Despitestilllookingashaderougharoundtheedges,BEELZEBUBbuiltonhisChelmsfordnovicesuccess when following up on his handicap bow at Newcastle earlier this month. It’s likely that there’s better to come from this son of Dark Angel and he shaped well on his sole previous turf start when making his debut at Newbury in October. Kessaar Power is a much-respected main danger on the back of his all-the-way win at Chelmsford, while Fox Master also needs considering now handicapping

INTERGALACTICAT showed enough in maiden/novice company on the all-weather to suggest that this opening mark will be within reach, particularly now that he is faced with a stiffer test The fact that his yard has been among the winners of late also augurs well. Smooth Ryder was turned over when odds on at Chelmsford recently but is likely to make a bold bid back down in trip here, while Burnish, who shapes as though this step up in distance could be what he needs, merits respect, too.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: GUSTAV GRAVES trained by D Shaw, Sproxton, 172 miles.
HAN SOLO BERGER isn’t the easiest to predict but he looked on good terms with himself when making a winning reappearance at Southwell earlier this month. The 8-y-o remains 3lb below the mark off which he scored over this C&D last summer and earns the vote ahead of Gustav Graves. If recent all-weather winners Bang On The Bell and Bill Plumb are able to continue the good work back on turf they should also be in the shake-up, with the former the more appealingly treated of the two.
