5/2
Landed a gamble over C&D in December and has remained in good form since, going in again at Kempton (beat Taravara) and Southwell (both 1m) in recent weeks. A 5 lb penalty is unlikely to prevent him making a bold bid for the hat-trick.

7/2
One win from 24 Flat runs. Good head second of 9 to Cephalus in handicap at Kempton (1m) last month. Meets that rival on 6 lb better terms now so might be able to reverse the placings.

Reluctant individual. Went close at Wolverhampton last month but merely underlined his inconsistency when down the field at Southwell 10 days ago.

Forecasts

Cephalus (5/2), Taravara (7/2), Eddie Temple (9/2), Intercessor (17/2), Kaaranah (10/1), Poetic Force (12/1), Hul Ah Bah Loo (12/1), Brunel Charm (25/1), Lenny's Spirit (25/1), Candy Warhol (33/1)

Verdict

TARAVARA is 6 lb better off with Cephalus for a narrow defeat at Kempton last month so might be able to turn the tables on Gary Moore's thriving 5-y-o. Eddie Temple shaped quite well when third on his recent Chelmsford return and also makes the shortlist.
