FEDERATED (6) is back at the races for the first time since January 23. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 2040m at this track. Comes here with definite claims. MIDNIGHT LION (2) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 1.3 lengths over 2040m at this track. That continued the solid form this campaign, with four wins and three minor placings from eight outings. Can measure up again. MR MISTOFFELEES (5) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest effort a fourth beaten 1.5 lengths over 1600m at Southwell All Weather. Deserves to break through and is a leading hope again. URBAN ROAD (1) turned in a solid run last time when boxing on to finish third at Wolverhampton. Boasts three wins at the distance and is among the each way hopes.
