Expert Eye gelding. Was supported in the market and showed a bit on belated debut when fourth of 9 in novice at Southwell (1½m, 9/1) 11 days ago. Should last longer this time though has to concede weight all round to the 3-y-os switched to the turf.

Ulysses gelding. 8/1, third of 12 in novice at this course (1m, good to firm) on debut last August. Has been gelded since. That race has worked out quite well and he has obvious claims stepping up in trip.

Forecasts

Urchin (4/9), Sea And Sun (10/3), Sun Lord (11/1), Poppeye (12/1), Picaro (14/1), N'ion (200/1), Rocky River (250/1)

Verdict

URCHIN made a pleasing debut at this course last year and can open his account on return. Poppeye should learn from his recent debut and can chase him home from Picaro, who looks just about the pick of the newcomers.

  1. Urchin4/9
  2. Poppeye12/1
  3. Picaro14/1
