12/1, respectable third of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 19 days ago, held up and needing stiffer test. Looks quirky but there is probably a bigger effort in him and he drops in class here.

Sole success came over C&D in September. 17/2, creditable third of 11 in handicap at this course (10.2f) 15 days ago, needing stiffer test. Nudged back up 3 lb but high draw a positive.

Winner at Lingfield in August for Andrew Balding. Good fourth of 8 in juvenile hurdle at Catterick (15.7f, heavy, 7/1) 15 days ago, pulling hard. May benefit from some headgear.

Fairly useful performer at best in France. Little impact in handicaps for current yard (1 of 3 runners here for stable). Mark has plummeted and betting may guide.

Ninth of 10 in handicap (20/1) at Kempton (11f) 17 days ago, racing wide throughout. 1 of 3 runners for yard and another on a tempting mark if finding her best form again.

Won at Kempton in November. Good second of 11 in handicap at this C&D (5/1) 54 days ago, no match for thriving winner who has gone in again since. Considered despite low draw.

Fair maiden for Godolphin in 2019 (cost a fortune as a yearling), but big prices and little impact in handicaps the last twice. Upped significantly in trip in first-time hood/tongue tie.

Well held in 3 novice events around this trip in 2020. Plenty of improvement needed on handicap debut after 172 days off.

Modest maiden. Off 6 weeks, bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (13f, 15/2) 17 days ago, not ideally placed. Hood on 1st time which could help settle her down. Interesting.

Forecasts

Helix (2/1), Ad Libitum (4/1), A Touch Of Luck (9/2), Bobba Tee (5/1), Juriste (8/1), Lopes Dancer (9/1), Machios (12/1), Iconic Belle (14/1), Melgate Majeure (16/1), Monash (20/1), Well Planted (25/1), Winfola (40/1), Power Of Time (50/1)

Verdict

AD LIBITUM's last 2 wins have come over C&D, edging out Bobba Tee for his latest success 3 weeks ago, and he's taken to go in again with a 4 lb rise still leaving him well treated on past exploits. A Touch of Luck is interesting in a first-time hood for Richard Fahey, along with Helix, while Phil Kirby's three can all be given some chance with the betting likely to prove informative.

  1. AD LIBITUM
  2. A TOUCH OF LUCK (GER)
  3. HELIX
