3/1
C&D winner who has looked handicapped to his best recently, and isn't being given much help by the handicapper. Couldn't make the most of a much lower all-weather rating last time, though it's worth noting that he's 3-3 here.

Makes her seasonal reappearance but was in good form at the end of last season, both on the all-weather and the turf. Claims if overcoming that absence on her first run for a new trainer.

6/1
Winner at Lingfield in May but remains 5lb higher in the handicap and is best watched, though his run at Chelmsford last time can be discounted due to his prohibitive all-weather mark.

2/1
Recent improver who has won four of his last six starts, but has only had his turf mark raised 11lb during that time. Needs to find further improvement here but that's not impossible.

10/1
Ran a solid race on handicap debut at Wolverhampton last time out (5f, standard), and is dropped 2lb after finishing fourth. Has looked a little difficult to win with prior to that, though, and makes only his second start on turf here.

7/1
Makes his handicap debut having run some fair races in maidens up to this point. This trip seems fine for him (he doesn't seem to have a preference between this and 6f), and no surprise if he goes close off a fair opening mark.

Only narrowly denied at Doncaster last time and remains on the same mark now, but may find this to be a slightly tougher race.

Recent Lingfield scorer (off only 3lb less), but was helped by the way that race panned out and looks vulnerable to younger, more improving types here.

Forecasts

Major Valentine (2/1), Satchville Flyer (3/1), Secretfact (4/1), Penny Dreadful (5/1), Zipedeedodah (6/1), Hollander (7/1), The Daley Express (10/1), Swendab (16/1), Mysterious Glance (20/1)

Verdict

Having shaped with promise during maidens, perhaps HOLLANDER can get the job done on his handicap debut. He was never far away on any of his previous starts, and seems to be on a fair opening mark on that basis. Improvement is possible now moving from on from a sphere where he could never quite make the grade. Secretfact is in good form at the moment but remains on a workable mark, while Mysterious Glance should be feared if returning in the same form as last year.
