9st 7lb

J: Hector Crouch

T: Jennie Candlish

Has only won a seller in Britain but he took some passing off 1lb lower last time at Thirsk (7f, good to soft); likes to lead so he'll need to do plenty of early running from stall 8.

Made all to win an uncompetitive seller at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in July; two creditable efforts have followed without suggesting he's going to be the answer this time.

J: Jack Callan

T: Jennie Candlish

Won on debut for Joseph O'Brien; his only effort of note in six starts for current yard (two here) was last month's selling win at Beverley (extended 1m) when odds-on in beating two rivals (in this first-time headgear); back in a handicap last time and was found wanting, albeit over 1m2f; others preferred.

Form & Verdict
Infrequent winner; fair return to action when fifth over C&D in April but she looks to face an uphill task at these weights.

Recorded her third success, at Ayr (7f, good to soft) last month off 4lb lower; produced a respectable effort when fourth of 13 at Ripon (1m, soft) 13 days ago; likely needs more off her current mark.

Landed 12-runner handicap at Ayr (7f) 22 days ago; up 4lb but still lightly raced this season so not out of things.

Catton Lady

10st 2lb

J: Joanna Mason

T: Michael & David Easterby

Ended a long losing run when scoring off 2lb lower at Carlisle (1m, soft) last June; has had just two runs this season but she's run creditably in a handicap and a seller at Beverley; now drops back in trip but has possibilities if she gets a good pace and some luck.

Form & Verdict
Won twice over 7f last November; comparable form when second at Carlisle (1m, soft) last month; not so good last time and she faces a stiff task at the weights; slower ground ideal too.

Chased home Ravishing Beauty here (soft) in June; 1lb lower today but that run has been followed by two disappointing efforts; the more rain to fall the better.
