20/1
Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, 6¾ lengths fifth of 6 to Duke of Oxford in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, weakening final 1f. Others arrive with more pressing claims.

Versatile 7-y-o who posted a creditable 1¼ lengths second of 5 to Cool Party in handicap (11/8) at this C&D 35 days ago, headed before final 1f and keeping on until last ½f. Not out of things from same mark.

11/4
Reliable stayer on all-weather who took this prize 12 months ago, enhancing his already impressive strike rate when winning 6-runner C&D handicap 3 weeks ago. Nudged up 2 lb and he's one of the likelier types again.

11/4
C&D winner. 3 wins from 6 runs this year. 1¼ lengths fourth of 6 to Duke of Oxford in handicap at this C&D (10/3) 21 days ago, not ideally placed. Clearly remains in very good heart and no surprise to see more prominent tactics re-employed here.

6/1
Useful, 3-time winner in France last year and ran his best race yet since switching to these shores when very good ½-length third of 6 to Duke of Oxford in handicap (17/2) at this C&D 21 days ago. Stronger gallop to aim at here will help and he's the type his yard do well with.

10/1
4¼ lengths third of 5 to Cool Party in handicap at this C&D (9/2) 35 days ago, outpaced early in straight before plugging on final 1f. First-time visor reached for now and he comes here operating 4 lb below last winning mark.

12/1
Versatile sort who landed a C&D handicap in June and, well handicapped on his exploits in this sphere, he resumed winning ways in 8-runner handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f) 26 days ago. Not discounted with his rider taking off a handy 3 lb.

C&D winner. 5/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 23 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Cheekpieces back on and return to this longer trip in his favour here.

Course winner. Latest win at Newcastle in October. Sixth of 7 in handicap (11/1) at Southwell (14.1f) 23 days ago, finding nothing off the bridle. Still unexposed at this sort of trip but his recent record has been patchy.

33/1
Latest win here (12f) in August. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (12f, 7/1) 42 days ago, that despite taking strong hold. Refitting of a hood can help returned to this longer trip but work to do operating from 9 lb out of the weights.

Forecasts

Duke Of Oxford (11/4), Cool Party (11/4), Tritonic (9/2), Sheradann (6/1), Zealandia (10/1), Zoran (12/1), Beamish (20/1), Red Flyer (25/1), Francesco Baracca (33/1), Simiyann (50/1), Damascus Steel (66/1)

Verdict

Last year's winner DUKE OF OXFORD enhanced his already impressive strike rate on all-weather when successful over C&D 3 weeks ago and a 2 lb rise for that success should see Michael Bell's 4-y-o highly competitive again. Cool Party, who was behind the selection latest, remains in good form and is feared. Sheradann and Tritonic are others fancied to be in the shake up.
