9/2
Consistent performer who has finished 4th in five consecutive handicaps. Fourth of 10 in handicap over C&D (5/1) 7 days ago when racing freely, short of room 1f out but ran on. Needs to settle better to improve on recent string of placed efforts.

Shown fair form on the all-weather this winter. Sixth of 10 in handicap over course and distance (22/1) 7 days ago, keeping on when short of room late on. Others look better treated.

7/2
Back to best when third at Wolverhampton but finished sixth of 9 in handicap over 12f at Lingfield (16/1) 14 days ago, looking half-hearted with no response final 1f. Previous effort over this C&D was poor when sixth as favourite and he's probably not one for maximum faith.

40/1
Showed fair AW form to hit frame twice over 1m Lingfield but no impact sent hurdling, finished last of 10 in hurdle race at Newbury (80/1) 31 days ago. Returns to Flat for handicap debut with hood removed and worth a market check now stepping up in trip.

7/2
Failed to build on promising second at Wolverhampton in October, finishing 7th of 10 in handicap at Southwell (11f, 9/4) 14 days ago when failing to settle. First-time hood should help him settle better and he'd been a danger to all if back to his early season form.

9/1
Inconsistent performer who ran a more encouraging race when 3rd of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (18/1) 18 days ago, keeping on well. Hasn't been long with capable yard and may build on that improved effort stepping back up to 10f.

28/1
Runner-up twice in turf handicaps in August/September. Still in good form when well held fourth over 1½m before finishing 5th of 9 in a hurdle race at Kempton (5/1) 90 days ago. Eased slightly in grade on return to all-weather surface and could be competitive back over a shorter trip.

11/4
Won 3 consecutive AW races, including twice at this course/distance, most recently as 5/6 favourite 26 days ago (won smoothly by 1¼ lengths). Up 5lbs now but strong-travelling style suits all-weather and capable of landing the 4-timer.

10/1
Course and distance winner who tends to race freely and finished third of 9 in a handicap at this C&D (13/2) 46 days ago, still in good form. Should remain competitive despite rise in grade.

Forecasts

Tommy's Promise (11/4), Eupator (7/2), King's Hand (7/2), Meet Me In Meraki (9/2), Riyadh Gem (9/1), Muy Muy Loco (10/1), Lenny's Spirit (20/1), Bohemian Breeze (28/1), Dodging The Bullet (40/1)

Verdict

TOMMY'S PROMISE has won his last three, including twice over C&D, and his strong-travelling style suggests he can defy a 5lb rise to land the four-timer. Meet Me In Meraki has been consistently in the frame but needs to settle better to resume winning ways, while King's Hand could be dangerous if a first-time hood has the desired effect.
