20/1
Pedigree isn't particularly exciting but shaped with promise on debut and could progress from that if ready to go again after an absence. Will have to tackle faster ground and a slightly hotter field this time though.
Point-to-point winner who was well backed on debut under rules but just struggled for a turn of foot. Will no doubt have learned plenty from that but he is probably after a stronger test of stamina.
£16,000 buy and a half-brother to multiple winner and 133-rated No Comment. Showed very little on debut when tailed off but trainer has sent bumper winners to this course so any market support would be interesting.
Caught the eye when getting going late on his debut at Kempton and same could be said for his Lingfield effort last time. The hill here may help him get a little closer to his rivals should find a couple too good.

Promising efforts on both his starts under rules and not beaten far either time. Should have won on debut and sets the standard for the rest to aim at on form. Trainer in flying form over the last couple of weeks running at 25% (5-20).

Forecasts

Searching For Gold (1/1), Sliding Doors (15/8), Arthington (6/1), Billy Elliott (14/1), Swinging Concerto (16/1), Delatite (20/1)

Verdict

SLIDING DOORS looks like the one to beat having gone very close on both his bumper starts to date and more experience than most in this field. Searching For Gold will want a stronger test of stamina but wasn't beaten far at Southwell last time so he's capable of better while Artington is another who shapes like he wants further but has shown a respectable level of form.
