I think Nusa Dua has improved since last year - she will need to have! It's difficult for her as she's blind in her left eye and struggles with confidence as she isn't aware of horses coming up on that side. She could go well here but may probably get a little tired as it's…

This is a trappy race but Sundayinmay is in good form and she likes Lingfield's all-weather. She has definitely strengthened over the winter and this looks a good opportunity.

Mrs Grimley is a lovely horse who has come over from Ireland after running a good second in a decent bumper. She has been doing nice work and we are hopeful she can go very close today.

After some near-misses Nazwa finally got his head over the line last time. That would have brought him confidence going into this two-horse affair where the Skelton horse will be favourite. Now he's won, Nazwa can give him plenty to think about.

Useful in bumpers, Zucayan is progressing steadily over hurdles and ran his best race yet last time. If he maintains the improvement he should go close in this handicap today.

Accidental Rebel had some decent form when based with Henry De Bromhead in Ireland. He has been off for ten months before making this stable debut. It's not a deep race and we think he has possibilities.

Uccello, a son of Frankel, finally seems to be getting the idea of racing. A creditable fourth the last twice, including around here two runs back, he has a good draw. If he continues the progress he would represent our best chance of the day.

Fiftyshadesresdev didn't run too badly on reappearance over a mile but we're dropping him back a furlong as his sire Johnny Barnes was basically a sprinter. He has a decent draw but in a big field it would not be a shock if he proved to be a little over-faced.

Shantou Express ran well last time in a very competitive three-mile handicap hurdle at Haydock. A repeat of that run must put him in with a great chance in what looks virtually a two-horse affair on paper..

Lawful Command put up a determined display last time to win over course and distance. He is up 3lb for that but he remains in great form and I fancy him for the follow-up.

This is mighty competitive and Ajero, on his second run on the flat, will do well to be placed. He will be one for handicaps later so he has to run here on his way to qualifying.

Tango Tonight put in a much-improved display behind a Gosden odds-on shot last time. She has a nice draw and if she finds a little more on that she is probably the one to beat today.

Year Of The Dragon never got involved at Epsom when he was  inconvenienced by another horse in the first part of the race. His best form is around here and if Luke Morris can get him away and go forward from his wide draw he should go close. He is certainly in great form at…

Heart Of Soul probably should have won at Chester when he came out fourth in a close finish to the apprentices' race on the final day. That view was given credibility when he turned out 48 hours later at Hamilton and won easily. He remains in great form and has every chance of following up.

Elham Valley was expected to do well last season after his good juvenile campaign but he never looked like winning a race and has dropped a long way in the handicap. There were more positives to draw from his run here last month and if he did get back to his old form he would…

The dig in the ground will help Kildrum but he will need to offer a good deal more than his recent paceless runs to persuade us to keep him for another season. The likelihood is that he might be elsewhere next time - unless he shows us otherwise tonight!

Amzaan is bred to be a top performer but I'm not sure she puts everything in. The visors are going on for today but I think until I can trust her fully it's a case of best watched.

Gatwick Kitten has been bought for Sophie Smith to ride in amateur races and that will be his next target after today. We're still finding out about him, but this ex-Dermot Weld sprinter, while still a maiden clearly has speed and a little ability. We'll see where we go.

Timberman did well over hurdles and it will be interesting to see how he copes with fences.The Nicholls horse is obviously the one to beat, already a chase winner and with a considerably higher hurdles mark than Timberman. We're probably booked for second.
