20/1

C&D winner in 2022. On a long losing run but he was in good nick over hurdles this winter so can't be ruled out back in this sphere after a break for all this trip may be slightly on the sharp side.

2/1

Low-mileage 4-y-o who was tongue tied when a promising fourth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton 18 days ago, nearest finish having been forced wide home turn. Goes up in trip now with cheekpieces added. Weighted to go very close eased 1 lb.

Forecasts

The Ubermensch (2/1), Sweet Kiss (9/4), Division Day (4/1), It's Only Fun (15/2), Muhib (15/2), Animato (20/1), Letmeseethecolts (25/1)

THE UBERMENSCH caught the eye when running on into fourth at Wolverhampton last time having been forced wide to challenge and can gain a breakthrough victory off a 1 lb lower mark here. Sweet Kiss also shaped well when fourth at Carlisle a week ago and rates a big threat though. The Brian Ellison-trained duo Letmeseethecolts and Division Day can fight it out for minor honours.
