12:45 File Illico

An open contest. Anightinlambourn should remain a big player back up in trip, while Just So Cool should be thereabouts if shrugging off a lacklustre effort. Handicap newcomer Velasco is open to improvement and can have a say but it could be worth giving another chance to FILE ILLICO, whose jumping let him down at a vital stage last time. He is taken to atone on his handicap debut.

13:15 Jack Valentine

Having stayed on well to win over 2m on his chase debut, JACK VALENTINE should improve for this step back up in trip and is taken to beat the experienced Cybalko and chasing debutant O’Hanrahan Bridge.

13:45 Style It Out (NAP)

Having caught the eye when a staying-on fifth in a better race than this over 2m3f at Doncaster last time, STYLE IT OUT (nap) can get off the mark now stepped up to 3m plus. Previous winners Wild Polly (feared most) and Hudson Yard are obvious dangers.

14:15 Ibis Du Rheu

In what looks a competitive handicap chase IBIS DU RHEU is taken to get back to winning ways on his second start for his new yard. Schiehallion Munro and Who’s In The Box are two others worth considering.

14:45 Didorus

Although he lacks a recent run DIODORUS is taken to win on his handicap debut with Newbury scorer Maskada likely to prove his main danger.

15:15 Wishing And Hoping

Plenty have points to prove here, including WISHING AND HOPING after being upset at odds-on in a Chaddesley Corbett point. However, his usual consistency and level of form suggest that he should again prove hard to beat. The former Grade 2 winner Haymount might still be good enough to mount the most serious challenge to the selection, with Duhallow Tornado also making some each-way appeal.

15:45 Nothin To Ask

Ex-Irish NOTHIN TO ASK showed promise on his British debut at Wincanton and he should have plenty going for him in a race that doesn’t look too competitive. Mexico looks the main danger of those with form at this level though Carisbrook could come on plenty for his debut experience and winning pointer For Fitz Sake is worth a market check.
