Race Summary: A host in with chances but GASMAN has been gelded/switched to the in-form Charlie Hills yard since last seen so he makes plenty of appeal having just a second start on the turf. The main threat may come from Ectocross, who left previous efforts well behind on return/handicap bow when scoring at Lingfield in March and he can continue his good run of form. Think Champagne and Fullforward round off the shortlist.

Stewards

Note: JOHN BETJEMAN: Following its run on 21/4/2023 it was reported that the horse hung badly left-handed.

BIG JIMBO: Following its run on 10/4/2023 it was reported that the horse hung both ways

SUGAR CANDIE: Following its run on 28/11/2022 it was reported that the horse was never travelling.

Betting Forecast: 9-2 John Betjeman (GB), 6-1 Where’s Tom (GB), 13-2 Big Jimbo (GB), 7-1 Sugar Candie (GB), 15-2 Winklevi (FR), 10-1 Fighting Poet (IRE), 14-1 Jersey Gift (IRE), Pledge of Peace (IRE), 16-1 Fred Bear (IRE), 25-1 Proud Warrior (IRE)

Race Summary: A case can be made for lots of these so at the likely odds it is worth siding with SUGAR CANDIE, who had looked on the up until finishng well held at Wolverhampton after an absence and can bounce back in style with Oisin Murphy now up Fighting Poet didn’t enjoy the rub of the green when sixth at Southwell last time and could emerge as the chief threat, with Chelmsford-second Winklevi another who needs considering in a very open handicap
