Course winner finished 5 lengths fourth of 7 at Lingfield over 7f (13/2) 9 days ago, though he's probably better at this sort of trip nowadays and could be more competitive.

Still in form despite being unable to maintain his run of in-frame finishes when fifth of 8 at Newcastle last month. Should be in the mix back down in grade.

Quirky sort was narrowly denied by Pessoa over C&D last time and probably would have won had he applied himself better. In fine heart for new yard though, and ought to go close again off unchanged mark.

Draw could have been kinder but still appeals off only 1 lb higher than when landing his third C&D success (beat Book of Life by a neck) 10 days ago

Lightly-raced maiden returns (had breathing operation in interim) in first-time cheekpieces, which isn't a surprise given he went with little fluency on handicap debut in August.

Hasn't stood much racing in recent seasons but did finish third behind a subsequent winner on reappearance at Kempton last week. Not dismissed if building on that.

10/1
Two-time C&D winner ended a lengthy losing run in classified company at Lingfield (16/1) in January, and while there's some mitigation for latest defeat (caught wide), she has more on her plate in slightly better grade.

Forecasts

Book Of Life (15/8), Pessoa (10/3), Concert Boy (4/1), Pitney (6/1), Always Fearless (9/1), Kaaress (10/1), Sovereign Lad (33/1), Scarlet Widow (40/1), Ghaiyyath Park (40/1)

Verdict

PESSOA is a fairly solid proposition over C&D and may confirm recent placings with in-form Book of Life, who isn't entirely straightforward. Concert Boy is another to consider down in grade.
