Gold Star Hero (G)
FAV
[P]
Has returned in excellent form, producing improved efforts to make all in 6f handicaps at Chelmsford and Wolverhampton in recent weeks. Should be just as effective back at 5f and taken to complete a hat-trick.

Accrual (G)
[E]
Front runner who has won over 6f here and at Lingfield this winter. Excuses for most of his defeats since (saddle slipped and unseated early latest) so likely in better heart than his recent form figures might imply.

Havana Blast (G)
[HT]
Off 19 months and understandably shaped as if needing the outing when tenth of 12 at Newcastle (5f) 3 weeks ago. Has a refitted hood combined with his tongue tie now. Could last longer this time.

Counsel (G)
[T]
Fourth all-weather win since early last year when edging ahead late on over C&D last month. Should remain very competitive off only 2 lb higher.

Ziggy's Missile (G)
[P]
C&D winner. Added 3 more wins last year but hasn't been seen since October so there's a chance this outing will be needed.

Alondra (F)
Largely on the up since joining current yard, winning twice over C&D in February. However, no more than a respectable fifth of 7 here 39 days ago, merely closing up late.
