LIVIN ON LUCO produced a promising first effort under Rules when staying on for second in a C&D maiden 16 days ago, and with progress anticipated, he gets the nod to go one place better.

MR GREY SKY resumed with a cosy success at Huntingdon and looks the way to go with more progress on the cards from Kim Bailey’s son of Fame And Glory. Fencing-newcomer Romancero Le Dun has plenty to offer in this sphere and rates a big threat, with New Found Fame also in the picture provided he is none the worse for his recent Huntingdon fall.

JUST OVER LAND came from further back than ideal when third here on return and is bred to prove better than his current mark of 100, so is fancied to get off the mark at the chief expense of Secret Plan, who rates as a likely improver now handicapping.

LAZY SUNDAY ran well on her recent Ffos Las reappearance and is by far the most solid option here, although a market move for the returning Penny Mallow would make her a possible threat given the excellent form of the Venetia Williams stable. 1-2-3: 1.LAZY SUNDAY 2.PENNY MALLOW (FR) 3.MAD ABOUT SALLY (IRE) KEY colours

RACE SUMMARY The vote goes to DEAR RALPHY, who produced by far his best effort yet when hitting the crossbar off this mark at Plumpton on Monday and, provided this doesn’t come too soon, a reproduction of that would put him firmly in the picture. Last year’s winner Bobo Mac should strip fitter following his reappearance spin at Warwick and he is feared most ahead of To Be Sure and the in-form Ben Lilly. 1-2-3: 1.DEAR RALPHY (IRE) 2.BOBO MAC (IRE) 3.TO BE SURE KEY colours

8 11-13

TIMEFORM VIEW Useful 7-time Flat winner who has quickly struck up a good partnership with Gearoid Harney, making it 2-3 under Harney with a narrow success at Wincanton (24.7f, soft) last month. 3lb rise fair enough and he’s a strong candidate here. TFRHHHII BHA108

TIMEFORM VIEWDual winner for Tizzard stable in 2022 and positive enough start for this yard when runner-up at Huntingdon in April. However, reappearance effort over fences left much to be desired and needs to bounce back returned to hurdles in ﬁrst-time blinkers, albeit he was second in this race last year. TFRHHHII BHA107

TIMEFORM VIEWBack to form from out of the blue when taking advantage of a reduced mark in a Ffos Las handicap chase (3m, soft) in April.

TIMEFORM VIEWVeteran who was useful at his best and conﬁrmed he still has lots to offer when seeing off Lanspark to win this race 12 months ago. Now 9lb below that winning mark and should come on for this recent reappearance spin at Warwick, so there’s certainly cause for optimism. TFRHHHHI BHA102

TIMEFORM VIEWFared better than previously over fences when third here in March and, in ﬁrst-time blinkers, backed up that effort when winning at Fontwell the following month. Ran poorly in a handicap chase on return at Taunton last week, though, and he’s opposable back in this sphere. Blinkers reﬁtted. TFRHHIII BHA98 (-1)
