11/1
Made all to record tenth C&D win at Lingfield over 5f 29 days ago. 3 lb higher mark to contend with but dangerous to dismiss with the potential for an easy lead.

Benefited from fitting of eyeshields this year, readily supplementing breakthrough Chelmsford success at Wolverhampton (5.1f). Not seen to best effect in her hat-trick bid prior to finishing lame at Nottingham.

7/2
4-time winner on turf last year who looks to be coming to the boil again, finishing second behind a thriving rival over 6f here on Monday. Looks a definite player again for stable continuing in fine form.

8/15
Dual scorer for Martin Dunne who showed improved form on first outing since leaving that yard when winning 11-runner handicap at Southwell (5f) 31 days ago, well on top finish. 6 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another good run.

20/1
Left debut form behind when second of 12 in 5f maiden at Dundalk in January 2025. Understandably shaped as if needing the run on first outing since leaving Kieran Patrick Cotter at Southwell 13 months on. Into handicaps now and should last longer than on his recent comeback.

Forecasts

Ancient State (8/15), Lequinto (7/2), Spendmore Lane (15/2), Mick's Spirit (11/1), Aleppo Pepper (20/1)

Verdict

ANCIENT STATE settled better than previously when running out a convincing winner on first start for Adam Kirby at Southwell last month and a 6 lb higher mark doesn't look enough to prevent the following up given he remains unexposed at the minimum trip. Lequinto arrives on the back of solid placed efforts and is feared most ahead of prolific course winner Mick's Spirit.
