Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at this course (5f, 11/2) 10 days ago. Return to this trip no bad thing and he's one for the shortlist off the same mark.
|
Four-time C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 15/2, fifth of 7 in handicap at this C&D 8 days ago. Capable of playing a part off current mark, but others appeal more for win purposes.
|
Unreliable sort. One win from 28 Flat runs, which was gained back in 2018. Creditable fifth of 12 in C&D handicap (15/2) when last seen in October, nearest at the finish. Cheekpieces back on.
|
C&D winner. Blinkered for 1st time, last of 8 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 16/1) 35 days ago, better placed than most. Needs to bounce back on debut for new yard, but chance if able to do so.
|
C&D winner. Three wins from 15 runs last year, the latest here in December. Last of 11 in handicap (20/1) at this C&D 14 days ago, though, and opposable on the back of that display.
|
Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (6/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 18 days ago. Thereabouts on each of his last 3 starts over this C&D and likely to be in the shake-up.
|
Four wins from 18 runs last year. 33/1, respectable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (7.1f), slowly away. Off 112 days and chances are that he'll again find a few too good.
|
Five-time course winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Third of 5 in handicap here (5f, 3/1) 5 days ago, slowly away (as is often the case). Will be a threat if breaking alertly this time.
|
Ninth of 12 in minor event at Kempton (8f, 17/2) 83 days ago. Back down in trip and it's probably best to look elsewhere in search of the likely winner.
|
Quirky sort. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (10/1) at Chelmsford City (8f) 26 days ago, slowly away. Back down in trip on debut for new yard and couldn't rule out off this career-low mark.
|
22/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 29 days ago. 0-7 on this side of the Irish Sea and others make more appeal here, for all that the handicapper is showing mercy.
|
Fourteen runs since last win in 2020. Last of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 40/1) 59 days ago. Back up in trip and blinkers/tongue strap now refitted. Hard to warm to.

Forecasts
Ginato (9/2), True Mason (9/2), One Hart (9/2), Global Vision (13/2), Tathmeen (7/1), The Cola Kid (8/1), Rabat (14/1), Athollblair Boy (16/1), Merry Secret (18/1), Royal Advice (20/1), Somewhere Secret (22/1), Giorgio Vasari (28/1)
The vote goes to GINATO, who pulled nicely clear of the rest when failing by a whisker over C&D on his penultimate start and a reproduction of that effort would give him every chance. One Hart hasn't got his head in front for a while, but he has to be feared having finished a close-up third off this mark here 10 days ago. Global Vision and habitual slow-starter Tathmeen are others to consider.
