12/1
Triple sprint winner, the latest coming on his return from a break at Kempton (5f, AW) recently, which was a ready success. Up 10lb for that this time. That's a big ask, but certainly can't rule out another win.

6/1
Multiple 5f winner on both turf/AW, the latest coming last December, when 6lb lower. Went very close over C&D (good) on recent return from a break. Nudged up another 3lb, but enters calculations.

9/2
Multiple sprint winner, mostly over this trip, and on a variety of going. 3lb higher than his latest success at Doncaster last August. Returned from wind surgery to get up late for third from this mark back at that track. Should be very competitive.

66/1
Veteran former Group 3 sprint winner who has not won on turf for five years, though has seven AW successes to his name in that period. However, better on that surface than this these days and others are preferred.

16/1
Triple winner over this trip when there has been 'soft' in the going description, though hasn't won since his juvenile season. Mostly some way below that form last year (best run came here) and little encouragement in his reappearance effort.

10/1
Multiple sprint winner, his turf successes being on a sound/fast surface. 2lb higher here than his last success at Newcastle in January. Respectable effort on his return at Newmarket and remains of interest from this mark.

100/1
Prolific sprint winner on a variety of ground. 2lb higher than his latest success which came at Goodwood last August. Held since, and record when fresh not great. Others preferred.

Mountain Peak17
Age: 5|  Weight: 9-5| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: E Walker| OR:  88| CD
5/1
Multiple sprint winner, with all his turf wins coming on good to firm. Was not far away from today's mark on his return from a break at Newmarket earlier in the month, but slower conditions here have to be a concern.

Diamond Dougal17

11/2
Another multiple winner of sprints and unlike some of his opponents, he acts on ground good or slower. 3lb higher than the last of those at Ripon last August. Was just behind Mountain Peak on recent reappearance, and looks a player.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-3| J: R Kingscote| T: Tom Dascombe| OR:  86| D
15/2
Four-time 5f winner on both a sound surface and heavy. Went close from a 4lb higher mark at Chester 12-months ago and was again placed from the same mark here later in the season. Held on her reappearance but could be a contender this time.

20/1
Goes well on good or slower ground and was a Class 2 sprint winner in Ayr's Bronze Cup last September. Has to be considered on that basis and has once won when fresh. Should be thereabouts.

11/1
Group 3 winner who doesn't have the best of strike rates but can still be very competitive on his day. Scored from 1lb higher at Chelmsford last summer and after a respectable reappearance, he can't be ruled out.

Dual 5f winner on good/good to soft going. Goes well when fresh, and returns to action on a very competitive mark, so is entitled to respect.

Forecasts

Orvar (9/2), Mountain Peak (5/1), Diamond Dougal (11/2), Acclaim The Nation (6/1), She Can Boogie (15/2), Venturous (10/1), Blue De Vega (11/1), Benny And The Jets (12/1), Daschas (12/1), Dave Dexter (16/1), Music Society (20/1), Broken Spear (25/1), Tropics (66/1), Poyle Vinnie (100/1)

Verdict

Benny And The Jets has a 10lb rise to contend with here and that may prove his undoing in what looks a competitive heat. Acclaim The Nation, Orvar, Diamond Dougal, Venturous and Music Society can all have cases made, but the suggestion is SHE CAN BOOGIE, who acts on slow ground and could step up on her reappearance effort.
  1. She Can Boogie
