Verdict

A competitive low-grade handicap may go the way of interesting stable debutant JUST KING HIGH. Last-time-out winner Shades of May should go well again, with Gundogan worth considering on return to this course.

8	Having fallen a long way in the weights, confirmed himself back in form when runner-up at Wolverhampton on final start for Thomas Faulkner, and could go one better returning to scene of his sole previous success on stable debut. 1st Pick 8 Just King High (Ire) Jockey: William Carver Trainer: Ross Burdon J: William Carver T: Ross Burdon	100	-	-	-	13%	7/1

7	Landed her second Chelmsford success in 3 starts when getting first-run on well-backed favourite last time, and while up 4 lb, he contests a slightly lower grade here. 2nd Pick 7 Shades Of May Jockey: Rose Dawes Trainer: Mark Usher J: Rose Dawes T: Mark Usher	99	-	-	-	20%	4/1

5	Has proven expensive to follow of late, extending on a long losing run when (13/8) fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (7f) latest. Best recent form has come at this track, though, and could be worth another chance. 3rd Pick 5 Gundogan Jockey: Myla Coppins Trainer: Tony Carroll J: Myla Coppins T: Tony Carroll	97	-	-	-	12%	8/1
