9/2
Won three of last five 1m AW starts, most recently first of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (3/1) 6 days ago. Up 4lbs and running under a penalty but further success can't be discounted back over longer trip.

Hurdles winner for Paul Nicholls but offered little in either code for new yard. Ninth of 10 in hurdle race at Doncaster (66/1) 18 days ago and plenty to prove returning to Flat racing.

10/3
Consistent with third-place finishes in three of last four starts, including third of 12 in handicap at Southwell (4/1) 19 days ago. Has proven form at this course and distance, winning here last September and should give his running.

13/8
Showed improved form in recent runs, finishing 3rd and narrow 2nd at this course and distance. Won by 1¾ lengths as 5/1 chance in 5-runner handicap at Chelmsford City 5 days ago. Should go well again despite 5lb penalty.

10/1
Maiden finished sixth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6/1) 13 days ago, after a good third there 29 days ago. Low mileage for age and may improve returning to this C&D where shaped promisingly in October.

5/1
Course specialist with two Wolverhampton wins including one over C&D. Third of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (11/2) 27 days ago, slow away but made good headway 2f out, briefly led 1f out, pulled clear of remainder. Clearly thriving on AW and should be a major player despite slow-starting ways.

40/1
Best effort was a close 3rd at Kempton last August but finished last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (well-backed 7/2 shot) on stable debut 30 days ago. Back down in trip here and worth noting if support comes again.

16/1
C&D winner who finished sixth of 10 in handicap over C&D (10/1) 14 days ago, not settling fully and denied a clear run in the straight. Well suited by this track and could bounce back with better luck in running.

Has won 6 times including 4 at this track but finished seventh of 9 back in headgear at this C&D (25/1) 14 days ago when pulling hard under this jockey. Needs to settle better with cheekpieces retained.

Forecasts

Seraphic (13/8), Stipulation (10/3), Francesi (9/2), Dingwall (5/1), Arth's Gold (10/1), Magic Runner (16/1), Prince Ali (33/1), Seventy (40/1), Golden Move (150/1)

Verdict

C&D winner DINGWALL arrives on the back of an eye-catching third at Newcastle recently despite being slowly away 4 weeks ago. Clearly thriving on the all-weather, he can resume winning ways with a better start. Seraphic has shown much improved form, winning comfortably at Chelmsford City five days ago, while Francesi is in flying form with three recent all-weather wins. Both are respected under a penalty.

  1. Dingwall5/1
  2. Seraphic13/8
  3. Francesi9/2
