4/1

Career best when winning 10-runner handicap (17/2) at this course (7.2f) 14 days ago, overcoming positional bias. Nudged up just 2 lb and should go close if coping with this stiffer test (shapes as though he will stay),

11/4

10/1, first run since leaving Ralph Smith when good third of 13 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good) 9 days ago. Hasn't shone on 4 previous AW starts and others make more appeal.

Guildford^h²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: William Carver⁽³⁾| T: J A Osborne| OR: 47

33/1

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: L Morris| T: J Butler| OR: 45

10/1

5/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 16 days ago. Remains winless following 15 attempts but he's clearly capable of picking up a race and should give it a good shot.

Forecasts

Harlington (11/4), Blacklion (4/1), Burlington House (11/2), Keen Interest (8/1), Danehill Star (8/1), Northstead Gardens (9/1), Lightning Bay (10/1), Eagle Landed (10/1), Quickfire (14/1), Brinton (20/1), Northgate (33/1), Guildford (33/1), Angel Of Gold (200/1)

The one who appeals most is BLACKLION on the back of his recent success over 7.2f at this course. He did well under the circumstances on that occasion and this stiffer test could be right up his street. Lightning Bay and Northstead Gardens are taken to fill the places.
