Comment: Ten-time winner who is on a dangerous mark and didn't get much luck when fifth in a similar race at Thirsk (1m, good; 3-1 favourite) on Friday; this is his third run in ten days but he has possibilities if he gets the breaks; has won on good to firm and heavy ground.

Comment: Recorded his 14th career win when scoring at Wolverhampton in April and he's finished runner-up at Redcar (6f, good/good to firm) in last two starts; remains feasibly treated but he's not run on slow ground for a long time and it would be a worry if rain arrives.

Comment: Ended lengthy losing run in classified event at Nottingham (5f, good) last month and followed up in a handicap at Ripon 11 days later; held in third at Ripon last Monday but that was behind a resurgent rival in a Class 5 and she remains well treated on old form; respected dropped back in grade.

Comment: Both wins have been on AW and latest was 11 months ago; 0-15 on turf but he had a near-miss at Nottingham (5f, good) in July and has run respectably in two of his three subsequent runs; usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets some luck.

Comment: Dangerous on this season's best but more recent efforts need building on, including when failing to justify market support over C&D 12 days ago; another 2lb lower and he can't be discounted.

Comment: Prominent racer; off the mark in a 7f maiden at Thirsk in June (7f, good) and ran to a similar level at Catterick on her handicap debut 54 days ago; could well have more to offer but significant rain would be an unknown factor (unraced on slower than good).

Shine On Brendan

Jockey: P J McDonald Trainer: Jim Goldie Age/Wt: 8/9-12 F: 050242 OR: 66

18/1

Comment: Ended last season with wins at Hamilton (8.3f, soft) and Ayr (1m, good); mixed results in six runs this year but he's back on last winning mark and was runner-up at Hamilton last time; has possibilities and any rain would be a bonus.

Mr Withington

20/1

Comment: Unexposed 4yo who was beaten less than 3l in handicaps at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft) and Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in last two starts; still hard to pin down his optimum trip but he set the pace last time and is not ruled out on this drop back to 1m1f.

Wish This

Jockey: Barry McHugh Trainer: Alan Brown Age/Wt: 3/9-10 F: 4-0384 OR: 70

25/1

Comment: Made the frame three times when trained in Ireland, but he's been well held in two runs for new yard this summer; had some traffic issues before making some late gains at Newcastle (1m, AW) last time, but he's now 0-9 and others are more persuasive.

50/1

Comment: Career win number 10 when scoring at Beverley (1m2f, soft) in April but he's not matched that form since; now 8lb lower than for that last success but he needs to rediscover his spark.
