Has improved a little with each run and was spotted doing some good late work at Wolverhampton last time, and that despite not getting the clearest of passages. May want a little further in time but this looks a suitable test. Chance.

Couple of promising efforts at Sandown last year but you'd be hard pressed to say he progressed, but nicely bred and there are all-weather winners in the family, so may yet improve. Needs to, but yard get plenty of winners here and not ruled out.

Already fairly well exposed as moderate, and although she's in good form at present and does have some course form to her name (third over 7f here in December) it will be a surprise if something does not progress past her. Place chances all the same

Exposed already as pretty moderate, but best effort came on the sand at Kempton over this trip in November (beaten half a length) and a repeat of that would give him a chance. However, couldn't repeat that latest, so needs to bounce back.

Looks ready for this step up to a mile after a one-paced third over 7f here last time out, that run an improvement on her previous effort here. Might have a bit more to come and another with e/w chances in an open contest.

Well beaten at big proces in maidens and not really setting the world alight now handicapped, finishing midfield both starts. Drips back in trip here, which may help, especially if there's pace on, but questions to answer at present.

Three runs haven't revealed much but took a big step forward on previous efforts when finishing midfield at Kempton last time, staying on late. Yard can get first time handicap winners so is worth a market glance at the very least.

Did little in three novice races last year and no better on handicap debut at Wolverhampton in October, weakening out of it late. Others look to hold stronger claims.

Was starting to look moderate but much better at Wolverhampton latest, only getting caught late on. That came off the back of a break, so possible things have just clicked now, and off same mark, has obvious chances of going two better here.

Forecasts

Father Ailbe (7/2), Imperial Red (4/1), Felisa (9/2), Ocean Side (9/2), Freebe Rocks (5/1), Sotomayor (7/1), Vice Marshal (10/1), Global Angel (12/1), Isoletta (14/1), The Night King (14/1)

Verdict

Quite an open race, ans a few can be given chances. It might be worth siding with VICE MARSHAL now he steps into handicaps, as his latest effort was much better than his previous two and his opening mark isn't too taxing. The yard can get them ready for handicaps too. The market might also tell us plenty about the chances of Imperial Red, another that's looked a bit disappointing but it's early days and improvement may yet be forthcoming. Freebe Rocks might take some catching if the first time visor does the trick.
