Blue Jay Way

9st 2lb

J: Ethan Tindall

T: John David Riches

Won the corresponding event 12 months ago off a 1lb higher mark; arrived on the back of a recent win on that occasion whereas today he has been off since a modest turf run 113 days ago; hooded for the first time today.

Evocative Spark

9st 6lb

J: Ethan Tindall

T: John David Riches

Good course record, with four wins (three at 7f) and a second from eight starts; caught wide when he ran poorly over C&D last month but it was a step back in the right direction when fifth at Thirsk a fortnight ago, and he's down to the mark he won a 6f course handicap from in May; draw not overly helpful but he's considered.

J: Ethan Tindall

T: John David Riches

Back to winning ways at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in June and has continued in good nick, third of 12 in 6f Pontefract handicap nine days ago; ought to be in the shake-up again.

Rain Cap

J: Callum Shepherd

T: John David Riches

All eight wins have been on turf; down to an attractive mark but his AW record of 0-19 is offputting.

9st 7lb

J: Joe Bradnam

T: John David Riches

Won at Wolverhampton in June and he's also had some close calls this season including at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) 12 days ago; now drops back in trip but he was only just caught after setting a strong pace last time and is a key player off unchanged mark.

9/2
