13th	10 13th (10) (14/1 -87%) Ocean Club	14 14/1(-87%)	(10) Ocean Club 14/1, 22 Mar; 33,000 euros Persian Force colt; first foal of a mare who is from a fine middle-distance family; owner won this twice in last four years and he could contend. Stablemate of Blixen Force and by the same sire; worth monitoring in the market.
14th	14 14th (14) (22/1 +12%) The Kalonji Man	22 22/1(+12%)	(14) The Kalonji Man 22/1, Yard won this last year; 29 Jan; 10,000gns Belardo colt; half-brother to Desert Haven, very useful from 6f (as a 2yo) to 7f; dam smart at 6f as a 2yo; looks an unlikely winner on debut.

15th	13 15th (13) (14/1 +0%) Step To Glory	14 14/1(+0%)	(13) Step To Glory 14/1, 5 Feb; 15,000gns Cotai Glory colt; dam unraced half-sister to 5f Group 3 winner Hurricane Ivor; considered on debut with yard having won this in 2024. Fits the bill on pedigree and yard won this race two years ago; interesting.

LTO Selection:

Amo Racing and rising Ireland-based trainer Robson De Aguiar have two notable contenders in a bid to get the new Flat season off to a flyer. Blixen Force was well touted in the early betting for this race and must be taken seriously on that basis, while Ocean Club is a nicely-bred colt who could be a useful second string. However, preference is for A BEAR AFFAIR, who is suitably reared for speed and represents a yard responsible for two of the last four Brocklesby winners. Dance A Jig, Arrbob and Step To Glory are other appealing options.

A six-figure purchase as a yearling, BLIXEN FORCE looks the most interesting of these on paper, with Step To Glory second choice.

13:25 Curragh 6f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	10 1st (10) (8/1 +68%) Opalite	8 8/1(+68%)	(10) Opalite 8/1, £7,000 Zoustar filly whose dam was unraced; stable can get first time out winners in both codes but this a big ask. Zoustar filly, dam half-sister to Grade 3 US winner, market will reveal expectations.
2	11 2nd (11) (11/4 +31%) Slaney View	2.75 11/4(+31%)	(11) Slaney View 11/4, Good attitude, similar to debut 2 1/2l third in a maiden at Cork most recent run; returning from long layoff; debut form franked at top level; every chance. 5f promise early last year here and at Cork, repeat of debut effort may be enough.
3	6 3rd (6) (4/1 +67%) Focaccia	4 4/1(+67%)	(6) Focaccia 4/1, 68,000 euros Kodiac filly; half-sister to Big Leader, smart at 8f; dam fair at 10f placing on the AW; wide draw; stable can get them ready first time; of interest. Kodiac filly, half-sister to two winners, yard can ready one, worth a market check.
4	3 4th (3) (33/1 -175%) Amerilis	33 33/1(-175%)	(3) Amerilis 33/1, Did not build on the debut run having raced freely, made too much use of comfortably held in a maiden at Leopardstown last time; wide draw; lot to find. Mild promise over C&D on debut last May, not as good latest, may be one for h'caps.
5th	5 5th (5) (50/1 -79%) Espritroyale	50 50/1(-79%)	(5) Espritroyale 50/1, Green and blew the start, never threatened down the field in an auction race at Gowran Park most recent; significant improvement needed. Showed little for Sheila Lavery, soft ground an unknown, watch on stable debut.
6th	7 6th (7) (12/1 -50%) Little Sure Shot	12 12/1(-50%)	(7) Little Sure Shot 12/1, Struggled and gone backwards since debut effort down the field in a maiden at Naas most recent; blinkers first time; effective 7f on good; debut form franked at Group level, can bounce back. Hasn't built on debut promise, struggled on soft when last seen, blinkers on.
7th	4 7th (4) (16/5 -97%) Closely	3.2 16/5(-97%)	(4) Closely 16/5, Improved from debut for experience when fourth beaten 6l in a maiden at Cork latest; that form franked multiple times at Group level; top course jockey/trainer combination; returning from long layoff; wide draw; big chance. Better effort second time out at Cork, ground an unknown but has to be considered.
8th	8 8th (8) (16/1 +36%) Meriden	16 16/1(+36%)	(8) Meriden 16/1, 32,000gns breeze-up purchase by Bated Breath; half-sister to Mercury Day, smart at 8f; another half brother placed at Listed level in France; dam very smart at 7f; market best guide. Bated Breath filly, dam a Group placed 2yo winner, check the market.
9th	1 9th (1) (50/1 -52%) Aboveheronlysky	50 50/1(-52%)	(1) Aboveheronlysky 50/1, Needed race after long absence down the field in a maiden here most recent; placed on debut over just shy of 6f; retained ability to prove. Outran odds on debut, missed all of last year, moderate run on comeback, more needed.
10th	9 10th (9) (40/1 +20%) Ochtar Againn	40 40/1(+20%)	(9) Ochtar Againn 40/1, Green but kept on when penny dropped, showed minor promise on debut well beaten in a maiden here only start; lot to find. 50-1 and well beaten over C&D on debut last year, hard to fancy on that effort.
11th	12 11th (12) (4/1 +0%) Spring Is Here	4 4/1(+0%)	(12) Spring Is Here 4/1, Needed the run off a long break down the field in a maiden at Dundalk most recent; off a short-break; effective 5f, probably acts on yielding and good; can come on from reappearance run but retained ability to prove. Hasn't built on debut promise in three starts since, a bit to prove now.
12th	2 12th (2) (300/1 -200%) Deirdreanme	300 300/1(-200%)	(2) Deirdreanme 300/1, Yet to show any real signs of ability; tongue-tie first time; speed in pedigree; looks one for low grade handicaps at best. Last in both starts, tongue tie goes on, unlikely to be the answer here.

