14:10 Carlisle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Age
2 1st (2) (1/4 +88%) Bel Amigo	0.25 1/4(+88%)	(2) Bel Amigo 1/4, Fairly useful chaser in France. Showed much more than previously for current yard (following a wind operation) when taking 10-runner novice hurdle (18/1) over C&D (good to soft) 14 days ago. Likely contender. Won C&D novice a fortnight ago and he's the stand-out danger to Admiral Stewart.
7 2nd (7) (100/1 -203%) Kanitamay	100 100/1(-203%)	(7) Kanitamay 100/1, Out with the washing starting out in a bumper at Ayr in January and has failed to complete in both starts in this sphere. Looks one for handicaps down the line. Early days but she's shown very little on her two completed starts.
3 3rd (3) (5/1 +69%) Blazing Court	5 5/1(+69%)	(3) Blazing Court 5/1, Steadily progressive over fences for Martin Keighley last summer and posted creditable effort for new yard over the smaller obstacles at Ayr in November. More on plate back from 4 months off here, however. Won handicap chase at Worcester last August but needs others to underperform to land this.
4 4th (4) (25/1 +0%) Man Of Action	25 25/1(+0%)	(4) Man Of Action 25/1, Winless in 8 attempts on the level and is likely best watched on first try over hurdles. Failed to progress on the Flat (0-8) and tailed off in January on sole hurdle start.
5 5th (5) (15/2 +25%) Supreme George	7.5 15/2(+25%)	(5) Supreme George 15/2, Standout run in 4 attempts over timber came when second at Doncaster (16.6f) in November. Well below that level twice since but can't be ruled out in first-time hood. Runner-up at Doncaster in November but needs more here, and disappointing since.
6 \|PU\| (6) (150/1 -50%) Team Endeavour	150 150/1(-50%)	(6) Team Endeavour 150/1, Modest Flat winner for Ian Williams who has offered little in a couple of hurdles runs for current connections. Flat win came off basement mark and pulled up/tailed off on his two hurdle starts.

14:10 Carlisle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Having found only a subsequent Grade 2 winner too strong at Ayr in January, ADMIRAL STEWART is unlikely to bump into anything of that class here. Jamie Snowden's gelding is likely to take all of the beating if handling the undulations of this track and he's preferred to recent C&D winner Bel Amigo. The son of Jeu St Eloi boasts plenty of experience and another bold bid is forecast. Supreme George is the pick of the remainder.

ADMIRAL STEWART boasts the best form on show here and hails from a yard in fine form. He can return to winning ways. Bel Amigo and Supreme George look the obvious dangers.

Having bumped into a subsequent Grade 2 winner when second at Ayr in January, ADMIRAL STEWART can regain the winning thread today.

