Preview:

With no form to go on, a close eye should be kept on the betting for clues, but there is plenty to like abut TORSHI. Representing the in-form George Boughey, the 25,000gns purchase is closely related to juvenile Listed sprint winner Gusto and a bold bid could be on the cards. Empress Sheba is likely to be popular for Archie Watson and Hollie Doyle, being a full-sister to 6f two-year-old winner Reloaded, while Keving Ryan has his string in fine form and he is double-handed courtesy of Lady Ayresome and Recline.

Preview:

SUPER OVER made a very promising start over 7f at Newcastle in November, finished a long way clear of third as he was just edged out by a more experienced rival who is now rated 80. Archie Watson's colt should have more to offer with that run under his belt and he can gain compensation for that near-miss. Feared most are Tiny Danser, who showed signs of ability in two Newcastle outings late last year, and Tom Dascombe-trained newcomer Graceful Moment, a 35,000-pound half-sister to useful two-year-old winner He's A Keeper.

2.75 MR EXCELLENCY (IRE); 4.50 TAHONTA (IRE); 5.00 SURPRISE PICTURE (IRE); 6.00 FIRST GREYED (IRE); FREAK OUT (IRE); 11.00 AND BETTER OTHERS.

Preview:

TAHONTA built on a near-miss over 5f at Beverley when staying on strongly to land a 6f nursery at Pontefract in October and should relish this extra yardage. That form has worked out well and a 5lb higher mark may not prevent a bold double bid on his reappearance. Mr Excellency is unbeaten after two outings at Southwell, most recently winning well over this trip last month, and looks feasibly treated off 81 now switched to turf for his handicap bow. Freak Out was doing his best work at the finish when making a winning nursery debut over 7f here in September and is another likely to appreciate the step up to 1m, but he has a 10lb rise to contend with.

Preview:

KETTLE HILL confirmed the promise of his Windsor maiden win last July when returning with a facile success under a penalty in a novice event over the extended 1m at Wolverhampton last month, and that form was boosted when the second hacked up at the start of April. William Haggas' charge looks a nice prospect and an opening mark of 85 gives him a big chance here. C&D winner Dawaaleeb is fit from a good winter on the all-weather and remains feasibly treated, while Hayadh sneaks in off top weight and should strip fitter for a decent effort in a competitive 7f event at Musselburgh nine days ago.

Forecast:

1.75 MILITARY MISSION (IRE); 2.50 JACK KENNEDY; 4.00 CAMELOT TALES (FR); 7.00 ENSURED (IRE); 11.00 AND BETTER OTHERS.

Preview:

Everything that could go wrong for Regimento did at Newcastle last time, as he was slowly away and then clipped heels around halfway. The fact he got within three lengths of the winner there suggests he could have a future over this trip. Camelot Tales shaped as though he needed further when fourth over 1m at Newcastle on debut and has been gelded since, while Ensured lost all chance at the start on his Gosforth Park debut and could be better up in trip. MILITARY MISSION gets the vote, though, as Hugo Palmer's grey earned a mark of 85 with some solid efforts in defeat last year and he could return to action with a win. John and Thady Gosden's newcomer Jack Kennedy is one to keep an eye on too.

2.00 OTYRAR; 2.25 CHASE THE DOLLAR; 3.33 PARACHUTE; 7.00 CONTACT (IRE); 8.00 RED FLYER (IRE).

Preview:

CHASE THE DOLLAR offered plenty of encouragement in three starts last season, following up a gutsy maiden win at Ayr with second at Chester. Mark Johnston's son of Frankel could flourish over this trip and could be the answer in this trappy heat. Otyrar struck over this trip at Kempton last month and that recent race fitness could be a factor in this, while Parachute ended last term on a high at Lingfield and looks likely to make an impact.

Preview:

Greengage has been running well over further on the all-weather of late and could be a factor, while Tricorn took third over an extended mile at Wolverhampton last time and could be capable of more over this trip. Amsby ran well for fourth in a Lingfield handicap and could go well if as effective on turf, but a chance is taken on QUOTELINE DIRECT, who got within half a length of success at Wolverhampton last time and has a better record on turf.

2.75 LE BAYOU (FR); 6.00 REGAL MIRAGE (IRE); WHITWELL; 7.00 WALKONBY; 8.00 BRIARDALE (IRE); SPANTIK; 11.00 AND BETTER OTHERS.

Preview:

LE BAYOU relished the return to turf when coming out third best in a blanket finish at Doncaster last month and a 1lb rise for that neck defeat looks fair. Les Eyre's charge can take this at the main expense of Regal Mirage, who is only 1lb higher than when successful at Beverley last summer but hasn't had a run since October. Walkonby might be better back on the level after a couple of poor efforts over timber, while Whitwell is interesting on his fourth here off 3lb higher last autumn.
