4/9
$350,000 yearling; has progressed with each and every start, showing a solid level of form in the process; made all, and stayed on strongly to beat White Coat by 2¾L when dropped back to 1m at Chelmsford in February.

£35,000 juvenile; an odds-on winner at the second time of asking in a 6f Nottingham maiden in July; nowhere near as effective since in much stronger races over 7f; gelded; tries a new trip (pedigree offers hope).

250,000gns yearling; 3-3 since switched to handicapping on the AW, with 1m victories at Kempton, Newcastle and Wolverhampton; 3lb higher than when clinging on to beat Balance Of Power by a head under Cieren Fallon latest.

14/1
35,000gns yearling; 33/1 winner of a 6f York maiden on debut in June 2018 before gradually stepping up in class; form tailed off towards the end of the turf season, and one can't help but worry about his stamina reserves (at 1m) on AW debut.

Five Helmets177
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-8| J: Jamie Gormley(3)| T: I Jardine| OR:  73| BF
50/1
Quick ground Beverley nursery winner (7½f) for Tom Dascombe in August 2018; off the track since finishing second in a Wolverhampton seller (7f) in October; tough to fancy against these rivals on debut for Carrutherstown trainer Iain Jardine.

Forecasts

Kinver Edge (4/9), Alkaamel (2/1), Hesslewood (14/1), Loch Ness Monster (28/1), Five Helmets (50/1)

Verdict

The pair to concentrate upon are the four-timer seeking Alkaamel and the progressive KINVER EDGE. January's C&D scorer Alkaamel has a perfect record on the AW and is versatile in terms of racing surface. Although clinging on at the finish at Wolverhampton latest, he travelled through the vast majority of that race as being head and shoulders above his three rivals, so a subsequent 3lb rise in the weights isn't overly punitive. However, the preferred choice is the mount of James Doyle. The Godolphin 3yo has progressed with each and every racecourse appearance, showing a solid level of form in the process. He ought to be tough to beat on handicap debut from an opening mark of 86.
