PERREGRIN has recently been gelded and is expected to leave behind his maiden and novice sprint form now sent handicapping off an opening mark of 58 for Mark Johnston. Dancing Leopard has been a model of consistency over 7f and has place claims now granted this stiffer test. The pick of the remainder may be Gweedore, who debuts for Katie Scott.
Prediction : 1st Perregrin 2nd Dancing Leopard 3rd Gweedore

Xian Express failed to beat a rival home at Newcastle on his first start for Mick Appleby but is worth a market check now moving on to Fibresand. Preference is still for ALEX GRACIE, who weakened inside the final furlong when fifth over 7f here last time and is a likely improver now cutting back in trip. Astrozone showed up well when second over C&D in November and could also figure on these terms.
Prediction : 1st Alex Gracie 2nd Xian Express 3rd Astrozone

CRIMSON KING picked up minor money over C&D on his first start for Mick Appleby before returning a beaten favourite over the same trip in a first-time visor at Kempton. He's rated 3lb higher now but is open to more improvement for his new handler and also in the retained headgear. Ollivander has been eased 1lb for finishing third over track and trip in November and can fight it out with Thursday's Wolverhampton third Robero for the silver medal.
Prediction : 1st Crimson King 2nd Ollivander 3rd Robero
