9/4
14/1, respectable second of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 2 days ago. Record stands at 0-12 on the AW but will be a big player if turned out again quickly.

5/1
7/4, career best when winning 5-runner claimer at this C&D (AW) 40 days ago, having run of race. Capable of making his presence felt, for all that more is needed back in handicap company.

20/1
8/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 17 days ago, slowly away. Tongue strap on 1st time and worth a second look back on the AW.

13/8
First run since leaving Jane Chapple-Hyam when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D (AW, 6/1) 29 days ago, suited by strong pace. 3 lb rise for that career-best effort looks manageable and he's a leading candidate with Oisin Murphy booked.

Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. 40/1, last of 13 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, good) 55 days ago. Back down in trip and others are more persuasive.

14/1
Eight-time course winner, the latest gained in April. Seventh of 15 in handicap on turf course here (7f, good to firm, 11/1) 31 days ago. 12 lb higher now returned to the AW and he's opposable.

9/1
C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (5/1) at this C&D (AW) 29 days ago. Couldn't rule out.

Forecasts

Delta Legend (13/8), Valkyrian (9/4), Smart Deal (5/1), Hul Ah Bah Loo (9/1), Swiss Pride (14/1), Bernadine (20/1), Daphne May (40/1), Harbour Vision (40/1), Bishop's Glory (40/1)

Verdict

The vote goes to HUL AH BAH LOO, who is now 12 lb lower in the weights compared to when striking over C&D in November and he shaped as though his turn may again be nearer when fourth back here last month. Delta Legend made a winning start for this yard in a C&D handicap and will be a threat, particularly if he again gets a strong pace to aim at. Smart Deal is third choice but in reality they will all have their work cut out if Valkyrian, who was second at Chelmsford on Sunday, takes his chance.
