J: Toby Moore

Won here over 1m1f in April (good to firm) and followed up at Bath (11.5f, firm) next time off a 6lb lower mark than today's; disappointing at Beverley (1m2f) 36 days ago but he did sit close to a strong pace and may be able to bounce back.

J: Cieren Fallon

Made virtually all in a five-runner race at Yarmouth (1m1f, good to firm) last month and followed up in another small field at Bath (11.5f, firm) 15 days ago; up 6lb for last time and steps up in grade, but can't be dismissed in his bid for the hat-trick.

0-14 but six times a runner-up and he also ran well in a similar race over C&D last year; his form dipped last time but that was his first run on soft ground; likely to go well.

0-13 and his six runner-up placings may suggest something's afoot; did dead-heat at Kempton (1m4f, AW; demoted to second) in November and he comes here in form having chased one home again at Southwell in April and Bath last time; handles good to soft; can make his presence felt.

Returned to winning ways when scoring over C&D (good) last month off 4lb lower; raced too freely at Ffos Las two days later and may be worth considering back at his last winning venue.

J: Mason Paetel

T: Barry John Murphy

Placed three times from four starts here but his regular hunting ground is Bath and he scored there (1m, heavy) off 5lb lower wearing a new hood/tongue-tie combination in October; kept to that track until the hood was removed in ten-runner handicap at Chepstow (1m, good) on Monday when he saw it well to score under Mason Paetel; carries 4lb penalty but won't mind what the weather does; player.

8lb lower than when winning easily here (1m4f, good to firm) last July, but hasn't matched that form since and was a long last of four at Bath (11.7f, firm) six weeks ago; can be slowly away.