14:45 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 16f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Age
7 1st (7) (9/1 -64%) Raffles Wonder	9 9/1(-64%)	(7) Raffles Wonder 9/1, Free-going sort who won a handicap hurdle last March. Switched to fences this term, striking at third time of asking in 2-finisher event at Sedgefield (2m, soft) in January. That race fell apart but his lightly-raced profile provides the hope for better and his yard won this in 2021. Had wind op. Only two finishers when he won at Sedgefield but this unexposed 6yo is not discounted.
5 2nd (5) (9/1 +10%) Captain Ivan	9 9/1(+10%)	(5) Captain Ivan 9/1, Struck at the fourth time of asking for the Ewan Whillans yard when seeing off 4 rivals at Market Rasen (19f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Raised 5 lb but he retains handicapping scope on old form. 11yo who won at Market Rasen last month and remains well treated on old form back up 5lb.
1 3rd (1) (9/1 0%) Grain D'oudairies	9 9/1(0%)	(1) Grain D'oudairies 9/1, Scored at Market Rasen last March and gained reward for consistency when returning to winning ways at Doncaster (2m) in November. Took a heavy tumble at Wetherby next time and weakened into a below-par sixth at Musselburgh since. Disappointing at Musselburgh last time but capable of having a big say if back on song.
6 4th (6) (9/1 +18%) Heritier	9 9/1(+18%)	(6) Heritier 9/1, Back to winning ways in 19f handicap hurdle at Carlisle in December but the handicapper has been in charge since, his jumping once again lacking fluency when fifth of 7 over fences at Ayr 15 days ago. First-time cheekpieces need to have a positive effect. Second in this last year but well beaten the last twice; revival needed now in cheekpieces.
10 5th (10) (9/2 +31%) Fearless Action	4.5 9/2(+31%)	(10) Fearless Action 9/2, Ridden more patiently than is often the case when back to winning ways in 2m Sedgefield handicap (good to soft) 12 days ago. Respected up 6 lb. Inconsistent but won by 6l at Sedgefield recently and in the mix if backing that up.
2 6th (2) (10/3 +52%) Glory And Honour	3.333333 10/3(+52%)	(2) Glory And Honour 10/3, Versatile sort who resumed winning ways in chase at Newcastle in November. Back to best when second of 6 at Doncaster (2m, good) last month. Has cheekpieces he's won in on the Flat refitted for the first time in nearly 2 years. Second to course specialist at Doncaster last time and he's on the shortlist.
11 7th (11) (66/1 -100%) Sword Of Fate	66 66/1(-100%)	(11) Sword Of Fate 66/1, Scored over fences at Cartmel last summer but well below par when last seen in the autumn. Been off for 5 months. Won off 2lb higher last July but this 12yo has struggled subsequently.
8 8th (8) (11/2 +8%) Treaty Boy	5.5 11/2(+8%)	(8) Treaty Boy 11/2, Both chase wins over 2m at Catterick, the latter in February. Beaten at short odds but ran close to form when second of 4 back there 8 days later. Placed over this C&D in the autumn. Won at Catterick last month; 5l second of four there since; needs something extra today.
3 \|PU\| (3) (11/1 -38%) Carcaci Castle	11 11/1(-38%)	(3) Carcaci Castle 11/1, Bounced back to his best when winning a 6-runner handicap chase at Hexham (2m, good) last summer. Hasn't reproduced that form in 3 subsequent appearances but he is back on the Hexham win mark if staging a revival back from 12 weeks off. Won off this mark at Hexham last June but hasn't kicked on from that victory.
4 \|PU\| (4) (15/2 +38%) Five Dollar Fine	7.5 15/2(+38%)	(4) Five Dollar Fine 15/2, Made it 3 wins in 4 starts when seeing off 6 rivals over 2m at Carlisle in October but his run of good form came to an abrupt halt in November. Has been freshened up since. Below par on last two starts but return to Carlisle and the drop back in trip could help.

14:45 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Captain Ivan relished a step up in distance when scoring over 2m3f at Market Rasen last month and he's dangerous to discount in his current form. However, a 5lb higher mark and drop in trip may scupper the veteran's chances and preference is for RAFFLES WONDER. Rebecca Menzies' inmate has undergone a wind operation since his 10-length romp at Sedgefield in late January and he could make light work of a 6lb rise. Five Dollar Fine also warrants respect.

TOMMY COMBATS couldn't live with a very progressive sort at Ayr last time but it was another solid effort from Martin Todhunter's 6-y-o and he can come good tackling largely much more exposed opponents this time. One who is relatively lightly raced, at least over fences, is Raffles Wonder and he's second choice ahead of recent Sedgefield scorer Fearless Action.

The drop back in trip and return to Carlisle could both be positives for FIVE DOLLAR FINE, who goes well fresh, and he gets the nod.

