9/2
Had busy start to career, winning twice from 5 starts, including handicap debut success at Wolverhampton in November. Found his development stalling when only fifth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (4/1) later that month but retains promise given his pedigree and has been freshened up since.

Has been campaigning over hurdles, winning a novice at Stratford in July. Not disgraced when fourth at Plumpton when last seen in October. Likely to be sharper for the run on return to the Flat.

Hasn't won in 20 races since his debut but shaped fairly encouragingly when third of 6 at this C&D (11/1) 28 days ago, seeing it out well having been worst placed when the pace lifted. Eased a 1 lb so not taken lightly.

Free-going sort who has yet to win from 6 runs but has shown promise in handicaps, including when third of 10 at Epsom (5/1) when last seen in September. Plenty about him to think he can do better as he gains experience, particularly when he starts to relax better.

Lightly-raced filly with two wins from four starts, namely novice here a year ago and handicap at Newcastle last month. Still learning on the job and will continue to go the right way.

Progressive over hurdles for this yard since last running on the Flat, going close in a Grade 2 at Wincanton in November. Still a maiden in this sphere but showed his best form on AW when trained in France. Looks interesting.

Tried hurdling without success in 3 starts in the autumn but ran on well returned to the Flat when third of 13 in handicap at this C&D (9/1) 14 days ago. Capable of going well if building on that.

Lightly-raced gelding yet to win in 5 starts, fifth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford (13/2) 34 days ago on AW debut. Might have needed that run after 6 months off but looks to be on a stiff mark.

Well held both starts last season and fared no better at this course on return. Plenty to prove.

Forecasts

Selenic (11/4), Hamlet's Night (7/2), Solarize (9/2), Criminal (11/2), Son Of Man (15/2), Desert Heart (9/1), Golden Circet (14/1), Nap Hand (20/1), Torcello (125/1)

Verdict

SOLARIZE found his development stalling upped in grade at Southwell in November but he had had a hectic start to his career and remains with potential following a break, and some of his earlier form has worked out well. Selenic is open to further improvement having won with a bit in hand at Newcastle, while Hamlet's Night has developed into a useful hurdler for this yard since last running on the Flat so looks an interesting contender.
