2/1
Career best when winning 11-runner handicap (6/1) at Lingfield (1m) 9 days ago. Did that readily and should be very competitive under a 6 lb penalty.

Latest win at Southwell (1m) in December but ran poorly at Wolverhampton (8.6f) later that month, racing lazily. Bounce back needed.

Forecasts

Rosco Rogers (11/8), Antiquity (2/1), Sweet Cicely (15/2), Return With Gold (10/1), Flaine (10/1), Sopelana (18/1), Salaria (20/1), National Voice (33/1), General Gordon (66/1)

Verdict

ANTIQUITY ran out a pretty comfortable winner on last week's 1m handicap debut and a 6 lb penalty may not prevent him following up with further progress possible. Rosco Rogers has gone close in both handicaps and heads the dangers along with Richard Fahey's Sweet Cicely.

  1. Antiquity2/1
  2. Rosco Rogers11/8
  3. Sweet Cicely15/2
