9/2
Dual C&D winner and two more wins over 5f here, all from higher marks. Also went reasonably well here last month when 5lb higher. Drops in class this time and it would not surprise to see that prompt a revival.

8/1
Profilic winner with 19 successes to his name, one of them being here over 5f. 2lb higher than most recent win at Wolverhampton in December. Although all wins have been over 5f, he has some good form over this trip. Competitive.

Dual C&D scorer, although best efforts have been over 7f. Not as good as that these days, but placed from today's mark last time out and enters calculations.

5/1
Took a little while to get on track for this trainer but ran well when 1L fourth at Wolverhampton in December. Off the boil again last time out at Southwell, but may have found 5f too sharp and now back over 6f he should be more competitive.

2-54, though one of those wins was over C&D in October from 2lb higher. Not able to match that on AW since and needs to raise his game on recent efforts to get his nose in front again.

6/1
Made the frame in her first three maidens over 5f/6f in late 2016, but unable to finish in the money in six handicaps and a classified contest since then. Has dropped 1lb to career low mark now, but still not easy to envisage a maiden success.

33/1
Sole win from 46 races came at Wolverhampton (5f) in December 2015. Was off the track for 16-months before returning in December, but five starts into his comeback he has not shown enough to suggest that a 3lb drop can earn him a second success.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Watson(7)| T: L Williamson| OR:  45
20/1
Best effort so far was over 7f on turf at Chepstow last July, when trained by John Quinn. Was unable to build on that and was well held on debut for this yard at Kempton on Saturday. Drops 2lb going into this, but not easy to make a case for her.

25/1
Sole win was on turf in France in 2014. Has made frame just twice from 18 attempts on All Weather, both at Dundalk. Reasonably consistent in the past year for all that lack of success and can't rule her out of the prizes in such a modest race.

50/1
0-27. Has been runner-up three times, two of those on AW at Wolverhampton and Newcastle over 5f/6f. Has been below that level of form for some time now and although 4lb drop may help, it doesn't look enough for her to break that duck.

8/1
Yet to finish within 12½L of the winner in any of his four starts from 5f-1m. First handicap start saw him well beaten from 4lb higher when last seen in July and has a lot on his plate unless he can show significant improvement.

Forecasts

Firesnake (10/3), Mighty Zip (9/2), Sir Harry Collins (5/1), La Fortuna (6/1), Justice Rock (7/1), Roy's Legacy (8/1), Double Dutch (8/1), She's Zoff (20/1), Little Cupcake (25/1), Pammi (25/1), Go Charlie (33/1), Celerity (50/1)

Verdict

Another very poor contest where caution is advised and the suggestion is MIGHTY ZIP, who might benefit from a drop in class. Roy’s Legacy and Firesnake are both respected in opposition, while Sir Harry Collins and Little Cupcake are others who could get involved.
  1. Mighty Zip
  2. Roy's Legacy
  3. Firesnake
