Last win came here over C&D in February but hasn't been in that sort of form on his most recent starts. Back down to a more realistic mark as a result but he needs a return to form if he's to figure.

Last win came on the AW towards the end of last year and while she's been a little disappointing on two starts since, she should appreciate the return to an artificial surface. Has been dropped 1lb in the handicap and has claims if she can learn to settle better in her races.

Three-time winner on the AW, all wins over this trip and not beaten far returned to this course earlier in the month over further. Drop back in trip bound to suit and he has a handy draw if he wants to go forward. Interesting runner.

Got back on the scoresheet with a win in a claimer last time out at Wolverhampton. Will find life tougher back in handicap company and hold up style probably best suited to other AW courses. Opposable from a wide draw.

Interrupted career of late and produced a disappointing effort on latest return at Wolverhampton. Drawn wider than ideal and probably best watched for now.

Improved to land a similar contest over C&D last time out but 10lb rise in the weights perhaps on the harsh side and slightly disconcerting he's not been seen since. May need another step forward to figure.

Better on the AW than he is on turf but not won since winning an apprentice handicap over C&D 18 months ago. Has a fair bit to prove after some poor recent runs on both turf and AW.

Last three runs have come here, winning over C&D two starts back when staying on gamely. Will appreciate the step back up in trip after a drop to 6f last time out and he's run well from higher marks in the past. Wide draw the main negative.

Dark Angel colt who fetched £240,000 as a yearling and is a half-brother to talented sprinter Rosie's Premiere. Stable have a fine record here and this colt justified favouritism over C&D in a maiden on debut. Handicap mark looks about right and every chance he can improve again. The one to beat with a less exposed profile than his rivals.

9/2
Justified favouritism at Kempton two starts back when making all despite looking a little awkward under pressure. Displayed a similar trait on return last time out at Kempton and has a bit to prove after that defeat.

Won three times last year but lost his way since. Yard usually get these types back to form at some stage but hard to fancy after his most recent outing. Declared a non-runner at Beverley on Monday.

Forecasts

Golden Goal (5/4), Etikaal (10/3), Al Reeh (9/2), North Creek (7/1), Coronation Day (16/1), Dark Side Dream (20/1), Lagenda (20/1), Outer Space (25/1), Joey's Destiny (33/1), Until Midnight (50/1), Flying Fantasy (50/1), Rouge Nuage (50/1)

Verdict

GOLDEN GOAL was an impressive winner on debut and he looks the one to beat with that course and distance success in the bag and more improvement to come. Coronation Day isn't without claims if she can settle better while Dark Side Dream has been running well at this course recently and should give another good account.
