Haven Lady is an obvious contender based on her C&D win in October and her close second at Wolverhampton last week. She is on the same mark and has been in good form, so she is likely to give another good account here. Hashtagmetoo has also been running well lately, finishing third at Wolverhampton last time out, and should be competitive again. Franco Grasso is an interesting runner for his new yard, having run respectably in a handicap at Kempton two months ago, and should be considered for a place.

Among the other runners, Defence Treaty could bounce back to form on Tapeta and is worth monitoring in the betting, while Yakhabar’s fourth at Newcastle last time out puts him in the mix for a place. A Shining Moon returns from a breathing operation and may need the run, while Smart Connection and Bay Of Naples have shown little lately and look up against it.

In this race, Zoology is the clear standout horse. He won impressively on his debut at Yarmouth last September and, although he was well beaten in the Group 1 Middle Park Stakes on his next start, he is back in a much easier race now and should be able to make a winning return. The only concern is the penalty he carries for his debut win.

Kodiman is another horse who has already shown ability, finishing second over C&D in February. He didn’t run up to his best last time out at Newcastle but may be able to bounce back with the addition of a first-time hood.

Of the newcomers, Covey is the one that catches the eye on pedigree. He is a Frankel colt out of a half-sister to the useful sprinter Right Touch and is worth watching in the market.

Overall, my top three horses for this race are Zoology, Kodiman, and Covey. Zoology is the clear favourite and should be hard to beat, while Kodiman and Covey both have shown promise and could be good each-way options if they can improve on their previous performances.

Lumacho is a filly with plenty of speed and a good record on the all-weather, having won three races over 5f last autumn, including one here at Southwell. Although she ended last season with two below-par efforts, the booking of William Buick suggests she is expected to bounce back on her return and she could be a major contender.

Dear Daphne improved in each of her three starts on turf last year and culminated with a close second in a 15-runner Leicester novice over 6f on heavy ground in October. She is bred to handle the surface and makes her handicap debut after a break, so she could be a potential improver and is another to consider.

Shine Honey Shine won a C&D novice on her second start in January and ran creditably on her last two outings, including a fourth of eight on handicap debut at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta) last time out. She is up in trip but is open to improvement and could be in the mix.

Other horses to note include All In The Hips, who won narrowly at Wolverhampton last month but may be vulnerable to less exposed sorts as she has already had 14 starts, and Lady Nagin, who won a C&D maiden in January but pulled too hard on her handicap debut here last time out.

In summary, Lumacho is the top selection for this race, with Dear Daphne and Shine Honey Shine as the main dangers.

In this race, there are several interesting contenders with promising form.

Dayzee has shown good form in her previous races, winning on her second start at Dundalk and making a successful debut for her current yard in a Wolverhampton novice. The extra furlong in this handicap race should suit her and she may still have more to offer.

Double March has also demonstrated her ability with a commendable attitude when winning a 7f maiden here in October. She makes her handicap debut after six months off and the return to this trip should not be a problem for her.

Too Much made a promising start to her career and appeared to appreciate the return to this trip when making a successful handicap debut over C&D last month. She did it well that day and may be up to defying a 5lb rise.

Overall, these three horses stand out as potential winners, but it is worth keeping an eye on Chealamy, who is making her handicap/AW debut and may benefit from the extra furlong. Mountain Song, although runner-up in all three starts earlier in the year, may find dropping in trip is not what she wants.

My top three picks for this race are Dayzee, Double March, and Too Much, with Dayzee having the strongest chance of winning based on her previous form and pedigree.

This is a competitive race with several runners capable of winning. How Bizarre is one to consider as he was narrowly beaten by Cavalluccio last week and now gets a 5lb swing in the weights. He is a front-runner who should have the run of the race and may be hard to pass. Island Of Skye has been consistent in his last two starts and should be involved in the finish. Tom Tulliver is in good form and has run well over this course and distance in recent weeks. He is consistent and should be thereabouts at the finish.

Top 3:

1. How Bizarre
2. Island Of Skye
3. Tom Tulliver

Doctor Mozart has been consistent since the addition of blinkers and he was a creditable third at Wolverhampton last time out, so he has each-way claims in this race. Urban Dandy is a course winner and is in good form, having won a handicap at Newcastle last time out, and should be able to go well again off a 3lb higher mark. Exceed is still unexposed and could get closer with a better run this time after a troubled trip at Newcastle last time out, and is the third selection in this competitive handicap.

In this race, there are a few contenders that could be in with a chance. One More Dream is the standout candidate with three wins this winter, all at Newcastle over 6f, and a respectable fourth at Lingfield last time out. He should be suited by the return to 7f and is expected to be in the mix. Perfect Swiss is another consistent type and is a course winner who shaped better than the bare result when fifth at Newcastle recently. He has each-way claims once again.

Rumnotred has shown promise in previous starts over 7f, including over C&D, and could be capable of better off a fair mark. Ebury ran well last time out over C&D and should be thereabouts again, although his strike rate is a concern. Northbound is also worth a mention, having won over 7f on Tapeta at Newcastle last August, and he is another that has each-way claims.

Eagle Creek has not shown much for his new yard so far but is getting better handicapped and could surprise if he finds improvement. Eton College has struggled for form and is hard to recommend, while Rogue Star and Yellow Bear both need to show more to feature here.

Overall, my top three picks for this race would be One More Dream, Perfect Swiss, and Rumnotred, with One More Dream having the strongest claims to win.
