12 start this one at Lingfield on Monday afternoon. Timeform tell us about their chances.
In what looks a competitive event, Billberry should make a bold bid to add to his previous course-and-distance win having shaped like a sure-fire future winner on his comeback run, probably at the expense of Balata. Fiefdom should also get involved if getting the strong pace he needs at this trip.
Jake The Snake Prolific in claimers, winning 4 times on polytrack at up to 8f (including here). Well treated back in a handicap if latest turf run ignored, but has to overcome widest draw.
I Confess Back to best over 7f/8f in turf/AW handicaps here last month, but 4 lb higher than last winning mark and has to put a poor recent run behind him.
Dichoh Won 3 of 4 starts in claimers this year (including here) for different yards. No show in handicap for Rae Guest last time and hard to know what to expect for another different trainer here.
Fiefdom Fairly useful handicapper when in the mood, but poor wins-to-runs ratio. Creditable efforts last 2 starts and likely to get involved if things drop right.
Highland Harvest Free-going sort who was successful twice over 8f here in early 2008. More signs of encouragement third start back following a year on the sidelines last time and claims if building on that.
Yankee Storm Twice successful off lower marks on the AW in the first half of 2008 and mainly creditable efforts afterwards. Wouldn't rule out if fit enough on return for new stable.
Carmenero Consistent performer who is entitled to get competitive off this mark, but losing sequence stretched to 26 last time and patience more than worn thin with him.
Singleb In good form on AW since joining Gay Kelleway, winning 3 times. Not given a hard time on return from a short break last time, but never won off a mark this high.
Balata Reliable sort who ran a cracker on return from a 4-month break over 7f on turf here recently, and entitled to make presence felt off the same mark here.
Greystoke Prince Win and a couple of good efforts over 7f at Kempton to his name in 2008 but shown very little since and hard to make a case for in present fettle.
Billberry Better on AW than turf, winning twice over 7f in 2008 (including here). Strong finishing third after being held up in his run over 8f here on return and primed for a bold show now.
Beau Jazz Little form since 2006 and 14 lb out of the weights here.
