Limited promise in maiden company at up to 1m4f so far this spring. Beaten 26L on soft ground here over that distance earlier this month and making his handicap debut dropped in trip having been gelded in the interim period.

Beaten 2L on debut over 1m at Lingfield in February. Held the last twice and worth a check in the market on her handicap and turf debut here.

Best effort since being gelded came when finishing runner-up over 7f at Salisbury (good-to-firm) earlier this month. Previous turf effort on soft ground probably best ignored and an interesting runner today.

Successful over C&D on soft ground earlier this month and ran well to finish third off this 4lb higher mark at Salisbury (good-to-firm) subsequently. Drop back in trip should suit and likely to run well once more.

Making his handicap debut and having his first run since being gelded when finishing a well beaten 12th of 13 over 1m2f at Bath (firm) last time. Probably best watched dropping in trip here.

Verdict

C&D winner LOVE AND BE LOVED can register his second success here by taking this concluding handicap. The winner was successful on soft ground on her penultimate start but proved she handles better ground when finishing third over 1m at Salisbury subsequently. Opening Time is another note in this contest having finished runner-up over this distance at Salisbury last time out while Topmeup has been running well recently and is likely to run her race once more.
