Havana Mojito (G)
[P]
Finds himself 2 lb lower than when landing a double at Brighton this time last year and he made a solid return to action when fourth of 8 at Bath.

Ravenglass (G)
[P]
Back on his last successful mark. but it's hard to be confident, having regressed from his reappearance when well held at Wolverhampton last time. Cheekpieces replace blinkers.

| 8th | 3 | 11 |
Oh So Audacious (M)
Won 3 times at Brighton for Harry Eustace but was below form there in October and the market may prove the best guide on first start for a new yard following 7 months off.

| 4th | 4 | 2 |
Back From Dubai (G)
Dropped back in trip, he saw his race out well when successful in a similar event at Doncaster (7f) last time. A stronger pace could see him in an even better light here and he should make a bold bid to follow up.

Grand Citadel (M)
FAV
[B]
On the same mark as when landing her sole career win in this race 12 months ago and while she shaped well when a clear runner-up at Lingfield last time, the forecast strong pace isn't ideal for one with her style.

Edergole's Gift (M)
[TP]
Back on her last successful mark following an inconsistent run of form, not on a going day when well-held in this grade at Yarmouth (6f) last time.

Melissa Honey (F)
Maiden hit the frame in higher grade handicaps as a 3-y-o and makes appeal on the back of a creditable fourth over 6f at Southwell on her latest start.

Mini Mac (G)

Hasn't won since this time last year but ran respectably off his falling mark when fourth of 16 in a similar handicap at Doncaster latest.

Blue Point Express (F)
Off the mark on heavy ground at Chepstow in September but no threat since, finishing fifth of 12 on her latest start at Wolverhampton in November.

Fitzmaurice (G)
Ex-William Haggas maiden who offered little in 4 starts for Camilla Poulton and wasn't given a hard time when down the field on first start for current yard at Southwell (9/1).
|
0-57687 | William Carson | A W Carroll | 4 | 57.6 kg |

Rokuni (G)
Extended a long losing run when well beaten on final start for Christine Dunnett in September but on a career-low mark for new yard and has hit the frame a couple of times at this track.
