FORO ROMANO stepped forward from his third at Wolverhampton when filling the runner-up spot at Yarmouth and the experience of those performances may well be enough to see George Boughey's colt get off the mark. Sir Palamedes is entitled to improve for the extra furlong based on his fourth at Bath last time, while it will be interesting to see how the market reacts to the chances of newcomer Sunshine State.
Prediction : 1st Foro Romano 2nd Sir Palamedes 3rd Sunshine State

DARK SIDE PRINCE arrives following a hat-trick of C&D victories and a 3lb rise for the latest success doesn't seem likely to stop the seven-year-old from continuing in his current vein of form. Almaty Star remains on the same mark as his second at Lingfield earlier in the month, when one place in front of Harry Brown, and the pair have to enter the reckoning. Emperor Spirit and Rocking Ends are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Dark Side Prince 2nd Almaty Star 3rd Harry Brown

Loves Loving displayed her inexperience on debut, breaking slowly from the stalls, when fourth at Goodwood and she may have paid for that in the closing stages. If getting away on terms, the daughter of Expert Eye is more than capable of taking a decent step forward. The vote, though, goes to EHTIRAM. She was beaten at odds-on when returning at Lingfield, but that was an improved effort and she has scope for further improvement. Qamari and Expected Arrival complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Ehtiram 2nd Loves Loving 3rd Qamari

TARJEEH has clearly had his issues, with just the four career starts, but he ran well to be beaten three lengths into eighth at Windsor on his first appearance of 2024 and looks all set for a big performance off 1lb lower here, assuming nominal improvement. David Simcock's horses are running well and Sniper's Eye could be interesting, despite an absence of close to nine months. C&D winner Wadacre Gomez is another to consider, for a place at least.
Prediction : 1st Tarjeeh 2nd Snipers Eye 3rd Wadacre Gomez

JENSON BENSON loves it here with four career wins, the latest over this trip in February off a mark 4lb higher than his current figure. Fifth here in February when left with a bit too much to do, he can go close on his return from a break. Night Breeze is due to go up 4lb for future contests after his Kempton second and is the obvious danger, despite the rise in class. River Alwen intrigues on his first start since returning from Hong Kong.
Prediction : 1st Jenson Benson 2nd Night Breeze 3rd River Alwen

Hey Lyla kept on well to win by half a length at Hamilton and an added 2lb may not stop another big effort, though the drop back from 1m1f could see her have to settle for a place. BOASTY has won here three times and only went under by a nose and a short head in a photo last time out, so he may prove the one to beat. Running Star has been gelded since his Pontefract third and could improve in first-time cheekpieces.
Prediction : 1st Boasty 2nd Hey Lyla 3rd Running Star
