Form & Verdict
Regressed last year but is on a competitive mark now and ran well the only time he's come across this sort of ground; has done most racing over 5f, though, and this stiff 6f would be a slight concern.

Goes well here; all four AW wins have been over C&D; third over C&D last month but below his best at Bath since; looks sure to go close at his favoured track.

His last four wins have come on AW at Wolverhampton; six C&D runs have yielded formfigures of 243234; third at Wolverhampton 12 days ago (for today's rider) and he should be in the thick of the action once again.

Three-time C&D winner, latterly off 4lb higher in February; fine on Polytrack but the return here is an obvious plus off a career-low mark and he's another with claims in an open handicap.

Form & Verdict
Soft/heavy-ground winner in the past who arrives in good form for his new yard, having been picked up for 6,000gns since his recent Brighton win off 4lb lower; fair chance he gets his own way into this smaller field and should go well again.

Form & Verdict
Had issues at the stalls last year and is still to get involved in a finish; didn't run badly on his comeback, having been gelded, though (first-time cheekpieces) without seeing out 7f and is lightly raced compared to the rest of these; considered.

Just one win from 25 starts but that was over C&D and he ran well to finish fourth of 12 over C&D (good to soft) on his penultimate run; has been a bit up and down in five runs this season but his best form form puts him in the picture.

His sole win from 24 starts came over Bath's extended 5f last May; has the same mark today and some minor honours this term, but the switch from cheekpieces to today's visor needs to make him step back up a notch.

Regressive maiden who's done most racing over 5f; handles these conditions and ran a bit better than her final position on comeback but she's gone well fresh before.

5-55; outran her double-figure odds when third to Beerwah and Zuffolo on seasonal reappearance at Redcar (5f, good); she's failed to build on that since, only fifth (runner-up a winner since) back there ten days ago; is due to ease a further 2lb in the weights.

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Stella Barclay

Won off this mark at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in April and fared okay back over 6f there (fourth) next time; however, he has scarcely managed to beat a rival in his last three appearances (5f-7f) which suggests that he'll find life tough, particularly from this wide draw.

Form & Verdict
Has only won once but is consistent and handles this ground fine, as she showed when just behind Danzart over C&D a fortnight ago off the same mark; often takes a grip, including since the hood went back on, but she's shortlisted.
