The Sweet Escapet33
Age: 4|  Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D Loughnane| OR:  59
Below par in recent starts but nicely handicapped on the pick of last year's form now dropping into a 0-60 for the first time with Billy Loughnane doing the steering. Worth chancing.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-7| J: Paddy Bradley| T: I Mohammed| OR:  57| CD
Opened her account at the twelfth attempt when seeing off 7 rivals over C&D just under 6 weeks ago. Her overall record suggests she wouldn't be certain to back that up.

Successful over this trip at Southwell in November. Back on form when a close third at Wolverhampton in February but below par back there since. Blinkers off, visor back on.

Merapi16
Age: 4|  Weight: 9-7| J: K S McHugh(7)| T: Michael Keady| OR:  57
Maiden but not long with this yard and offered a bit of promise when fifth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 16 days ago, nearest finish. Claims if she can build on that.

Eutropia16
Age: 4|  Weight: 9-6| J: Finley Marsh| T: A Wintle| OR:  56
Largely in good form since joining Adrian Wintle, winning at Lingfield (1¼m) last month. Creditable third of 11 at Wolverhampton (8.6f) since, caught further back than ideal. Considered.

Borderline Madness108
Age: 4|  Weight: 9-6| J: J Mitchell| T: W Stone| OR:  56| D
Latest win at Lingfield (1m, polytrack) in September. Just as good when second at Southwell (1m) in November and not beaten far when seventh back at Lingfield in December. Been off for 108 days.

Won over 8.6f at Wolverhampton in December. Second over 7f here in January and another creditable effort when keeping on for fourth over 7f at Southwell last time. Thereabouts.

Forecasts

Fast Bullet (9/4), Eutropia (4/1), Charlatan (5/1), Borderline Madness (7/1), The Sweet Escape (8/1), Amber Honey (8/1), Merapi (10/1), Berning Hot (20/1)

Verdict

The suggestion in an open race is the class-dropping THE SWEET ESCAPE, who has the services of Billy Loughnane for the first time. Eutropia has had a decent spell since switching to Adrian Wintle and is second choice ahead of Merapi and Charlatan.
