50/1
Thoroughly unreliable type. 20/1, refused to race in handicap at Ascot (16f, good). Off 7 months and cannot be supported with any confidence at present, though flip start may help him.

Successful twice as a 3-y-o before changing hands for 260,000 gns. Tongue strap on for first time, first run since leaving Ralph Beckett when excellent third of 13 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 40 days ago. More to come.

Course winner who made a winning return from 5 months off at Pontefract in April. Good third of 14 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, heavy, 16/1) 26 days ago, sticking to task. Enters calculations despite advancing years.

Ended 2023 with a pair of wins at Chelmsford. 7/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 48 days ago, not knocked about. Back on correct mark and expected to step up on that returned to turf.

Excellent return to action on the AW and just about a career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Goodwood (14f, heavy) 13 days ago. Up 2 lb in a deeper race but likely to give it another good go.

7/2
Won last 2 starts for Williams Haggas in 2022 and since developed into a fairly useful hurdler. Disappointing in that sphere when last seen in January but should be plenty more to come on the level.

Five wins from 17 Flat runs. First run since leaving William Jarvis when respectable third of 13 in handicap (9/1) at Epsom (12f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Can make presence felt.

Still looked in need of the experience when sixth of 8 in maiden at Windsor (10f, good to soft, 28/1) 17 days ago. Significantly up in trip for handicap debut from a mark that demands more.

Forecasts

Pawapuri (7/2), Rathgar (5/1), Duke Of Verona (5/1), Kyle Of Lochalsh (15/2), Circuit Breaker (15/2), The Goat (15/2), Torcello (17/2), Military Tycoon (20/1), Ocean Heights (33/1), Hurtle Wallop (33/1), Ellerton (40/1), Alright Sunshine (50/1)

Verdict

A good-quality staying handicap with the vote going to PAWAPURI, who was on the up when last racing on the level for William Haggas and she's since won twice over hurdles for another excellent stable. Duke of Verona and Kyle of Lochalsh showed enough on their respective reappearance to warrant serious consideration.
