ALPHONSE LE GRANDE (2) is just 1.1lb higher than when landing a 1m2 3/4f handicap here November 2022. Largely campaigned with hurdles since but looked in good condition when fifth over course and distance last month. Chance. GOLDEN SANDBANKS (1) was a track and trip winner in November. Not sighted since. The 4.4lb rise in the ratings looks manageable. Key player. Long-term maiden BELIEVE IN SCIENCE (3) receives a tricky draw. Capable of having an impact from this mark. GRACESOLUTION (4) is another drawn wider than ideal. Recent form may bring her into the equation.
