Form & Verdict
Three wins at Pontefract this summer (2m1f, good or quicker) and she ran another sound race at Musselburgh 11 days ago (2m2f, good to firm); failed to fire here in July but she still makes strong appeal.

J: Joe Fanning

T: Charlie Johnston

Won a soft-ground maiden but best efforts when it's not so deep; 0-10 this season, nearly winning at Musselburgh in August but beaten over 20l on last two outings; down the weights but it's hard to have confidence in her.

Has won on soft, best form on faster ground; 0-9 this season but nearly won at Musselburgh in August; stiff task last time; three-time Pontefract scorer and looks interesting off a workable mark back here.

Form & Verdict
Four wins to his name over 1m3f and 1m4f on a range of ground (handles good to firm); hasn't fired the last twice though and hopes rest on this step up in trip sparking a revival (well beaten in one 1m6f run, the furthest he's gone so far).

Strong finish from rear secured the Chester Plate (2m2f, good) last May off 3lb higher and he also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his four efforts this season a long way behind him, however.

Strong finish from the rear secured the Chester Plate (2m2f, good) last May off 1lb higher than today and he also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his three efforts this season a long way behind him, latest when not faring nearly so well with the draw back in Chester Plate, and others have more pressing claims.

J: Duran Fentiman

T: Tim Easterby

Strong finish from the rear secured this prize last year (good ground) off 1lb lower than today, but also from stall 4 compared to today's stall 16; also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his two efforts this season (1m4f, good) a long way behind him but this may be a much more favourable scenario if the draw does not scupper him.

OR: 71

Form & Verdict
Began the season with two heavy defeats but he bounced back to form when scoring at Redcar a fortnight ago (1m6f, good to firm; cheekpieces back on); consistency hasn't been his strong suit so no guarantee he'll be in the same form; non-runner at Thirsk yesterday.

Sole win came at Doncaster (2m Class 5, good to firm) in April 2022, although he did also go close at Thirsk (2m) later in the season; bit to prove after finishing down the field in his two outings this year.