CLOSELY shaped with promise on her second start last summer, when fourth at Cork, and may be able to strike on her return. The No Nay Never filly didn't show much on her debut at Listowel but it was a much better performance 12 days later and the form of that race, won by Suzie Songs, has worked out well. Spring Is Here disappointed on her return at Dundalk but is capable of better than that showing. The Starspangledbanner filly kept good company last season, finishing fourth in Listed company on two occasions. Slaney View was sent off favourite for the opening juvenile race last season, which was won by subsequent Group 1 winner Power Blue. She's another to consider.

It might pay to side with SLANEY VIEW who shaped with promise on soft ground over 5f on debut here last year

Handicap newcomer and he's a player if he can build on his encouraging fifth at Ayr.
2	6 2nd (6) (9/4 +36%) Saccary	2.25 9/4(+36%)	(6) Saccary 9/4, Ran to form up in trip when second beaten 10l in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon latest; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts with cut; fair mark judged on French Flat form, needs to build on latest. 0-7 over hurdles but was a creditable second at Huntingdon latest; respected back in trip.
3	8 3rd (8) (50/1 -52%) Babychino	50 50/1(-52%)	(8) Babychino 50/1, Outpaced, never threatened well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Ludlow latest; all to prove having not shown any reliable form over hurdles. Has struggled at big prices in all four hurdle runs; needs improvement on handicap debut.
4	5 4th (5) (8/1 +20%) Laplander	8 8/1(+20%)	(5) Laplander 8/1, Never put into the race on final qualifying run comfortably held in a 4yo hurdle at Newbury last time; usually held up; effective 2m; looks one for handicaps and well treated on debut form; very interesting. 0-8 on Flat and well held in three hurdles runs this winter; now switches to a handicap.
5th	7 5th (7) (10/3 +5%) Son Of Tyran	3.333333 10/3(+5%)	(7) Son Of Tyran 10/3, Outpaced, disappointing handicap debut down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wincanton most recent; effective at 2m on good; from good yard but hard to make a case for. Unexposed 5yo and this is only his second handicap but he needs a transformation.
6th	2 6th (2) (16/1 -113%) Legendary Day	16 16/1(-113%)	(2) Legendary Day 16/1, Needed run down the field in a handicap at Kempton most recent; useful dual purpose performer at best; has dropped to workable mark; effective 2m; can get involved. On dangerous mark back over hurdles but he's been tailed off in his last two Flat runs.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (11/2 +45%) Garavogue	5.5 11/2(+45%)	(1) Garavogue 11/2, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Hereford latest where looked lazy; effective 2m on heavy, good to soft; type to do better handicapping but must bounce back. Pulled up on handicap debut at Hereford but he has shown promise and it's still early days.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (17/2 -386%) Fond Farewell	8.5 17/2(-386%)	(4) Fond Farewell 17/2, Yard won this last year; unseated in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon latest when looked a huge threat; effective 2m, acts on good; Flat winner is well treated off unchanged mark, could make amends. Unexposed hurdler who was going well when he unseated two out on his comeback; respected.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

FOND FAREWELL was still in first gear when he unseated his rider two out at Huntingdon and appears to have been found a good opportunity to atone for that mishap. That was his first run with a tongue-tie added and he would surely have been thereabouts had he not stumbled on landing. Saccary posted his best effort yet over hurdles last time out and is another to seriously consider. The class-dropping Laplander and Legendary Day complete the shortlist.

Preference is for FOND FAREWELL who was travelling smoothly when he unseated two out on his Huntingdon comeback 17 days ago.

