Yet to fire this season but landed his third win here when successful in this race last year (good to firm) off 4lb higher; he has also been placed twice at this track and can never be written off around here.

Prominent racer; now 1lb lower than for last August's win at Chester (7.6f, good to firm) but his two York efforts this summer have been underwhelming.

T: John Butler

His last win was in April 2024 but he hasn't been with John Butler for long and he showed signs of a revival when fourth at Newcastle (1m, AW) last month; has claims if he can build on that and he should be fine back at this trip.

A useful 1m winner at his best for Jack Channon; offered little in two runs for Brian Toomey this spring though and came in last of 14 for John Butler in 7f handicap here four weeks ago; no surprise if he took a step forward though with new yard among the winners.

Consistent dual winner who coped well with the rise in class when pushing a well-handicapped winner all the way at Ayr six days ago (1m, good; goes on all surfaces); not ideally drawn out in 15 but plenty to like otherwise.

Likeably consistent dual winner who won't mind what the weather does, with recent seconds at about 1m coming on soft and good to firm; pretty solid, other than this is a step up in class.

Comfortable win on her debut at Beverley (7.5f, soft) last September and second of eight in a Newbury Listed race (7f, soft) the following month; disappointed under a penalty on her reappearance at Leicester (1m, good to firm) in May and now makes her handicap debut having been off again since; will appreciate any rain that falls.

Responded well to first-time cheekpieces when winning over C&D (good) last month but he was well held back here (fifth of seven) 13 days ago; finished behind some of today's rivals in that race and he needs to step up again after that.
