10/1
Won minor events over C&D and at Pontefract last season. Ran no sort of race in handicap at Doncaster last time, stopping quickly having led until 3f out, so has something to prove now.

6/1, good second of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, soft) 16 days ago, running on. Makes tapeta debut. Sound place claims again.

Won 6f Redcar maiden and 7f Haydock novice on first 2 starts. Produced a laboured effort when fifth of 13 in handicap (33/1) at Newmarket (8f, good) 26 days ago. Up in trip. Makes tapeta debut. Cheekpieces back on. Others preferred.

4/1
Won at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March before following up in 14-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 15/2) a fortnight later. Up another 5 lb but seems straighforward and should go well again.

17/2
Improved when third Chelmsford City (10f, 9/1) on penultimate outing but below form meeting more testing ground when sixth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, soft, 9/1) 16 days ago. Others make greater appeal.

20/1
Promise when third on first 2 outings and likely unsuited by very testing ground when well-held sixth last time. Remains capable of better now handicapping after 7 months off.

10/3
Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1, creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good to soft) 16 days ago, nearest finish after meeting trouble. Makes tapeta debut. Shortlist material.

Forecasts

Mafnood (11/4), Monsieur Melee (10/3), Rocket Warrior (4/1), Chaturanga (5/1), Alpen Power (17/2), Curran (10/1), Cloudy Skye (20/1)

Verdict

MONSIEUR MELEE showed plenty to be positive about at Sandown last time and Jedd O'Keeffe's gelding is fancied to get off the mark at the chief expense of the hat-trick seeking Rocket Warrior. Mafnood can complete the placings.
