40/1
Kickstarted 2022 with back-to-back wins at Newcastle and not disgraced when 2 lengths sixth in 20-runner Ascot handicap (5f) 2 starts back. Rare poor effort at York followed but couple of others make greater appeal overall.

5/2
Promising type. Hooded for 1st time/gelded, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Southwell (5f) in January, staying on to lead final 1f and storming clear. Absent again since but has to be of interest given his positive profile.

9/1
Winless since early-2021 but he arrives here on the back of a respectable third of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 4 weeks ago, headed final 100 yds. Mark has eased a little more and he's in with an each-way shout again.

33/1
3-time winner last year. Unsuited by drying ground when last of 14 in handicap (20/1) at Epsom (6f, good) during early June. Mark is easing however, and this switch of headgear may put an extra edge on him.

In-and-out form since landing Lingfield hat-trick in January. However, arrives here having ran up to best when second of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 9 days ago, keeping on.

33/1
Five wins from 16 Flat runs. 22/1, twentieth of 21 in handicap at York (6f, good) in May, always behind. Given a break since and a return to this venue may have positive effect (2-3 over C&D). Visor on first time.

15/8
C&D winner. 3 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Wolverhampton in May. Bit below form ninth of 15 in handicap at York (6f, good to firm, 11/2) 10 days ago. Expected to be in the mix back on AW.

33/1
5/2 and blinkered for 1st time, sixth of 8 in handicap at Chester (5.5f, good to soft) in August, first-time blinkers failing to have positive effect. Changed hands for 37,000 gns in the autumn and market likely to prove best guide here.

22/1
Multiple AW winner for this yard but operating below best last few starts, seventh of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 30 days ago. Assessor is relinquishing his grip at least for when things do click.

C&D winner. Good third of 7 in handicap (16/1) at Chester (6.1f, good) 24 days ago despite not helping herself with a tardy start. No forlorn hope back on AW.

4-time C&D winner. 4/1, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 57 days ago, well on top finish. This looks tougher again but his progression may not have stopped.

Forecasts

Nationwide (15/8), Prop Forward (5/2), Scot's Grace (9/2), Ayr Harbour (9/1), Tyger Bay (10/1), Strong Power (20/1), Mohareb (22/1), Punchbowl Flyer (33/1), Capote's Dream (33/1), Barbill (33/1), Venturous (40/1)

Verdict

Low-mileage 4-y-o PROP FORWARD got back on the up in no uncertain terms when successful at Southwell in January and, with his profile essentially a positive one, he can defy another absence and come out on top again. Nationwide, back on all weather, Scot's Grace and Tyger Bay are others fancied to feature.
