Evanesco (C)
Right back on track when defeating a pair of next-time-out winners at Salisbury (1m) in September. Not disgraced back up in grade when mid-field at Longchamp on final start in October and he's not discounted now making handicap debut on re…

Oratorical (C)
Well served by the increased emphasis on stamina when opening his account in clearcut fashion on third start at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) in October. Never landed a blow in listed company on final start but this more suitable up in trip and…

Tailgunner Joe (G)
Kept busy in Meydan since the turn of the year, landing a big field 1m handicap in February. Subsequent sixth over 9f there last month was another solid effort and fitness edge over most a definite plus.

Archers Bay (C)
[P]
Stepped up with each run for Aidan O'Brien and displayed a good attitude in change of headgear (switched yards 30,000 gns) when winning from the front at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in December. Assessor looks to have taken no chances with openin…

High Storm (G)
FAV
Bred to be useful over middle distances and he's improved each run to date, building on his Southwell reappearance when landing 9-runner Doncaster maiden (1¼m) 18 days ago. Feasible to think he could do better again now handicapping for to…

The Joker (C)
Zarak colt who showed something like debut form when second in a Sandown maiden (7f, soft) in August. Well below best in 7f novice here on final outing but very much bred to be suited by this increase in trip, so interesting if there's con…

Ranga Tang (C)
[P1]
Lope de Vega colt who improved with each run as a 2-y-o, headed near line when second in novice at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in November. Goes handicapping from what looks a good opening mark and this increase in trip promises to suit. Interest…

Waterford Castle (G)
Son of Sea The Stars who chased home a next-time-out winner on return/stable debut and probably improved a little more when again finding only one too good on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 18 days ago. Fancied to be in the mix aga…

Impossible Mission (C)
Showed improved form when making a successful handicap debut in 6-runner event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) last November. Not ideally placed and never figured on reappearance at Lingfield last month but that ought to have blown the cobwebs awa…
