One turf and one AW win to his name and generally a consistent sort who gives it his best shot. Finished fast when second over shorter at Brighton last time and is respected at this trip with cheekpieces fitted for the first time.

Won a minor event at this track last June and was generally consistent during his juvenile campaign. A close seventh at Sandown on his first outing since being gelded, he is sure to have benefited from the run and is respected.

After three starts in LIngfield AW maidens, he makes his handicap debut on turf. Hard to know what to expect, but jockey booking suggests he is quietly fancied by connections.

Three runs in maidens preceded a Lingfield handicap in which he was third, suggesting the extra distance of this contest would suit. Unexposed and a likely improver.

A winner twice on the AW, but yet to get off the mark on turf. Started slowly and was not disgraced at Brighton last time, but others look more interesting.

Has had three runs in AW maidens, shaping best on his last start when third at Lingfield. Does not look especially well handicapped on those efforts, but is in good hands and improvement is expected.

Won a weak maiden race at Brighton in October, and was behind Glendun when fifth at Yarmouth on his first run since being gelded. Has plenty to do on these terms.

Showed promise in three maidens and a handicap as a juvenile and has been gelded since. Good stable will place him to advantage at some stage, but this is competitive on his return from a break.

Sent off favourite when only seventh of 10 in a Thirsk handicap at the end of last month. Presumably he is thought capable of better, but he has something to prove for the time being.

Has failed to land a blow in three maidens and makes his first appearance in handicap company. Wears a tongue tie for the first time and, given his shrewd stable, is worth a check in the betting market.

Has been placed in three of his nine starts, but his best form seems to be at AW tracks. Others have more appealing profiles.

A sighter at Newmarket was followed by two solid AW efforts and she now goes handicapping. Unexposed and certainly worth considering if the markets speaks for her.

One win in eight starts on turf, she ran respectably at Windsor last time. Jockey booking catches the eye, but there are others with more persuasive claims.

Verdict

Several unexposed types in this, including Miss Osier, Suspect Package, Trade Route and The Lacemaker, but the selection is GLENDUN, who looked an improved performer at Yarmouth and is entitled to have come on for the run. Mister Blue Sky shaped well in fair company last time and is respected.
