Back To Cali (G)
FAV
Back to form on final start for John Joseph Hanlon when third in a big-field Cork handicap in early-April. Subsequently sold for €24,000 and could well get off the mark on first run for red-hot Skelton yard.

Slack Alice (M)
[V]
Steadily progressive sort opened her account in decisive fashion at Market Rasen last time and is expected to go close off 7 lb higher in similar company.

4583-31 | S Bowen | M Bowen | 5 | 76.2 kg |

| 6th | 3 | — |
North Account (G)
Showed little in 3 Irish maidens. Has joined useful yard since unseating in a point (6/4 favourite) last month and could be an improver on handicap debut.

000-U | Harry Reed | Nick Scholfield | 6 | 68.9 kg |

Vesalius (G)
[P1]
Fared no better for the switch to a handicap at Bangor last month. Cheekpieces go on first time.

Mc'flo (M)
Headstrong sort. Ran one of her better races when sixth behind Slack Alice at Market Rasen last time, but that's still only poor form.

P65-896 | J M Quinlan | A Carson | 5 | 65.3 kg |

Alex The Great (G)
[T]
Regressive stayer on Flat. Made little impact on handicap hurdle debut at Worcester (2m) latest and hard to be confident now tried over longer trip.

0-88705 | R T Dunne | A W Carroll | 6 | 65.3 kg |

French Diablo (G)
[H]
Handicap debutant hasn't shown much in 3 starts, but he warrants a market check here.

68-P | Paddy Hanlon | M Comley | 4 | 64.4 kg |

Betting forecast: Back To Cali (1/2), Slack Alice (11/4), Alex The Great (18/1), French Diablo (22/1), North Account (22/1), Mc'flo (25/1), Vesalius (25/1)
