Belied market weakness when returning to winning ways over shorter trip at Wolverhampton last month and wasn't seen to best effect in follow-up bid over same C&D 24 days ago. Warrants respect.

Found run of good form coming to a halt in a change of headgear Lingfield last time. Blinkers back on now but proving difficult to win with.

Failed to fire for Martin Dunne, sixth in Wolverhampton handicap in December. Difficult to recommend for new yard unless market suggests otherwise.

Below par at Lingfield latest but has already registered 2 victories over C&D this year so must be respected.

Finished with running left when seventh in handicap over this trip at Wolverhampton on debut for new yard 9 days ago. Visor on first time. Interesting contender.

Dual scorer last year who arrives on the back of respectable fifth of 10 in handicap over shorter trip at Wolverhampton 13 days ago. Visor added for polytrack debut and must enter calculations.

Back on scoreboard at Brighton in September but been more miss than hit since and returns from break with something to prove.

Made the frame again, back from 5 months off, when fourth of 6 in handicap over this trip at Lingfield 21 days ago, left poorly placed. Can make presence felt.

Belatedly off the mark over C&D last month but hasn't really built on that and his overall profile is somewhat off putting.

Finally opened account here (1m) last month and wasn't disgraced, off 2 lb higher, when fourth at this course 9 days later. Others appeal more, however.

Forecasts

Caragio (2/1), King David (11/2), Bint Havana Gold (11/2), Devious Devan (15/2), Orbital Chime (10/1), My Boy Harry (10/1), Shades Of May (14/1), Francisco (14/1), Sanditon (14/1), Macarone (14/1), The Organiser (33/1)

Verdict

ORBITAL CHIME figures off a handy mark and caught the eye on debut for James Owen at Wolverhampton last week. He makes plenty of appeal. Macarone and Bint Havana Gold should also go well.
