13/8, creditable second of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 24 days ago. Further progression can't be ruled out as he steps up in trip and he looks the one to beat.

Forecasts

Habit Rouge (2/1), Modmin (5/2), The Gill Brothers (7/2), Morlaix (11/2), Duckett's Grove (9/1)

Verdict

MODMIN is still relatively lightly raced and unexposed at this trip. He is proven on polytrack and looks to have leading claims in a small field. Morlaix disappointed on turf last time but he was prolific on the all-weather over the winter so could bounce back here. Habit Rouge can't be ruled out on his best form either.

  1. MODMIN (IRE)
  2. MORLAIX
  3. HABIT ROUGE
