German raider who was a dual winner earlier in the season but not as good since, including latest seventh on the AW at Deauville (6f) in October. Shaped well on these shores previously so worth a look at.

C&D winner who profited with three victories last year. Showed he remained in good spirit when third in 7f Lingfield handicap in January. Leading claims if showing that effort once again.

8/1
C&D winner whose last win came at Lingfield in December. Since turned out creditable second at Wolverhampton (7f) and should give another bold account of herself. Considered.

Has been holding her form well during the winter and used that to land career best victory at Lingfield (7f) in mid-January. This demands more but clearly in good heart and has top jockey on board.

16/1
Has had a fine career but is now on a long losing streak. Showed he was in good heart when third at Lingfield last time but this will demand more if he was to win this.

Had been in and out of form recently but stepped up markedly when good winner of C&D handicap during last month. Now up 4lb but should be no surprise if he was to go well again. Solid claims.

Losing record dates back 11 starts and was further below form after some encouraging efforts when sixth of 10 (6f) last month. More improvement needed now.

Unreliable sort who has one win from 24 flat victories. Never looked like mounting a challenge when weakening fourth at Newcastle (6f) last time and now first-time hood is applied.

Forecasts

Mohareb (13/8), Storm Over (10/3), Commander Han (6/1), Fizzy Feet (6/1), Rock On Baileys (8/1), Prince of Rome (14/1), Gracious John (16/1), With Caution (20/1), Gamgoom (22/1)

Verdict

A whole host of horses come into this race in good heart but preference is for previous C&D winner STORM OVER, whose victory was more than impressive here last time out and shaped as if the hike in the weights should be no issue. Rock On Baileys has also been profitable on the AW and over further trips but this drop to 6f may yield some improvement out of her, while Fizzy feet and Mohareb have been running to career-best levels this season and may be able to serve it up to the leading protagonist if on best form.
  1. Storm Over
  2. Rock On Baileys
  3. Fizzy Feet
