In what looks a trappy start to proceedings, it could pay to side with the Pat Haslam-trained ELAINE'S FOLLY. This past C&D winner didn't appear to get home when sixth in a claimer over 7f at Thirsk eight days ago and will be fancied to regain the winning thread dropped in both trip and grade. Carmanjoe faces his easiest task to date and could get involved at the finish, along with Scenic Pass.

SLOOP JOHNB stayed on in determined fashion when making every yard of the running over 5f at Carlisle last time and, with this step up in trip not a concern, he gets the confident nod to complete a double. Becausewecan bounced right back to form when third over this trip at Haydock latest and is entitled to play a leading role here, while top-weighted Fivefootnumberone is another with claims.

BORASCO was mightily impressive when beating the useful Yamal (who has won three times since) by 4 1/2 lengths over this trip at Newcastle latest and, although a 9lb rise in the weights is sure to make life tougher, she's hard to oppose in her bid to follow up. Passion Fruit looked a rejuvenated character when third in first-time cheekpieces at Newcastle two weeks ago and rates the main threat, with Kashimin also respected.

LAST THREE MINUTES powered clear in the closing stages to score by 6 lengths over 1m1f at Yarmouth 19 days ago and, with that first run since October under his belt, he looks the one to beat on his handicap debut. Gala Casino Star is unlikely to go down without a fight in his bid to complete a hat-trick, while Opus Maximus is another who cannot be ruled out on the back of his Nottingham success.

Bryan Smart boasts a fine level stakes profit with his runners at this venue over the last five seasons and can gain further success here with CHOSEN ONE. This Choisir colt is sure to arrive fully wound up for his debut and should give a good account. Billy Bowmore has been getting closer to the target with each start and could pose the main danger, while Unbiased is another for the short-list.

ROWAN LODGE appeared to have plenty left in the tank when scoring by 2 1/4 lengths over an extended 7f at Carlisle latest and could take some stopping in his bid to follow up off the same mark. Claret And Amber was 2 1/2 lengths behind the selection on that occasion (finishing third) and looks sure to be on the premises once again, while Evelith Regent is another who cannot be taken lightly.

TRIP THE LIGHT stayed on relentlessly when landing the spoils over an extended 1m4f at Beverley last time and, with this stiffer test of stamina likely to suit, he gets the vote to defy a 4lb rise in the weights. Banquet wasn't beaten too far when seventh at Beverley 19 days ago and should mount a bold bid here, while Hill Cloud could be another worth noting in the betting on his belated return.
