Course winner. 11/1, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Southwell (5f), suited by way race developed. Off 13 months but he could have a part to play if ready to roll.

5/4

85/40, good second of 8 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 8 days ago, clear of rest. Leading contender off the same mark here with this drop back to the minimum trip a potentially good move.

13/2

C&D winner. 7/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago. Capable if on a going day but he's not the most consistent.

Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 4/1, respectable second of 8 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago. Needs considering off an untouched mark.

Forecasts

Fiscal Policy (5/4), Spanish Angel (4/1), Mustaffiz (5/1), Red Walls (13/2), Tomshalfbrother (8/1), Vandad (16/1)

FISCAL POLICY was just touched off back from a break at Kempton last week and he is likely to prove a tough nut to crack reverting to the minimum trip off the same mark here. Next on the list is Mustaffiz, who has found just one too good on 3 of his last 4 starts and could again be in line for the runner-up spot. Tomshalfbrother's well-being has to be taken on trust following a 13-month absence but he will have a fighting chance if fully tuned-up.