Having finished third at Southwell recently, Eminency warrants respect off his current mark. I'm Workin On It landed a C&D double before being beaten over a longer trip and should acquit himself well, but a chance is taken on the returning GOLDEN REDEMPTION. Andrew Balding's colt just missed out over this distance at Newbury last term and is fancied to make a bold bid off only 2lb higher, with his yard remaining in fine form.

Plenty of possibles in an open race. AL ARBEED's fourth last October is solid form and he remains open to further progress.

Fairly useful but failed to settle at 2m4f when pulled up at Newbury latest; hard to beat.

WATAMU failed to fire in a valuable handicap at Newbury a week ago, but the five-year-old's previous form suggests that she could be hard to beat in a race of this nature. Alibey showed some improvement when fifth at Huntingdon and any further progress would have her in the mix, while Siorai should not be written off having found 2m4f too far on her hurdling bow.

Emma Lavelle's WATAMU wasn't at her best at Newbury last time and is taken to bounce back quickly in this far less exacting company.

Tough and consistent in handicaps; this Listed race demands more but he's not ruled out.
2	7 2nd (7) (6/1 +0%) Jasour	6 6/1(+0%)	(7) Jasour 6/1, Best run of the season beaten 3l in July Cup (Group 1) at Newmarket (July) last time; returning from long layoff; ideally wants 6f on a sound surface; fitness taken on trust but has class to go well. Not the easiest of rides but smart on his day; last seen in Group 1 July Cup; interesting.
3	5 3rd (5) (25/1 +24%) Caburn	25 25/1(+24%)	(5) Caburn 25/1, Lacked pace and might have needed run when beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Southwell last time; trainer in form; off a short-break; effective 6f on sound surface; bit to find up in grade. Last year's win came in Yarmouth handicap; looks up against it in this higher grade.

Lightly raced in recent years and returns from 419 days off; chance if ready to roll.

Last year's winner SPYCATCHER has got better with age and although he picks up a 5lb penalty for winning a Group 3 in France, he could be up to the task given he carried the same burden when he won the Wentworth over C&D when last seen. Montassib, who won this in 2024, could only manage fifth in that race and may again find the Karl Burke-trained gelding to be his nemesis. My Mate Alfie is a notable alternative on debut for David O'Meara, while Jasour drops in class and is dangerous to ignore.

James's Delight has plenty in his favour but stablemate JASOUR takes a drop in class and makes even more appeal.

DMANIAC was impressive on his return to action here 13 days ago and can defy a 7lb hike. The Washington DC gelding travelled really well when scoring by a cosy three-and-a-quarter lengths in similarly testing conditions and the drop back in trip doesn't look like a concern. The four-year-old is progressive and loves the mud. Stag Night was third behind the selection last time and is entitled to get a bit closer now on revised terms. Smoke Them Out was also a winner here on the opening day and has to be respected. He went up 4lb but only has 3lb claimed off his back this time as opposed to 7lb last time.

Dmaniac should go well again but he's now 8lb worse off with STAG NIGHT and he is taken to reverse that form dropped back to 5f

Inishcorker has been reliable but expensive to follow lately and his tendency to find one too good is enough cause to consider looking elsewhere for the winner. SOLID PERFORMER could be the one to hold sway after appearing to have the race at his mercy when he fell at Catterick last time. He was clear of the field when he came down and looks well placed to bounce straight back in this company. The unexposed Limerick Star also merits a betting check.

This looks a good opening for form horse INISHCORKER, even though Solid Performer appeared all set to win last time before falling.

BELGRAVIAN returns to 2m with solid claims on his reappearance. The son of Make Believe rattled up an impressive hat-trick last summer and there looks plenty more to come from the four-year-old this term. Brasil Power finished upsides Anniversary (fifth) when fourth over this trip at Lingfield last month and has subsequently scored over 1m6f. There is little between that pair, while Blindedbythelights is no forlorn hope on his reappearance.

Blindedbythelights and Belgravian should be all set to figure prominently but TROJAN STORM catches the eye at this trip.

With all of these having questions to answer, only a minor preference is for JUNKER D'ALLIER. A useful novice hurdler last season, the seven-year-old has disappointed on his last couple of starts but the application of first-time cheekpieces may spark a revival. Hecouldbetheone may benefit from a return to hurdling and should not be discounted at this level, while similar comments apply to Embittered. Hara Kiri, a stablemate of the selection, is also considered.

Olly Murphy's HARA KIRI, who reportedly finished lame at Uttoxeter having shaped well when third at Wetherby, looks the way to go here

Not one favourite has obliged in this over the last 10 years, which doesn't bode particularly well for Mezcala, who was the subject of good early support at declaration time. Jack Channon's four-year-old is unexposed and may well have sufficient ability to buck the trend but there are some very wily characters amassed and preference is for DESPERATE DAN, who was last seen registering a gutsy victory over C&D in October. Lir Speciale also enters the equation having won a brace of 7f events here last autumn. Carron, Pressure's On and Classic Encounter all have each-way prospects.

