Deservedly scored at Newcastle for Rebecca Menzies when last seen in 2024. Worth betting check starting out for new yard after 18 months off.

Consistent on the whole last winter when trained by Jim & Suzi Best and then James Owen. Returned lame when last seen 7 months ago and is probably best watched after another yard switch.

Gained reward for consistency when winning at Chelmsford in February. Failed to really settle under an inexperienced amateur last time and should be closer to form here going back up in trip.

In top form and was better than ever when winning 10-runner handicap (10/3) at this course (11f) 8 days ago on just his second start for John Butler. Another big run expected up in trip.

Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap (18/1) at this C&D 22 days ago, getting first run. Visor reapplied now and overall profile suggests he's not certain to back that up.

Winner at Lingfield in December and has finished second 3 times since, including in a minor event at Wolverhampton last month. Not too good in handicap here last time but back down in grade with tongue strap tried.

Remains winless but ran well at huge odds when second at Newcastle in February, first-time headgear presumably the catalyst. Needs to back that up.

Forecasts

Jack Andrea (5/4), Sycamore Gap (13/2), Lednikov (7/1), Arth's Gold (17/2), Silkies Sib (17/2), Backer Bilk (11/1), Yakhabar (14/1), Late Claim (14/1), Heartened (28/1), Easter Sundae (33/1)

Verdict

JACK ANDREA arrives in top form and is fancied to make it 3 wins from his last 4 outings. Lednikov took advantage of a falling mark over 1¾m here last time and is respected again despite a hefty rise for that wide-margin win. Late Claim is also considered back down in class.

  1. Jack Andrea5/4
  2. Lednikov7/1
  3. Late Claim14/1
