11st 8lb

J: Dominic Hislop

T: N W Alexander

Won two of his last four, accounting for Snow Dragon at Musselburgh (2m4f, soft; from 4lb lower) in February; the snag is that the other two efforts were laboured ones, beaten 28l into fourth over 2m here (good) three weeks ago; this longer trip can assist.

11st 6lb

J: Dominic Hislop

T: N W Alexander

Inconsistent but won at Ayr (2m3f, heavy) in December and returned to form to win at Musselburgh (2m4f, soft) in February on his latest start; ran well on good ground here last May and it's possible he'll cope with the drop back in trip; he can be in the shake-up if on another going day.

J: Dominic Hislop

T: N W Alexander

Three-time winner, most recently at Ayr (2m3f) on penultimate start; however, by no means certain to repeat that form, being far from consistent otherwise.

J: Bruce Lynn

T: N W Alexander

Won in first-time cheekpieces at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) in February and went close in first-time visor over C&D (good) in May but has very mixed record since the autumn and his latest run was disappointing.

J: Mr Kit Alexander

T: N W Alexander

Won in first-time cheekpieces at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) in February and went close in first-time visor at Perth (2m4f, good) last month but has very mixed record since the autumn and it's hard to predict whether the visor will continue to keep him motivated.