Low-mileage 4yo MEZCALA may well resume his progress back at 1m and is first choice ahead of Desperate Dan.

There could be more to come from NANCEE SPAIN this season. The Calyx filly really blossomed on her final start last term, after some promising efforts, when scoring by a wide margin at Roscommon. She looked like a strong galloper in testing conditions that day and the big track here should play to her strengths. Neptunes Staircase was also an impressive winner at Roscommon on his last start but that did come back in July 2024. Ger Lyons is sure to have him fairly fit for his return though and he's respected. Factual Fact was narrowly denied in a maiden here last November, by a smart mare in Switch From Diesel, and he is another for the shortlist.

The well-handicapped ARCH ENEMY ran a nice race over 1m here 13 days ago and this trip is much more suitable

No No Fizz justified good market support when she won at Huntingdon and would have to be of interest off a 4lb higher mark. However, BLUE MARVEL gets weight all round and this could be her time to shine after posting her best effort yet last time out. The Stuart Edmunds-trained mare debuts in handicap company from a very workable rating and there is a lot to like. Mermaids Cave and Looking As You Are complete the shortlist.

The vote goes to NO NO FIZZ who made it 2-5 under Tom Broughton when landing a gamble in a similar race at Huntingdon two weeks ago.

EL BURHAN made a successful reappearance last term and looks to repeat the dose. A convincing winner at Ayr in September, a 6lb rise may not be enough to anchor George Boughey's charge with further progress expected. Respond represents last year's winning yard and arrives with solid claims having landed the odds at Chelmsford with the minimum of fuss. He should be thereabouts, despite an 8lb hike, while the unexposed Gamrai could prove competitive on his return to the fray.

Gamrai, Respond and El Burhan are shortlisted but preference is for WHITCOMBE ROCKSTAR who goes so well at this track.

LUNAR DISCOVERY had plenty in hand when scoring over an extended 2m3f at Chepstow during the Christmas period. Given that the second, third and fourth have all won since, Robbie Llewellyn's mare is hard to oppose off just a 7lb higher mark. Tapley is likely to be in the mix once again, while Classic King will find this easier than the Pertemps Final he contested a couple of weeks ago.

Robbie Llewellyn's LUNAR DISCOVERY gets a confident vote to make light of a 7lb rise for her Chepstow win, which is very strong form.

DOCKLANDS has been presented with a fine opportunity to get his head in front for the first time since landing the Queen Anne at Royal Ascot. The six-year-old wasn't disgraced on a number of occasions, including when fourth in the QEII back at his favourite track, and he escapes any penalties due to the conditions of the race. Similar comments apply to shock Sussex winner Qirat, who was last seen at the Breeders' Cup, while Volterra appeals most of the remainder.

Proven Group 1 performer DOCKLANDS will be tough to beat if anywhere close to the top of his game on this reappearance.

All eyes will be on ALBERT EINSTEIN as he makes a surprise appearance in preparation for the 2000 Guineas. Aidan O'Brien hasn't been shy about how highly he rates the Wootton Bassett colt, who won both starts early last season. He faces a stiff enough task against some talented older horses but if he's the star they think he is in Ballydoyle, he should come through this test. English raider Ten Bob Tony sets the standard with his official rating of 112. He was placed in Group 1 company over this trip in France last October and is a big player on that form. Princess Child, a Group 3 winner last year, handles cut and is another who is respected.

The highly-regarded ALBERT EINSTEIN is from the family of Giant's Causeway who won this race in 2000. He can justify a tall reputation

DAYTIME DREAMING was a beaten favourite on his chasing bow but the son of Malinas hasn't looked back since, winning at Southwell before going on to follow up at Newbury. The six-year-old ought to cope with a further 5lb rise and a return to further, but Stratford victor As Legends Have It doesn't lack for stamina and looks best placed to capitalise should the selection falter. Caughtinyourtrance heads the remainder.

The vote goes to DAYTIME DREAMING (nap) who made it 2-3 over fences at Newbury and is open to more progress back up in trip.

Survie made the frame in a Group 1 at Riyadh last month and is sure to be popular on the back of that effort, but CATHEDRAL is preferred. The daughter of Too Darn Hot has yet to add to her debut success but she's posted a number of creditable efforts since, namely in the Coronation Stakes and the Filly & Mare Turf at the Breeders' Cup. Her sole win came on Polytrack so, eased in grade for her return, she might be too strong. Others to note include Pina Sonata and the progressive All Moonshine.

Survie and CATHEDRAL (nap) are well clear on the ratings. Of the two, the selection may prove better suited by today's trip.

