9st 4lb

J: David Allan

T: Tim Easterby

Ran okay in a Class 2 AW handicap last time as that race didn't go to plan; exposed but he's on a career-low mark and has won on soft ground; couldn't put a line through him.

Infrequent winner but is 2-4 on Tapeta, his latest win coming from 3lb lower at Newcastle (1m2f) last September; could go well at a price.

9st 4lb

J: David Allan

T: Tim Easterby

He's won just one of his last 23 starts and has failed to fire on his last two outings; however, he had a tough assignment in the John Smith's Cup at York last Saturday and he's dropped to a handy mark; runner-up to the 4-7 favourite in this race last year and he's not ruled out.

8st 6lb

J: Duran Fentiman

T: Tim Easterby

Some good C&D form, beaten just a neck in a big field last August (good to firm) and fourth of 16 two starts ago (good); he has an each-way squeak if he's on song but that wasn't the case at Newcastle last time (slowly away) and he's won just one of his last 22 starts.

8st 9lb

J: David Allan

T: Tim Easterby

His 2-3 AW record includes a comfortable C&D win off only 1lb lower last September; arrives on the back of two good efforts in strong turf handicaps and a bold bid looks assured now back on AW.
