A 4lb rise for SAUSALITO's fourth-consecutive victory in a classified stakes event over C&D earlier in the month may not be enough to prevent the Gary Moore inmate from going in again, although this return to handicap company is likely to prove a sterner test. Where's Tom was collared in the dying strides at Kempton last Wednesday and he's feared most ahead of the in-form Pablo Prince.
Prediction : 1st Sausalito 2nd Wheres Tom 3rd Pablo Prince

UMBERTO ran a race full of promise when runner-up on his debut at Kempton in November and, with any natural improvement, he could prove tough to pass in this contest. Ensued is another who may have improved for his racecourse bow at Salisbury in September and James Fanshawe's inmate can't be ruled out, with last-time-out winners Maid In Kentucky and Connemara Coast others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Umberto 2nd Ensued 3rd Maid In Kentucky

Erosion Risk can't be faulted for his consistency, although his supporters may be left somewhat frustrated given he's finished runner-up on seven of his 11 appearances on the all-weather. With that in mind, a chance is taken on the lightly-raced CHAMPAGNE SARAH, who wasn't quite at her best when third at Newcastle over 6f in November but may regain the winning thread now returned to her last winning distance. Miss Mai Tai is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Champagne Sarah 2nd Erosion Risk 3rd Miss Mai Tai

Badri has bounced back to form and will rightly have his supporters in his bid to land a hat-trick, while Kiwano was too good for Tone The Barone when they met over C&D three weeks ago and is taken to uphold the form. However, preference is for LIVE IN THE DREAM, who handles this surface, has been cut some slack by the handicapper and is taken to use this as a stepping stone to better things.
Prediction : 1st Live In The Dream 2nd Badri 3rd Kiwano

The undefeated KERDOS impressed on both outings as a juvenile and is taken to make light work of this assignment now switching to handicaps. A rating of 90 suggests he's above-average and he could prove too strong for these rivals. Zouky is another unbeaten after two starts and she's shown a likable attitude. This demands more of her but she too is going the right way. Conquistador also appeals on these terms after making a winning start for his new yard.
Prediction : 1st Kerdos 2nd Zouky 3rd Conquistador

Inaam had a couple of these in behind when he kept on well to score over C&D 17 days ago and is taken to confirm superiority over Triggered (fourth) as he bids to shrug off a 4lb rise for that effort. He's won from higher marks before and undoubtedly has a reasonable chance of following up. However, MASHAAN (second) was just over a length behind Inaam that day and could be good value to gain revenge on these revised terms.
Prediction : 1st Mashaan 2nd Inaam 3rd Triggered

The drop to 6f for the first time could make the difference needed for IKKARI to get off the mark. The daughter of Mehmas has shown a reasonable level of form in three outings to date and the way she travelled at Kempton, when returning from nine months off the track, suggested the filly is capable of progressing as a sprinter. Beauzon wasn't at his best over C&D at the start of the month and is better judged on his two efforts prior, while Epic Express and El Hombre are others capable of being in the mix.
Prediction : 1st Ikkari 2nd Beauzon 3rd Epic Express
