Eight go to post for this event over just shy of a mile-and-a-quarter Commercial Catering Contracts Handicap. Timeform talk us through their individual chances.

Crosoe Cusan ended 2008 in good form, running well in defeat on either side of a win in three starts here. He is yet to fire this time round but is down in class here. Fast ground and longer trip not ideal.

Shake On It tends to not find much in a finish and was below par when last seen. He has changed stable since, but has something to prove for now.

Sinbad The Sailor was a winner off a higher mark at Doncaster last summer and showed more encouragement at Newbury last time. This looks competitive and interesting with Seb Sanders now booked.

Tevez Won a mile maiden at Southwell for Mark Tompkins early in 2008 but not been as good since, racing lazily at Southwell when last seen. He is down in grade now, but trip is an unknown.

Mick Is Back should find conditions no problem. He was a fair second here last time and Ryan Moore is booked now. Place claims in a weak event.

Imperium is a durable if low-level handicapper who has revealed surprising stamina this season, winning over a mile-and-a-half in January. His wins are few and far between otherwise, however.

Goose Green Came out of the wilderness to score readily here last time and unlike most of these, comes here in form. Has a 7-lb higher mark to contend with but there's more to recommend about him than most.

Ubiquitous is a poor and inconsistent maiden who is hard to make a pressing case for.
