Timeform examine each runner in a five-furlong handicap at Redcar...

Last Sovereign enjoyed a productive 2012, winning 4 times. Just as good this year prior to lesser effort after blowing the start at Chester last time, so no surprise if he bounced back.

Bedloe's Island won this last year and got back on the scoreboard on his second try for new yard at Thirsk (5f) this month. Found wanting off revised mark at York last week, but this less competitive.

Another Wise Kid signed off for 2012 with a win at Ayr (5f) in October. Solid efforts all 3 comback outings this year, and no reason to think he won't be on the premises once more.

Jack Luey is a tough and consistent sprinter who deservedly regained winning thread at Hamilton in September. Goood fourth when returning at Thirsk on Saturday, so one to consider if turned out again quickly.

Medici Time has run poorly since cashing in off reduced mark at Newmarket (6f) in August, failing to beat a rival when reappearing at Doncaster last month, and something to prove for the time being.

Verinco struggled to recapture best last year. Fared no better switched to AW in January, and others have less to prove now returning to turf after another break.

Partner added 2 more wins to tally in 2012, however, not the most reliable, and others more persuasive in refitted blinkers following a low-key return at Newcastle last month.

Rylee Mooch was generally consistent during a successful campaign on AW over the winter. Dead-heated for second on turf return at Newmarket (5f) last week, and fair chance he will be in the shake-up again.

Willbeme was progressive when landing a brace of 6f handicaps in August. Beaten off this mark when last seen in September, though, and needs to prove as effective over 5f on return.

Cocktail Charlie managed to get competitive off similar marks on occasions last year, but more required in order to end the drought on reappearance.

Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Rylee Mooch
2. Bedloe's Island
3. Last Sovereign

Timeform View: Rylee Mooch was back to his very best when collared late at Newmarket last week, and may prove too strong for last year's winner Bedloe's Island. Last Sovereign and Jack Luey are others that enter calculations.
