In good heart on all-weather this winter and unsuited by the way the race developed back on turf last 2 starts. This distance seemed to stretch him a bit here in January, though.

10/1
Best effort since leaving Ed Walker when second at Yarmouth last month and backed that up despite being poorly placed when runner-up there 11 days ago. Worth a try at this trip and live contender.

Made second handicap start a winning one over C&D in February and quickly back on track when second over further here 3 weeks ago. Remains unexposed and Oisin Murphy is a positive jockey booking.

Has lost her way since going close over C&D last summer, well held starting out for this yard here 2 weeks ago.

8/1
Often slowly away but was a 3-time winner last year (including here) and arrives on the back of a career-best victory at Bath 12 days ago, all out. First 2 had the rest of the field spread out in behind that day so 3 lb rise isn't insurmountable.

Doesn't boast the best of strike rates and not entirely straightforward but has held his form well since joining this yard, placed again when second here 2 weeks ago.

Has tumbled to a grade where he has to merit some interest but he has his own way of going about things nowadays and again got too far back when third over C&D last time.

Took advantage of the drop into classified company when winning at Newcastle in March but struggled back in a handicap at Nottingham since.

This his level nowadays but still not showing enough to suggest he can strike off a career-low mark.

Ended losing run over C&D in March and good placed efforts since, including when just failing over C&D latest. Can go well again.

Forecasts

Wave Rock (2/1), Arlecchino's Rex (6/1), Book Of Life (13/2), Wicklow Way (8/1), Brinton (8/1), Merapi (10/1), Relevant Range (11/1), Tiger Beetle (12/1), Crafter (14/1), Molly Valentine (16/1), Beat The Odds (125/1)

Verdict

MERAPI is threatening to come good soon and she's worth a go at this longer distance given how she's been shaping. Brinton arrives on the back of a personal best at Bath, while Arlecchino's Rex was arguably unlucky not to score over C&D last month.
