Capitalised on a career-low mark when scoring at this C&D in December and good effort when ½-length second of 9 to Volenti in handicap here (13/2) 29 days ago. Remains well treated on old form and he's a major player.

Back to form when winning at this C&D in January and ran at least as well when second of 8 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 11/2) 15 days ago. Remains on a handy mark so he could be thereabouts once again.

9/1
Seven-time course winner, with latest success over C&D in January. Quickly left behind a lesser effort when second of 6 in handicap at this course (10.2f, 9/2) 9 days ago and he can give another good account.

In first-time cheekpieces, made more impact than previously in handicaps when length second of 12 to Hartswood at this C&D (28/1) 39 days ago, having run of race. Needs to find more again.

Four-time C&D winner, with latest success in January. Needed stronger gallop when fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (10.2f, 4/1) 15 days ago and he enters calculations back down in trip.

Remains a maiden and below form after 9 weeks off when ninth of 12 in handicap at this course (10.2f, 25/1) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces now reached for as he drops back down in trip.

Forecasts

Hartswood (85/40), Volenti (7/2), Paris Lights (7/2), Eden Storm (6/1), L'Ennemi (13/2), Cusack (9/1), Thats My Boy Luke (33/1)

Verdict

PARIS LIGHTS has run well over C&D on 2 of his last 3 starts, returning to winning ways in December and bettering that form when second on his latest outing, so he is taken to score again off what remains a workable mark. He can reverse the placings with Volenti from when the pair met 29 days ago, with Hartswood the pick of the remainder.