15:20 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 24f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Age
4 1st (4) (5/1 +29%) Red Happy	5 5/1(+29%)	(4) Red Happy 5/1, Arrives on a hat-trick after wins at Musselburth and over C&D 14 days ago. Game sort who is a likely player despite a 3 lb weights rise. Two-time course winner who arrives on a hat-trick and is firmly in calculations.
5 2nd (5) (10/1 -54%) Busty Boy	10 10/1(-54%)	(5) Busty Boy 10/1, On a losing run but he posted his best effort of the season when second of 8 in handicap chase at Ayr (24.1f, heavy, 12/1) 27 days ago. Up 2 lb but he holds solid form claims. Often finishes second and beaten just a neck last time; may well be in the mix.
2 3rd (2) (14/1 -27%) Breakdance Kid	14 14/1(-27%)	(2) Breakdance Kid 14/1, Resumed winning ways at Kelso in November but below his best of late, only fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Catterick (25.2f, good to soft, 10/1) 26 days ago. More is needed. Two wins earlier this season but didn't shine on his two outings last month.
3 4th (3) (7/1 +22%) One More Stroke	7 7/1(+22%)	(3) One More Stroke 7/1, Got off the mark over fences at Musselburgh in February and backed it up with a good third of 7 in handicap chase (7/1) at Catterick (25.2f, good to soft) 26 days ago. In the mix. Novice who has done well since upped to staying trips and is in with a chance.
11 5th (11) (7/2 +53%) Emotional Roller	3.5 7/2(+53%)	(11) Emotional Roller 7/2, Gained his breakthrough win at Catterick in January and has continued in good nick, second of 8 in handicap chase at Wetherby (24.2f, heavy, 7/2) 25 days ago. Firmly in the picture with cheekpieces added. Runner-up to rejuvenated winner at Wetherby last time and may benefit from the cheekpieces.
12 6th (12) (11/1 -10%) Uptown Harry	11 11/1(-10%)	(12) Uptown Harry 11/1, C&D winner and got back on track in a change of headgear when fourth of 9 to Red Happy in handicap chase over C&D (good) 14 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Two-time course winner but this 11yo needs to build on his recent form to win today.
10 7th (10) (13/2 -8%) Jamesieconn	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(10) Jamesieconn 13/2, Made a successful start in this sphere at Doncaster in February but only fourth of 6 in handicap chase at Newcastle (23.4f, good) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces are reached for now. Won on chase/handicap debut last month; disappointing since but found to be coughing.
6 8th (6) (16/1 -60%) Monochromix	16 16/1(-60%)	(6) Monochromix 16/1, Still a maiden and he came in only fourth of 5 in handicap chase here (20.9f, good) 14 days ago. Needs to take a step forward. Disappointing here recently but ran well two starts ago; each-way shout if bouncing back.
9 9th (9) (15/2 +53%) Ribeye	7.5 15/2(+53%)	(9) Ribeye 15/2, Back to winning ways at Musselburgh in December. 6/1, fell 7th in handicap chase at Catterick (25.2f, good to soft) 51 days ago. One to consider if none the worse for his latest mishap. 10yo who has run well on his last two completed starts and could be involved.
15 10th (15) (33/1 +0%) Euchan Falls	33 33/1(+0%)	(15) Euchan Falls 33/1, Twenty runs since his last win in 2023 but he recorded a creditable second of 8 in handicap chase at Ayr (24.1f, heavy) 16 days ago. Very hard to make a case for from 13 lb out of the handicap however. Fair second at Ayr 16 days ago but tough task today from 13lb out of the handicap.
1 11th (1) (16/1 -14%) East Street	16 16/1(-14%)	(1) East Street 16/1, Completed his hat-trick at Haydock in December and not disgraced when fourth of 7 in handicap chase (14/1) at Catterick (25.2f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Raced lazily there so needs considering with blinkers back on. Posted hat-trick in November/December but has struggled to get competitive on last 4 runs.
8 \|PU\| (8) (16/1 -14%) Harjo	16 16/1(-14%)	(8) Harjo 16/1, Unreliable type who was pulled up in handicap chase at Newcastle (23.4f, good, 9/2) 20 days ago. Others appeal more. 25-1 win in January but lots of fences were omitted; pulled up at Newcastle since.
13 \|PU\| (13) (22/1 +21%) The Jad Factor	22 22/1(+21%)	(13) The Jad Factor 22/1, Opened his account at the fifth attempt over fences at Newcastle (2½m) in January. Pulled up at Ayr following month though so has a bit to prove here. Won at Newcastle in January but pulled up at Ayr since.
16 \|PU\| (16) (50/1 +24%) Wotsmyname	50 50/1(+24%)	(16) Wotsmyname 50/1, Remains a maiden after 21 runs though he came in a creditable fifth of 12 in handicap chase at Hexham (24.2f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Uphill task at these weights though. Maiden who is a long way out of the handicap today and is hard to fancy.

