FREETODREAM posted two cosy victories over this distance prior to being thwarted in his hat-trick bid when third over a mile at Brighton, but stepping back in trip off an unchanged mark, he gets the vote to return to winning ways. Roger Henry was sporting cheekpieces for the first time (retained) when making his handicap debut a winning one at Chelmsford and he merits consideration for a new stable, although easy Beverley scorer Powdering rates as the main danger to the selection under a 5lb penalty.
Prediction : 1st Freetodream 2nd Powdering 3rd Roger Henry

Runner-up on his two starts to date, Creative Story warrants serious consideration in what should be an informative affair but he may have to fill the same position once more, this time behind T'CHALLA. Andrew Balding's charge shaped like a colt who was still learning his trade when second at Southwell and he can take a sizable step forward on his second start. Kilt performed with credit when looking unsuited by the way the race developed on his introduction over 7f at Newcastle in December and better can be expected here.
Prediction : 1st Tchalla 2nd Creative Story 3rd Kilt

It was a testament to his ability that LAUTREC was able to get off the mark when still not looking the finished article on his Newcastle debut. After then being turned over at short odds over 1m2f at Chelmsford earlier this month, he gets a tentative vote to return to winning ways now pitched into handicap company in first-time cheekpieces. Rocking Tree has notched up two victories from as many starts for the George Boughey stable and he warrants respect. Skukuza was last seen finishing second over C&D at the Guineas meeting here and he cannot be ignored.
Prediction : 1st Lautrec 2nd Rocking Tree 3rd Skukuza

Eve Johnson Houghton appears to hold a strong hand with GOLD MEDALLIST and Forever My Prince, and preference is for the former. The son of Acclamation was only narrowly denied on heavy ground at Goodwood a fortnight ago and he can put that experience to good use, with the forecast quicker surface unlikely to be a problem. Foro Romano should be thereabouts following a decent second at Yarmouth, while market support for Alondra, whose sire has enjoyed a fine beginning to his stallion career, would be noteworthy.
Prediction : 1st Gold Medallist 2nd Foro Romano 3rd Forever My Prince

Front runners have enjoyed success on the Rowley Mile so far this season so VAYNOR gets the nod. Charles Hills' gelding shaped as if in need of the outing when sixth at Epsom, but a 1lb ease in the handicap means he is now back on his last winning mark and it would come as no surprise were he to step forward. Better can be expected of Composite, who failed to justify favouritism on his handicap debut. Iron Lion bolted up at Doncaster and must be taken seriously, despite a subsequent 8lb hike.
Prediction : 1st Vaynor 2nd Composite 3rd Iron Lion

It's hard to know exactly what Divine Breath achieved when winning at prohibitive odds at Wolverhampton in February, but she makes her handicap debut from a potentially workable mark and must be considered. That said, it is FENLANDER who gets the vote. Better was expected of Pam Sly's charge last time, though he didn't appear to handle Ripon all too well and could repay his supporters. Recent Musselburgh scorer Giorgio M remains of interest, while Want Want is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Fenlander 2nd Divine Breath 3rd Giorgio M
