20/1
Won three times here in the past but last of five on two most recent outings on the AW at Lingfield. Better form prior to that when third at Lingfield over 5f in February. Won off a 6lb lower mark over C&D last October and worth a check in the market here.

Beaten 2½L into fourth at Lingfield on the AW earlier this week and had finished 3L third over 5f here on firm ground prior to that. Won a 5f event here off a 2lb higher mark last July and an interesting runner today.

Winner of two of her six starts to date including over C&D on good-to-firm ground in October. Finished fourth off this mark over 6f having stumbled leaving the stalls on her seasonal debut at Lingfield on the AW last month and one for the shortlist today.

Finished in the first three twice in six starts but well beaten in two outings this season. Last of ten at Windsor (good-to-soft) earlier in the week and probably best watched at present.

Progressive three-year-old and winner of his last two starts including when dead-heating on seasonal debut over C&D on firm ground in April. Races off a 5lb higher mark here but every chance he can complete his hat-trick.

Last time out winner over C&D on soft ground when defeating his nearest rival by a head last month. Races off a career high mark following a 2lb rise and interesting to see how she fares in this.

Finished a head runner-up over 6f at Kempton on the AW in February but well beaten when last of eight over the same distance on his turf return at Thirsk (good-to-firm) last month and probably best watched here.

Off the mark at the second time of asking at Nottingham (good) over 5f last September. Beaten favourite when third twice this year including behind an impressive winner last time and interesting dropping slightly in trip.

Chasing a hat-trick but could finish only sixth having been slowly away over C&D on firm ground last week. Had previous scored in first time blinkers at Windsor (good-to-firm) over 6f and interesting to see if she can repeat that effort today.

Placed over 5f here at the start of last month and finished third over C&D in a five runner event on firm ground last time out. Handicap mark is falling and has won off higher marks in the past.

Forecasts

Trick of The Light (2/1), Mr Pocket (5/2), Rosealee (7/1), Wild Dancer (7/1), Babyfact (9/1), Go Amber Go (12/1), Geoff Potts (20/1), Burning Thread (20/1), Sumou (25/1), Swendab (33/1)

Verdict

MR POCKET can complete his hat-trick by taking this extended 5f handicap. The selection was successful over C&D last time out and is likely to be suited by what should be a strong pace with a number of these having raced close to the pace in the past. Trick Of The Light bumped into a progressive rival lat time out and she is taken to finish second for a yard who are in good form at present (9/33) while the lightly raced Wild Dancer is another who is likely to be suited by a strong early pace and she can claim third.
