The presence of Whisper has over half the field out of the handicap and Nicky Henderson's admirable performer has plenty to prove returning from a 501-day absence. Double Treasure won easily at Fontwell at the end of last month and is respected back in handicap company over timber. Wait For Me is likely to be in the mix on his second at Sandown a fortnight ago, but the vote goes to NO HASSLE HOFF as he clearly benefited from wind surgery when filling the runner-up spot at Cheltenham last time and his rider's 7lb claim looks a big positive.
Placed in four of nine starts. Beaten 1 1/4l by Eden Rose when second of 11 at 9-4fav on his latest outing at Kempton over 2m last month.

This appears to be an ideal opportunity for Sharja Silk to finally gain his first career success having placed multiple times. That said, he doesn't convince with his attitude, his return in the Queen's Prize at Kempton underlining that concern, and he will need the pair of cheekpieces to make a difference. Despite having five lengths to find with Roger Varian's gelding, FIBONACCI, who was third in that aforementioned contest, could have more to come back on turf being a course winner for Hugo Palmer back in 2017, and the handicapper dropping him 2lb might also aid his cause. Jedhi was a winner over this distance on soft ground at Nottingham last October and completes the shortlist.
Preference is for SHARJA SILK, who pulled clear of the rest when chasing home a progressive, race-fit rival on return at Kempton. The son of Dubawi is proven on an easy surface and can deservedly open his account. Jedhi is just 1 lb higher than for her latest success at Nottingham in October and she is feared most. Royal Flag will also be a threat if able to get back on track.

A contest that tends to go to an unexposed individual and MISTER FISHER fits the bill. Nicky Henderson's gelding was unsuited by soft ground when down the field in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham, but this C&D winner at Grade 2 level appeals as having the most potential in the field and could make a mockery of his 145 rating. Christopher Wood and Sofia's Rock both have the potential to improve on what they have achieved so far, while a wind operation could do the trick for 2017 scorer John Constable.

EMBLAZONED made giant strides in a short space of time last season, going from a novice success at Yarmouth to place in Group 2 company over C&D 10 days later, and John Gosden's colt has significant potential to improve on just his sixth career outing. The son of Invincible Spirit went on to finish third in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot and the Newmarket handler is capable of readying one off an absence. Vintage Brut has proven his liking for cut in the ground, with a Listed success at York on soft ground being his best juvenile performance, and he warrants respect along with Laugh A Minute, who shaped as though the return to 6f would suit at Leicester last month.
EMBLAZONED finished a fine third in the Commonwealth Cup when last seen and while that wasn't a particularly strong race by Group 1 standards, he remains open to improvement and will prove hard to beat if conditions don't pose a problem. Laugh A Minute is a big danger and Vintage Brut, the sole 3-y-o in the line-up, also merits respect.
Winner of five races from 7f to 1m on good to firm and good to soft ground. Finished 3 1/2l behind Auenperle when fourth of 7 on his latest outing in the Group 3 Perth Group 3 Stakes at Saint-Cloud over 1m (good to soft) in October last year.

The step up to 7f should help Arbalet based on the best of his 2018 form, but he wouldn't have wanted this week's rainfall and that is a concern for his supporters. Newbury Listed winner Mankib won't mind the conditions and represents a trainer with a superb record here, but preference is for Andrew Balding's HAPPY POWER. A winner on soft at Newbury last month, the three-year-old receives an age allowance against older horses and looks like the one to side with given that his handler has already mentioned races such as the Group 3 Jersey Stakes if all goes to plan with him this season.
HAPPY POWER looked destined for better things when winning a Newbury handicap in good style last month, and he is taken to confirm that impression by taking this rise in class in his stride. French import Vanbrugh is a big threat on the back of his impressive display at Thirsk, while Safe Voyage, who is 2-2 here, and Suedois also need to be factored into calculations.
Successful at 7f and 1m on good to firm and good to soft ground. Finished 8l behind Private Secretary when fifth of 9 at 14-1 on his latest outing at Sandown over 1m 2f (good to firm) last month.

POLITICISE should have come on plenty for the run on ground that was probably quick enough for him at Musselburgh last month, and William Haggas' charge looks to have a leading shout now dropped in class on an easier surface. A mark of 85 appears one that he can win off and the three-year-old is fancied to account for Oasis Prince, who looks typically tough for Mark Johnston and arrives here chasing a third successive win. House Of Kings wears first-time blinkers and scored with plenty in hand when shedding the maiden tag at Leicester back in September, while Big Baby Bull is another to be interested in.
The one who appeals most is POLITICISE, who put in good work at the finish after being left poorly placed when third at Musselburgh last month. Likely to be sharper this time, he gets the nod ahead of fellow promising types House of Kings and Oasis Prince.

HUNTSMAN SON can be forgiven his effort at Cheltenham behind A Plus Tard when finding the ground far too soft for his liking. The handicapper dropped him 1lb for that effort and, back on a sounder surface, Alex Hales' gelding could take some stopping. Wilde Blue Yonder travelled well but didn't quite see out the extended 2m7f at Newbury in March and is respected off the same mark, while the hat-trick seeking Copper West completes the shortlist.
DIABLE DE SIVOLA is on a long losing run but he's been threatening to come good for some time so could be worth chancing again. Brave Eagle was progressive over fences early last season and is a likely threat on return, while the thriving Cap Du Nord also needs considering.

NORTHERN BEAU has been in terrific form in 2019 and only went up 2lb for her most recent success at Cheltenham. The step up in distance is no concern for Michael Scudamore's mare, having won over 2m4f at Leicester at the end of February, and she can prove too strong for Western Miller, second at Stratford on his latest start, and Gardefort, who was no match for a well-handicapped rival at Perth 16 days ago.
NORTHERN BEAU has stepped up over fences of late, scoring from 7 lb out of the handicap over shorter at Cheltenham last month, finding plenty to lead close home. The return to further will hold no fears and she looks sure to go well again. Western Miller returned to form at Stratford recently and he is feared most, ahead of Never Up and the low-mileage Ollie Vaar.
