13:00 Rosie Powers

The two previous winners can battle this out. Crimson Sand should welcome this return to 6f and has the advantage of recording his win here but ROSIE POWERS gets the nod. She was visually impressive, despite wandering under pressure, when sent off 8-11 at Wolverhampton last month. There could be plenty more to come.

13:30 Redgrave

Plenty in with a shout but it may be worth chancing class-dropper REDGRAVE. His best RPR of 2019 came on his return and he was only 1lb off his peak 2020 figure first time up last year. Avorisk Et Perils, Libbretta and Abel Tasman (in that order) head the dangers.

14:00 Royal Mews

This can go to ROYAL MEWS, who looked an exciting prospect when surging clear in a 1m2f Chelmsford maiden in October and sets a a very useful standard on his seasonal return. The danger is Lost Eden, who justified favouritism under a positive ride over C&D on his reappearance last month and is open to further progress on his third start.

14:30 Emerald Fox

Most of these have something to prove and the one that stands out is EMERALD FOX, who was a comfortable winner over C&D in two of her last three runs last year and is open to further progress back from a break. Mr Mac has had excuses in both runs since his course win in January and could pose a serious threat if things go his way this time. Another to consider is the lightly raced Urtzi, who was a promising third at a big price here on her comeback last month and has claims if she can build on that.

15:00 Headora

An open race in which the vote goes to HEADORA, who did clear best of the prominent runners when going very close on his handicap/seasonal debut at Wolverhampton and is open to further progress off only 2lb higher here. Last week’s comfortable Kempton scorer Cuban Cigar is feared most under a penalty, though the other last-time-out winner River Wharfe is respected at this new trip. Others who could have a big part to play are Merry Secret and Sayifyouwill.

15:30 King’s Knight

A few to consider, with KING’S KNIGHT the most interesting. He’s uncomplicated, could have more to offer at four and is half-brother to couple of AW winners. Caspian Queen, who ran to an RPR of 95 last year, looks a threat starting out for Sean Woods, while La Maquina is also considered.

16:05 Mummy Bear

The early stages of this contest will be key with likely types and pace drawn wide. The safest option is MUMMY BEAR, who was ultimately nicely on top at the finish when sent off favourite for her handicap debut four weeks ago. This extra furlong can eke out more from her. Returning to 7f can see Rosemary And Thyme do better, while Canoodled looks the pick of those starting out in handicaps.

16:35 Rainbow Mirage (NAP)

A typically competitive Class 6 handicap to close the card. With 7f around here promising to suit better than when showing good form for the grade over 6f last time, RAINBOW MIRAGE (nap) is the call. Soyounique, if settling, Axel Jacklin, if assuming a good early sit from stall 9, and Pure Purfection can battle it out for minor honours.
