J: Cieren Fallon

T: David O’Meara

Veteran with 18 wins on his CV, including over C&D; last success was from the front at Redcar (6f, good to firm) in May but he's been well held in both runs since; bit to prove again but has possibilities if he can bounce back.

Form & Verdict
Three-time course winner (two at this trip) who has been running consistently well in defeat, as when beaten just over a length into third of 12 over C&D ten days ago; should go well again but a losing run of 18 does raise questions.

Dual C&D winner late last year and although only fifth of 11 here last time, he still ran well under a prominent ride given that the first four were all held up; respected.

Has done all his winning on Newcastle AW; however, finished a good second over C&D most recently and is due to go back up 1lb in future; holds a fighting chance in his attempt to go one better.

Five-time AW winner, the latest (May) his first over 7f; still seeking a first turf success but his two best runs on the grass came over C&D last summer; not discounted.

Last of 20 over 6f last May on his only race here, before finishing on the heels of the leaders twice over 7f at Doncaster; 0-11 on turf and not the most consistent but he won at Newcastle on two of his last three AW starts and the latest was over 7f; 6lb lower today and needs a close look.

Sent off 33-1 when back to winning form over C&D on New Year's Day with Wee Fat Mac back in third and Showtime Mahomes sixth; 4lb higher and wouldn't be certain to back up that performance.

Second to an in-form subsequent winner over C&D (good to firm) last month and again ran well when close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) nine days ago; remains on a workable mark; must be considered.

Finished strongly to make it 16th-time lucky over C&D early last month, but was beaten over 6l into ninth of 11 behind Beale Street back here a fortnight later; needs to put that effort behind him.

Jackson Street

9st 8lb

Usually seen on the AW and just 2lb higher than when winning at Lingfield (7f) in December; placed just once in 11 starts on turf, though, so not hard to have reservations.

Form & Verdict
Looked unlucky when a close third (Beale Street behind) over C&D on his penultimate start, but only sixth of 12 (behind two of these) when sent off favourite back here ten days ago; may not have been racing on the favoured part of the track and could bounce back.

J: Sam James

T: Grant Tuer

Resumed winning ways at Southwell (6f; 10-1, from a 2lb lower mark) early in the New Year, having regularly caught the eye here prior; no obvious excuses when fourth over C&D latest (14-1); others more appealing.

Showtime Mahomes

Came from off the pace to score at Southwell last month, his seventh success; probably still on a workable mark but his latest run was below par and his record in recent months is very mixed.
