8/1

C&D winner. Respectable third of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, firm, 5/1) 18 days ago. That was a step in the right direction and he's well weighted, though does take on the 3-y-os.

10/3

Career best when winning 13-runner handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 13 days ago. Unexposed and Murphy takes over so lots to like.

4/1

Promising type. 80/1, seventh of 12 in novice event at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 23 days ago, not knocked about. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Should progress.

Form: 77-7

5/6

Good second of 7 in handicap (13/8) at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) 17 days ago. That was another excellent effort against another big improver and he looks the one to beat.

Form: 74-4922

28/1

Didn't need to improve to win 4-runner handicap (9/4) at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 73 days ago, pushed out. First run for yard after leaving Marco Botti and this is a deeper race switched to turf.

Forecasts

Denis Anthony (5/6), Royal Dream (10/3), Solution (4/1), Mujid (8/1), Ascot Day (14/1), Sexy Rexy (28/1), Remedium (33/1)

The 3-y-os look set to dominate this with marginal preference for DENIS ANTHONY, who deserves to win one of these having bumped into a big improver on his last 2 starts. Royal Dream has plenty going for him too, with Solution sure to do better now handicapping.
