Verdict

STONEACRE JOE gave a long odds-on favourite something of a race at Ayr earlier this month and could have even more to offer now handicapping. He gets the vote over Woolisle and the returning From The Hip, who is seeking a hat-trick.

4	Belatedly off the mark in 9-runner nursery at Nottingham (5f, soft) on final outing last season, helped by the strong pace and her position on the stand rail. Reappears from 7 lb higher and should be suited by this return to 6f. 2nd Pick 4 Woolisle Jockey: Cieren Fallon Trainer: Heather Main J: Cieren Fallon T: Heather Main	94	-	-	-	29%	5/2

5	Got off the mark in 11-runner maiden at Chelmsford in November before following up in 7-runner nursery at Kempton (6f) the following month, benefiting from having a brisk gallop to chase to lead near finish. Only 2 lb higher for his return and this is just his second turf start. 3rd Pick 5 From The Hip Jockey: Tyler Heard Trainer: Mark Usher J: Tyler Heard T: Mark Usher	94	-	-	-	19%	9/2
