Keep An Eye On It
Cases can be made for a few of these but KEEP AN EYE ON IT continues to go from strength to strength and with the booking of Tom Marquand catching the eye, he's fancied to get off the mark at the expense of Masaban, who has made a positive start for current connections and remains capable of better still. Last-time-out winner Ravishing Beauty rounds off the shortlist.

Promising ex-Irish gelding who was much improved when landing big gamble on handicap debut at Ripon (1m) early last month. All the rage in the betting but unable to follow up when third of 14 at Doncaster (1m, good) 8 days later and he remains with potential.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosDoncaster7f 213yGood to SoftFlat3/14Ripon1mGoodFlat1/7Doncaster6f 2yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat6/14Dundalk1mStandardFlat8/12Galway7fYieldingFlat5/8- 1(4)Amidst The ChaosJ: Rowan ScottE: Nigel Tinkler57-9342Âge 47/29/24/1

Back-to-back winner at Doncaster/Musselburgh last summer. Better than bare result first 3 starts this season and confirmed himself in top form when second of 8 at latter track (9f, good to firm) just over a fortnight ago. First-time cheekpieces applied to try eke out that bit extra.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosMusselburgh1m 208yGoodFlat2/8Beverley1m 100yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat4/13Ripon1mGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat3/10Thirsk7f 218yGoodFlat9/13Southwell1m 4f 14yStandardFlat7/8- 4(5)Mount KingJ: David AllanE: Tim Easterby673-788Âge 65/15/111/2

Three-time C&D winner, including twice around this time last year. Gradually working his way back this year but was below-par over C&D last month. 3 lb below last winning mark now but leap of faith needed to get involved.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosPontefract1m 6yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Flat8/10Wetherby1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat8/12Pontefract1m 6yGood to SoftFlat7/9Newmarket (rowley)1mGoodFlat3/11Redcar7f 219yGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat7/13- 2(1)Ravishing BeautyJ: P.

Won handicaps over C&D and Nottingham last summer but form tailed off in the autumn. Gradually working her way back this year and resumed winning ways in 9-runner event at Carlisle (1m, good to soft) just under a fortnight ago. 3 lb nudge fair so folly to ignore.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosCarlisle7f 173ySoftFlat1/9Thirsk7f 218yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat7/12Ripon1mGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat8/10Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat3/6Thirsk7f 218ySoftFlat7/11- 5(3)Thats My Boy LukeJ: Jason HartE: Tim Easterby158-470Âge 510/110/111/1

Pair of 1m Ripon wins last year but seemingly going the wrong way this season, last of 11 at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) most recently.

Finally off the mark in maiden company at Chelmsford over 1m in January and best effort since when runner up at Lingfield in February. Hasn't scaled same heights all 4 starts since the cheekpieces went on so best watched for now.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosKempton Park1mStandard / SlowFlat9/14Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat7/13Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat9/12Chelmsford City1m 2fStandardFlat4/6Lingfield Park1m 1yStandardFlat2/8- 8(8)Kiss For An AngelJ: Barry McHughE: Richard & Peter Fahey2552-90Âge 333/133/140/1

Went very close on 7f Southwell handicap debut in April and progressed again stepped up to 1m in stronger company when third of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (1m, good) 10 weeks ago.
