T: David O’Meara

Dug deep to justify strong market support in 6f Ripon handicap (soft; has also won on good to firm) 18 days ago; below par on his previous attempt over 7f but the way he stuck on at Ripon suggests this sort of trip could be within range.

Thirsk winner (6f, good; from 6lb lower) in April; various near misses since, including at Newmarket and York, and as recently as last week at Thirsk (beaten a head); high draw is helpful, the prospect of rain-softened ground less so; still rates a player.

Found a bit of bother in running when beaten 8l at Redcar but she lacks experience and likely the talent to keep up with the best of these.

Course regular who won over 7f in March; only 2lb higher and mainly running well in the meantime but, although she has run with credit over this far, there's a suspicion that a shorter trip suits her better.

Will win races but he was just behind An Outlaw's Grace at York and he's worse off at the weights with that rival here; there are plenty of others to worry about, also.

Ran well when third of ten at Southwell on his handicap debut in February and he's dropped 7lb since that effort; that is with some justification, as he's been well short of that level in three runs since; needs a full revival with cheekpieces the headgear of choice this time.
