A close third over this trip at Lingfield latest when cheekpieces were applied for the first time, there should be more to come from the son of Zoffany and a bold bid is expected. The wellbred Red Desert should have improved for his debut experience at Wolverhampton and course scorer The Meter is another to note.

Pacific Salt's recent form reads well and he must enter calculations, while chances are also given to Philamundo, who sports firsttime blinkers, and Classic Charm, who has twice placed over C&D.

Add to that he's still open to plenty of improvement and represents leading connections, he is expected to prove popular. Glory of Paris wasn't winning out of turn over C&D latest and heads the list of dangers from Glenn Coco. Long Handicap: Something Lucky 8 1 ATR VERDICT: Gracious John is the class horse in the race and he performed well on his only previous start at this track, while Tropics is 35 here (24 over C&D) and is another to take seriously. Teruntum Star wouldn't be a surprise winner judged on his recent form but VERNE CASTLE, who doesn't know how to run badly, gets the nod. He has a nice racing weight under a 5lb claimer and the fivetime trackandtrip scorer has been dropped 1lb for what was a creditable effort behind Corinthia Knight at Lingfield last time.

Shamshon was unable to land a blow from off the pace at Wolverhampton last time but could be seen to better effect here if granted a stronger gallop to chase down.

Foreign Legion has place claims if building on his Lingfield fourth four days ago and he has cheekpieces refitted, while Black Hambleton, who steps up in trip after finding 6f on the sharp side at Newcastle latest, could also feasibly take a hand. 52 51 Top Tip: MR POTTER (7) Watch out for: FOREIGN LEGION (10)

Your Band has been knocking hard on the door lately and could feasibly step up on his 1m4f Wolverhampton second last time now granted a stiffer test.

ATR VERDICT: Hard Toffee looked on good terms with himself when striking over C&D three weeks ago and should remain competitive off this 2lb higher mark. For win purposes, however, preference is for MANS NOT TROT, who struck over 1m here in November and kept on in the finish when runnerup over 1m at Southwell latest, suggesting this stiffer test may suit. The pick of the remainder may be Herm, who was narrowly beaten off this mark at Lingfield in November. Top Tip: MANS NOT TROT (8) Watch out for: HARD TOFFEE (7) 2019 At The Races. All Rights Reserved.