15:20 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 24f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

EMOTIONAL ROLLER lost little in defeat when bumping into a subsequent winner at Wetherby 25 days ago. The introduction of first-time cheekpieces could prove just the trick for the seven-year-old and a second career victory could be imminent. The biggest threat is the hat-trick seeking Red Happy, who boasts a recent C&D triumph, while Busty Boy and One More Stroke are other in-form chasers to consider.

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and this could go the way of hat-trick seeking RED HAPPY who showed a really good attitude when scoring over C&D a fortnight ago. Busty Boy is feared most on the back of a resurgent Ayr second, although Emotional Roller, Catch Catchfire and One More Stroke also need factoring in.

The first-time cheekpieces are a possible plus for EMOTIONAL ROLLER (nap) and last month's second at Wetherby has been boosted.

15:55 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 20f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Age
9 1st (9) (11/2 +27%) Hello Judge	5.5 11/2(+27%)	(9) Hello Judge 11/2, Successful 3 times over the larger obstacles last season and back to form in a race he won last year when making all over C&D last month. Excuses next time and not taken lightly. Won over C&D last month; pulled up here since when good ground reportedly didn't suit.
5 2nd (5) (16/1 -113%) Ganapathi	16 16/1(-113%)	(5) Ganapathi 16/1, Losing run stretches back to June 2022 but went very close to ending that at Musselburgh 5 weeks ago, looked in control soon after last before headed on the line. 4 lb higher in better race now. Usual tongue strap left off. Short-headed at Musselburgh last month and the first and third have both won since.
2 3rd (2) (10/3 +17%) Yealand	3.333333 10/3(+17%)	(2) Yealand 10/3, Twice a winner over hurdles last season and made a successful chase debut at Doncaster (20.5f) in December. Showed a good attitude when resuming winning ways at Newcastle last month and walked over at Haydock on Wednesday. Remains of interest. Beat a progressive runner-up at Newcastle last month and a 3lb rise could prove lenient.
11 4th (11) (9/2 +40%) Sean Og	4.5 9/2(+40%)	(11) Sean Og 9/2, Successful twice over fences at Cartmel (21f) last summer and looked as good as ever back from a break when scoring at Catterick last month. Respected up 5 lb. Returned from break with a win at Catterick last month and this stiff 2m4f should be fine.
7 5th (7) (11/2 +35%) High Moon	5.5 11/2(+35%)	(7) High Moon 11/2, Mixed record for the last 2 seasons but was in the process of running well in this headgear when falling 4 out at Wetherby last month. Considered off the same mark. Poor strike-rate over fences but bang there when falling four out at Wetherby last month.
6 6th (6) (12/1 -20%) Artic Row	12 12/1(-20%)	(6) Artic Row 12/1, Successful 3 times at Ayr last season. Failed to complete first 2 starts this autumn but back on track when placed at Newcastle/Ayr. Easy to forgive next run so not taken lightly. His four wins have come at Ayr but he's capable of running well elsewhere; not ruled out.
3 7th (3) (14/1 -75%) Half Shot	14 14/1(-75%)	(3) Half Shot 14/1, Perked up by application of blinkers as he capitalised on reduced mark at Kelso in September. Backed that up with good second at Wetherby and shaped as if still in form when third at Musselburgh on New Year's Day. Respected. 11yo who showed some good form in the autumn but hasn't been at his best the last twice.
12 8th (12) (12/1 +0%) Whoshotthesheriff	12 12/1(+0%)	(12) Whoshotthesheriff 12/1, Useful chaser in his prime. Lost his way for Phil Kirby though some promise for this yard, including over C&D last time (in process of running well in tongue strap when falling 2 out). Has work to do from out of the handicap here, however. 11yo who is on a long losing run, but was challenging when falling two out over C&D latest.
8 \|F\| (8) (5/1 +23%) Indian Louis	5 5/1(+23%)	(8) Indian Louis 5/1, Better chaser than hurdler and back on track when doubling his tally over fences at Perth (21f, soft) in September. Good second next 2 of 3 starts, 7½ lengths second of 11 to Hello Judge in handicap chase at this C&D latest. Bit more needed to resume winning ways. Runner-up over C&D on two of his last three starts and can produce another bold show.

