18/5
Off the mark for present connections at Kempton (7f) in October and, nudged up 2 lb, he ran creditably when sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (7f, AW) 14 days ago, weakening final 100 yds. Likely to be thereabouts again.

15/2
Course winner who capitalised on his much lower turf mark when landing 10-runner handicap at Brighton (7f, good) in June. Absent since and possible the market will prove a good guide here.

Latest win at Chelmsford (6f) in November. 15/2, bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 14 days ago, plugging on. No forlorn hope.

7/2
Tremendous servant to connections who bagged Great St Wilfrid at Ripon (6f) in August. Hasn't been operating at his best more recently, weakening final 1f when fifth of 7 in seller at Southwell (6.1f) 21 days ago. Handicapper has certainly given him a chance if bouncing back, however.

7/2
4-time course winner. 3 wins from 8 runs this year. 16/1, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D (AW) 9 days ago, driven out. No surprise to see him out under a penalty and he's respected.

17/2
Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2024. 2/1, not disgraced when third of 9 in handicap at this course (5f, AW) 14 days ago. Lurking on a handy mark but all 3 of his career victories have come at the minimum trip.

Forecasts

Valley Ofthe Kings (3/1), Intervention (7/2), Counsel (7/2), Society Man (18/5), Tiger Crusade (15/2), Mc Loven (17/2)

Verdict

SOCIETY MAN has got himself right back on track returned to all-weather of late and, essentially unexposed as a sprinter, could be worth siding with to come out on top despite the possibility of a tactical race. Counsel comes here in excellent heart and is next best ahead of Mc Loven, whilst a good pace to aim at will help the returning Tiger Crusade.

  2. Counsel7/2
  3. Mc Loven17/2
