Port Darwin (G)
FAV
[B]
Made a successful nursery debut at Musselburgh but progress stalled afterwards. However, in first-time blinkers he got back on track when second in 1½m handicap at Kempton 8 days ago. Can make a bold bid from his current mark.

Lady Vanguard (F)
From a talented family and took a step forward on handicap debut when fourth of 8 at Yarmouth (1m) last month, albeit having the run of the race. Could still have more to offer over this longer distance.

Bradbury (G)
FAV
[T]
Little impact in a trio of novices last year. However, in first-time tongue strap, he stepped forward from seasonal/handicap debut when never-nearer fourth of 11 at Wolverhampton (1½m) 11 days ago. Capable of better again.

Fuzeyya (F)
Stoutly bred but failed to improve upped to 1½m when last of 5 on seasonal/handicap debut at Wolverhampton in March. Well held dropped back to 1¼m at Newcastle 25 days ago.

Heated Moment (F)
Modest form for Ollie Sangster as a 2-y-o. After 4 months off ahead of stable debut, possibly needed the run when fifth of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (1¼m) 17 days ago, so she's worth another chance at this trip as she drops back in grade.

Evergreen Emerald (F)
Down the field in a trio of starts at around 7f last year, well held in novice at Redcar on final outing. Appeals as the type to do better in handicaps, though, with pedigree suggesting that this extra distance will suit. Market could be i…

Mereside Princess (F)
[B]
Still looking for a breakthrough victory, but having had excuses on penultimate start she returned to form when fourth of 8 in handicap at Wetherby (1m) 12 days ago. Up in trip so will need to settle better with blinkers reapplied.

Riddikulus (F)
[B]
From a useful middle-distance family but upped to 1¼m she finished last of 6 on seasonal/handicap debut at Newcastle in January. With blinkers added, seemed unsuited by drop back to 1m when fourth of 8 at the same course last time. Makes t…

Vietnorm (G)
No better than mid-division in his 3 novices last year, but switched to nurseries he made little impression when sixth of 8 at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in December. Has something to find as he goes up in distance on return (has been gelded).
