Eyecatcher

Cairdeas (6.15 Newcastle)

William Haggas's gelding fluffed the start and did well to grab third on last month's return, having had to circle the field. Entitled to be sharper now and this extra furlong will suit.

The Punt nap

Grand Karat (5.45 Newcastle)

Got his career back on track last year after being gelded, latterly beating a well-treated sort and recording a Racing Post Rating of 96 in October. Should step forward from reappearance at Kempton last month and mark of 88 looks workable for Harry Charlton.

Dark horse

Misunderstood (3.25 Longchamp)
