5/1
Won back-to-back races on the All Weather last year and has bettered that in both starts this season, over 1m4f/1m1f. Latter trip looked just a little sharp last time at Sandown, so should appreciate today's distance. Claims if cheekpieces work.

11/2
Has improved on some very solid novice form from last year since returning in April and beat Atkinson Grimshaw (runs in 1.45) at Ayr (1m2f, good) last time. Up 5lb for that, but may well be more to come from this improving filly.

Has made significant improvement on his juvenile form this term, winning handicaps at Windsor (1m) and last time at Chester (1m2½f, good to firm). A 6lb rise looks stiff enough for what was a muddling race, but certainly can't rule him out.

6/4
Went close twice over 1m½f at Wolverhampton, before winning here over C&D (good to firm) last month, on just his second handicap run. Up 5lb for that, but looked in control that day, is unexposed and is well worth considering.

Scored here over 1m (soft) in a novices' race last September. Couldn't make any impact in handicaps until posting a career-best in winning at Chester (1m2½f, good to firm) last time. Up just 1lb for that and back on the right track now. Claims.

Verdict

Another fascinating contest and one in which DIVE FOR GOLD looks as though he may have got in lightly and is taken to score on his handicap debut. Epaulement perhaps heads up the list of dangers, with Exhort and Deyaarna others of significant interest.
  1. Dive For Gold
  2. Epaulement
  3. Exhort
