NICKELFORCE (1.40 Ludlow, nap).

He was a big improver on chase debut for trainer Ben Case at Stratford last time. He jumped well and tanked along in winning by five lengths so a 6lb rise looks fair.

TEMPER TRAP (5.00 Nottingham, nb)

Has won his past two in testing conditions. He wasn’t stopping at the end of seven furlongs at Redcar last time so this mile holds no fears. Tim Easterby’s hope can land the hat-trick under 4lb penalty.

LOVE DYNASTY (2.03 Nottingham, treble)

Stormed through the mud to score on debut at Newmarket. He’s been off a year since that effort but he looked a hot prospect for William Haggas.

OPERA KING (4.30 Ludlow)

Completes the Lucky 15. He went close at Market Rasen last month and a 3lb rise in the weights isn’t a problem.
