AW winner at 2. Some good efforts in handicaps at the start of last season. Lost his way on final 2 starts but given a chance by the handicapper as a result. On the shortlist.

Won twice on AW at Newcastle last autumn. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap there on final start. The booking of Oisin Murphy suggests he could be primed for this first outing in 5 months.

Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Not seen to best effect when seventh of 12 in handicap (8/1) at Chelmsford 15 days ago. Has fallen to a workable mark.

Third win of the year when scoring over C&D in March. 3/1, creditable third of 12 over C&D latest. Likely to give his running but his current mark does demand a career best.

7/1
Lightly-raced AW winner. Off 5 months, respectable fifth of 11 on 7f Newbury handicap debut in September. Absent again since but it could be significant that a top stable is persevering with him as a 4-y-o. It'll be very interesting to see what the betting makes of him.

Fairly useful AW/turf winner over this trip for Charlie Hills. Not at his best at the end of last summer but his mark has edged down as a result. Makes stable debut after 7 months off.

Career best when striking at only the second time of asking for new trainer Ruth Carr at Wolverhampton (7f) earlier this month. A 3 lb rise is unlikely to prevent another prominent showing from this 4-y-o.

One win from 31 Flat runs. Twenty three runs since last win in 2020. Ninth of 14 in handicap at Chelmsford City (1m) 30 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive.

Three 6f wins from 11 runs last year. Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 22/1) 47 days ago. Tackles 7f for only the second time in his career.

Well held in 2 turf handicaps for Mark Loughnane last summer but had shaped well on AW prior to that, runner-up in 2 handicaps (including C&D) before winning an 8.6f Wolverhampton maiden. First outing for a new stable after 9 months off. Worth a precautionary betting check.

Pair of C&D wins this year but has found it tougher from marks in the 70s last twice and probably vulnerable in this competitive affair.

Forecasts

Acotango (10/3), Tropez Power (7/2), Woodstock (9/2), Eldrickjones (11/2), Pumalin Park (7/1), How Impressive (9/1), Zozimus (14/1), King Of York (20/1), Northern Spirit (25/1), Harry Magnus (66/1), Serenity Rose (100/1)

Verdict

ACOTANGO is well treated on his peak form last season (including here) and the drop to 7f looks an interesting move for one who does tend to travel well in his races. It didn't take long for Ruth Carr to find the key to Woodstock and he's second choice ahead of Tropez Power. Lightly-raced Sir Michael Stoute representative Pumalin Park is another fascinating runner in a well-contested handicap.