PEACE IN THE PARK took a big step forward when second at Huntingdon on his handicap debut. The six-year-old looks to be on a workable mark on that evidence and could launch a strong challenge with Finn Lambert's 3lb allowance further helping his cause. Plumpton runner-up Lord Of The Glance has been threatening to open his account, while Pottersjetamay was third at Huntingdon and could make the frame again.

This looks a good opportunity for Harriet Dickin's DARING TO DREAM to build on earlier promise, now handicapping, and get off the mark

Harry Eustace hasn't hidden his confidence in LA BOTTE, with the Newmarket handler stating earlier in the week this would probably be the last time he is seen in handicap company before aiming higher. A desperately unlucky loser in the Britannia at Royal Ascot, he made a pleasing reintroduction when fourth in the Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton and that outing should bring him on nicely. Eternal Force represents a yard that has won this contest five times, most notably with Addeybb in 2018 and last year with Godwinson, and he arrives in search of a four-timer after impressing at Haydock on his final appearance last term. Rogue Diplomat ended last season winning four on the bounce, including a brace of 7f handicaps here in the autumn, and he enters calculations along with Botanical, who makes his first start for Karl Burke, and Anno Domini, with Charlie Appleby opting to utilise Toby Moore's 7lb claim.

William Haggas has an excellent record in the Lincoln and can post win number six with ETERNAL FORCE (nap). Botanical is feared.

1	4 1st (4) (3/1 +25%) Lewis Carroll	3 3/1(+25%)	(4) Lewis Carroll 3/1, Fair debut beaten 8 1/4l in a maiden here on debut; that strong form; top course jockey/trainer combination; returning from long layoff; open to marked improvement. Stable outsider of three over 6f here on only juvenile start, likely to be competitive now.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/1 -13%) Spacebound	9 9/1(-13%)	(1) Spacebound 9/1, Very promising debut runner-up beaten 6l in a maiden at Dundalk only start; off a short-break; effective 7f, acts on AW; debut form franked, could progress. Good debut effort in an older-horses maiden at Dundalk, this is more demanding.
3	10 3rd (10) (7/2 +30%) Zenford	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(10) Zenford 7/2, Ran very well on debut despite being slow away from stalls third beaten a length in a maiden at Leopardstown debut; in the mix with significant improvement likely. Ran a bit green when third at Leopardstown on only start at two, potential for improvement.
4	5 4th (5) (9/4 +44%) Listentodwindblow	2.25 9/4(+44%)	(5) Listentodwindblow 9/4, Yard won this last year; probably outclassed in the end beaten 7l in Eyrefield Stakes (Group 3) at Leopardstown last time; tongue-tie first time; effective 6-7f, acts with cut; in form but doesn't look up to Group level; sets a clear standard here. First time in a maiden for this 95-rated colt, holds an obvious chance, tongue-tie on.
5th	8 5th (8) (8/1 +50%) Templenoe	8 8/1(+50%)	(8) Templenoe 8/1, Ran to form just tiring late on up in trip back from break comfortably held in a maiden here last time; effective 7-8f, acts on heavy; latest form looks strong, should improve for the outing. Fair sixth of 23 over 1m here at the season's opening fixture, could be in the mix now.
6th	11 6th (11) (80/1 -60%) Billy Jean	80 80/1(-60%)	(11) Billy Jean 80/1, Never travelled on poor debut well beaten in a 3yo race at Dundalk only start; speedily-bred; all to prove. Beaten 15l when last of five at Dundalk on recent debut, seems safe to rule out.
7th	6 7th (6) (9/2 -50%) Loch Gamhna	4.5 9/2(-50%)	(6) Loch Gamhna 9/2, Built nicely on debut and outrun odds here 2 1/4l third in a maiden here most recent run; likely wants further than 7f in time judged on breeding but threat if getting decent test. Promising third over C&D last October, the winner and second have franked the form.
8th	7 8th (7) (40/1 +20%) Mr Perth	40 40/1(+20%)	(7) Mr Perth 40/1, Gelding by top-class middle-distance performer Australia; dam very smart miler Miss Myers; probably effective 7f; up against it. Gelding by Australia, first foal out of a winning Zoffany mare, likely to need experience.
9th	3 9th (3) (250/1 -150%) Akissfromarose	250 250/1(-150%)	(3) Akissfromarose 250/1, Yet to show any real signs of ability; probably wants 1m; may improve when upped in trip but yet to show anything. Two AW runs, flopped when apparently well fancied on debut, in rear at 100-1 on second run.
10th	2 10th (2) (33/1 -371%) Thisistheway	33 33/1(-371%)	(2) Thisistheway 33/1, Improved down in trip, well placed in race dominated from front when second beaten 3 1/2l in Neville Hotels Premier Handicap Hurdle (Listed) at Leopardstown latest; off a short-break; effective 2-2 1/2m over hurdles where progressive; more to come on Flat but likely to find this trip too sharp. Useful hurdler, won at last year's Punchestown festival, runs over an inadequate trip here.
11th	13 11th (13) (250/1 -279%) Hiltons Pass	250 250/1(-279%)	(13) Hiltons Pass 250/1, Probably needed the experience and got outpaced well beaten in a maiden here only start; likely to want 8-10f; should improve. 66-1 when finishing towards the back over 6f here on the opening day, unlikely to feature.
12th	12 12th (12) (80/1 -60%) Darwin's Angel	80 80/1(-60%)	(12) Darwin's Angel 80/1, May not have stayed down the field in a nursery at Dundalk most recent; returning from a break; effective 7f on good; inconsistent. Twice finished fourth at a modest level last year, no appeal in a maiden at this venue.
13th	9 13th (9) (200/1 -300%) The Wee Man	200 200/1(-300%)	(9) The Wee Man 200/1, Probably needed the run down the field in a maiden here most recent; middle-distance bred; yet to show any worthwhile form. Will need to qualify for a handicap on the evidence of his first two outings.

