Lordsbridge Grey (G)
FAV
[T]
Showed more when third on handicap bow at Yarmouth last September. That form has taken a few knocks, though it's still early days, and he's undergone a gelding/breathing operation ahead of this return. Tongue strap goes back on.

Everyoneknowsadave (G)
[P]
Two-time course winner failed to come on for his reappearance when sixth of 9 here last time. Significantly back down in trip with cheekpieces refitted, but it's hard to be confident.

Holly Mist (F)
Hasn't matched the best of her novice form in either handicap start to date, though she again came from a less-than-ideal position when fourth of 10 at Beverley last time, and isn't one to give up on yet.

Roaring Ralph (G)
[B]
Thriving sort who hammered a next-time-out winner when landing a C&D hat-trick in late-March and a 9 lb rise may not be enough to prevent the 4-timer.

Sean Kirrane | M Dods | 6 | 60.3 kg |

Gallant Lion (G)
Won a 1½m handicap at Chepstow this time last year. Drops in grade on return to the Flat following a pipe-opener over hurdles, though hasn't raced over a trip this short since his 2-y-o days.

Edward Greatrex | Ian Williams | 6 | 60.3 kg |

| 3rd | 6 | 8 |
Avatar Jet (G)
Doubled his career tally with a game C&D success on second start for new yard, and should be competitive off 3 lb higher, provided he's in similar form 12 days on.

Zak Wheatley | D Carroll | 5 | 59.9 kg |

| 8th | 7 | 2 |
Give Me The Night (G)
[T]
Failed to progress in handicaps last year but shaped as if needing the run when fourth of 9 at Kempton on reappearance and does at least benefit from a drop in grade.

K Stott | M G Rimell | 4 | 59.4 kg |

Soames Forsyte (G)
[P]
Quirky type who bounced back from a spell in the doldrums to spring a surprise over C&D in January. Race wasn't ideally run to suit when 3¾ lengths fifth of 10 to Avatar Jet here last time but no guarantee that this plays out more favourab…

Bellasio (G)
Ended the turf season in fine heart, going down only to a course specialist at Redcar last July, but he has more to do in a better race on his return to the all-weather.
|
Oliver Stammers | Grant Tuer | 5 | 59 kg |

10/1
|
| 9th | 10 | 10 |
Jamaican Storm (G)
All but backed up the form of his breakthrough Newcastle success when fourth of 13 at Thirsk last time, though he probably isn't entirely straightforward and doesn't look to have much in hand.

P Mulrennan | B Smart | 4 | 59 kg |

Military Leader (G)
[B]
Firmly knocking on the door in all-weather handicaps last winter, only narrowly going down to a thriving rival at Newcastle in December, and he's sure to go close if ready to roll.
