Won at Hamilton (5f, good) in June and runner-up on next two starts, over this C&D (soft) on the latter occasion; three lesser runs followed but he was bang there when third back on soft ground at Hamilton (5f) yesterday and has to be considered after that revival.

Scored on her only visit here (5f juvenile novice in 2024); good effort on her second start for this yard when third of 21 at York (6f, good to firm; probably stays this trip) in July; weakened on soft ground four weeks ago but she's not dismissed attempting 7f again from this career-low mark.

Hold-up performer who added to his C&D win last month when shading a close finish at Ayr (5f, good) on Monday; this tricky customer isn't obviously well treated under a 4lb penalty and has yet to win back to back in his 44-race career.

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Jim Goldie

No stranger to the Ayr winners' enclosure, winning five at this track (5f-7f), including this race two years ago; has struggled for form in two 5f spins at Musselburgh this year, which makes him hard to fancy; on the plus side, the handicapper is beginning to give him a chance.

No problem with conditions and he followed a close second over C&D by winning an amateur rider handicap at Catterick (5f, good) by daylight last week; 5lb higher today but he is likely to go up more than that when reassessed; key player from stall 1.
