5/1
Won first 2 starts but didn't manage to kick on subsequently last year. However, after 6 months off he ran respectably when fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 8/1) 18 days ago and return to 5f should suit.

Off the mark at Wolverhampton in October on final start for Richard Hughes. Failed to come on for seasonal/stable debut when fourth of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 16/1) 20 days ago, so needs to resume his progress.

Winner of a Chelmsford maiden (6f) on second start and bettered that form in defeat when a close third of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 10/1) in January. Can make another bold bid.

Dropped in trip, showed improved form making his third start when second of 10 in maiden at Southwell (5f, 2/1) in November. Has been gelded since and he remains with potential now handicapping. Major player.

8/1
Recorded third win from 4 starts when making all at Southwell (6.1f) in January. Lesser effort when ninth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at the same C&D 41 days ago, but he's not one to write off given his previous run of form.

Opened account at fifth time of asking when making all in 4-runner maiden at Brighton (5.3f, good, evens) in September. Task is now to pick up where he left off as he goes handicapping after 7-month absence.

With reappearance run behind her, justified support (5/4) when winning 9-runner maiden at Southwell (5f) 17 days ago, reverted to more positive tactics. Will need to find more again back in a handicap.

8/1
Improved from debut when winning at Catterick (5f) last May. Her form was in-and-out subsequently, though, ending the year with a below-par fifth of 10 in nursery at the same C&D (soft, 7/4) in October.

Forecasts

Dothan (3/1), Fiorella Princess (4/1), Pont Neuf (5/1), Alondra (13/2), Acrisius (15/2), Brazilian Belle (8/1), Blue Lakota (8/1), Invincible Crown (16/1)

Verdict

DOTHAN benefited from the drop to 5f when runner-up at Southwell on his final outing last year, a race which has produced 3 subsequent winners, and he can continue his progress having been gelded ahead of his handicap debut. He is taken to get the better of Fiorella Princess, who ran her best race last time, with Blue Lakota also considered.

  1. Dothan3/1
  2. Fiorella Princess4/1
  3. Blue Lakota8/1
