Looked quirky prior to his Wolverhampton 1m6f win (wore first-time blinkers), suited by increased trip (held on well). No match for an improving type (beaten 5L) when last seen over same trip, new headgear now employed, has been gelded.
Fair handicapper before arriving at this yard (given wind op straight away); showed promise after a break over a trip (1m5f) that looked a minimum. Will benefit from a return to this trip, quirky, 3lb below last winning mark, chance in weak affair.
Sent off favourite on stable debut/return to the Flat (not seen in this sphere since 2016) at Wolverhampton, potentially well treated but never got in the race (slow away). Entitled to do better but has looked temperamental in his hurdling career.
Course winner (1m4f), both wins coming on the AW, never tried a trip as far as this 2m. Shaped well enough on his return at Lingfield (1m5f), did look a little half-hearted under pressure (awkward near finish), chance but hardly a convincing type.
Offered little on her stable debut/return to the Flat at Wolverhampton over 2m finishing just behind Doubly Clever after being slow away. Off the same mark here but gave little encouragement last time, best left to her own devises even in a poor hand
Lightly-raced in the context of this race (will be just his sixth race); shown promise in his last two starts (both handicaps). Certainly caught the eye over C&D last November, ran as though he needed the race on return, of interest at this level.
Modest sort over hurdles and on the Flat; shown very little in either sphere since having a wind op. Ran poorly off this mark at Wolverhampton after four-months off having started at 40-1; makes very limited appeal on recent evidence.
Shown little over hurdles and now reverts to the Flat after five attempts over timber. Has won back-to-back AW handicaps in the past off lower marks, would need to return to that sort of form to have any chance in this.
On a losing sequence that is starting to extend to worrying proportions; capable of running the odd sound race at this sort of level. Disappointed when last seen, headgear worn last three starts now removed, stable better chance with Devizes.
Made little impact over hurdles in late-2019, ran respectably returned to the Flat just before the suspension of racing over 2m at Lingfield. Still to win on the Flat though (0-11) which tempers enthusiasm but does have a chance of hitting the frame.
0-17 the majority of his form is modest; took a step back in the right direction when last seen at Lingfield over 2m taking third (Vlannon in fourth). Better placed than most in that event, hard to see him making much impression here.
Back from wind surgery 1lb out of the weights his 1-31 Flat record isn't one that enthuses even at this humble level. Pulled-up when last seen over hurdles, never landed a low when last seen on the Flat, hard to recommend.

Red Secret (7/4), Celtic Classic (7/2), Devizes (13/2), Valkenburg (15/2), Doubly Clever (8/1), Vlannon (12/1), Monsieur Fox (25/1), Hen (25/1), Hatsaway (33/1), Greenview Paradise (40/1), Oborne Lady (40/1), Finisher (50/1), Golconda Prince (125/1)
A lot of the main players in this have their quirks and even in this low-grade affair those are going to need to be kept in check. Valkenburg is closely matched with Celtic Classic on their running last time over 1m5f at Lingfield although this trio should suit the former far better and he is nicely weighted on his best form. Doubly Clever is another who is well handicapped but his Wolverhampton effort failed to impress. DEVIZES has less blots on his copybook than many here and his last two runs, especially his C&D second late last year, if repeated give him a very sound chance, he looks more straightforward than most. Red Secret could get involved in a change of headgear.
