11/4
Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Close third at Pontefract on return but only seventh of 10 in handicap (5/1) at Wetherby (8f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Worth another chance.

7/1
Temperamental sort. 1 win from 3 runs this year. 25/1, as good as ever when winning 13-runner handicap at Newbury (8f, firm) 5 days ago, suited by way race developed. Not an obvious one to follow up.

Forecasts

Power Of Gold (11/4), Cooperation (11/4), Believe You Me (9/2), Soi Dao (6/1), Marsh Benham (7/1), Ultramarine (10/1), Diamondsinthesand (25/1), Double Time (40/1)

Verdict

COOPERATION has done the bulk of his winning on turf and came out a ready winner having his first start on this surface for these connections at Newmarket on Friday. He's able to race off the same mark here so should take plenty of beating. Three-time C&D winner Believe You Me should come on for her return so is next best ahead of Power of Gold.
