16:20 Space Kid
Spirit Of Rowdown has gone up a stone in the weights since his first win but he’s open to further improvement on AW and has to be feared. Beechwood Emily and Zoolander are closely matched with that rival on recent C&D form, while Heat And Dust and handicap debutant Night Force are interesting types. However, this competitive race for the grade may go to SPACE KID, who is ahead of the assessor and returns to the scene of his November success.
16:55 The Thunderer
Four-race maiden Stanley Baldwin sets the form standard but he’s taking on several likely improvers, notably THE THUNDERER, and a bright-looking newcomer in Liverpool Knight whose interesting claims will be cemented if the market speaks positively. Mercurius Power, Invincible Gift and Alto Volante are others to note.
17:30 Castlebar
Last-time-out winners CASTLEBAR and Book Of Secrets are leading contenders in this fairly weak race for the grade, while Altiste is a possible improver. Castlebar gained his success on Tapeta and can follow up.
18:00 Carey Street (NAP)
Ten Chants has a major chance of following up last week’s C&D success, provided the visor works as well the second time. A solid alternative is CAREY STREET (nap), who has consistent form at this venue since joining Linda Stubbs and went very close on his penultimate start. Steal The Scene and Al Ozzdi are well-treated course winners who can’t be left out of calculations, while Emerald Fox has possibilities if transferring her Polytrack form to Tapeta.

18:30 Swinging Eddie
The Grant Tuer-trained SWINGING EDDIE appeared to have a bit in hand when getting off the mark over C&D last week so may be capable of defying a penalty. Firsteen and Bold Decision could be the pair to give him most to think about.
19:00 Beauty Choice
The most solid option is BEAUTY CHOICE who is going the right way on AW and looks to have a fair bit in his favour from a handy draw. Chookie Dunedin had excuses here last time and his excellent overall track record makes him a must for the shortlist, while Tintoretto failed to fire when favourite on his latest start but is back on a winning mark and Tom Marquand has a good record on him.
19:30 Thai Terrier
The solid THAI TERRIER is taken to record a deserved second success, possibly at the main expense of course winners Nelson River and Monjeni, though Tynecastle Park has a fighting chance if he takes to Tapeta and Riverfront would be interesting if the market speaks favourably.