Joseph O'Brien, who has made a flying start to the new turf season, can land this with LISTENTODWINDBLOW. A promising fourth on his debut at Cork, the Wootton Bassett colt was then far from disgraced when finishing mid-division in two strongly-contested sales races. Again, there was enough to take from his final outing when sixth in a Group 3 at Leopardstown to suggest he should be winning his maiden. Third on his sole start as a juvenile, the Johnny Murtagh-trained Zenford is entitled to be all the better for that initial experience. Spacebound, who shaped with promise on his introduction at Dundalk in January, is another with claims.

With the benefit of experience in sales races and in a Group 3 event, LISTENTODWINDBLOW (Nap) has a good opportunity

BANK ON FRANK forced a dead-heat for second on his chasing debut but there was no doubt at Southwell next time, where he came clear to record a commanding success. That triumph might in part have been down to a step up to three miles so, despite a hefty 10lb rise, there should be plenty more to come. The Long Point seeks a hat-trick following wins at Doncaster and Wincanton. He remains open to further improvement over the larger obstacles too and is well worth considering, along with Taita Hills.

Largy Force and Bank On Frank are strongly respected but the vote goes to Emma Lavelle's hat-trick seeker THE LONG POINT.

Spinning Lizzie and Eskimo Pie produced a useful level of form in their two-year-old seasons and are of clear interest on these terms but, even so, ELLUSIVE BUTTERFLY might come out on top. Karl Burke's filly returned to break her maiden tag in comfortable fashion at Southwell in January and despite what her pedigree might suggest, she could be even better over the mile.

Wolverhampton novice winner TRYST is a likeable prospect and is taken to make a winning return to action.

Second over 2m3f at Chepstow, HARBOUR LIGHT built on that promising effort over C&D last time and scored with plenty left in the tank.There is likely to be more to come from the five-year-old now he's off the mark and he looks one to keep on the right side of. Churchman is more exposed than the selection but posted a much better effort when runner-up at Hereford, while Pooroldmackley could prove pick of the rest.

Topweight HARBOUR LIGHT stands out, having won in good style over C&D last time and with today's opposition looking decidedly ropey.

High Storm sets the standard with an official rating of 80 and improved for going up in trip when chasing home a well-bred Godolphin newcomer at Southwell last month. That said, it wouldn't be a massive surprise if a less-exposed rival in the shape of TURTY TREE came out on top. The son of New Bay made a promising start when runner-up over a mile at Newmarket, shaping as though a step up in distance would suit, and his stable couldn't be in better form. Valenday ran with plenty of credit on both starts at York, despite not looking the most straightforward, while Super Crown and Marasi Bay are newcomers of significant interest.

Newmarket eyecatcher TURTY TREE looks a winner in waiting, while Super Crown is a very interesting newcomer.

A C&D winner last November, the Ciaran Murphy-trained TITANIUM can add to that success. The seven-year-old Zarak gelding again showed his liking for this track when an encouraging sixth of 25 in the Irish Lincolnshire. Dropped 2lb, he should have come on in terms of fitness and is entitled to be one of the leading contenders. Charming Whisper is of definite interest if the ground dries out. A five-time winner on turf, the son of Charm Spirit caught the eye at Dundalk on his most recent start and should appreciate returning to this surface. Perry Mason is another who should be all the sharper for a recent run.

TITANIUM shaped nicely enough in the Lincolnshire here 13 days ago and he gets a tentative vote in this easier race

LIBRE DE CHOEUR remains relatively unexposed over hurdles and wasn't without his supporters when he broke through at Ffos Las. A 5lb rise seems fair given he was always in control of that race, and it would come as no surprise were he to kick on now and rack up a sequence. Oh My Johnny showed a bit more at Warwick most recently and joins Goodwin on the shortlist.

