Excellent record on the all-weather, winning 6 times and placed twice from 9 starts on artificial surfaces. By no means disgraced when fourth of 7 in a conditions race at Wolverhampton (6f) last time but he's opposable now returned to turf off top-weight in this competitive handicap.

Age: 3|  Weight: 9-6| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Grant Tuer| OR:  94| D
Dual winner at Newcastle as a 2-y-o and ended that campaign with a good fourth in a valuable sales race at York. Very pleasing return to action when pulling clear with Sovereign Spell in a C&D handicap at the Craven meeting, beaten ½-length by that rival and now 2 lb better off. Major player.

Age: 3|  Weight: 9-6| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR:  94| BF
Campaigned in pattern company following Salisbury debut success at 2 yrs, largely acquitting himself well. Did so once more when a close third in a first-time tongue strap (retained) on the all-weather at Wolverhampton (Ten Carat Harry not far behind in fourth) but more needed now handicapping.

Rydale Frosty203
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-5| J: James Doyle| T: D M Simcock| OR:  93| D
Made it third time lucky when landing a 6f Windsor novice last summer and didn't disgrace himself in pattern company thereafter, finishing sixth of 13 in a listed race at York on latest start in October. Gelded since and improvement needed on this handicap debut.

Sovereign Spell16
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-3| J: D Egan| T: K P De Foy| OR:  91| CD
Showed plenty of ability at 2 yrs and duly landed the odds on return in 6f Wolverhampton maiden. Built on that when seeing off Advertised and 11 others in a C&D handicap recently and while a 6 lb rise demands more, he's highly likely to be in the thick of things once again.

First Legion16
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-2| J: Shane Foley| T: R Hannon| OR:  90| D
Followed last spring's York debut win with a good second in listed company at Sandown. However, his limitations have seemingly been exposed since and he could finish only sixth in the C&D handicap dominated by Sovereign Spell and Advertised 16 days ago.

Man Of Vision126
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-13| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR:  87
Son of Dubawi who shaped well in 7f novice events at Yarmouth and here prior to opening his account at Wolverhampton during the Christmas period. That was his first run since being gelded and he may well have more to for his top connections now down in trip for this handicap debut.

Pilu212
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-13| J: Tom Marquand| T: R A Teal| OR:  87| D
Looked promising when winning a Bath maiden and Salisbury novice under contrasting conditions last summer. Surrendered his unbeaten record in a 4-runner conditions race at the latter course when last seen in October but wasn't seen to best effect that day and he remains of interest. Handicap debut.

Front Line Fury231
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-13| J: Billy Loughnane| T: George Scott| OR:  87| DWS
Improved to win at Ripon/Haydock and only just denied the hat-trick at Ascot during his 2-y-o campaign. However, he found things tougher in the second half of last season (undergone a breathing operation since last seen) and, more exposed than some, he looks vulnerable.

Naval Lightp134
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-11| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR:  85
Expensive breeze-up purchase who failed to win at 2 yrs but he showed lots of ability at several top tracks. Left the impression that this drop back in trip was in order when third on return in 7f Doncaster novice (first run since gelded) and may do better now handicapping with cheekpieces enlisted.

Angel Of Anfield206
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-11| J: L Morris| T: Tom Clover| OR:  85| BF| D
Off the mark in 9-runner novice at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in August, making all, and followed that with a good second in a Kempton nursery (gelded prior to that run). Yard saddled the winner of this last year and while this one needs to improve in order to emerge on top, he's not discounted.

Kesta189
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-8| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR:  82| D
Produced his best effort yet when notching third win of his 2-y-o campaign in a 6-runner nursery at Nottingham (6f, good to soft) during the autumn. Perhaps the testing conditions were against him when well held next time but others make more appeal all the same.

Forecasts

Sovereign Spell (4/1), Man Of Vision (9/2), Advertised (5/1), Comical Point (6/1), Naval Light (10/1), Rydale Frosty (12/1), Angel Of Anfield (12/1), Front Line Fury (12/1), Pilu (12/1), First Legion (14/1), Ten Carat Harry (14/1), Kesta (33/1)

Verdict

ADVERTISED and Sovereign Spell dominated the finish of a C&D handicap at the Craven meeting and can come to the fore once again, with the former taken to come out on top this time. Grant Tuer's charge enjoys a 2 lb pull having narrowly failed to get to grips with Sovereign Spell and is open to further improvement. Godolphin's Man of Vision is armed with potential and is also shortlisted, along with Angel of Anfield.
