Sunrise Lyric was heavily backed for a Lingfield maiden last month but that effort was ultimately disappointing and connections have quickly moved to drop the Rock Of Gibralter filly in class today. She could prove a handful if putting her best foot forward but the standard is set by KIRSTY'S BOY who has proved a tough nut to crack at this level and landed a decent event over 7f here two weeks ago. The consistent Tuscan King and Ant Music are feared most of the remainder.
Kirsty's Boy has yet to prove he stays 1m, but he has a few pounds in hand on these terms and looks worth the risk. The unexposed Sunrise Lyric is nominated as the main danger given that the drop in class and step up in trip are both in her favour.
Placed twice in five starts. Beaten 3/4l by Lovers Causeway when second of 9 at 9-1 on his latest outing here over 1m 2f last month.

Half-sister to Where's Susie, won twice on the flat at 1m 3f and 1m 5f and over hurdles at 2m 2f. Beaten 11l behind Ginger Jack at 50-1 when eighth of 12 on her racecourse debut at Kempton over 1m earlier this month.

Banks And Braes, officially rated 73, sets a fair enough standard following a sound effort when giving the useful Lovers Causeway most to think about in a maiden here over 1m 2f last month. There should be a little race to be won with him but it could be worth taking a chance on the Barry Hills-trained BLUES MUSIC, who shaped with plenty of encouragement when fourth on his Wolverhampton debut earlier this month. Understory, well backed on debut, and the newcomer Rebel Soldier are others to consider.
Banks And Braes sets the standard, but he's come up short in 5 previous attempts and hasn't much scope to progress physically. It would be no surprise if something improves past him, with Blues Music a prime candidate after his strong finish on debut. Newcomer Rebel Soldier also has to be considered.
Winner of six races from 1m to 1m 2f including 5 wins on the all-weather (1 FB, 4 PO). Beaten 12l behind Manassas at 28-1 when 12th of 13 on his latest outing at Doncaster over 1m (good to firm) in September last year.

Mahadee is a cut above these on his best form and was a two times winner on the polytrack this time last year. However, he will need to be cherry-ripe on today's return to action and preference is for the much improved AUTUMN BLADES who has won four times since landing a Brighton claimer back in September. Only narrowly beaten by Everymanforhimself over 7f here last time, the 5-y-o has had the re-opposing Benandonner and Mr Willis behind in recent weeks and can confirm that form today. The latter is another who has risen through the ranks but he has a stiff mark to overcome now.
Regular backers of Mr Willis have made a tidy profit and there are good reasons to believe he can make it 6 wins at the course. Orchard Supreme has come down to the sort of mark which makes him a very tempting each-way alternative, with The Kyllachy Kid another to consider on his first try over 1m.
Successful at 1m 1f and 1m 2f including a win on polytrack, but last win was over two years ago. Beaten 8l behind Thin Red Line at 50-1 when 9th of 12 on her latest outing at Kempton over 1m 4f in October last year.

Quinsman has been in terrific form of late but he has no secrets from the handicapper now and he is passed over in favour of French import SPRUCE. The selection made a UK debut full of promise when touched off around here and duly made amends when landing a match with Ivestar in bloodless fashion at Southwell last time. Only 6lb higher today, he could still be well treated and looks worth siding with from the foot of the weights. The return to the polytrack should suit recent Southwell disappointment Gargano, while the in-form Kames Park (engaged to run at Wolverhampton yesterday) is also very much in the picture.
A hard-to-solve handicap for which last year's winner War of The Roses is a tentative selection. Spruce had only one to beat last time but probably has more to offer, while Gargano could easily bounce back from a poor run on fibresand.
A winner at 7f on polytrack, but that win was over two years ago. Beaten 1 1/2l behind Baylini at 14-1 when seventh of 10 on his latest outing over this course and distance last month.

DECEMBER DRAW turned in his best effort for some time when chasing home Mister Green over C&D last month and despite facing a couple of interesting rivals this time around, a repeat performance could well be good enough. Hazzard County wasn't disgraced in stronger company here last time and merits obvious respect in this company along with recent winners Officer In Command and Cupid's Glory.
December Draw saw the race out well when runner-up over C&D last time and won't be easily pegged back if getting an uncontested lead in this small field. That's a distinct possibility, so he's preferred to last-time-out winners Cupid's Glory and Officer In Command.

Trading Nation hinted at something like a return to his best form when third over 7f here last time but he hasn't proved the easiest to predict so far and the vote goes to PIPPBROOK MINISTAR. The selection made a debut full of promise when second to the well touted Arry's Orse here earlier this month and she can put that initial experience to good use and open her account today. The experienced Takajan and Penrod Ballantyne are others to consider.
Pippbrook Ministar lost all chance on the home turn on her C&D debut, but she'll know much more this time and is fancied to go one better. There should still be improvement in Penrod Ballantyne, and Mint Whip can't be ruled out.
Winner of seven races at 5f including 2 wins on polytrack. Well beaten at 9-1 behind The Nifty Fox when last of 15 on his latest outing at Catterick over 5f (good) in October last year.

Le Toreador is a classy sprinter on his day and could prove the one to beat if returning at his best but he ended last season a little out of sorts and a safer bet could come in the shape of IVORY SILK. Jeremy Gask's inmate turned in another solid display when second to Matsunosuke at Wolverhampton last month and deserves a change of luck today. Hoh Hoh Hoh makes more appeal than Pawan to claim third place prize money.
Le Toreador ended the turf campaign under a bit of a cloud, but he looks to have been found the perfect race for his return, given he's a front runner up against 2 hold-up performers and an habitual slow starter.
