ISSAR D’AIRY (3.00 Newbury, nap)
Gary Moore’s son of Sinndar has not put a foot wrong since switching to fences with two wins around here. His chase debut saw him score by more than four lengths before he got up on the line last time. This step up in trip looks a wise move and the handicapper hasn’t gone mad with a 6lb rise in the weights.
SPARTAN ARMY (3.47 Lingfield, nb)
He has won both starts since switching back to the all-weather. The first of those came over this course and distance before he matched that effort at Southwell six days ago. Alan King’s stayer can strike again under a 5lb penalty with Rossa Ryan on board.
BATAL DUBAI (3.12 Lingfield, treble)
Was just pipped at Kempton after good efforts at Newcastle and Chelmsford. He’s best over this trip and can strike again from the same handicap mark.
DEMNAT (4.10 Newbury)
Came back from almost three years off to score on UK debut for Venetia Williams at Ludlow. He looks open to lots of improvement and can defy a 10lb rise in the weights.
