Has won twice here over 5f, the most recent coming in April, and ran well at Thirsk (6f, good) last time in a race he won the previous year; however, he's now having a rare start over 7f and it isn't sure to suit.

Frequent slow starter who was never involved at Redcar last time but he was placed over C&D (good to firm) last month and he won at Catterick (5f, good) in April; has claims if he can get away on terms, and his penultimate win was in this race last year.

Signed off 2yo season with 6f win on Newcastle AW; thereabouts in all three 6f races this year and there's little between her and Mr Cool on recent C&D form; however, she was struggling to keep up from some way out before coming home strongly and this test may again be on the sharp side.

Verdict

A first-time visor sparked up Without Delay (second choice) when she was narrowly denied over C&D last time, but MISTER SKY BLUE (nap) is preferred. He ran well in a similar event over 6f at Thirsk before another solid effort in a handicap at Beverley. Lanarra and Ridgemaster are shortlisted. [Harry March]
