0-11 career profile and fell at the first on his recent chase debut at Stratford, when sporting first-time cheek pieces. Those are retained here and it will be interesting to see what the market makes of his chance. On some hurdles form he would be one of the more likely contenders given a clear round.

3/1
Still seeking a first win under rules after 16 attempts. Has made the frame over fences several times. Handles fast ground and not ruled out over this longer trip, though clearly vulnerable.

Won here over slightly shorter in November (good) from 8lb higher but showed his best form since from today's mark when back here last time. Good or fast ground looks essential and he should get that here and he has stronger claims than a few of these.

Have to go back to 2013 for his last win and has looked a shadow of that performer for at least two years now. Impossible to recommend him in this.

4/1
Rattled off a hat-trick over hurdles in 2014, the last from 17lb higher than today. Runner-up four times from 21 subsequent starts, including from 1lb higher in December. Too inconsistent and plenty vulnerable enough to make appeal as a winner.

Forecasts

Phangio (11/8), Charlie Mon (3/1), Kapricorne (4/1), Walkami (13/2), Trafalgar (10/1), What Larks (12/1)

Verdict

A very weak affair where Walkami would not have to be anything special to break his duck and a market check is strongly advised after his early spill last time. However, PHANGIO likes it here, goes well on the forecast ground and came back to form last time, so he looks a safer proposition. Charlie Mon and Kapricorne could fight out the minors.
  1. Phangio
  2. Charlie Mon
  3. Walkami
