Off the track for 258-days when a 22L fifth of six over 2m4f at Lingfield latest. Entitled to have needed that run but big step forward needed against the same rival.

Ended four-year losing run on stable debut at Southwell before twice finishing third at the same course off today's mark under this 10lb claiming rider. Claims if not exactly well handicapped.

9/2
Point-to-point winner on good ground in Ireland back in May 2018 but struggled in three Rules starts over hurdles for previous yard. before last of five over fences at Exeter where he struggled at an early stage; hard to fancy.

4/1
Back over fences for the first time since March last year and last two runs over hurdles have been well below par. Has won in the mud in the past but bit to prove on current form.

6/1
Dual C&D winner seems a progressive chaser on the whole although was a little disappointing at Southwell latest after winning here the time before. Better than he showed latest but handicapper has the upper hand.

4/1
Maiden over fences often looks dangerously well in when things go right but after three incompletions in her last four starts there are doubts too. If she gets round she will likely go close here.

20/1
Good third in a 2m handicap hurdle at Worcester (good-to-soft) in May but unseated over fences at Huntingdon (good) later that month. Market support would be notable on stable debut.

Point winner but still never made the frame in eight starts. Latest handicap slide sees him 1lb out of the handicap here and others preferred.

Forecasts

Ramore Will (4/1), Ruby Yeats (4/1), Black Centaur (9/2), Shintori (6/1), Tara Bridge (13/2), Nautical Twilight (13/2), Finnegan's Garden (8/1), Soarlikeaneagle (16/1), Chivers (20/1)

Verdict

Much will depend on FINNEGAN'S GARDEN's participation after running respectably in a hotter race at Sandown yesterday as he would be the selection here. If he doesn't run today it may be worth chancing Ruby Yeats who looks for all the world to be on a winning mark when she gets things right. Dual C&D winner Shintori ought to go well also.
