Kept on for fair fifth on last month's debut at Southwell (5f, AW) and improved when runner-up to well-backed newcomer at Carlisle (6f, soft); strong claims on the back of that latest effort.

Thecla

8st 13lb

J: Tom Eaves

T: Kevin Ryan

Won 2yo maiden at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) last September and she's dropping down the weights; however, she's struggled on both runs this season and a major turnaround is required in first-time cheekpieces.

Four 2yo starts, winning four-runner maiden at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) on her third outing; she's better than she showed on recent reappearance at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) but her claims aren't compelling after that.

Made all when winning a Hamilton maiden in September (6f, good to soft) but she was held under a penalty at Southwell (5f, AW) when last seen 259 days ago; best watched on handicap debut unless the market speaks favourably.

Form & Verdict
Refused to race on debut in June; fair fifth at Chester (6f, good) later that month and built on that when third at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) last month; could be thereabouts once more.

17-2 when well-beaten fourth of seven on recent debut at Musselburgh (7f, good); however, his inexperience was evident and it will be no surprise if he takes a sizeable step forward this afternoon.

10st 3lb

J: Mr Aiden Blakemore

T: Sara Ender

Handicapper quick to ease off this spring and he turned in his best effort for this yard when fourth behind Sisterandbrother at Doncaster last weekend; inclined to over-race back in cheekpieces there and has to prove he can do it on the AW.

9st 6lb

J: Tom Kiely-Marshall

T: Sara Ender

Won on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last April but he's 0-9 since and has been well held in four runs this year; now 10lb lower than for his win but he weakened quickly at Nottingham three weeks ago and others are preferred; cheekpieces (tried once last year) are reapplied.

Took a step in the right direction when 6l fourth at Carlisle (6f, soft) last month on second start but needs further improvement today.

16-race maiden but he has finished second in similar events over C&D on his last two starts, no match for an easy winner on each occasion; likely to be involved once again.
