12/1
Completed a quick-fire hat-trick in 2018 over this trip on turf; lightly-raced since (only ran three times last year). Failed to fire all last year, 0-2 on the AW, comes here off a long absence but is dropping in grade and back below his last winning mark.

4/1
Broke his maiden here over 6f; has been a rare visitor to the AW since that victory. Took a couple of turf handicaps last year over this trip turning in his best performance at Ripon (has a solid record there) in August; competitive if ready to roll.

9/2
Last seen on the Flat in Germany having been hurdling since coming to GB (dual scorer for Oliver Greenall). Well held in a jumpers' bumper here earlier in the year (well held); now with a new yard, looks far from well handicapped in this sphere.

9/2
Winner on the Flat (in Ireland) and over hurdles (GB/Ireland); failed to build on the promise of penultimate run at Wolverhampton last time (looked quirky). Deserves another chance in this sphere, looks on a good mark if coping with this trip.

33/1
Flat/hurdles winner for previous yards who has yet to sparkle in either sphere for this team. Reverts to the Flat after a couple of modest hurdles starts (handicap debut last time); back from an absence and more to prove than some in this.

66/1
Dual winner as a 2yo for Mick Channon but has yet to score again although he's yet to run on the Flat for this yard (0-5 over hurdles). Won a nursery off this mark as a 2yo, often goes from the front; bit to prove returning to the level.

8/1
Dual winner at this trip and further last year but has limited AW experience (one run on Fibresand; ran respectably). Well below-par when last seen but capable enough at this level if the break has done him good; makes some appeal.

Colony Queen225
Age: 4|  Weight: 8-11| J: R Havlin| T: S Gollings| OR:  72| D
11/2
In good form last season winning on four occasions, progressed with each start. Just the one win to her name on AW (1-6) but it did come on Tapeta for her former yard (yet to run on AW for this team); Up 3lb for last win but appeals more than most.

Royal Regent301
Age: 8|  Weight: 8-8| J: Jamie Gormley| T: Mrs L B Normile| OR:  69| BF| D
66/1
Ayr specialist (never won elsewhere) who has limited AW experience (0-2) having not been seen since running well at Ayr in August. Often a front runner the handicapper has him 7lb below his last winning mark; faith tainted away from Ayr though.

5/1
Took advantage of a drop to 0-60 grade when recording his only 2019 victory; ran consistently afterwards off similar marks to today (appears in the grip of the handicapper). Ought to run a fair race but others look better treated on balance.

Age: 5|  Weight: 8-2| J: Cam Hardie| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR:  60
100/1
Successful once on AW (Polytrack, 1m6f) when with Ralph Beckett he's shown very little for this yard mainly over hurdles. Both Flat starts last year left a little to be desired (well beaten over 1m4f here); 5lb out of weights, makes little appeal.

Forecasts

Benadalid (4/1), Tim Rocco (9/2), Fiesole (9/2), Firewater (5/1), Colony Queen (11/2), Regal Mirage (8/1), Daawy (12/1), Illustrissime (33/1), Two Blondes (66/1), Royal Regent (66/1), Gripper (100/1)

Verdict

Modest fare for the grade with a limited number of progressive types in the field. COLONY QUEEN was in fine form last season and still looks capable of defying her new mark returning to action on the AW (run well when fresh before). Fiesole is another to keep an eye and still looks well handicapped in this sphere although he did look a bit of a handful when last seen on the Flat. Regal Mirage is a solid sort at this level while course winner Benadalid could make an impression given his decent record here (134). Royal Regent needs to show his form away from his beloved Ayr and Firewater looks to be in the icy clutches of the handicapper.
