1st	1	8	Alvin (G) FAV Won 5f novice at Wolverhampton in February and quickly resumed progress when unlucky third in handicap at Lingfield. Fancied to make amends off similar mark.	418314	Darragh Keenan George Scott	3	61.7kg	3.75 11/4
7th	2	3	Comic Strip (G) Progressive 2-y-o who won first 2 starts in nurseries. Found only one too good in hat-trick bid at Newcastle and resumed with decent third at Southwell 16 days ago. Must be respected on turf debut.	12-3755	Jack Callan S & E Crisford	3	61.7kg	5 4/1
8th	3	1	Saucy Jane (F) Beverley maiden winner last year who shaped well first 2 starts this season but latest effort at Southwell was rather underwhelming.	426161	Rob Hornby Jack Morland	3	59.9kg	6.50 11/2
2nd	4	9	Angel Numbers (F) Debut winner who showed improved form after 4 months off when second at Wolverhampton but was back to racing freely when below par there 4 weeks ago.	277411	Rossa Ryan Dr R Newland & J Insole	3	59.4kg	6.50 11/2
9th	5	2	Alkuwarrior (G) Maiden winner at Yarmouth a year ago but generally struggled after, leaving Des Donovan (13,000 gns) prior to latest run. Off 8 months.	9-90157	Gina Mangan C Mason	3	58.5kg	41 40/1
3rd	6	4	Artista (F) Won 5f Chelmsford nursery last summer but has found life tougher since, only fourth of 8 at Southwell last time despite running right up to her best.	543507	Jason Watson Ollie Sangster	3	58.5kg	7.50 13/2
—	7	5	Duskaura (F) Turf maiden winner for Archie Watson last season but has failed to fire in 3 all-weather handicaps for this yard this year.	466471	Jack Doughty A W Carroll	3	58.1kg	21 20/1
4th	8	10	London Is Blue (G) Improved to win back-to-back nurseries at Brighton last summer but never involved back on the all-weather final start. Entitled to be sharper for this after 6 months off.	110-420	Finley Marsh R M H Cowell	3	58.1kg	17 16/1
6th	9	6	Guernsey Angel (F) Showed a good attitude from the front when winning twice last year, though may need further respite from the handicapper judged on her 3 runs since.	456625	P Cosgrave P D Evans	3	58.1kg	13 12/1
5th	10	7	Solar Invincible (G) P Got off the mark in determined fashion at Chelmsford in December and in good nick since, showing further progress when resuming winning ways over C&D 3 weeks ago. Player.	415422	Lewis Edmunds R A Teal	3	55.3kg	9.50 17/2
