicap debut having had three runs over an inadequate trip. Attracted support at Pontefract last season so a market move, at this modest level, would be intriguing. Sire gets his share of AW winners but stable are 0-18 since the start of the year with just two runners troubling the judge.

Irish raider has found a suitably poor race. Has shown signs of improvement from a low base on last two starts. Steps up in distance to a trip that ought to suit. One to watch in the market.

11/4
Has a good draw that will suit his front running style. Only moderate but has been well placed by his trainer to land two races. They include a C&D success agains a similar level of opponent last November. A further rise in the weights, following a hard fought victory at Chelmsford, may have taken his measure for now.

Stable do well here at this time of the year. Needs to break on terms (yet to do so in four starts) to have a remote chance in a poor race.

Was not beaten as far last time in first time cheekpieces. Now tackles 7f for the first time for a yard that have a six percent strike rate here.

Different trips on a variety of surfaces have made little difference to a filly who has only beaten three horses home in five career starts.

Forecasts

Viola Park (11/4), Lady Morel (4/1), Luduamf (9/2), Albizu Campos (11/2), Jack Blane (13/2), Fast Kar (7/1), Lady Volante (15/2), Bismarck The Flyer (10/1), Scealtara (16/1), Lily Fontana (20/1), Tink (33/1), Sallee (40/1)

Verdict

Few of these inspire but any market signals indicating confidence for a runner should be heeded. LADY MOREL has more going for her now that she has blinkers on for the first time and drops in trip. She ran well enough to this distance at Chelmsford last time to suggest she can win a race as weak as this. Jack Blane is interesting now that he makes his handicap debut over a trip more in line with his pedigree. The AW surface adds further to his prospects and he is definitely one to monitor for an early market move. Viola Park will get the run of the race up front and that could carry him to a place at least.
