5/4
C&D winner. Five wins from 17 Flat runs. Good second of 6 in handicap at this course (12.4f) 13 days ago. Remains on a workable mark and one to bear in mind again in refitted cheekpieces.

40/1
14/1, first run since leaving J. S. Bolger when fourth of 5 in handicap at Chelmsford (14f) 27 days ago, headed home turn and soon beaten. Type yard does well with and this should reveal more.

4/1
Dual C&D winner, the latest gained in January. Creditable third back here since but his revised mark does just demand that little bit more.

13/2
C&D winner. Two wins from 6 runs last year. 11/4, last of 5 in handicap at this course (12.4f) 34 days ago, the longer trip seemingly taxing him. Rates a likely candidate to bounce back.

12/1
Modest in bumpers but did show fair form on first of 3 starts in novice company at upto 12f. Should hold more chance now handicapping and betting may prove a useful guide.

7/2
Gained reward for consistency when adding to sole career victory in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago, staying on to lead close home. Should give another good account from 2 lb higher.

Forecasts

Pallas Dancer (5/4), Broken Rifle (7/2), Dragons Will Rise (4/1), Jomont (13/2), Mr Mccall (12/1), Tejano (40/1)

Verdict

PALLAS DANCER ended last year on the up, landing back-to-back all-weather handicaps, and continued the good work when runner-up over further here 2 weeks ago. Appealing as still being on a handy mark, he gets the narrow vote to come out on top again, possibly at the chief expense of Broken Rifle. Dragons WIll Rise completes the shortlist.

  1. Pallas Dancer5/4
  2. Broken Rifle7/2
  3. Dragons Will Rise4/1
