Form & Verdict
0-7 and was disappointing in a Hamilton handicap (6f; favourite) last time but he sets a fair standard on his best form including a close call on Tapeta at Newcastle last November; returns from 184 days off but this drop to 5f should be fine and he's a big player if he can get back near best.

6-21 on AW but still seeking a first turf win after 15 attempts; latest Thirsk fourth (6f, good to firm) as good as anything he's produced on the grass but may find at least the odd one too strong again.

Gained three 6f wins on the AW last spring but went off the boil and refused to race in the Ayr Silver Cup on final outing; 0-13 on turf and never a factor on reappearance (66-1); others appeal more.

40,000gns Showcasing filly; 11-2 for a maiden at Ayr (6f, good) in August but she couldn't make an impact before finishing fifth of 11; wasn't beaten far in that race but that form is ordinary and she has plenty to find on this drop in trip.

Two C&D wins since July; failed to fire over C&D last month (vet reported she was stiff behind after the race); better than that and she's one for the shortlist.

J: Billy Loughnane

Both wins have come over C&D, latterly when getting up late in a 0-52 handicap 25 days ago; 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another good run and Billy Loughnane is an obvious plus in apprentice company.

Form & Verdict
Seven-race maiden but she's finished third with blinkers added in two 6f handicaps this autumn and went very close in a C&D novice last time; pulled clear with an odds-on rival in that race and she should be in the thick of things again.

Form & Verdict
Well-bred gelding who is a half-brother to six winners but he made a low-key start when seventh of eight over C&D (hood applied; 12-1) last month; should know more this time but he needs to leave his initial form a long way behind.

Well-bred but unplaced in all eight starts (turf debut last time); has stamina to prove over this far and the draw hasn't been kind either; look elsewhere.

From a good family but he's looked poor on the AW to date, failing to make the frame after seven starts; the switch to turf, minus the tongue-tie, back from an 11-week break, needs to be a difference maker.
