Consistent throughout 2019 so it was a bit concerning he made such an underwhelming return to action at Newcastle (1m; standard to slow) at the start of the month. Winless in 14 starts on the AW too which is another negative. Look elsewhere.
Still chasing first career success after five starts, but she is by far the least exposed in the line-up. Was on the scene in two handicap starts at the end of 2019. Drop back to 1m looks the right move and she may have benefitted for a break.
All four AW wins have came at Southwell but he did show much more encouraging signs when just held over 7f at this track recently. Finished a half-length in front of Wilson on that occasion, but not certain to confirm the form this time round.
Modest strike rate (2-22). Has won over 7f at this track before in August 2019. However, he is still 3lb above that mark and has been in quiet form the last twice. Place claims if able to rediscover the form he showed when third here in January.
Returns to 1m after finishing a half-length second over 7f at this track last time out. That was a major improvement on previous efforts so he is dangerous to dismiss, especially since he is 4lb below his last winning mark.
Looked to be getting the hang of things, but disappointed when dropped back in trip to 6f on return to action at Kempton (6f; standard to slow) recently. Can be forgiven that run as he returns to 1m.
On quite a long losing run, and extremely modest strike-rate of 1-18 makes her vulnerable for win purposes. 14lb below last winning mark which came over C&D and she has threatened to return to form the last twice. May sneak into the placings.

Forecasts
Pioneering (2/1), Wilson (7/2), Break The Silence (7/2), Derry Boy (4/1), Accomplice (11/2), Levanter (13/2), Mochalov (7/1), Muatadel (14/1)
After he posted his best run for some time when a dead-heat second over 7f at this track with Break The Silence, Wilson is well-handicapped if arriving in similar form as he steps back up to 1m. Since switched to handicap company, Levanter has been much more competitive. She makes her seasonal return to action after a 182-day break but is open to plenty more improvement as she drops back to 1m. We'll take a chance on the wellbeing of PIONEERING though who is turned out for the third time in 10 days. He was just defied in his bid to follow up his reappearance victory but this race lacks strength in depth, so off just a 3lb higher mark he can get back to winning ways.
