Yet to reach a place in four starts but has hinted there may be a race to be won with him. Didn't shape badly in C&D maiden last week and makes handicap bow off reasonable mark. Yard in good form.

Fastnet Rock filly out of Listed placed dam but didn't set the world alight in three runs last term, although ran OK when favourite and fifth in Kempton 6f maiden. First run beyond that trip here and makes handicap debut after 230-day absence.

First ever runner at track for northern handler. Won Newmarket 7f novice stakes second start last season. Unplaced and raced freely stepped up to nearly 1m4f at Haydock on first run back few weeks ago. Down 3lb and nearly 2f and looks interesting.

Fair third on second start last season in Kempton 7f novice stakes but disappointed only start after that and has undegone wind surgery since. Makes handicap debut for yard in good form so worth a market check for any support over extra 3f.

Signs of a little ability on first two of three starts last season at up to extended 1m. Gelded during winter and makes handicap bow up 2f and with first-time blinkers. Dam stayed well so has possibilities for in-form stable.

Mukhadram filly related to some decent sorts over middle distances so may show some improvement at this 1m2f following four runs over 7f-1m. Probably better for recent run at Lingfield where weakened over 1f out.

Disappointing all trhee starts in Ireland last year for Jessica Harrington but won on second start for current yard when stepped up to this trip at Lingfield in February. Ran a shocker on recent first start back and has a bit to prove now.

Six starts without success last year for Eve Johnson Houghton, best effort when third of 5 in Brighton 5.5f nursery. Upped to 1m2f on first run for current yard and not completely disgraced but is hard to enthuse over despite 3lb drop.

Showed a modicum of talent in three 1m events this winter but did much better on handicap bow at 1m4f at Kempton recently when a close third. Back to 1m2f off just 1lb higher and with dam having won at this trip she is of some interest here.

Looked backward as a juvenile and was again green on recent first start back in Newbury 7f novice evnt. Bred to be much better at this trip though, dam German Listed 1m2f winner so some progress possible off lowly handicap mark.

Won Southwell 7f h'cap off just 48 in January and didn't get the best of runs when midfield finished on first try at 1m2f at Lingfield 13 days ago. Worth another attempt at this trip and is one of the few previous winners in the field

Showed nothing in four starts at 1m on AW this winter hence lowly handicap mark. Dam unraced half-sister to St Leger winner Millenary so improvement upped in trip quite possible for very shrewd handler, but needs to get his act together.

Forecasts

Rock Of Fame (13/8), Pleasure Garden (5/1), Mabre (5/1), Ten Thousand Stars (7/1), Windy Cove (7/1), Grinling (8/1), Savanna Gold (11/1), Amarsanaa (12/1), Alezan (25/1), Enchantee (25/1), Sea of Cool (33/1), Summer Valley (40/1), Champagne Highlife (50/1), Sir I'll Chance It (50/1)

Verdict

Pleasure Garden will need all Sir Mark Prescott's skills to improve him from some poor performances last year and will doubtless command some interest as he goes up in trip, but TEN THOUSAND STARS catches the eye being a first ever runner at the track for her Yorkshire-based handler. She'll be fitter for a recent spin over further and off 3lb lower has definite possibilities. Windy Cove ran creditably recently and is another who comes into the equation along with Savanna Gold, Mabre and Rock Of Fame, all possible improvers in a very trappy contest.
