5/1
C&D specialist who last won here in February, not quite so impressive since but has definite claims returning to a course where he has always done well off a handicap mark that should prove to be fair for him. Has one of the more experienced riders on board.

Noted staying on without ever being competitive last time. Represents a yard without a winner since October. Remains 4lb above the mark for a narrow success for Kevin Morgan at Chelmsford in November and looks in need of respite from the handicapper.

5/2
Losing run has extended to 18 races but has claims on her last two C&D runs which are her best efforts this year. Rider has partnered 18 winners this term.

Sole win in 18 starts came over C&D. Shaped better 10 days ago in first time cheekpieces and extra furlong will help here.

Has been campaigned over a variety of distances ranging from 1m-2m. Yet to trouble the judge and stable are without a winner since July.

Broke his duck at the 29th time of asking but only beat two home next time. Off the track since and profile is not particularly appealing.

Winner of nine races here including a C&D victory in December and not disgraced since. Back on the same winning mark and not to be overlooked in an uncompetitive heat.

Winner for Richard Fahey as a juvenile but well beaten in all 14 starts for current yard. Hard to fancy at present.

Will be trying to open his account at the 20th time of asking. Showed glimpses of ability in 2015 but nothing more recently.

Has been ridden from the front and from off the pace. The latter tactics have produced the better outcomes but the blinkers and tongue-tie still need to stimulate significant improvement.

Forecasts

The Dukkerer (5/2), Makhfar (5/1), Outlaw Torn (5/1), Moi Aussie (7/1), Kafeel (8/1), Palindrome (10/1), Pivotal Dream (10/1), Gamesters Lad (12/1), Pipers Piping (18/1), Fishergate (18/1), The Greedy Boy (33/1)

Verdict

James Given has managed to secure the services of one of the more sought after apprentices for THE DUKKERER. She is on a long losing run but has been going well around here recently and on one those occasions today's rider was on board. A reproduction of her latest effort would be good enough. Kafeel would be interesting if turned out after his fourth in the Brighton 4:00 on Tuesday. Moi Aussie will appreciate the longer trip whilst Pipers Piping has been running well around here and should be thereabouts.
