Showed very little on debut on his sole turf outing but has been progressing well on AW this winter with three wins from five subsequent starts. Well beaten on AW Final's Day but not ruled out if he bounces back and is as effective on turf.

Well backed to win on debut at Bath last year before a disappointing last in Listed class. Not seen until a win at Kempton last month and shaped like he could come on for that run but handicapper has taken no chances with his mark.

Won his second start at Kempton and shaped well on his return to that course last month when third of 11. Should come on for that run and he's an interesting runner here if he can settle better.

4/1
Improving with every start last year and won twice at the end of last season. Dangerous to gift an easy lead to but little chance of that with plenty of pace in the line up and needs more from this mark.

7/2
Showed promise in his first three starts and didn't need to improve to win at Kempton on his return to action in February. Form of that race not strong but there could be more to come and yard do well around here.

Still a maiden after 10 starts but ran a stormer here at the Craven Meeting. Drop back in trip not necessarily a positive though and handicapper hasn't missed him.

Running well on AW this winter and produced just about a career best over C&D last time out when runner-up of nine. Obvious danger to all off the same mark here.

Class 5 handicap winner at Newcastle in March but struggled off his revised mark back at that course last time out. While not dismissed on his return to turf, he may want faster ground than what's likely here.

50/1
Record a hat-trick on AW this winter and not beaten far last time out when third of four at Chelmsford. The step back up in trip could suit here and the yard who excel with their sprinters are in good form at present. Interesting runner.

Winner on debut at Nottingham and recovered from a blip when placed at Wolverhampton last time. Hard to assess on handicap debut returning from an absence but the suspicion is her mark looks a little high on what she's achieved.

Maiden winner at Nottingham but largely struggled at pattern level for the remainder of 2017. Shaped with some promise on return to action at Wolverhampton and hard to rule out upped in trip.

Forecasts

Tribal Quest (7/2), Chagatai (7/2), Yafta (4/1), Galloway Hills (6/1), Barton Mills (7/1), Vj Day (10/1), Prestbury Park (16/1), Crotchet (20/1), Count Otto (25/1), Ambient (25/1), Wings Of The Rock (25/1), Grandfather Tom (50/1)

Verdict

GALLOWAY HILLS looked impressive when runner-up to a useful looking sort here at the Craven Meeting and he gets the vote in what looks like a particularly competitive heat. There should be more to come from the likes of Barton Mills and Grandfather Tom and they rate as the main dangers.
  1. Galloway Hills
  2. Barton Mills
  3. Grandfather Tom
