15/8
Won 7-runner handicap (3/1) at this course (7.2f) 21 days ago, always holding on. Up in trip and, with a 3 lb rise for that fair enough, he has to be taken seriously.

16/1
Course winner. Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. 20/1, respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 11 days ago. Back up in trip and looks vulnerable.

12/1
Last of 8 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D. Off 7 months ahead of this debut for new yard and now has a bit to prove.

5/2
Five-time C&D winner. Three wins from 19 runs last year. Creditable second of 12 in handicap at this C&D (4/1) 4 days ago, no match for winner. Likely to be on the premises.

C&D winner. 9/1, last of 12 in handicap at this C&D 4 days ago, folding. Possibilities if he puts his best foot forward.

6/1
Temperamental sort. Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, soft, 16/1) 22 days ago. Probably best to look elsewhere.

10/1
Three wins from 16 runs last year. 20/1, improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap at Yarmouth (8f, heavy) 14 days ago. Not taken lightly up just 2 lb.

10/1
Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. Tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Dundalk (8f) 18 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Muredach Kelly and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Okeanos (15/8), Inexplicable (5/2), Latent Heat (6/1), Arlo's Sunshine (10/1), Capla Knight (10/1), Ricksen (12/1), Mudlahhim (16/1), Dew You Believe (16/1)

Verdict

OKEANOS appears to be going the right way judged on his breakthrough success in first-time cheekpieces here 3 weeks ago and, with the step back up to this trip likely to be in his favour, the 4-y-o is taken to strike again. Next on the list is Arlo's Sunshine, who returned to form when scoring on his second start for this yard at Yarmouth and remains on a workable mark. Inexplicable is best of the rest.

  1. Okeanos15/8
  2. Arlo's Sunshine10/1
  3. Inexplicable5/2
