Noble Behest (2/1), Volpone Jelois (7/2), Lost The Moon (4/1), Ayr Of Elegance (6/1), Sheila's Fancy (6/1), Night Generation (16/1), Jalingo (20/1)

Verdict

An open-looking heat where Volpone Jelois looks likely to prove very competitive again and this step up in trip should suit, while Noble Behest returns from a break to try to complete a four-timer and enters calculations under a further 5lb rise. Sheila's Fancy is interesting in receipt of weight from all comers after a good effort stepped up to this trip at Wolverhampton, while Night Generation has returned to a winning mark and could do better again. It is a big ask for Jalingo to return from 886 days off and win, but a market check is advised and preference is for LOST THE MOON, who is well in on her form from last winter and hinted at a resurgence in form last time.
  1. Lost The Moon
  2. Volpone Jelois
  3. Sheila's Fancy
