3/1
C&D winner in March when finishing a head in front of Nigg Bay before another solid run here over 7f off a 3lb higher weight. Goes well for his claimer and one for the shortlist.

Lost his way towards the end of his time with John Quinn and four starts here for new yard have not shown him to be back on the right path.

Beaten just one rival home in three starts since returning from a break and unlikely to play a part in the finish here.

C&D winner and six from 30 starts round here and has been in game and consistent form recently. Drops another 2lb here and worth a market check.

Course winner in December but has struggled since in three disappointing displays. Well beaten and never a factor in two turf starts last month.

Solid and consistent in four starts here since February and stayed on well in the final 100 yards in a Navan handicap last month finishing fourth of 23. Best form gives him a chance here.

Winner for the first time in seven last time out when finishing ¾L ahead of Annie Fior over 7f last month. Raised 3lb for that effort and could go well again.

Not much to shout about in four starts since the turn of the year and will need to improve to figure here.

Winner of six of his 39 AW starts including plundering a Lingfield 6f handicap in February. Could find life difficult to come off a strong pace here.

Shed her maiden tag over C&D three starts back but failed to back that up in January but showed plenty of promise on seasonal turf debut in a Navan handicap last month finishing third of 21 beaten ½L. Another bold show looks likely.

Without a win in ten starts here and now races off a 26lb lower mark than his last win which dates back to August 2016. Looks a tall order on form shown.

Did not get any luck in running in two starts here in November including a fourth of 14 beaten 4¼L over C&D. May need the spin on return.

Has only caught the eye on the one occasion in ten starts here when a 2L fifth of eight over 5f in March. Others hold stronger profiles.

Placed over 6f here in November but well held in three subsequent outings before finishing third of 10 beaten 3¾L over 5f last month. Not easy to completely discount.

Eacharn (3/1), Pillar (7/2), A Likely Story (6/1), Your Pal Tal (10/1), Chosen Rock (12/1), Ancient Astronaut (12/1), Nightflight (14/1), See You Mush (14/1), Dance Alone (16/1), Red All Star (16/1), My Good Brother (16/1), Secret Memories (16/1), Master Bond (25/1), Gopsies Daughter (25/1), Von Trapped (33/1)

Verdict

The early pace here good set the race up for the solid and consistent PILLAR who could possibly sit in behind fast starters Red All Star and Master Bond. C&D winner Chosen Rock who is back on a winning mark here and the consistent without winning here, Your Pal Tal can hit the frame.