15:55 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

YEALAND, who was the beneficiary of a walkover at Haydock on Wednesday, has a good chance of completing a hat-trick if he posts a similar display to the one that saw him justify favouritism off 3lb lower at Newcastle last month. Ganapathi and Half Shot have reasonable claims based on their peak form. However, a bigger danger might be the versatile Sean Og, who had plenty in hand when winning over 3m1f at Catterick latest.

Not the strongest of class 2s and improving novice YEALAND looks the way to go. High Moon remains of interest off his current mark so is next best ahead of the veteran Half Shot, who shaped much better than the bare result at Musselburgh on New Year's Day.

Having come clear with a fellow improver when winning at Newcastle last month, YEALAND still looks well treated now 3lb higher.

16:30 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 24f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Age
2 (2) (11/1 -22%) Cloudy Glen	11 11/1(-22%)	(2) Cloudy Glen 11/1, Goes well fresh and scored for the first time since 2021 when winning veterans' handicap at Haydock (25.6f) in December. However, he's run below form all 4 starts since, fitting of cheekpieces failing to spark a revival back at that venue 22 days ago. Mark is easing at least. Won on reappearance at Haydock in December but below best on his four starts since.
3 1st (3) (11/8 +31%) Credo	1.375 11/8(+31%)	(3) Credo 11/8, Useful handicapper at best and, with visor applied for first try in veterans' company, returned to winning ways at Exeter (24.2f) last month, jumping/travelling well. Respectable fourth from 7 lb higher mark at Newbury (26f) 3 weeks ago and she's respected as an in-form sort. Won at Exeter last month and solid fourth at Newbury since; key player.
4 2nd (4) (9/4 -20%) Dubai Days	2.25 9/4(-20%)	(4) Dubai Days 9/4, Course winner who ended last term in top form and picked up where he left off after 11 months off when taking 6-runner veterans' handicap at Haydock (19.9f) 5 weeks ago, showing a good attitude in the process. Not had many goes at this trip and respected up 3 lb. Defied an absence at Haydock last month and well worth another go at this sort of trip.
1 3rd (1) (11/4 -10%) Does He Know	2.75 11/4(-10%)	(1) Does He Know 11/4, Smart chaser who took last season's Grimthorpe Chase in first-time cheekpieces at Doncaster and best effort since when fourth in 3m handicap back at that venue in December. Disappointed when pulled up behind Credo at Exeter last month but no great surprise to see him bounce back. Pulled up last time but in good heart previously and leading claims if back on song.

16:30 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 24f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

DUBAI DAYS represents last year's winning yard and boasts the most convincing recent form with two wins from his last three starts. He could take full advantage of receiving weight all round, though this does represent a step up in class and it would be dangerous to underestimate Credo, who is a previous winner at this level. Does He Know and Cloudy Glen need to find more.

Having ended last season in fine fettle, DUBAI DAYS picked up where he left off and showed a willing attitude in the process when making a winning return to action at Haydock 5 weeks ago. He looks a sound player again for the stable that took this 12 months ago, despite some reservations about the trip. Credo and Does He Know rate next best.

Topweight DOES HE KNOW was uncharacteristically disappointing last time but holds strong claims on his form in late 2024.

