10/3
Lightly-raced winner. Seventh of 9 in minor event at Salisbury (6f, heavy, 10/3) when last seen in October. Mark for this handicap/yard debut looks fair and could go well back at 5f if responding well to the first-time hood.

9/4
Lightly-raced winner. 9/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 45 days ago, slowly away. Looked in need of the run that day and, with the drop to the minimum trip here unlikely to be an issue, he is one to consider.

15/2
Two wins from 5 runs last year. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 16/1) 45 days ago. Return to this trip looks a good move and he could have a significant role to play if the rain stays away (best of his 3 turf efforts was on fast ground).

4/1
Thrice-raced winner. 4/1, won 8-runner minor event at Bath (5f, heavy) on final 2-y-o start, responding well. Gelded since and he appeals as the type to raise his game now pitched into a handicap.

16/1
Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 5-runner minor event (2/7) at Newcastle (5f) 45 days ago, comfortably. Gelded since and definite chance if able to build on that returned to turf on his second try in a handicap.

12/1
Below form fifth of 11 in nursery (18/1) at Kempton (6f), racing closer to pace than ideal. Off 173 days and others make more appeal.

7/1
Lightly-raced winner. 4/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, career best when winning 10-runner nursery at Naas (5f, good to soft) when last seen in September. Gelded in the interim and while this Irish raider needs to improve on that bare form, he won't mind if the ground is on the easy side.

Forecasts

The Coffee Pod (9/4), Maximum Impact (10/3), Dashing Harry (4/1), Kendall Roy (7/1), Mc Loven (15/2), Revenue (12/1), Cast No Shadow (16/1)

Verdict

Much depends on the state of the ground. Provided it's good or faster, MC LOVEN could be the way to go on the back of his encouraging reappearance fourth in a fairly valuable 6f handicap on the all-weather at Lingfield. On that evidence, this drop back in trip is just what the doctor ordered. The Coffee Pod and Maximum Impact won't mind some give underfoot, a remark which also applies to Irish raider Kendall Roy, while the unexposed Dashing Harry also merits respect.
