One piece of form in three bumpers and never figured after a slow start on Flat debut at Kempton recently. Low grade handicaps likely to see him in a better light in due course and makes little appeal here.
33/1 and too green to do himself on belated debut here in December. Needs to make dramatic improvement in first-time tongue-tie but stable are at least in good form of late.
Has pulled too hard on all of his three runs to date and last run was a backward step. Needs to settle better and others make more appeal.
Has finished third on last three runs but the form has taken a few knocks and his handicap mark of 70 looks a tad harsh. Needs to improve if he is to lose his maiden tag here.
Showed something to work on when 6L third of seven on debut over C/D (8/1) recently despite been green early. That form yet to be tested but should improve in time with that experience under his belt.
Has hit the frame in both her runs at Wolverhampton, improving last time when chasing home a well backed newcomer from the same stable. The third home that day has franked the form with a recent win and looks the pick of those with experience.
Little was expected on recent debut over 1m at Kempton and having been slowly away she showed no immediate promise when finishing last. Needs to make dramatic improvement to figure here.
150/1 on recent debut and finished 13L behind Distant Goddess when eighth of 12. Open to improvement but others make more appeal.
Third foal of moderate dam. Stable seem to hold better claims with Cafe Milano and unless market says otherwise, probably best watched on racecourse debut.
Left her debut form behind her with similar efforts when runner-up in 1m maidens at Chelmsford and here. Shapes as though she will be suited by this longer trip although form of her last run here has taken some knocks since.

Forecasts
True Scarlet (5/4), Distant Goddess (7/4), Copper Point (5/2), Harmonious (4/1), Cafe Milano (9/1), Lep (25/1), Handsome Samson (33/1), Lady Alexandria (66/1), Jolyon (66/1), Sukie Two (66/1), Tallee (66/1)
Distant Goddess is just preferred to Harmonious and True Scarlet of those with experience, but the form is nothing special and the impeccably bred COPPER POINT is taken to make a winning debut just as his classy half-brother did. John Gosden introduced a winning newcomer last week in a similar contest and he may do likewise.