17:05 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 17f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Age
4 1st (4) (11/2 +31%) Powerofjet	5.5 11/2(+31%)	(4) Powerofjet 11/2, Attracted support and ran better than on handicap debut when third at Sedgefield (19.8f, good to soft) on Boxing Day but followed that up with a disappointing effort when finishing down the field at Ayr (2m) the following month. Inconsistent but handicapper has given him a chance, if on a going day. Dropped out rather tamely last time but his Sedgefield run on Boxing Day was a good effort.
5 2nd (5) (14/1 +30%) Tread Softly Now	14 14/1(+30%)	(5) Tread Softly Now 14/1, Showed much improved form in first-time cheekpieces when scoring decisively on handicap bow at Ayr (2m, soft) in January. However, she found things tougher off this mark in a stronger race next time. Drop back into a 0-100 handicap should help her cause. Comfortable winner on handicap debut but safely held since; tricky to predict.
2 3rd (2) (4/1 +20%) Follow Charlie	4 4/1(+20%)	(2) Follow Charlie 4/1, Dual winner at Ayr over 20.5f and ran creditably over that C&D when third of 10 in a handicap hurdle (8/1) at Ayr (20.4f, heavy) 16 days ago, having dropped back to his latest winning mark. Fairly-handicapped and claims if in the same form over this sharper test. Inconsistent this season but was placed 16 days ago and remains on a good mark.
1 4th (1) (5/1 -25%) Simply Red	5 5/1(-25%)	(1) Simply Red 5/1, All 4 career victories have come at Bangor for Donald McCain and having struggled on Flat/over hurdles for Mark Walford last year, ran best race for a while in an above average Catterick claimer earlier this month, having been well backed. Interesting if she can build on that. Arrested decline when third in a recent claimer but that form may not be reliable.
8 5th (8) (10/1 -43%) Balranald	10 10/1(-43%)	(8) Balranald 10/1, Landed a brace of 2m handicap wins in October, looking a strong stayer over this sort of trip. Held his form when hitting the frame in two subsequent starts and looks to have place claims again, although worth a market check following a 3-month absence. Fully exposed after 36 hurdle runs but ended 2024 in good form; could have a say.
3 6th (3) (13/2 +28%) Marty Mcfly	6.5 13/2(+28%)	(3) Marty Mcfly 13/2, Struck at second time of asking for Sandy Thomson in a Perth handicap in June but has been below-form over longer trips since, latest when well-held at Ayr (20.5f) in January. Has been given a break and isn't discounted down in distance only 2 lb above his latest winning mark. Has suffered some heavy defeats since win last spring; can't be supported with confidence.
9 7th (9) (22/1 -100%) Mullins Cross	22 22/1(-100%)	(9) Mullins Cross 22/1, Dual winner for John Joseph Halon, most recent in December 2023 but has struggled to replicate that form including on three starts for current yard, latest when disappointing over C&D 2 weeks ago. Bit to prove but one to keep an eye on in the betting now racing from a career-low handicap mark. Ran okay on second of three stable starts but well beaten here since.
6 8th (6) (8/1 +50%) Palm Beach	8 8/1(+50%)	(6) Palm Beach 8/1, Course winner is now 19 runs since his last win in 2022. Lost his way when posting a couple of disappointing efforts in September last year and fared no better on reappearance (racing from 9 lb out of the handicap) 2 weeks ago. Drops in grade but difficult to fancy. Runs this track well and is well handicapped, but far too inconsistent to rely upon.
7 9th (7) (18/5 +28%) Trafalgar Square	3.6 18/5(+28%)	(7) Trafalgar Square 18/5, Fair Flat maiden finished a creditable fourth of 8 in juvenile hurdle over C&D (good) in November but failed to reproduce that effort over same C&D when fitted with cheekpieces for handicap debut, well-held despite finished placed. No surprise to see him go well from 2 lb lower following a break. 0-6 over hurdles; not yet fully exposed but needs to learn to settle better.

17:05 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Follow Charlie is back on a winning mark and is noted given the drop in trip a possible source for improvement. Balranald is another to seriously consider, but it could be worth chancing that TRAFALGAR SQUARE can build on a handful of solid efforts since he switched codes and the four-year-old's younger/fresher legs could be a big advantage against these generally more exposed opponents.

Having been well backed when finishing a close third behind two class-droppers last time, SIMPLY RED can gain her first win for Brian Ellison in an ordinary looking 0-100 handicap. If ready to roll after a 4-month absence, Trafalgar Square has shown enough to suggest he's capable of winning a race of this nature, while Follow Charlie is respected following a creditable third over a longer trip earlier this month.

The tentative selection in this rather weak finale is POWEROFJET, who is of interest if judged on his penultimate run.
