Verdict
Making his return from 4 months off, SHARTASH looked unlucky not to finish closer when third at Lingfield 2 weeks ago, left poorly placed, and he can build on his recent run to get back to winning ways. Rosario hasn't been beaten far in his 2 starts this year and could be the main danger, while Tiger Crusade also arrives in good form and completes the shortlist.

VerdictScored with a bit to spare at Wolverhampton in January and has run at least as well on his last 2 starts, only narrowly denied when second of 9 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 10/1) 16 days ago. Merits consideration.

VerdictRunner-up at this C&D on penultimate start but failed to build on that promise when seventh of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, 11/1) 2 weeks ago, albeit unsuited by way race developed given his hold-up style. Lurks on dangerous mark.

VerdictThree-time winner already this year, including twice over C&D. However, below form when seventh of 9 in handicap here (4/1) 3 weeks ago and this is a tougher contest in which to bounce back in.

VerdictSeventeen runs since last win in 2023 and ended last year on a low-key note. After 3 months off, probably needed the run when fifth of 9 in handicap (22/1) at Lingfield (6f) 2 weeks ago, but others still more persuasive.- Unnamed Favourite
