C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford (6f) in November. Sixth of 8 in handicap (28/1) at Newcastle (6f) 19 days ago. Visor back on and rider takes off a handy 5 lb. Good showing not ruled out.

20/1
C&D winner. Latest win at Windsor (5f) in August. 22/1, fifth of 6 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 38 days ago, weakening final 1f. Return to this venue needs to have positive effect now but that rates distinctly possible.

C&D winner. 3/1, respectable 2 lengths third of 7 to El Hombre in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 16 days ago, keeping on without being ideally placed. Proving consistent and he's a live each-way player once again.

7/2
Five wins from 19 runs last year. 9/4, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 33 days ago by 3½ lengths from Araifjan, quickening clear. Expected to be bang there in this groove.

9/1
Ended long losing run over C&D in October and continued in form since, resuming winning ways at Chelmsford (6f) 2 starts back. Finished head second at Lingfield latest and whilst he's less-than-ideally drawn here, his yard continue in fine form.

5/2
Low-mileage sort who posted a career-best effort to make a winning yard debut at Kempton (6f) 17 days ago, doing well to come from as far back as he did in a steadily-run affair. Of interest again.

Thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 125/1) 23 days ago, always behind. Passed over here despite his sliding mark.

10/1
C&D who ended losing run at Chelmsford (6f) in December. 14/1, not disgraced from wide draw when fourth of 10 in handicap at this course (5.1f) 25 days ago. Another who is likely to face competition up front here.

Latest win over C&D in August. However, lost his form thereafter, only ninth of 10 in C&D handicap 54 days ago. Absent since and probably best watched faced with a tricky draw.

Much improved when landing back-to-back 6f AW events for John Butler in October/November. Changed hands for 8,000 gns thereafter and he's not scaled the same heights subsequently.

First run since leaving David Evans when bit below form 4 lengths fifth of 12 to Rebel Redemption in C&D handicap back in March, no extra inside final 1f. Absent since so market may prove best guide on return.

Forecasts

Libra Tiger (5/2), Alafdhal (7/2), Beauzon (11/2), Muscika (7/1), Porfin (17/2), El Hombre (9/1), Araifjan (10/1), Sarah's Verse (20/1), Rebel Redemption (33/1), Kodi Gold (33/1), Mustaffiz (33/1), Starjik (50/1)

Verdict

LIBRA TIGER belatedly built on the promise displayed in maidens when making a winning yard debut over this trip at Kempton 17 days ago, doing well to reel in a pair ridden more prominently. Still low-mileage, he may have more to offer and earns the vote from a handy draw. Alafdhal is a thriving sprinter and feared despite having gone up plenty in the weights. Beauzon and Muscika complete the shortlist.
