Two wins on AW at Southwell this year; not disgraced in competitive field at York most recently; this may prove a bit less taxing and he's suited by the track, being a dual Windsor scorer.

9yo who was down the field at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last time but was running consistently well prior to that; this C&D winner has an each-way chance if bouncing back.

Hearty strike-rate on turf, adding another in a Racing League race at Yarmouth (1m2f) in July; less of a win machine on AW but both wins have come on this track, over C&D and 1m4f in early 2024, and he was involved in a tight finish back on AW at Wolverhampton two starts ago; not far away.

Ideally suited by Brighton (5-7 there) but won over this C&D in 2022 and ran creditably here on penultimate start; capable of being involved, provided she bounces back from a below-par Sandown run.

All seven wins have been on turf and latest was over C&D last June; didn't fire in her final two runs last season but this is a drop back in grade and she won on her seasonal return in 2022 and 2023; needs a close look off dangerous mark.

Form for new stable features a win at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) in June and creditable effort at Glorious Goodwood (1m2f, good) last time; remains on career-high mark and is far more exposed than some of these rivals.

Lightly raced 4yo who won two in a row last winter (1m4f/1m3f, AW) and returned to form when going close in first-time blinkers (retained) at Windsor (1m, good to firm) recently; able to run off 2lb lower today (due to be 6lb higher in future) and can be bang there if confirming that latest promise.

Has form figures of 112 in his 9.5f/1m2f races for new yard this year, good second over C&D most recently, while leaving the impression he's worth a go in headgear (now wears cheekpieces); this low-mileage 5yo may have further progress in him; big player.

Hasn't reached the heights his pedigree promised on the Flat but is a dual AW winner at up to 1m2f (RPR 94); trainer 16% with his hurdlers over five seasons and this gelding is likely to be well versed ahead of his debut; big player if transferring his abilities from the other code.

Defied a long absence to win at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in March on his second start and followed up in Newcastle handicap (1m2f, AW); disappointing at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) three weeks ago but this very lightly raced 5yo retains potential and could be a contender; ran well here on debut in 2022.

Took her Chepstow record to 2-4 when seeing off five rivals over 1m2f last July but her form dipped at the end of the year; races over short of 1m for the first time in five years on her reappearance and a watching brief is the call despite her good record here.
