16/1
Ex-Godolphin inmate who won a weak race on his first start for this yard after being gelded at Wolverhampton in December winning with plenty in hand (wore first-time tongue tie). Makes his handicap debut here with a hood added for the first time and with handicapper taking few chances.

Acquired by new yard for 26,000 gns recently having won 10 AW races. Races on turf off a significantly lower mark and goes for second success on the surface. Looks in need of help from the handicapper and to find improvement for the change of scenery.

Winner off a 2lb lower mark over 6f at Chelmsford earlier this month. Has been placed here in better company and yard are going well at present.

Yet to make the frame on turf but was not beaten far at Thirsk last time. Drops in the weights following a couple of runs over 6f. Back to his best trip here and competing at the right level. One to check in the market with rider on board who has partnered 37 of the yard's 111 winners in the past five seasons for a 41 points profit.

8/1
Easy winner of two races over a mile in the space of a week last summer, although he was disqualified from the latest after traces of a banned substance were discovered. Cheekpieces are now tried having disappointed last time and a drop in the weights will further assist.

Weak in the market and missed the break before finishing fourth over this trip at Lingfield last time. Has something to find at the weights and stable, who have a 14 percent strike rate for the past five seasons, are just 1-27 this year.

Rated far lower on turf than he is on the AW he ran creditably last time out when second here over 6f. Much better over 7f and should run another solid race.

Forecasts

Realize (11/8), Suqoor (3/1), Vroom (11/2), Lastmanlastround (6/1), Imperial State (8/1), Until Midnight (8/1), Plucky Dip (8/1), Bumptious (14/1), Song Of Shadows (16/1)

Verdict

Imperial State is interesting judged on his best form of last summer although the drop in trip is a concern. Realize has changed yards recently and needs to find a few pounds for the switch as the handicapper appears to have his measure. Until Midnight and Suqoor appeal at the weights and are reverting to their best trip for this. LASTMANLASTROUND is relatively lightly raced and has now won two of his last three races. His latest victory was boosted by the runner-up scoring a few days later and a 2lb rise in the weights may not be enough to halt his progress.
