Acts on good to firm and soft; nine-time winner who scored by 4l at Catterick two weeks ago but was disappointing under a penalty there last Wednesday; up another 4lb, but he was as good as ever on his penultimate run and is a player if he can recapture that form.

Failed to beat a rival home at Thirsk (5f, good) but he's won over this C&D either side of that, including when coming 4l clear nine days ago; looks well treated under a 4lb penalty but this is a step up in class.

Two wins on good ground this summer (handles good to soft) and she ran well off this mark in her hat-trick bid in June; not at the same level this month though and soft ground and stall 15 leave her with a look of vulnerability.

J: Connor Beasley

Better than ever this season, with form figures of 3112, and her latest win was over C&D (good); usually comes from off the pace and she split two rivals who raced more prominently when runner-up here in June; returns after a short break but she's strongly respected off same mark as last time.

In-form 4yo who has won twice over 5f (AW/good to firm) this summer and she didn't get the best of runs when a close fourth of 11 at Chester (5f, good) last time; on same mark here and she should be in the thick of things again.

Firmly on the up for his new stable, making all at Catterick before narrowly denied by Rotokura Belle over C&D; back to winning ways with a Newcastle success 15 days ago (much more convincing than the neck margin might suggest); up 6lb in a better race but he's a speedy and progressive 3yo who commands major respect.

Promise for Adrian Nicholls and plenty to spare when making all in a 5f handicap at Catterick on stable debut; bettered that form when neck second (Yellow Diamond 4l behind in fourth) of 13 at York (5f, good) 13 days ago, keeping on well despite losing his left cheekpiece approaching the final furlong; raised another 5lb but the third, Schrodinger's Cat, won easily at Redcar on Saturday; should have a big say on AW debut.

Poorly drawn and well beaten on seasonal reappearance here (6f) in April, but much more competitive when third at Carlisle (5f, good; 9-2) 16 days ago; bypassed an option at Catterick on Saturday (unsuitable ground) in favour of this; rain - three wins on soft - would aid his cause.
