Fair maiden who failed to improve sent handicapping when always behind in 6-runner contest at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 4 weeks ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.
|
Had edged down the weights and wasn't seen to best effect when seventh of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.
|
C&D winner who ran up to his best when second in 6-runner C&D handicap 14 days ago, edged out only late on having had the run of the race. Shortlist material.
|
Winner at Wolverhampton in December. 8/1, respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 3 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Eyeshields on for 1st time and needs to raise his game if he's to defy his current mark.
|
Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs, though is best not judged on his latest run at Lingfield (10f, AW, 25/1) 12 days ago, doing too much too soon. Tongue strap on for 1st time.
|
C&D winner who shaped as if needing the run on first outing since leaving William Stone after 7 months off when fifth of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 29 days ago, fared final 1f. Not dismissed with that under his belt.
|
5-time C&D winner who returned to winning ways at Newcastle in January. Ran well following a small rise in the weights when runner-up over C&D last week and should remain competitive.
|
C&D winner who stepped up on his reappearance when fourth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 29 days ago.

Forecasts
The Bay Warrior (11/8), Pillars Of Earth (9/2), Engrave (11/2), Kardinya (6/1), Boasty (8/1), Star From Afarhh (12/1), Kells (22/1), Yakhabar (33/1)
THE BAY WARRIOR was edged out only late on over C&D 2 weeks ago and, for all he had an easy time of things up in front, it was still a career best and a reproduction of that form could be good enough to see him go one better here. Engrave did well to stick in there for as long as she did over C&D last week having pulled hard early, so she's respected, along with Pillars of Earth, who should be all the better for his reappearance.
- The Bay Warrior11/8
