Below par well beaten in a handicap at Musselburgh latest; enjoys making it; may need the run; stays the trip; bit to prove off a break

It's interesting that Marioento steps markedly up in trip with cheekpieces applied for the first time, but CAPTAIN POTTER makes greater appeal on this occasion. Brian Ellison's charge wasn't at his best when returning to the level recently but that should have blown away the cobwebs, and he's 1lb lower than that performance. Ebony Maw is most appealing of the remainder.
Marioento is interesting upped to 2m for the first time. George Boughey's gelding was heavily backed when tested at 1m4f last time but was found out in a bit of a sprint finish. Given how well he finsihed off his races over 1m2f twice prior he looks to have every chance of seeing out this 2m trip and should prove tough to beat. However, on balance it may be worth chancing the proven stayer CAPTAIN POTTER who can put a poor seasonal bow behind him and land a second top prize on the Flat. While he's not gone on Tapeta since his first three career runs it's worth noting he was runner-up in two of those and probably represent two of his best efforts. Billy Bathgate is a danger to all but is unreliable and Ebony Maw has a bit to prove off a layoff having lost form at the end of last season
Touch keen, but very promising debut when runner-up beaten a neck in a maiden over 7f at Kempton in October; up in trip here, but open to improvement and should go well despite being seasonal debut
Beaten a neck by First Kiss when second of 7 at 22-1 on her racecourse debut at Kempton over 7f in October last year. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with I Mohammed.

Waldgeist filly; half-sister to Ruler Legend, smart at 14f; dam smart at 10f; probably come on for the run
Grace Taufan hit the woodwork on her debut in October but although she's likely to improve, it will be more difficult now that she has to concede weight all round as the only four-year-old in this line-up. With that in mind a chance can be taken on PERGOLA. The daughter of Wootton Bassett fetched 240,000gns as a yearling while being related to a few useful types and with her yard in flying form, a bold bid looks likely. Cajole displayed promise on her racecourse bow recently and is also noted.
GRACE TAUFAN only went down by a necjk on debut despite being keen and despite being back from a winter off can improve and should go close here. Cajole ran on nicely on debut, comes from a yard that brings them along steadily and looks a threat and Polygram has run creditably so far and may improve a little and contend. Pergola is the standout among the newcomers having cost 240,000 guineas and comes from a top yard.

NATIONAL PARK is the only contender with any previous experience after showing promise to finish fourth on his debut at Kempton. William Haggas' colt might only need to find normal improvement in order to get off the mark. The main threat could be Watch And Shoot, who changed hands for 170,000 pounds as a yearling and is a brother to Group 2 winner Juliet Capulet. Any market confidence behind The English Rogue would be interesting.
English Harbour has produced the best form of these, but disappointed on his latest start and has had to have a wind operation since. He could be as good as he looked initially, but has a few questions to answer and preference is just for NATIONAL PARK who ran with promise on his debut in a good race. He should step forwards and go well. Watch And Shoot a £170,000 purchase is the most eye-catching of the newcomers.

An eye-catcher on his first run in 577 days, SAVVY KINGDOM ran on well for third late in the piece at Lingfield that day and with improvement expected, he can get back to winning ways. Making his handicap debut off a mark of 75 after scoring comfortably at Chelmsford last time out, Live Aid must enter calculations, along with Mr Mistoffelees, who has been knocking on the door of late.
A very tricky puzzle. Most have decent claims but also have something to prove so the ultra-consistent Mr Mistoffelees will prove popular under conditions that suit. He deserves to break his winning drought (14 runs since his sole win) but the handicapper has not been kind in pushing him back up a pound and chances are he'll fall just short again. CHUZZLEWIT could prove the solution. He has to put two indifferent runs on turf behind him but he can rediscover his sparkle returned to the scene of his good third of seven over course and distance in early March when he travelled well but was left too much to do. The host of others with a chance are headed by the unexposed Savvy Kingdom who ran a blinder when placed on first try as far as a mile off an 18-month absence and if able to build on that will go close

David O'Meara can do very well with new recruits and he may be able to work his magic with LEADMAN, who is bred to be much better than what he has shown on the track thus far. Runner-up at Kempton when last seen in October, he should appreciate dropping in trip and it may be that Benacre gives him the most to think about, despite being winless since October 2022. Tasever may also have a say in proceedings.
It's difficult not to doubt the resolve of LEADMAN having been second on five of his seven runs but he hasn't thrown any away and it might pay to hold nerve here. Many have a fitness edge but David O'Meara's gelding has gone very well fresh three times in a short career to date. He's proven on Tapeta and a stiff seven furlongs looks ideal. The maiden tag could go. Benacre has to be excused a below par effort last time but should be more comfortable back in this grade and rates a big threat but Project Geoffin is feared most. The form of Geoff Oldroyd's gelding dipped late last term but he won a class 5 handicap over course and distance in October and followed it up with a fine second upped to this level. Off the same mark and with a good record fresh (4th of 19 last year and second on career debut in 2023) he shouldn't be far away
Ground probably too testing beaten 7l in a handicap over 7f at Galway last time in October; first time on Tapeta; 1m suits; won first time out last term; threat down in grade on UK debut
A winner at 7f. Beaten 7l behind Rhythm King at 14-1 when seventh of 16 on her latest outing at Galway over 7f (heavy) in October last year. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Gavin Cromwell in Ireland.

Pop Favorite was game in winning a similar event over C&D 22 days but while he commands respect, he wouldn't be an obvious one to register back-to-back wins based on past exploits. CUBAN FIESTA wasn't far away in fourth in that race and with a visor back on, he can turn the form around. Makeen and Madame Plaintiff are others to note in the betting.
Pop Favorite had almost two lengths to spare over Cuban Fiesta when winning over course and distance a few weeks back. With Cuban Fiesta getting a 4lb pull it's likely to be very tight this time and both can play a big role again but MADAME PLAINTIFF is taken to make a starring role on her stable debut having moved from Ireland. She was placed off this mark on her penultimate start seeing out the mile powerfully and should find this company a shade more accomadating than she's got accustomed to. A winner first tme out last year there's every chance of a big run if taking to this new surface
Bit in hand scored by 2 1/4l off 50 over CD in February; second beaten 3/4l off 54 last time; conditions suit; major player

ATHOLLBLAIR BOY and Spartan Fighter are handily drawn and could have the race unfold to suit. The latter appeals off 9lb lower than when successful over track and trip last October and is dangerous to underestimate. However, the former seems to reserve his best for this venue these days and he is very capable of bouncing back from a rare below-par run at Thirsk earlier in the month. Asadjumeirah and Flash The Dash can also be on the premises.
SPARTAN FIGHTER looks the value call in a tight race. The veteran's last run is best ignored as he palpably did not get the trip on his first try over a mile in an 82 race career. He went well here over 7f prior to that but is best at this 6f. He can gain a seventh course and distance win off a career low mark. The most obvious danger is Asadjumeirah who has been in solid form this year with two wins and three seconds already. Over his optimum conditions he should go close again. Another showing remarkable resilience is May Remain who desperately deserves reward for some cracking efforts in a very busy year so far despite often not enjoying the rub of the green. If Ivan Furtado's gelding is 1lb well in for future races and if not feeling the effects of a third run in a week the warrior can get a podium finish
