J: Oisin Orr

Faded over C&D on his yard debut following a break and has been kept to 6f since, improving for the fitting of cheekpieces when winning at Ripon (good) in May; in nothing like the same form in two starts since, though.

One win from eight starts, namely a 6f handicap at Ripon last month when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; the headgear was absent when sixth back at Ripon 17 days ago and no surprise to see it back in place today; respected.

Started off for new stable with two down-the-field runs last month but bounced back to form with clear C&D (good) win in first-time cheekpices 11 days ago; not ideally drawn today and goes without cheekpieces this time but still respected under 6lb penalty (due to go up that amount anyway).

Rare 2yo runner for the yard who ran respectably on his nursery debut and first crack at this trip, having been gelded, early in the month (Zoumluzzi behind); one to consider.

Half-sister to two useful 2yo winners who again started a three-figure price when offering more in a 6f novice late last month; wouldn't need to improve much on that in an ordinary nursery.

Positives to take from her two Thirsk efforts (6f-7f) but a representative of her trainer had no explanation for the poor run at Musselburgh (1m, good; first attempt at trip) latest; drops back to 6f from an easing mark; isn't discounted.

Moderate form in five starts for Nigel Tinkler, finishing around 4l behind Espona Bay when last of nine at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) in January; blinkers added on stable debut and a transformation is required.

Pacey filly; has gone well for Jack Nicholls at Thirsk (6f; runner-up) and Beverley (5f; third); seemingly hung her chance away at Beverley but returning to this sharper track (even over 6f) could prove a better fit; likely to give her running and have a say.
