6/4
Course winner. 3/1, creditable second of 8 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 6 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Back up in trip. He's found one too good 5 times since scoring in October and another win can't be far away.

16/1, improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 19 days ago, responding well to front-running tactics. 3 lb higher and fancied to be bang there once again.

Has shown little to date, well-beaten eighth of 9 in maiden (150/1) at Kempton (8f) 33 days ago. Makes handicap debut and could well prove a different proposition now significantly upped in trip.

Forecasts

Come On John (6/4), National Health (7/2), Bloodhound (4/1), Desert Guest (11/2), Lednikov (11/1), Avarice (20/1), Anticipating (33/1), Misaura (33/1), Artemesia (150/1)

Verdict

Preference is for COME ON JOHN, who has hit the crossbar on several occasions since opening his account for this yard back in October and James Owen's 6-y-o deserves to get the rub of the green (caught further back than ideal here last week). Heading up the dangers is Lednikov, who responded well to front-running tactics to end a long losing run at Southwell recently, while Bloodhound and Desert Guest both warrant a second look, too.
