5/2
Shaped well from a poor draw at Chester on his penultimate outing and built on that promise to land a 12-runner handicap (7/1) at Epsom (8.5f, good to firm) 9 days ago. That effort represented a career best and he's a leading player again from only 2 lb higher.

14/1
Useful sort for Donnacha O'Brien in 2021 (fourth in Cambridgeshire at Newmarket that season) and shaped as if needing the run on return from over a year off in April. Mark is workable if retaining his ability and this run will reveal more.

3/1
Ended 2022 in fine form and picked up where he left off this year with a pair of victories at Redcar and Pontefract. Ran at least as well in defeat when second in 15-runner handicap at Thirsk (7f, good) 22 days ago and there's no reason he can't continue to progress.

9/2
Lost his way after winning at York's Dante meeting last season but has returned in good heart this campaign, again running creditably to finish third in that corresponding event this time around. Place claims are strong again from same mark,

6/1
Good second at Ayr early last month and shaped as if still in form when fourth of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, good to firm) last weekend, just unable to reel in a group of prominently-ridden rivals. Not discounted.

5/1
Has proved a different proposition since leaving Ben Haslam, winning at Pontefract and at this course (8.5f) before bringing up the hat-trick at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 29 days ago, finding extra. Quicker ground shouldn't be an issue and further progress is feasible.

22/1
Good second at Windsor (1m, heavy) in April before struggling in a tougher contest at Ascot on next start. Made move on disadvantaged part of track at Chester last time, so that run can be easily excused, but has work to do here all the same.

33/1
Produced a career best with a game victory under this claimer in 13-runner handicap (14/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 34 days ago. 5 lb rise demands more in this stronger contest, however.

Forecasts

Austrian Theory (5/2), The Cookstown Cafu (3/1), Maywake (9/2), On The River (5/1), Manigordo (6/1), Autumn Festival (10/1), Zozimus (14/1), Devasboy (22/1), Visibility (33/1)

Verdict

AUSTRIAN THEORY was seen to good effect under Joe Fanning at Epsom last week and shaped encouragingly enough at Chester on his previous outing to think that he should be capable of winning again after a slight rise in the weights. The Cookstown Cafu and On The River continue to progress and can't be ruled out, whilst Maywake arrives after several good placed efforts and is another to consider in a competitive affair.
