15/8
Two wins from 6 runs last year. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap (4/1) at this C&D 63 days ago, readily. 4 lb rise fair enough and he's high on the shortlist.

Three wins from 14 runs last year. Creditable fifth of 12 in handicap (12/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 32 days ago, left with too much to do. Place possibilities.

Course winner. Two wins from 6 runs last year. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable second of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 2/1) 12 days ago. Has to be taken seriously.

22/1
Thrice-raced maiden. First run since leaving William Haggas when fourth of 9 in maiden at this C&D (25/1) 21 days ago. Makes handicap debut for new yard and he's one to keep an eye on in the betting.

Forecasts

Local Hero (15/8), Cracking Gold (9/4), Sterling Knight (9/2), Brasil Power (9/2), Zoffandia (22/1), Silent Age (25/1), Silent Move (28/1), Rhythm N Rock (33/1), Road To Wembley (100/1)

Verdict

It's unlikely that a 4 lb rise will be enough to prevent LOCAL HERO from following up on his ready C&D success in December and, in the process, maintain his 100% record at this course. Cracking Gold got back on track on his first run since being gelded when finding just one too strong in first-time cheekpieces at Southwell recently. He is just about feared most ahead of Brasil Power.
