Gained his first turf win since July 2021 when making all at Carlisle nine days ago (6f, good to soft); a 6lb rise for that win looks stiff given he's thoroughly exposed but he's drawn 8 and should be able to grab the rail which has been a huge advantage at recent meetings; key player.

Form & Verdict
1-13, but he ran well dropped back in trip when third of eight on stable debut after 112 days off at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) this month; something to prove if the ground eases (modest effort in one start on ground softer than good), but still one of the more likely winners.

5lb lower than when winning at Pontefract (6f, good) last summer and he suggested he may be on the way back when fourth of ten at Catterick (6f, good to firm) last time; has won on soft, so rain not an issue and the return to a stiffer track may help; shortlisted.

Back to his best last year and his reappearance second of 13 at Pontefract (5f) in April sent his mark to new heights; hasn't matched that in three starts since but last time's fifth of ten from the widest stall at Chester (6f, also good to soft; not clear run) suggests this mark isn't beyond him; in the picture.

Form & Verdict
Needs to step up on last month's Haydock reappearance (first outing after a second wind operation), but two starts over C&D last summer resulted in a win (on soft) and a neck defeat (good); rain would be in his favour and high on the list under Simon Walker.

Back-to-back wins at Hamilton last September (6f); regular cheekpieces were left off for return and he shaped as if needing the run; can build on that in refitted headgear here; last AW run (over C&D) was his best effort on an artificial surface.

Scored twice on a soft surface over 6f at Hamilton last September, but was weak in the market when failing in his hat-trick bid at Pontefract (6f, soft) the following month; may need this first start in six months and wouldn't want the ground to dry out too much.

Lightly raced and formerly Irish-trained filly whose sole win came when sent off 4-9 in an uncompetitive Bath maiden (5f, good) last September; rain wouldn't be an issue, but she will need to step up from last month's modest Haydock stable/handicap debut (behind Belsito).

All eight wins have been on good or slower and last six have been over 6f; made it 2-2 in blinkers when beating 16 rivals at Thirsk last month and she ran well again when fourth in hat-trick bid at Nottingham (6f, good) on Wednesday; should be in the thick of things again and it would be a positive if rain arrives.

C&D winner; off the mark for the year with a comfortable success at Redcar nine days ago (6f, good; first win on ground without soft in the description); that win came in new blinkers which aren't guaranteed to have the same effect a second time; only 3lb higher today, though, so she has obvious claims if in the same form.

5lb lower than when winning at Sandown (5f, soft) last September, but that her only success in her last 31 starts; this stiff 6f may also pose a problem, especially if the ground eases; dropped away in the closing stages at Redcar (6f, good to firm) on Tuesday.