Top of the list is the lightly raced LIBRE DE CHOEUR who won at Ffos Las last month and is open to more progress in staying handicaps.

Top-class performers Notable Speech, Mostahdaf and Maljoom have won this in recent years and KING'S TRAIL can add his name to the roll of honour. Charlie Appleby's colt created a big impression when winning easily on debut over C&D in December and the 2000 Guineas/Derby entry can take this race on his way to bigger targets. Archer Royal's third in the Group 3 Tattersalls Stakes at Newmarket arguably sets the standard, but he was subsequently disappointing in the Autumn Stakes. Sin City has a similar profile to the selection and should not be discounted, while Sunset On Leros and Rochfortbridge complete the shortlist.

Sunset On Leros should go well upped to 1m but KING'S TRAIL looked a colt of significant potential when winning here on debut.

GOTTHEREINTHEEND impressed when making all at Market Rasen's Christmas fixture and bounced back from a below-par run at the same venue when she scored decisively at Fakenham most recently.

MAO SHANG WONG got off the mark in impressive fashion over this trip at Newcastle earlier in the month and the unexposed four-year-old may be able to defy a 5lb rise. Bownder was narrowly denied at Lingfield most recently and is an obvious threat, while Up The Jazz is another with good recent all-weather form to his name and has to be noted. Any market support for Glint Of Light would be interesting.

If Conor Whiteley can get MAO SHANG WONG to settle as well Danny Tudhope managed to at Newcastle last week a 5lb rise may not stop him.

With an official rating of 102, the Donnacha O'Brien-trained SHAIHAAN can open his account. Seventh on debut here in July, the Night Of Thunder colt stepped forward to finish runner-up to a subsequent Group 1 winner at Dundalk next time. Fourth in a Group 2 back at this track on his final juvenile start, he can hit the ground running this term. An impeccably bred colt, the Aidan O'Brien-trained newcomer George Stubbs commands maximum respect. Stablemate King Of Sparta, who showed promise in two runs last season, cannot be ruled out in first-time cheekpieces.

An official rating of 102 implies that SHAIHANN should have no trouble winning a maiden, providing he handles the ground

When the penny dropped for MOORE BRION close home at Market Rasen, Olly Murphy's charge left a striking impression to win going away. It takes a good horse to win a bumper under a penalty but he will have gone into plenty of notebooks and could be exactly that. Baron Du Brizais won a point-to-point well in November and debuts under Rules with every chance, while Cowboy Casanova showed promise at Newcastle and Seven Airs made a promising enough start in what looked a good Kempton race.

An interesting race in which the vote goes to COWBOY CASANOVA who chased home a useful rival in a big field at Newcastle in January.

With no shortage of early pace on show, it might be wise to side with the Paul Midgley-trained HERAKLES. The six-year-old returned to finish a creditable fourth over C&D earlier this month and given how this could unfold, it would come as no surprise were he to take a step forward. Westgate Warrior and Irish Dancer are likely to vie for supremacy, as might the likes of Street Life and Colors Of Freedom, which could in turn give a chance to 6f specialist Woodhay Whisper.

Top of the list is ANCIENT STATE whose 5f record is 2-2 and whose new trainer Adam Kirby has made a promising start.

In a wide-open event, marginal preference is for FAST TRACK HARRY. Clive Cox's gelding arrives here on the back of two victories in competitive contests at Lingfield and Newcastle in recent weeks and a 4lb rise for the latest of those wins may not be enough to stop him. Durham Castle has a very good strike-rate and has to be noted on his return to action, while Knebworth is another hat-trick seeker to consider. The shortlist is completed by Wild Clary, City Cyclone and Stanley Spencer.

The thriving pair Knebworth and FAST TRACK HARRY may hold a fitness advantage over some interesting seasonal debutants.

MORNING MAYHEM readily boasts the most convincing recent form and is presented with a good chance of supplementing his Fakenham success off just 3lb higher. Telhimlisten has done well since rejoining Jennie Candlish and can be a thorn in the side of the selection on his return to action. The low-mileage Caliach Point is a potential improver to also bear in mind now he tries a first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces combination.

Nick Schofield's MORNING MAYHEM shaped as though this step back up in trip would suit when scoring last time so gets the vote here

HASHTAGNOTIONS showed promise when filling third place on the back of a short break at Newcastle last week. He could be hard to beat with the benefit of that outing and a first-time hood may also help his chances. Golspie was a place behind the selection that day and has to be of interest as a result. Others to note are Endless Whisper and Dancing Tiger.

