Odd Ball returned to form when second in a 0-50 at Wolverhampton last month and remains competitively handicapped despite a 2lb rise in the weights. However, Lisa Williamson's gelding needs to demonstrate his effectiveness on this slower surface and over this longer trip, so the vote goes to FEARLESS POET. Bryan Smart's representative has winning course form and scored over this trip at Kempton in January. 4lb higher now, he remains weighted to win more races. Sopran Nad and Bonnie Prince Blue are both sliding down the weights and are others to consider.
Fearless Poet has twice gone off too hard since scoring at Kempton in January, but this won't take much winning and he's given a chance to redeem himself. Odd Ball finished with a flourish at Wolverhampton last time, and looks next best. Sopran Nad completes the shortlist.
Winner of five races from 5f to 6f including a win on fibresand. Third of 9 behind Greenhead High beaten a head at 9-1 on his latest outing at Wolverhampton over 5f last month.

Has won ten races from 5f to 6f including 6 wins on fibresand. Finished 6l behind Shawkantango when fifth of 6 at 14-1 on her latest outing at Wolverhampton over 5f last month.
SHAWKANTANGO has won four times over C&D in the past and remains on a fair mark, still only 3lb higher than when prevailing by a head at Wolverhampton last month. Derek Shaw's gelding was well-held at the same track last time but was done no favours by the draw and could leave that form behind now back on his favoured surface. Suddenly Susan was in front of the selection in third last time but has done her winning over shorter and may have to settle for a supporting role here. Dancing Freddy takes his racing well and is another to consider on the back of a near miss at Wolverhampton.
A wide-open handicap, and Wreningham stands as good a chance as any to resume winning ways after being given a short break. Suddenly Susan and Punching are just 2 of several potential dangers.
He has won three times from 6f to 1m 4f including 2 wins on fibresand. Beaten 1l by McConnell when second of 4 at 14-1 on his latest outing here over 1m last month.

Unplaced in both starts. Finished 18l behind Litigant when last of 6 on his latest outing at Maisons-Laffitte over 1m 6f (good) in July last year. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with A Fabre in France.

STAND GUARD notched his first course victory when landing a 1m4f handicap here last month and rates the one to beat now eased into selling grade. John Butler's charge comes out best at the weights and looks the most likely winner. Trans Sonic is effective under these conditions but his losing run dates back a year. The assessor has cut his all-weather mark 13lb since his last run so he could attract interest in the bidding ring after - as he's undoubtedly well-treated on his best form ahead of a return to handicaps. River Ardeche is effective at this level but has produced his best form to date over shorter.
A good opportunity for Stand Guard to follow up his recent 1½m handicap success here. River Ardeche is the only other one in the line-up with solid recent form, but he still has quite a bit to find and will need the selection to underperform.
He has won three times from 1m 4f to 1m 6f on polytrack. Beaten 18l behind Alsahil at 10-1 when eighth of 10 on his latest outing at York over 1m 4f (good) in September last year.

MEDITERRANEAN SEA has raised her game on fibresand this winter and notched a hat-trick when scoring over 1m3f here last month. John Jenkins' mare has been raised 4lb for her troubles but remains eligible for 0-75 races and should continue to give a good account of herself when operating at this level. Storm Hawk and Magic Millie are proven around here and are capable of making their presence felt but the main danger appears to be the unexposed Ace Serve, who is making her handicap debut on the back of a career-best second in a 1m4f course maiden.
Cotton King isn't on a bad mark on the pick of his form and he could be worth chancing on this new surface on his return to action. Magic Millie and Storm Hawk could prove best of the rest.
Successful at 7f and 1m 4f on fibresand. Finished 15l behind Dashing Eddie when sixth of 8 at 16-1 on his latest outing here over 1m in January.

Mustajed won an amateur riders' handicap here on his penultimate start off 7lb lower but has disappointed over C&D since and is taken on with KINGAROO. The selection is on a losing run dating back almost a year, but shaped with promise on his last Flat start here last month and has now dropped 5lb below his last winning mark. Magic Haze and Rubi Dia are proven over the track and trip and would be others to consider if the money arrived.
Rubi Dia's form figures don't look too inspiring but he will appreciate the return to a longer trip, should be at peak fitness now and is dropping back into 0-60 company. He could be worth chancing against some inconsistent sorts and is taken to get the better of Magic Haze and Kingaroo.
He has won four times from 6f to 7f including a win on fibresand, but last win was over three years ago. Beaten a head by Chilli Green when second of 10 at 10-1 on his latest outing at Kempton over 7f last month.

The feature race on the card can go the way of COLOUR GUARD. Mark Johnston's representative is unpenalised for his easy victory in an apprentices' handicap at the start of the month and is undoubtedly well-treated on his current perch of 75. King Of Windsor was never placed to challenge when flopping on his first run for Keith Dalgleish at Kempton last time but needs to prove his effectiveness on this slower surface. Bigger dangers are Beautiful Day, who is seeking a C&D hat-trick but returns from an 81-day absence, and the unexposed Great Expectations, who steps up in trip after an impressive 7f maiden win here latest.
Colour Guard is unpenalised for a C&D win last week, and with plenty more to come from him after just 3 runs, he'll be hard to contain. Beautiful Day and Great Expectations are taken to fill the minor honours.
Successful at 5f and 6f including a win on fibresand. Beaten 8l behind Greenhead High at 12-1 when 9th of 13 on her latest outing over this course and distance in January.

BOND BLADE hinted his turn was near when third over C&D in January and gets the verdict now eased 1lb in the ratings. Bryan Smart's charge may be given most to think about by Caramelita, who doesn't score highly in the consistency stakes but is capable of going close off a rating of 60 (3lb lower than last winning mark) when putting her best foot forward. Transmit was beaten by less than a length off this mark at Wolverhampton back in January and is another to consider.
Bond Blade shaped well despite having to race wide last time, and ought to go close from an attractive mark, while both Itsthursdayalready and Transmit are likely to bounce back from modest recent efforts.
