Gone close at this course on a number of occasions but is yet to win on a Tapeta surface. Suited by the trip and still potentially well treated but was never on terms during her last run at this course and now has a bit to prove.

C&D winner at the start of this month and also ran well when just edged out if things over C&D nine days ago; up another 2lb but still on a workable mark. Benefits from a handy enough draw and makes the shortlist once more.

Promising in three maidens last summer but was regressive on seasonal/handicap debut at Chepstow earlier this month. Possible he might have needed the run but does need to up his game considerably before he can be recommended with any confidence.

Form has been a mixed bag this season and comes here on the back of a below-par run at Yarmouth. Dropped 2lb but makes his Tapeta debut and has a bit too much to prove to forward as anything other than one to note.

Took a little time to get back into the swing of things after undergoing wind surgery in February but shapes as if his turn isn't too far away - put together a nice little sequence of solid efforts and may be more to come. Has been placed over C&D.

10/1
Won an apprentice handicap over C&D from a 2lb lower mark last November and kept very busy since. Can be slowly away but is in good heart just now, so has a feasible chance of at least making the frame if he doesn't leave himself too much to do.

An ex-Godolphin gelding who has struggled to make any sort of impact since stepping into handicaps. Raced once in a visor before but now tried in a hood and probably best watched on debut for a new yard.

Solid enough efforts recently but has been held by a couple of today's rivals and now has a bit to prove. Needs everything to go his way to figure.

Finished fifth behind Celtic Artisan over C&D earlier in the month (also adrift of Topology and Noneedtotellme in the same race). Return to this surface and drop in the weights may help. Could go well at fair odds. Worth a betting check.

Form has taken a dive this season and has dropped to a lowly rating as a result. Plenty to prove as his only previous experience of this course yielded very little. Probably safe to look elsewhere for the winner.

A few of these are old rivals and, while it may be a risky policy to expect an exact repeat performance from CELTIC ARTISAN, the gelding is still on a handy enough mark to suggest he can deliver again on these terms. Topology and Noneedtotellme are feared most but still have form to reverse with the selection, while the same can also be said of Amelia George, she does still have scope for improvement on the AW and would be dangerous to rule out too quickly.