Although THREE DONS failed to fire on the Flat in the autumn, his subsequent hurdle exploits suggest he retains his ability.

Weak form in turf maidens, no better on AW on handicap debut or over hurdles last time.

ROYAL IMPACT has leading claims if he can transfer his all-weather form to the turf. Off the mark on his handicap debut at Dundalk last time, the form of that race has been well advertised subsequently and he tops the shortlist. Runner-up over a mile here last time, Lough Leane should again make his presence felt. A six-time winner on the all-weather, the six-year-old has run some solid races on turf for his current trainer. God Knows is another that could get involved.

An each-way vote goes to EICHAN SAN who looked in need of further when running over 6f at Naas last Sunday.

Amelia's Joy and Rusheen Boy both arrive on the back of narrow wins and must be respected, while a few others have something to prove, but a chance is taken on KAMAWAY. Eve Johnson Houghton's Kameko filly displayed promise in novice/maiden company and was far from disgraced when fourth in behind a trio of three-year-olds over C&D. Pitched into handicaps from a potentially workable opening mark, she could find significant progress.

It's hard to get the shortlist down to a manageable number but AMELIA'S JOY just shades it from Gladiadora.

Revised mark looked to find him out when last seen but he won't mind going back up from 6f.

Last of ten on his comeback ten days ago; something to prove in first-time cheekpieces.

An open contest in which many have their chance, including Dagger Strike, who was touched off by Illy's Roo over C&D. KANISHKA wasn't too far away in third that day, though, and given that it was his seasonal reappearance, he's taken to reverse the form on the revised terms. Chelmsford winner Tamashal is another with high hopes and don't rule out The Resdev Scholar, who hasn't been seen since completing a hat-trick at Doncaster back in November.

Tamarshal is respected but THE RESDEV SCHOLAR finished last season on an upswing and can complete the four-timer.

AQPAN sets a decent standard based on his runner-up displays at Kempton in December and Roger Varian's colt is likely to prove hard to beat with that experience under his belt. Aura Champagne showed promise on her sole outing when third in a conditions event at Newbury. She looks the most obvious threat, while Ay Up Duck is an interesting newcomer being out of a German Listed winner.

With Aura Champagne a non-runner, this is an excellent opportunity for AQPAN. Clear Above might be best of the rest.

GOLDEN MUSE made a decent start to her career when third at Chelmsford before stepping forward to win comfortably at Wolverhampton, and the daughter of Golden Horn is expected to benefit from going even further in distance. La Tosca boasts a nice staying pedigree and has to be respected on her racecourse debut. Littlecote and Itsonlyrockandroll head the remainder.

This might go to LITTLECOTE, who could leave her sole 2yo performance well behind now tackling a longer trip.

A tricky contest on paper and BALQAA's recent victory at Wolverhampton might give her the edge. The eight-year-old hasn't tackled this trip yet in her career, but she might prove too strong if seeing it out. Regal Glory is capable of being in the mix after her third here a fortnight ago, while others for the shortlist include Shabu Shabu and Arranmore.

Off a very attractive mark back up in distance on only her second run for Ian Williams, SHIELAS WELL is particularly interesting.

JACK ANDREA won a classified stakes at Lingfield before proving that was no fluke when going back into handicap company and performing creditably for the silver medal at Chelmsford. David Probert takes over in the plate and everything points towards another bold showing.

In-form JACK ANDREA gets the vote, ahead of Highfield Comrade who returns to the scene of his January win.

1	1 (1) (11/1 -10%) Drumcondra	11 11/1(-10%)	(1) Drumcondra 11/1, Below form beaten 6l in a handicap at Nottingham last time; effective 8/9, acts on soft and good; needs to settle back from break. 0-9; faces some race-fit and in-form rivals on AW debut.
8	8 (8) (12/1 -33%) Back From Dubai	12 12/1(-33%)	(8) Back From Dubai 12/1, Ran to form down in trip beaten 1 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark here last time; off a short-break; effective 8-10f, acts on any; generally in form. 9yo course regular; fifth over C&D in January; should make usual bold bid from the front.
2	2 (2) (25/1 -56%) Finally Escaped	25 25/1(-56%)	(2) Finally Escaped 25/1, Keen but to previous level down in trip comfortably held in a novice at Newcastle last time; effective over 7-11f on AW; more to come now handicapping.

ROARING RALPH will likely prove popular in this handicap finale and is taken to send his supporters home smiling. He's become a bit of a course specialist and certainly wasn't winning out of turn last month, prior to setting up the hat-trick bid courtesy of another success here. He gets a confident vote ahead of Lingfield second Danehill Star and Back From Dubai.

Teggy Lasso (second choice) may still have untapped potential but ROARING RALPH is on a roll and can complete a hat-trick.
