In decent form of late, finishing in the frame in competitive handicaps at Tipperary (1m1f) and Navan (1m5f) on last two starts. This looks weaker, and he ought to make a bold bid.
Good third over C&D in April, and not beaten far at Wetherby on penultimate start, but put in a moderate effort at Haydock last time, and is proving a little tricky to predict.
Runner-up at Newcastle (7f) in October, but balance of his form makes him look poorly handicapped unless he can turn over a new leaf at this longer trip.
Hasn't really fulfilled early promise, and although he's not been disgraced in three handicap starts, he needs to show more mettle to take advantage of his falling mark. Cheekpieces he wore last time are retained.
Both his recent wins have come over an extended 1m½f at Wolverhampton, the latest three weeks ago, but he has won here in the past. Has stamina to prove at this trip, but will go close if he sees the trip out.
Not hit peak form this season, but gradually getting there, and more encouragement when fourth of 12 to Just Wait in a 1½m apprentice event at Doncaster last time. Claims if stepping up again as expected with tongue tie he wore last time retained.
Has form over C&D, and on a reasonable mark, but his best efforts in recent seasons have come at around 1m on Fibresand, and others preferred in these conditions.
One or two respectable runs this year, but her bad days outnumber her good ones, and she is opposable on balance.
Won at Brighton as a juvenile for Mark Johnston, but has lost his way, and has presumably been hard to train. Fallen to a basement mark now, but no sign that he can take advantage.
Remains a maiden, and although he ran one of his better races when third of 9 to Izvestia in seller at Ripon last time, he will need to do better still to break his duck here.
Won at Thirsk (1½m) in July 2017, but it's been downhill all the way since, and he failed to make the frame last year despite the handicapper's best efforts. Well held on return, and tried in eyeshields now.
Longstanding maiden who ran well a couple of times early last season, but has been soundly beaten on all four starts this year, and doubtful the refitting of blinkers will have a dramatic effect.
Runs mostly on the AW, but ran respectably on return to turf at Musselburgh last month in a visor. Ran poorly in that headgear last time, though, and back in blinkers now. Risky.
Just the four wins in her 75-race career, but did at least refind a bit of form when second at Ripon in August. Below form on final 2018 start, but can go well fresh, so not without a chance on this return.
Forecasts
Machiavelli (3/1), Seaborough (4/1), Motahassen (5/1), Allux Boy (13/2), Star Of Valour (8/1), Sosian (10/1), Muqarred (12/1), Ninepin Bowler (14/1), Hayward Field (28/1), Royal Liberty (33/1), Tarnhelm (33/1), Prince Consort (50/1), Lord Rob (50/1), Graceful Act (50/1)
MACHIAVELLI makes a long trek and looks the one to beat on his most recent efforts in slightly better races in Ireland. Allux Boy isn't certain to stay, but has recent winning form to his name, and will be a big player if his stamina holds, while it would be no surprise to see Motahassen get close to his best after a more encouraging effort at Doncaster.
