7/1
C&D winner. Looked rusty when fifth of 9 in handicap (33/1) at Chelmsford City (14f) 27 days ago. On an interesting mark if back to his best but recent profile is underwhelming.

Lightly-raced winner. 33/1, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 18 days ago, needing stiffer test. Significantly up in trip. Expected to be bang there.

7/1
Last 2 victories have come at Chester, the latest in June. 8/1, respectable fourth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 12 days ago. Yet to prove herself quite as effective on all-weather but holds place claims nonetheless.

Course winner. 22/1, step back in right direction when second of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 12 days ago. Leading player if able to back that up.

Dual winner here in October. 9/1, creditable second of 8 in handicap at this course (10.2f) 20 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Has a fine track record and should be in the mix again.

C&D winner. 66/1, looked very rusty after 19-month absence when last of 8 in handicap at this course (12.4f) 23 days ago. Significantly up in trip. This run should reveal more.

Forecasts

Cello (9/4), Something (5/2), Hedonista (10/3), Dreams Adozen (7/1), Fleurman (7/1), Quercus Robur (33/1)

Verdict

CELLO should prove well suited by the step up to a staying trip and Andrew Balding's lightly-raced gelding is fancied to build on his encouraging effort at Southwell and notch a second career success. Hedonista got right back on track on her second outing after a wind op last time and can pose the biggest threat, whilst Something has a fine record at Newcastle and can't be discounted upped in trip.
