Lion of Mali (G)
FAV
Has proved a different model since being gelded, making it 3 wins from his last 4 starts with a tenacious display at Leicester (7f) by ½ length from Eduardo Calderon. Raised just 2 lb for that and big shout again provided he's as effective…

Eduardo Calderon (G)
Promise initially in maidens last year and much improved switched to a handicap/after 6 months off when edged out by Lion of Mali at Leicester (7f) 26 days ago. 1 lb better off with that rival here and feasible to think he could yet have m…

Stoic Poet (G)
Best effort as a 2-y-o when third in an Ayr novice (7f) in July (fair form) and back to something like that level after 7 months off when fourth at Newcastle (6f) 3 weeks ago. Drops in class back over a longer trip and each-way claims from…

Bluebluelectricblu (F)
Showed much improved form when fourth on third start at Wolverhampton (6f) in November but proved disappointing at Lingfield the following month. Given a break ahead of this handicap debut and the betting can prove a useful guide.

Supreme Clarets (G)
Winless at 2 yrs but proved largely consistent and stepped up on his reappearance despite not being seen to anything like best effect when fourth at Wetherby (7f) 25 days ago. Underfoot conditions will hold no fears and he's of interest ba…

Kiani King (C)
Persian King colt took a small step forward from debut when fourth of 9 in novice at Wolverhampton (6f) in April. However, looked a very hard ride when ninth of 10 on qualifying run at Kempton (6f) 17 days ago. That has to be a concern no…

Tekitoff (G)
Improved by the run for new yard, albeit better placed than most when off the mark in 9-runner handicap at Doncaster (7f) 3 weeks ago. Still, that ought not to prove his limit on the back of just 5 career starts.

Euphonia (F)
Well backed on the back of a 6-week break and showed much improved form when landing a big field handicap at Leicester (7f) 38 days ago, the return to 7f/turf both possible catalysts. Got the job done authoritatively then and of interest d…

Sun Of Dolly (G)
Twilight Son gelding who showed the benefit of his reappearance run and ran his best race when fourth on handicap debut at Windsor (6f) 17 days ago, faring best of those from off the pace. Unexposed at 7f but this does look a deeper affair.

Go Victor (G)
Successful from this mark at Thirsk (6f) in July but ended 2-y-o campaign under a cloud and disconcerting he was eased off when last of 12 on return to action at Southwell (6f) 44 days ago.

Sparkling Pink (F)
Made a winning nursery debut at Pontefract for Jonathan Portman last summer and posted easily her best effort for present yard when third at Doncaster (7f) 26 days ago. Task is to build on that effort now.

This Rib (G)
Son of Ribchester who didn't go without promise in 7f maiden/novice events on all-weather/turf during second half of last year. Promises to do better now handicapping as a 3-y-o (has been gelded) and noteworthy if the market spoke in his f…
