Fayez^p1²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Scott McCullagh| T: D O'Meara| OR: 86| D

25/1

Has won two of his last four AW races in this grade. Out of form on last three starts but claims if cheekpieces have desired effect.

Form: 433008

(5)

Bronze Angel^v⁶⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 9-10| J: Tyler Saunders⁽⁷⁾| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 85| D

25/1

Dual Cambridgeshire winner, but yet to really threaten to make the most of a falling mark and winless in 16 starts since scoring over this trip at Doncaster in September 2015. AW record 2-7 but latest run in this grade suggests he has a lot to do.

Form: 37-7948

(1)

Makaarim^b1¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: R Havlin| T: H Morrison| OR: 84

7/2

His last two runs in this grade have brought a win (off this mark) and a short-head second. Appeared to be coming to hand last time and in form trainer applies blinkers.

Form: 015-705

(7)

Glory Awaits^b²²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: William Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 82| CD

10/1

Dual C&D winner this year from marks of 80 and 82 so respected under a rider who is good value for his claim.

Form: 453197

(2)

Statuario^p1¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: David Egan| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 85| D

5/1

Scored by 5L in this grade on reappearance and highly tried since. Better treated now on AW debut but stable going through a quiet spell.

Form: 7-10038

(10)

Cainhoe Star¹⁵⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Ryan Tate| T: A Carson| OR: 79| C| D

25/1

Off the track since a sub-standard run in April. Closely matched with Glory Awaits on form here last winter but will need to be fully fit.

Form: 4-24320

(6)

Manthoor⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Watson⁽³⁾| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 84| BF

3/1

landed a modest Lingfield maiden on return and harshly raised 7lb for that effort. No surprise to see him beaten on handicap debut and trainer tries to offset the imbalance by booking top claimer.

Form: 2225-14

(8)

Samphire Coast^h,v¹⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: P Mathers| T: D Shaw| OR: 75| CD

20/1

Enjoyed a busy and successful winter when racing extensively here, including three C&D wins. May need the first run back from a break and remains on quite a high mark

Form: 511326

(3)

Algam^b⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Noel Garbutt⁽³⁾| T: L McJannet| OR: 79

25/1

Leicester winner for Richard Hannon in 2017, and not disgraced after an absence for new yard at Lingfield in July. Not progressed from that, however, and easy enough to oppose in current form.

Form: 24-4860

(4)

Global Art^b¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: L Morris| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 78| CD

3/1

Made the most of a drop in trip and grade to score over C&D. The form did not look strong and more to do here off higher mark in much stronger company.

Form: 355361

Forecasts

Manthoor (3/1), Global Art (3/1), Makaarim (7/2), Statuario (5/1), Glory Awaits (10/1), Samphire Coast (20/1), Fayez (25/1), Bronze Angel (25/1), Cainhoe Star (25/1), Algam (25/1)

Global Art arrives with fewer doubts than most about his wellbeing but he needs to progress considerably to defy a 7lb rise for beating a weaker field last time. Glory Awaits likes it here and Manthoor should be more competitive when allowing for his rider's allowance. However, MAKAARIM is taken to deliver for an in form yard. He has had little racing this season, but will be better for a recent pipe opener and has clear grounds to succeed given the strength of his Wolverhampton victory last year off an identical mark.
