Verdict
RIVAL hasn't tasted success since winning over C&D in 2022 but is now on a career low mark and this could be the time to catch him with blinkers on for the first time following a pipe-opener at Chepstow earlier this month. King of the Dance is in excellent heart at present and holds solid claims, while it would be interesting if market support comes for Irish raider and handicap debutante Yquem.

VerdictLatest win at Wolverhampton in March (8.6f) and has proved consistent thereafter. As good as he's been for these connections when third of 9 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, soft, 9/1) 15 days ago. Should be in the mix again.

VerdictHas showed some improvement for the switch to handicaps, backed up previous all-weather effort returned to turf when fourth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (8f, good) 20 days ago. One of the least exposed and could have more to offer with cheekpieces on first time.- 2. RivalJ: Callum HutchinsonT: John & Rhys FlintF: 90/83625-6

VerdictOn a long losing run but is now 14 lb lower than when winning over this C&D in 2022. Placed in a higher grade than this last season and was entitled to need his comeback run (following 11 months) at Chepstow 15 days ago. Interesting contender sporting blinkers for the first time. - 8. YquemJ: David EganT: John S. O'Donoghue, IrelandF: 970

VerdictLittle impact in Irish sprint maidens but looks to have been campaigned with handicaps in mind. Now steps up to 1m and is one to note in the betting with David Egan an interesting jockey booking on handicap debut.

VerdictLongstanding maiden but more encouragement on latest start when second of 8 in conditions race (7/2) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 12 days ago, for all he did have the run of race from the front. Remains to be seen if he can back that up over a shorter trip on turf.

VerdictSome positives about his penultimate effort when fourth at Nottingham (8.4f) but ran no sort of race at Chepstow (8.1f) last month. Will need to bounce back if he's to capitalise on a career low mark.

VerdictHas offered something to work with (albeit poor form) on previous two starts on the all-weather, finished third of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 10 days ago. Will need to take a step forward on her return to turf.

VerdictYet to better poor form for current connections and again looked slightly awkward under pressure when fourth of 11 in handicap (66/1) at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm) 6 days ago, hung left over 1f out. Others preferred.- Unnamed Favourite
