J: William Carson

T: Laura Mongan

Running consistently off his higher AW mark (almost a stone lower on turf), including for new yard five weeks ago; has only gone beyond 1m once before, though, and the longer trip on grass is the double concern.

J: Luke Morris

T: Laura Mongan

Tapeta win early last year came off 5lb lower and he's looked to find this mark just beyond him this season; needs a career-best effort for his new yard, having been picked up from Brian Meehan recently for £12,500.

J: Mr Liam McGaffin

T: Adam Kirby

Just six turf starts and she narrowly landed a Brighton handicap (7f, good to soft) in October on her final start for Martin Dunne; another narrow win when she took 7f AW handicap in May and she was back in form when runner-up to a well-in rival at Lingfield (AW) last time; new headgear combination and she'll need considering.

Three-time winner, the most recent at Southwell (7f, AW) in May off a 3lb lower mark than today's; never better than midfield at Wolverhampton on first start since wind surgery but the tongue-tie, worn for all three of her wins, now returns; needs things to drop right but she's considered.

0-7 at Ffos Las but has been placed here; won at Chepstow (1m, soft) in June and excelled when third of 16 from a long way out of the weights in a valuable series final over that C&D (good to soft) next time; not so good over C&D (soft) six days ago, however, and his overall strike-rate is 2-40.
