Ended a poor run of form when bouncing back at Wolverhampton last time. Only up 2lb today and has always run well next time after a win so should make another bold bid.

Went down by a short-head when last seen over this distance at Kempton. Off the same mark today he clearly has a big chance of going one better.

Beaten out of sight in last three races with heavy ground, good ground and AW all coming alike. Impossible to fancy him in such form.

Slightly longer trip not enough to cause any concern and ran well when second at Chelmsford latest over 1m2f. Seems to enjoy AW so not dismissed here.

Unsuccessful in 12 starts for current yard. Encouragement with a trio of placed efforts recently but well beaten last time over 1m5½f. Back in trip once more he might be able to get back on track.

Unplaced in four AW races but ran reasonably on one occasion. Tried over further most of this season but easily best run came over this trip. 3lb lower than that effort now and strip fitter second start after layoff.

Finished third on handicap debut at Haydock latest in bottomless ground. Eased 1lb and looks fairly enough treated if he is as good on AW (this first try). Trainer in great form.

In the frame in four of five AW starts to date. Latest second off same mark at Wolverhampton further evidence of her liking for the surface. Bit more needed but no reason she won't run well.

Beaten 37L on return from layoff at Salisbury. Back in trip to more suitable 1m4f here and may come on for the race but leap of faith required to fancy now.

Maiden of 12 races has been lacklustre in his last two runs and now transfers to AW desperately needing something to spark a revival.

Maiden who found 13 unlucky when short of room in second at Kempton a week ago. Would have gone very close there with a clear run so first win likely to come soon if continuing in same vein.

Forecasts

So Celebre (15/8), Clemento (4/1), Malt Teaser (9/2), Stepney (8/1), Second Page (8/1), Star Of Lombardy (10/1), Archimento (12/1), Best Example (16/1), I'm Running Late (33/1), Sakurajima (33/1), Onorina (33/1), Inke (50/1)

Verdict

A tricky puzzle for punters looking to get out but SO CELEBRE should go close. Beaten a short-head over 1m4f on Kempton's AW latest he is clearly a big player off the same mark. Also second and unchanged in the ratings is Malt Teaser and he was unlucky in running so there is no reason he can't go even closer here. Star Of Lombardy bounced back on the AW last time and she can go well again with a 2lb rise unlikely to make much difference.
