28/1

C&D winner has been disappointing in the main since winning over 7f at Doncaster (good) in April. Races off a 1lb lower mark here and market support would be notable.

16/1

50/1

Beaten 1¾L when third in a 1m2f handicap at Ayr (good) in June last year. Returning from well over a year off the track when seventh over an extended 1m2f at Chester (good-to-soft) recently. Others make more appeal.

Forecasts

Spiorad (11/8), Al Erayg (3/1), Start Time (6/1), Saisons D'Or (10/1), Stringybark Creek (12/1), Donnelly's Rainbow (12/1), Zip (16/1), Confrontational (16/1), Elusive Heights (16/1), Algaffaal (16/1), Alfa McGuire (22/1), Florenza (28/1), Parole (50/1)

SPIORAD impressed in winning last time out on his first start since wind surgery and he can defy top weight to register a third win in his last four starts in this competitive looking handicap. The selection can get the better of Donnelly's Rainbow who receives weight from all of his rivals while third place can go to Al Erayg who finished runner-up on his most recent start.
