Form & Verdict
Made it 0-12 when well beaten at Pontefract (1m2f, soft) four weeks ago; however, that may have come too soon, six days after her good third at Beverley (1m2f, soft) in a first-time tongue-tie (retained since); not ruled out.

Form & Verdict
Soundly beaten fifth on reappearance at Pontefract (1m2f, soft) and he has a mixed record on slow ground; however, he may have needed that latest run and he won twice last year (1m2f, good to firm/AW); not discounted.

On the downgrade these days but his latest fourth of 13 at Musselburgh (1m, good) was a fair effort on Monday; will need more from the same mark but this stiffer test should suit.

Generally struggled this season and the years look to be catching up now; an easy 1m such as this would have been a bare minimum even in his pomp and Thats My Boy Luke may be his yard's best chance.

Veteran who is a dual winner (including over C&D) here but his recent form is not so encouraging, just seventh of 13 in 1m2f Newcastle handicap 17 days ago; needs to get back on track.

Form & Verdict
Lightly raced 4yo who has been tailed off on both runs this spring (1m, AW/soft), after an absence; a transformation is needed in the first-time hood.

0-9; ran some good races for Harry Eustace but has regressed sharply in handicaps and shouldn't be troubling Flight Radar on these terms.

Continues to drop down the weights and didn't run badly when fifth of seven in first-time cheekpieces at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) three weeks ago; however, he's struggled in the main this season; no headgear today.

Interesting on his maiden/novice efforts for Harry Eustace last season but hasn't beaten a rival in three runs for current yard; hooded last time and now in cheekpieces.
