THE TIMEFORM VIEW

SHALADAR was nailed in the shadow of the post at Leicester recently and a reproduction of that effort would probably suffice That said, Vondelpark improved on his first start since being gelded when landing a selling handicap at Thirsk and he has to be respected. Crown Princess is another to consider back down in trip here, while a back-to-form Award Dancer would also be a threat.

THE TIMEFORM VIEW

Though BELL SHOT didn’t show much in a couple of runs in Bahrain in January, he makes his debut for the Robert Cowell yard on an attractive mark and will have every chance if reproducing something akin to his peak 2022 form. Tinto is another who figures on a workable mark and he rates the main danger ahead of Roundhay Park and Ventura Express
