1.Mariner
J CandlishWarren Fentiman
11-4

Looks a sit-and-sprint race with little tempo engaged. MARINER winner of last two at Ripon and Doncaster, leading hope. L'EAGLE AID resumes after a spell of 34 weeks and finished three quarters of a length back from the leader last start at Ayr, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck. FAST FRED first-up after 11 week break and ran fourth last start at Southwell, outside hope. ENTHUSED did nothing to threaten last start at Ripon, consider in exotics.

3.Fast Track Harry
C G CoxFinley Marsh
6-5

Hard race to enthuse with so little exposed form. FAST TRACK HARRY resumes from a 29 week spell and finished nine lengths off the winner last start at Doncaster on a soft track, the testing material. ZUBARU first-up after 28 week break and placed at only start at Newmarket, not without each-way claims. TWILIGHT ICE first starter, place hope. GLAMOROUS ANGELA first start, strong place chance.

5.Call Me By My Name
James HortonA J Farragher
6-1

On pace runners will have an advantage as little speed engaged. CALL ME BY MY NAME placed at long odds last start at Chester and should run fitter for past attempts, big chance. WATEEN finished three quarters of a length back from the leader at only start at Ayr, not without each-way claims. BELIEVEINMENOW finished three quarters of a length back from the leader at only start at Thirsk and steps down to company at a non-metro level, sneaky chance. KAMAKAMELEON back from seven week let-up and ran sixth at only start at Doncaster, could threaten.

1.Pals Battalion
D O'MearaD Nolan
9-2

Can't imagine one of the top two not winning. PALS BATTALION finished half a length back from the leader last start at Thirsk and comes back to race in non-metro, marginal top pick. ROCK OPERA placed last start at Pontefract and should run fitter for past attempts, consider in exotics. TWILIGHT ROMANCE surprised punters to win at long odds last start at Leicester and racing back at non-metro class, for the exotics. GRESSINGTON decent form last prep with two wins from eight runs but ran 13th last start at Newcastle when resuming, outside hope.

5.Tawasol
S & E CrisfordJ Mitchell
11-4

Moderate tempo with little speed on paper. TAWASOL last start winner to break maiden at Brighton and should run fitter for past attempts, major contender. DOTHAN coming off a win to break maiden at Doncaster when resuming and has won here before, still in this. ALPHA MAGIC just missed at long odds last start at Doncaster when first up and has won or placed in both races so far, looks threatening. CAYMAN TAI placed when fresh and ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Newmarket on a soft track, in with a chance.

3.Queen Of Good News
P OwensCallum Rodriguez
15-2

Can't imagine one of the top two not winning. QUEEN OF GOOD NEWS amongst the placegetters last start running third at Doncaster and should run fitter for past attempts, has solid claims. PAY ATTENTION in the money last start running third at Windsor and should run fitter for past attempts, should be thereabouts. MINI MAC was a winner last start at long odds at Nottingham and two wins from 11 attempts this campaign, dangerous. DOVEY MOON finished half a length back from the leader last start at Southwell, looks threatening.

3.Cock And Bull
M L W BellCallum Shepherd
2-1

Expecting this to be a muddling run affair. COCK AND BULL won last start at Nottingham and should run fitter for past attempts, will take the power of beating. HAPTICS amongst the placegetters last start running third at Doncaster when resuming and generally strong second-up, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck. CLOCKMAKER back after 22 week break and placed last start at Southwell, include in exotics. RULER LEGEND let-up and placed when fresh, for the exotics.
