Only fifth of 6 in handicap (5/1) at Kempton (16f) 24 days ago. Back down in trip. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort.

Progressive sort who came in an excellent second of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (14f) 147 days ago. Expected to be bang there off the same mark for his in-form yard.

Winner at Catterick in October. Good second of 7 in handicap at Redcar (14f, soft, 8/15), conceding first run. Off 177 days but very much one to consider on his tapeta debut.

Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Karl Burke when last of 7 in handicap at this course (14.1f, 28/1) 27 days ago. Needs to take a big step forward.

Had a wind op before posting a respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at Chelmsford City (14f) 13 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up.

C&D winner who comes here on the back of a good second of 16 in handicap (40/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. Firmly in the picture.

WILLIAM WALTON took a step forward on his handicap debut when a clear second at Chelmsford in December and with his yard among the winners he can return in style here. Destinado is next on the list on the back of a good Lingfield second, while The Dancing Poet, King's Scholar and Tipsy Tiger can all have a say too in this competitive handicap.
