Heavy-ground winner last year. Not disgraced on Haydock return but has run poorly all 3 starts since. Others preferred.

Opened account for the season when scoring at Newcastle in first-time cheekpieces last month, deserving extra credit with rider dislocating his shoulder late on. Sure to go well again up 5 lb.

Capitalised on drop of grade when taking claimer (9/2) at Chester (7.6f, good to soft) last month but unable to land a blow on yard debut in competitive handicap at Newmarket next time. May feature.

Well backed and at least as good as ever to quickly resume winning ways back on the all-weather at Chelmsford (7f) 20 days ago. Another good second at Yramouth on Thursday. Eng 4.50 Yarmouth Friday.

Has been running creditably in defeat this year, latest when second of 6 in handicap at Brighton (8f, good) 11 days ago. Should give another solid account from same mark.

Yet to fully hit top gear this year, albeit not seen to best effect when eighth of 9 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good) 19 days ago, not ideally placed. Down to a handy mark so can't be dismissed.

Back from France with a solid third at Windsor in June but hasn't featured on both subsequent starts, including on the all-weather last time. Cheekpieces applied but others more persuasive.

Temperamental sort who put his best foot forward for once when scoring at Sandown earlier this month and backed that up when second under a penalty at Chester a week later. Should go well again.

Largely struggled since opening his account in 1m Bath maiden last summer, and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Verdict

CRACK REGIMENT gained his first victory on these shores in first-time cheekpieces at Newcastle last month, deserving extra credit having come from furthest back of the front trio and with Ben Curtis dislocating his shoulder late on. He's taken to follow up. Alibaba heads up the dangers after a number of placed efforts this term, ahead of Zlatan.

  2. ALIBABA
  3. ZLATAN (IRE)
