An open contest but SANAT won a higher band of handicap than this on the AW when last seen in February and equally effective on turf, he could be the answer back from a break. Keldeo, Glory Hyde and Stash The Cash are a trio of possible threats.

Verdict
Tongue strap on for first time and produced a career best when winning 7-runner handicap (8/1) at Southwell (5f) 80 days ago, readily despite carrying his head a shade awkwardly. Has to be taken seriously up 6 lb back on turf.

C&D winner who opened her account for the season in 10-runner handicap (10/1) at Pontefract (5f, good) 21 days ago, just holding on. Clearly fit and in form so has to command respect.

12/1, promising return when fifth of 14 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good) 22 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. May well build on that for in-form yard.
