16 race maiden but beaten just shy of 3L when fourth to Kingstreet Lady over C&D latest (Hurricane Alert sixth), and returns for his second start for this trainer off the same mark.

Back to back course successes here in 2012 (5F) for Ed McMahon, but hasn't managed to work his way back to the front in 37 subsequent attempts. Dropping in the weights and returned to turf (absent since early February).

Lightly raced with four of her seven career starts coming at Bath. Probably needed her reappearance run (off since June 2016) and slipping in the weights but needs to show more on balance before being of any significant interest.

Saves her best for this track and despite not having won since September 2015 (here over 5F), she was twice a runner up over 5F at this track in August 2016 (once beaten a nose by Molly Jones). Impossible to rule out.

The promise delievered at Chelmsford in September 2016 when third over 1m to Bazzat evaporated quickly when last of 15 in a 1m2f Chelmsford seller in October, and has been worryingly absent since. Hard to believe this radical drop in trip will be the answer.

Last of thirteen when trying 1m4f at Chepstow in August 2016 having earlier raced over this kind of trip at this track early last season. Dropped in the weights, and any market support could prove informative.

Veteran who won at this track three times for former trainer Tony Newcombe. Returned from an 18 month absence in Jersey during April (stable debut) and surely a back number these days on that evidence.

C&D winner in September 2016 under Josephine Gordon (good to soft), so could prove suited by a deluge. Below par when last of twelve to Kingstreet Lady here earlier this month but much better latest and respected.

Not won for quite some considerable time (December 2015) and generally out of form for the majority of the winter on the AW. Handicap mark in free-fall as a result.

Not won on turf since his juvenile days in 2014 (Brighton; August 2014) and generally best handled by Luke Morris, who was aboard the last time he went close at Chelmsford in December.

Still to reach the frame in nine career starts and well beaten twice over C&D this month already, so surely better to look elsewhere.

With Simon Crisford when winning over 7F on Tapeta at Wolverhampton in November 2015, but it's been nothing but backward steps thereafter resulting in a current career low mark of 42. Might have needed the run at Wolverhampton recently (first for eight months), but vulnerable over this trip.

Course winner many moons ago in October 2010 but well out of sorts for a prolonged period of time and perhaps age is catching up with this seven time winner from 120 career starts.

Forecasts

Cee Jay (10/3), Angelito (9/2), Hurricane Alert (11/2), Catalinas Diamond (7/1), Burauq (7/1), Mostashreqah (10/1), Wilspa's Magic (10/1), Sabato (12/1), Royal Normandy (14/1), Majestic Girl (16/1), Arizona Snow (16/1), Zophilly (20/1), Diamond Vine (20/1), Molly Jones (20/1), Thewestwalian (25/1), Allen's Folly (33/1), My Meteor (50/1)

Verdict

No shortage of runners, but this is as moderate a contest as one would hope to witness. Finding the winner is something of a test of stamina rather than the speed which will be required over this fast five and a half furlongs. Cee Jay, Molly Jones and Catalinas Diamond have all demonstrated their liking for this track whilst Burauq was much better recently. However, the pin falls upon HURRICANE ALERT who met trouble in the run under a penalty here behind Kingstreet Lady when bidding to follow up a decisive Yarmouth victory.
  1. Hurricane Alert
  2. Catalinas Diamond
  3. Molly Jones
