7/1
Useful sort who capitalised on a drop in grade in cosy fashion at Musselburgh a fortnight ago. Remains well treated on old form and should be thereabouts.

13/2
Five-time 7f/1m winner in 2022 and has run with credit on both outings this term, fifth of 17 at Newmarket 8 days ago. Should give another good account.

Useful handicapper on turf and did well to overcome a poor position to defy his lower AW mark at Newcastle 5 days ago. Penalty makes life tougher, though.

Usually gives his running and was a bit better than the result at Wolverhampton a couple of months ago. Not discounted from a fair mark.

Is highly consistent and shaped well when second at Thirsk on reappearance, never nearer. Type to be suited by a well-run race and could prevail.

13/2
C&D winner who travelled well when second at Redcar on return. Needs more to defy this mark but may well make a better 4yo, so he's worth considering.

28/1
23¼ lengths tenth of 12 to On A Session in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, soft, 33/1) 14 days ago. On a reasonable mark and should be closer to form now back up to a more suitable distance.

Ended last season with a poor run and didn't fire on Ripon reappearance. Could strip fitter for that, however.

Winner at Wolverhampton in February and back to form when second at Ripon last time. Likely to be on the premises.

Down to a handy mark and shaped as if better for the run when sixth at Kempton on return. Blinkers refitted and no surprise to see him go well.

Four wins from 15 runs in a very productive 2022. Poor start for the new campaign but might be more up to speed after a couple of runs.

Likeable type who made a solid return and can have his latest effort at Ripon excused. Others look better treated but he's likely to be back on his game.

10/1
Consistent sort who arrives on the back of a creditable run when third at Pontefract last time. Wide draw not ideal, but could get involved if things drop right.

Forecasts

Pisanello (3/1), What's The Story (6/1), Dutch Decoy (13/2), Shaladar (13/2), On A Session (7/1), Harswell Duke (7/1), Mostawaa (9/1), Ravenglass (10/1), Perseverants (12/1), Young Fire (20/1), Tilsitt (28/1), Yaaser (33/1), Cisco Disco (40/1), Poet's Dawn (80/1)

Verdict

A very tricky event in which the tentative choice goes to PISANELLO who usually runs his race and should have the circumstances to suit his patient style. On A Session and Shaladar are two of several others with feasible claims.
