2-6 over C&D; ended a 17-race losing run at Chester (7f, good) last month and only beaten just over 2l into fourth of eight at Catterick (7f, good to firm) ten days ago; shouldn't have an issue with the return to this trip and shortlisted.

Scrambled home in a 5f handicap at Hamilton in May and has finished third in two of his three starts since, the latest over C&D last month; this is his first Class 6 run since the Hamilton win and he needs taking seriously.

Won over C&D last month and placed on next four starts prior to winning over C&D last Saturday; it was an apprentice handicap last time, so he escapes a penalty today; solid contender.

Just one win from 25 starts but that came over C&D last month and he's been placed here in all four subsequent runs, including a close third over 7f last week; on same mark on this drop back in trip and he's a key player.

Off the mark for the season when making all at Pontefract last time (6f, good); his other five wins have all been over 7f (two sound runs on both C&D starts); well drawn; a possible.

Losing run is mounting up but he shaped well from the front over C&D (good) eight days ago, eventually tying up having kicked clear too soon in hindsight, beaten only 2l; big chance off same mark with Ethan Tindall taking off a bonus 5lb, provided his energy is used better.

Faded over C&D on his yard debut following a break and has been kept to 6f since, improving for the fitting of cheekpieces when winning at Ripon (good) in May; in nothing like the same form in two starts since, though.
