3/1
Improved on recent efforts to win 7-runner handicap (2/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 10 days ago. Scored with a bit in hand there so big shout under a 4 lb penalty stepped up in trip.

Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, good fourth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 13 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up.

Latest win at Lingfield in January. Good fourth of 7 to Two Plus Two in handicap (2/1) at Wolverhampton (14f) 10 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Merits consideration.

Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. First run since leaving Stuart Edmunds when respectable sixth of 10 in handicap (66/1) at Wolverhampton (14f) 33 days ago. One to consider.

7/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, only eighth of 10 to Further Measure in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 20 days ago. Others more persuasive.

C&D winner. 14/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f) 5 days ago, needing stiffer test. Not ruled out.

Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (14f, 16/1) 10 days ago, well positioned. Not taken lightly.

Forecasts

Forge Valley Lad (3/1), Addosh (4/1), Arch Legend (4/1), Further Measure (13/2), Sir Joseph Swan (13/2), Young Endless (7/1), Two Plus Two (14/1), Dark Agent (20/1), Edna E Mode (40/1)

Verdict

Hat-trick seeking FORGE VALLEY LAD looks the way to go under a 4 lb penalty for his smooth Lingfield success with this longer trip likely to prove within his compass. Further Measure wasn't seen to best effect when fourth behind Two Plus Two at Wolverhampton last time and heads the list of dangers, with Addosh and Dark Agent also in the picture.

  1. Forge Valley Lad3/1
  2. Further Measure13/2
  3. Two Plus Two14/1
