Lightly-raced maiden. 7/2, backed up previous improvement shown when third of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 34 days ago. Every chance he'll be in the mix.

Off the mark at Chelmsford City in February. Run best excused when seventh of 9 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 7/1) 12 days ago, not clear run early in straight and forced to switch approaching final 1f. Makes turf debut.

3/1
Promising individual. 11/10 and gelded, showed much improved form to justify good support in 9-runner event on handicap debut at Kempton (6f) 26 days ago, edging ahead final 50 yds. Back on turf and he's open to further improvement.

Fared no better after 6 months off when fifth of 7 in handicap at this course (5.1f, good, 12/1) 2 weeks ago. Others more persuasive.

Failed to come on for recent run when 6¾ lengths sixth of 9 to reopposing Dark Dreamer in handicap (12/1) at Kempton (6f) 26 days ago. Difficult ask.

12/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, below form when seventh of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 31 days ago. Well beaten on both previous turf outings (for Nigel Tinkler) so needs to show more.

28/1
Got back on track when fourth of 6 in maiden (33/1) at Kempton (5f) a couple of months ago, carrying her head rather awkwardly under pressure. Back in a handicap but looks more exposed than most. Headgear discarded back up in trip.

Forecasts

Dark Dreamer (3/1), Split The Profit (7/2), Chiedozie (5/1), Bint Havana Gold (6/1), Hearitfortheboys (13/2), Revenue (13/2), Sighter (8/1), Invincible Navy (12/1), Hot Front (16/1), Talking Rubbish (28/1)

Verdict

DARK DREAMER showed much improved form to get off the mark on return/handicap debut at Kempton earlier this month and with further progress on the cards, Robert Cowell's charge can double his tally at the expense of Chiedozie, who was placed on both starts in handicaps last month and switches back to turf. Split The Profit can fill out third fitted with more severe headgear.
