The Jim Bolger-trained Neo Smart showed signs of a return to form when placed on her last two outings here last month. Most recently, the five-year-old filly finished a length and a half fourth behind Ocean Manifest 42 days ago over tonight's C&D. She has a good chance here on the weights and I think she will go a lot closer here.

Ed Walker's eight-year-old Popmaster only went down by half a length when bidding for a Kempton double over seven furlongs two days ago. He gets in here off the same mark of 97, is drawn well in stall two, and may fare better over this longer trip.

Gary and Josh Moore's Kotmask fell at the fourth fence in a much better race over today's two-mile trip at Sandown. The time before that he finished just over four lengths behind the Ben Pauling-trained Vanderpoel, who is among the favourites for the Grand Annual at the same venue. Now he is dropped in grade, and with cheekpieces refitted he has a great chance here.

The Charlie Johnston-trained four-year-old Solarize has won two of his six starts. Both of those wins have come over middle-distance trips. He caught my eye when a narrow second at Kempton over a mile and a half. Today he steps up to two miles for the first time, which should suit him as he is related to a few winners over staying trips.

The Rebecca Menzies-trained Raffertys Return has to have a good each-way chance here. The eleven-year-old veteran runs off a whopping 20 lbs lower than his last winning mark, in a race two grades higher than this. That win was nearly two years ago, but the old boy did show signs of a return to form when seventh at Carlisle in a better race than this at the beginning of the month. With four places being paid, he could be worth a few quid e.w.

Mark Walford's Just Call Me Lucy has a good chance here. One of this eight-year-old mare's two career wins came over this C&D in December 2024. She also ran well when second here in November. Last time out she finished fifth at Newcastle when the stable was out of form. The Walford yard has just begun to fire again, and I expect a much better showing from her today.

The Venetia Williams stable has finally started to have a few winners. She has a healthy strike rate of 20% ??" five winners and six seconds from her last 25 runners in the past two weeks ??" and can keep up that good run here with the lightly raced eleven-year-old mare Lagonda, whose most recent win came in a three-mile handicap chase on this card last year.

He followed that with a good third-place finish on his handicap debut in December, before a disappointing run when finishing fifth in a two-and-a-half-mile handicap at Huntingdon in January. This afternoon, off a two-pound lower mark, he has a chance to get his career back on track.

In the 2024 season, the David Brace-trained Classic Concorde won six handicaps over trips around three miles. He has been on a long run since, but he did run well enough for a long way in a three-mile handicap at Chepstow when last seen in public sixty days ago, off a two lb higher mark than the one of 113 he carries here. Although now aged thirteen and in the veteran stage of his career, I think he has a chance here.

Sam England's Asian Journey despite the fact that he remains a maiden after ten starts, had been running well with two particularly good placed efforts over seven furlongs at Southwell, before racing too keenly when cheekpieces were reapplied in a handicap over the same C&D last week, which saw him finish eighth of twelve. Today with the headgear removed and back up to a mile he should go a lot better, particularly with Paul Mulrennan who rides this course better than most of his contemporaries onboard for the first time.

I am prepared to give him another chance.

J P McManus has no less than five representatives in this race. The one I like is the Gavin Cromwell-trained seven-year-old Mywayofthinkin, who looks to me to be very well handicapped. He is a half-brother to Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Inowthewayurthinkin. He found the company a bit hot when entered in three good beginners' chases at the start of his chasing career, but he showed far more in this company when keeping on fourth at Limerick over two miles one furlong in December. Today's two-and-a-half-mile trip will suit him better. I think he is a good each-way bet here.

Gordon Elliott's Raydamann's sole win in six starts over hurdles came with an easy four-and-a-quarter-length win in a two-mile Clonmel maiden in April last year. Since then, his best runs have come when finishing fifth in a handicap at the Galway Festival and finishing in the same position in a similar race at Tramore a fortnight later. On both those occasions he carried a lb more than the mark of 117. He finished sixth at Punchestown a week ago. He looks a decent each-way bet here with five places being paid.
