J: Jack Callan

T: Charlie Johnston

Low-mileage 3yo who has won two handicaps (1m4f/1m6f) on turf this season but his form nosedived at Carlisle 17 days ago; still unexposed at this trip but he comes with risks attached after that heavy defeat.

J: Connor Beasley

T: Charlie Johnston

He has been doing well since being gelded and tackling handicaps on a sound surface, winning four-runner event at Leicester (1m4f) and three-runner race at Redcar (1m6f); far from disgraced in a Class 2 at Doncaster last time, bringing this year's form figures to 21213; not fully exposed and likely capable of better yet.

Two wins and two seconds this season in his four small-field handicaps; 4-9 when upped to 1m6f at Redcar on latest, well on top; raised 3lb but this should also be a far more competitive race.

Form & Verdict
3-3 in AW handicaps but record on turf reads 009; made all on his penultimate start and could be interesting if similar tactics are employed, but his suitability to grass remains an issue.

J: Richie McLernon

Won three in a row on AW (1m2f/1m4f) in February and he was a creditable second when upped to 1m6f in a Redcar handicap (good to firm) last month; takes on two previous winners on this hurdling debut but he has some fair form on the Flat and he's not ruled out.

Tailed off in two turf races on good last July; firmly on the up in AW handicaps when last seen, registering a quickfire hat-trick in February and last two starts were at 1m4f (made all last time); absent since and this is a much more competitive contest for his return to turf.

Unplaced in six starts and unraced beyond 1m2f; usually held up in her races but not sure if this will pan out ideally for her; blinkers return.

Eight-race maiden whose handicap form, latterly over 1m6f, isn't particularly convincing; may benefit from the drop back in trip but others have stronger claims.

Little impact since handicapping and when third at Redcar 16 days ago (first run at the trip) she was still beaten nearly 10l in a three-runner race; headgear dispensed with today; not solid.
