10/1
Made all when scoring at Sandown and Salisbury last summer. Not seen since virtually pulled in valuable sale race at York in August and gelded since that run. Clearly better than when last seen.

Consistent as a juvenile finishing off with a narrow victory at Chelmsford. Handicap debut here and doesn't look that well treated though there could be more to come.

Made all on second start at Chelmsford in August and then found Listed class too hot in France on subsequent run. Now tries 6f for the first time since her debut and should have improvement in the locker.

Wins at 6 and 7f last autumn. Generally consistent since though still 12lb above last winning mark. Probably unsuited by surface at Southwell on latest.

The penny seems to have dropped and he is now chasing a hat-trick following wins at Newcastle and Southwell. 6lb higher in a much stronger contest but in current form has to be respected.

Age: 3|  Weight: 8-10| J: Edward Greatrex| T: A Watson| OR:  78| D
10/1
Generally consistent three-year-old but this is tougher task than normal and probably needs a career best though excellent stable continues in form.

Off the mark after a break over 5f here on Boxing Day. Probably ran to that form when third of four only run since and now looks ready for a step up to this longer trip.

Liberation Dayp133
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-9| J: David Probert| T: Tom Dascombe| OR:  77| C
11/2
Overcame a seven months absence when getting off the mark over 7f last month. Just last home so the drop in trip no bad thing and the runner up franked the form when winning last week. Cheek pieces now tried.

Forecasts

Coolagh Magic (5/2), Uncle Jerry (9/2), Fares Kodiac (9/2), Liberation Day (11/2), Klass Action (8/1), Oberyn Martell (10/1), Beleaguerment (10/1), Lovin (12/1)

Verdict

An open contest with a narrow vote going to LIBERATION DAY who receives weight from all his rivals. Coolagh Magic comes here at the top of his game and has to be respected. Lovin isn't easy to assess but is a likely improver who should be in the mix.
  1. Liberation Day
  2. Coolagh Magic
  3. Lovin
