Jessie Lightfoot made it two wins out of three since rejoining us this year with a nice victory at Stratford. She seems to be handling the rises in her mark very well and we're hopeful she can make it three from four today.

Silastar won almost to the day a year ago at Leicester. He's done nothing in three runs this year to suggest he's anywhere near another win, but this is a pretty ordinary contest.

Cindysox ran promisingly on her first racecourse start in a bumper in October 2022. Unfortunately, she picked up an injury that day and was off the course until running well in 3rd on her hurdles debut last month. She is sure to improve greatly from that, and if she can handle the soft ground, she…

Mart ended a sequence of 2nd places with an emphatic win, returned to turf at Newmarket. Now back at Lingfield's AW track where he's run plenty of good races, we have to be hopeful of a follow-up.

Rockymountainway was unlucky last time out where a wide draw scuppered her chances. She has lots of speed so six furlongs shouldn't be a problem and she should handle the track. She can run well today.

Shadowofyoursmile ran well at Donny on horrendous ground. Although I think she wants some cut, that was probably too soft and she should enjoy today's conditions far more. The track is ideal and we have a top jockey booked,

Call Off The Dogs had been gradually coming back to form and he announced it with a six-length win in a four-horse race over 2m2f here a couple of weeks back. The 6lb rise should not inconvenience him, nor should the slightly longer trip. Very hopeful.

Kodi Lion was a decent winner of an average race at Catterick last time. He loves soft ground and this looked the obvious place for him after that. He is in good order at home and can go well today.

Way To Dubai was a touch disappointing last time but that was off the back of a break and I think the ground was plenty quick enough. He should love the going today and will come on for that run. Cheek-pieces should help him too.

Sensorium is a nice 2yo and I think he can run well. He's been working nicely at home and we're hoping to get him to Royal Ascot. Hopeful.

Gordon Grey keeps bumping into one, but on paper, this appears to be easier than some races he's contested. Hopefully, he can get his head in front for a much-deserved victory.

Love You Darling ran well at Goodwood on her return from her winter break. She seems in good form at home and hopefully, she will appreciate a step up in trip. Her pedigree says it should suit her well.

Queen's Company is running into form again now and racing over her favourite CD. She won't mind some cut in the ground and should have a good each-way chance.

We run two juveniles first time in this restricted novice race. The market isn't giving too many clues about anything including our pair. Lightning Force has the better draw and that might help him come out on top in our private battle. Place chances.

Debut bumper winner Dusky Days never got his head in front over hurdles although placed on numerous occasions. A good 3rd on chase debut last November he disappointed on soft ground last time out on Boxing Day. We've given him a break since and hopefully, he will pay his way as a summer jumper. Should…

Gorak has been a star for my yard and ran a cracker last time out at Newmarket. He should have come on plenty for that run and is suited to the track. He can go well again.

I know Mart keeps getting beaten into 2nd but I've no doubts about his honesty. It will be interesting to see him him running close to home and getting him back on turf. He deserves to win one - maybe today's the day.

Call Off The Dogs came back in February after a two-year break and has been improving steadily. He has yet to finish in the first three in those runs, but should manage it today.

Voodoo Ray makes a rare trip away from Brighton. He's won his last two with increasing ease and it would be no surprise if he makes this away day a winning one.
