8/1
Left Simon Crisford for 50,000gns in November 2017, initially continuing to run well for this trainer (1m Lingfield winner in January); not quite at that level of form since his return from a break, but does drop down from Class 2 company latest.

Age: 6|  Weight: 10-1| T: S C Williams| OR:  91| D
33/1
16L winner at Yarmouth in June 2017 (1m, good to soft), but well beaten on both subsequent starts in this grade (Class 3); off since September 2017, so it'll represent a fine training performance is he proves to be the solution.

20/1
Kept good form on the AW over the winter and carried that over into the first few weeks of the turf season with back-to-back 7f wins at Doncaster and Catterick (with cut); vulnerable off this mark in this grade on first run over 1m.

Age: 5|  Weight: 9-12| T: S C Williams| OR:  88| CD
10/1
AW specialist (3 from 7) and stablemate of Intrude; well beaten on return from a break on turf at Epsom latest, but better judged on his earlier Class 3 C&D win from a 4lb lower mark.

12/1
6lb above her last winning AW mark (1m Class 4 at Newcastle in February), but has came up short in Class 3 races since and races from a stiff looking perch from the widest draw in stall number 14.

Glory Awaitsb16
Age: 8|  Weight: 9-6| T: D M Simcock| OR:  82| CD
14/1
C&D winner from a 2lb lower mark in March, and whilst generally running to a solid level of form since (regularly finishing just outside of the places), looks likely to come up short again despite an obvious affinity with Chelmsford.

25/1
50% AW strike rate (2 from 4), but now 10lb higher than when a ready 3¾L 7f winner here in March and inconsistent on turf since (including a couple of rather dismal efforts); trainer doubly represented.

Sir Hamilton63
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-4| T: D P Quinn| OR:  89| CD
12/1
Sights lowered (ran in the Group 3 Craven Stakes on his penultimate start) and switched back to the AW from a mark which is 2lb above when finishing a short-head second to Book Of Dreams over C&D in March; AW record: 1,1,4,2.

Book of Dreams35

20/1
Gradually lost his way since a fine start to the season which included a C&D Class 4 win (beat Sir Hamilton by a short-head); might appreciate the drop in grade, but still 3lb above his last winning mark; trainer doubly represented.

Kenstonep23
Age: 5|  Weight: 9-3| T: A Wintle| OR:  79| CD
14/1
Easing mark helpful and is a two-time course winner, yet still 10lb above his Class 5 C&D win in March 2017 and although a dual turf winner since then, he needs to produce more than he has done so far in 2018.

Executive Forcep16

33/1
Won just once in 16 starts (6f soft, Newbury) and that was on his racecourse debut way back in September 2016; 0 from 4 on the AW (last twice over C&D), so hard to enthuse over despite a falling mark.

The Eagle's Nest184
Age: 4|  Weight: 8-13| T: Rae Guest| OR:  75| CDWS
33/1
Left Richard Fahey for 28,000gns after winning at Newcastle (1m2f) in October 2017, and followed up on stable debut over C&D in December; just 2lb higher here making his first start since early January after undergoing wind surgery.

Maypole24
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-12| T: R Hannon| OR:  83| BF| D
3/1
Stablemate of Bullingdon and is a similar type (an improving 3yo); twice a winner over this kind of trip including on Tapeta at Wolverhampton; he's now 5lb above his last winning mark; enjoys racing prominently.

Forecasts

Maypole (3/1), Bullingdon (4/1), Cliffs Of Capri (8/1), Able Jack (10/1), Sir Hamilton (12/1), Ifubelieveindreams (12/1), Glory Awaits (14/1), Kenstone (14/1), Book of Dreams (20/1), Right Action (20/1), Aquarium (25/1), The Eagle's Nest (33/1), Executive Force (33/1), Intrude (33/1)

Verdict

A decent prize, which has drawn the competitive field that it deserves. Richard Hannon looks to have targeted this race with a pair of improving three-year-old's, with both Maypole and BULLINGDON potential major players. The former will surely help to force the pace and that's a difficult task against some battle-hardened handicappers with previous C&D winning form, so the Pat Dobbs ridden Bullingdon makes more appeal. He's made an encouraging start to his career (C&D winner), and he went down fighting in a three-way tussle with Ulshaw Bridge and the luckless Al Jellaby in a strong race at Doncaster last week.
