Comment: Modest form first three starts but took a sharp step forward on Southwell (7f; 22-1) handicap debut, when pipped on the post; dropping to 6f should suit this free-running type, and his trainer has already been in the winners this week.

Comment: Runner-up to a short odds favourite at Southwell (5f maiden; beaten about 5l) on second start; has failed to progress since upped in trip and switched to handicapping; eases a further 2lb in the weights with cheekpieces now applied; possibilities in a weak race.

Comment: Consistent and off the mark at the 15th attempt when justifying favouritism at Chelmsford (6f; with Sarabi third) latest; handles Wolverhampton equally well but a 2lb rise in the weights will make life tougher from the widest draw; key player nevertheless.

Comment: Gone backwards since finishing fourth at Carlisle (6f novice, soft; 100-1) last September; little to enthuse about this season at Musselburgh (1m1f) or Ripon (1m); continues to ease in the weights for AW return.

Comment: Scarcely managed to beat a rival in three attempts in AW novice/maidens last autumn (all 7f at triple-figure odds); pedigree suggests that this extra yardage could suit and she makes her handicap debut at the lowest level; still unlikely.

Comment: Reasonably consistent for Eve Johnson Houghton through the first half of last season, but lost his way prior to moving on for 1,000gns; has struggled in both starts for this trainer (5f-1m), but isn't fully exposed on AW (0-2) and is claimer-ridden from a career-low mark.

Comment: All eight wins were on turf (latest in 2023) but front-running third of ten at Kempton (1m, AW) on reappearance in April; weakened late on here over 8.5f last time and now drops back to 7f with an each-way chance.
