9/1
Much better record on the AW than turf as he underlined when scoring over 6f at Kempton in October. Latest effort was poor, but could bounce back on a surface he enjoys.

3/1
Each of his three wins have come on the AW and the second of them was achieved over C&D in October. Fair effort off this mark at Wolverhampton a week ago and has decent claims.

Last victory was achieved in December, 2017, when trained by Dean Ivory. First start for this trainer and competes off a fair mark.

3/1
On a lengthy losing run, but latest effort when a close third over C&D was much more like it. Down 1lb and can get in the shake-up again if able to build on that display.

4/1
Won a 6f novice contest when trained by Richard Hannon, but has finished out of the frame in four starts for current handler. Much better when a close sixth over 6f at Kempton last time, however, and has prospects off 1lb lower dropped in trip.

Decent efforts on last three starts over this distance at Newcastle. Likely to give it his best shot again, but has little wriggle room off 1lb lower.

Regular at Southwell and confirmed his liking for Fibresand when winning over 6f there earlier this month. Bit to prove down in trip on this surface off 3lb higher.

Returning from a lengthy break when a well-beaten eighth of 10 at LIngfield 15 days ago. Questions to answer for the time being and is best watched.

Forecasts

Joegogo (3/1), It's All A Joke (3/1), Princely (4/1), Cappananty Con (6/1), Wiff Waff (6/1), Top Boy (9/1), Pearl Acclaim (20/1), Little Miss Daisy (33/1)

Verdict

Top Boy and It's All a Joke have fair claims at the top end of the handicap, but PRINCELY shaped with much more promise last time and may be ready to strike off this lower mark dropped in trip. Cases can also be made for Cappananty Con, Joegogo and Wiff Waff.
  1. Princely
  2. It's All A Joke
  3. Joegogo
