Returning from a break when finishing a neck second in a 7f handicap here a week ago. Won over this distance at Southwell in December and looks likely to play a leading role in this contest.

Disappointing 5L eighth at Kempton over this trip in November when returning from a break. Given another break since but holds claims on his earlier form in 2018.

Dual turf winner but could finish only fourth in a C&D handicap in January. Given a break since and worth a check in the market with a useful jockey booked to ride.

Put a disappointing effort here behind him when winning over 7f at Kempton last time out. Raised 3lb for that victory and is one to note as he seeks a third victory over this distance.

Placed on each of his last two starts including when a neck second in a novice contest over this C&D last time out. Top jockey booked to ride and an interesting runner on his return to handicaps.

Chasing a C&D hat-trick when finishing ½L second last time out. Given a short break since and is one for the shortlist racing off a mark 9lb higher than for his most recent victory.

50/1
Signs of ability when finishing sixth in a soft ground 1m novice event at Newbury on debut in 2017. Struggled in two subsequent starts including on debut for this yard a month ago. Market support would be notable switched to handicaps.

Forecasts

Motajaasid (11/4), High Acclaim (5/1), Mr Mac (5/1), Pheidippides (6/1), Ambient (7/1), Outside Inside (10/1), Dark Alliance (11/1), In The Red (12/1), Lacan (12/1), Blazed (12/1), Noble Peace (20/1), Faraway Fields (50/1)

Verdict

MOTAJAASID ran well on his return to action last time out and he can go one better than when finishing runner-up that day by taking this competitive handicap. Mr Mac has been in good form of late and having finished runner-up here last time out he can claim the same spot here while third place can go to In The Red who has a leading jockey in the saddle.
  1. Motajaasid
  2. Mr Mac
  3. In The Red
