5/4
Has been running consistently over 5f including two spins round here in December including last time out when beaten 1¼L as beaten favourite. Likely to be ready for his first run as a three-year-old.

Well beaten in two starts here over 7f since the turn of the year and need to find plenty of improvement to play a role here.

7/1
C&D winner last time out when beating nine rivals ½L last month. Has been raised 5lb for that effort and could be disadvantaged by the draw here.

7/1
Modest 52-rated handicapper for David Barron but showed plenty of promise on stable debut earlier in the month finishing fourth of 12 beaten 1¾L over 7f outrunning her 50/1 odds. Worth a market check.

25/1
Steadily improving with every run and possibly found the trip more to his likening earlier this month when finishing fourth of seven beaten 5L. Could be more improvement but tough draw.

Age: 3|  Weight: 9-2| J: Shane Foley| T: J Davison| OR:  56
7/1
Solid and consistent in three starts since the turn of the year including finishing second of 12 beaten ¾L behind the likeable and in form Highly Approved last time out. Another bold show looks likely.

33/1
Three quick runs in last month proved fruitless for connections including two starts at Wolverhampton and Kempton. Market likely to reveal expectations.

5/1
Finished 1L behind Clebourne last time out here over C&D last month. Filly remains on the same mark and capable of having her say given positive draw.

Finished behind two likable sorts in her last two starts beaten by Clebourne and Highly Approved. Will possibly improve here now back to favoured trip.

Age: 3|  Weight: 8-5| J: Sean Davis(5)| T: D H Kelly| OR:  45
66/1
Well beaten and never nearer in three gloomy displays towards the end of last year. Requires a chunk of improvement to play a role here.

Forecasts

It's All A Joke (5/4), La Novia (5/1), Lady Sandy (7/1), Downtown Diva (7/1), Clebourne (7/1), Shecanrally (17/2), Boatrace (25/1), Matter Of Time (25/1), Salty Sugar (33/1), Cross Cover (66/1)

Verdict

Shecanrally usually breaks well but from stall six she may have competition for the early lead from the returning impressive IT'S ALL A JOKE who has been running well without winning but looks the pick of these on seasonal debut. The solid Clebourne will be looking to come off the pace set by the early leader but may find the winner may already have flown.
  1. It's All A Joke
  2. Clebourne
  3. Shecanrally
