Redarna
10yo who has run fair races in defeat this season and is now 1lb lower than when winning here (7f, good to firm) last August, which is one of four course wins; effective in a big field, having won the 2022 Thirsk Hunt Cup, and Archie Young is good value for his 7lb claim; could be in the mix.

Al Rufaa
Three-time turf winner who went close at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in February and is now 3lb lower; he's better than he's been able to show on turf the last twice and his Lambourn stable is an eyecatching 3-8 at Carlisle, but this headstrong sort needs to raise his game to come out on top today.

Dawn Of Liberation
Very useful early in career and running well in defeat in the main since joining this yard; continues to edge down the weights but needs something extra to snap a 14-race losing sequence in this warm handicap.

- D Tudhope / D O'meara

15/2 |
Orbaan
9yo who has a regressive profile and needs to produce considerably more than he's managed at Epsom and York the last twice; however, he showed spark when third at Ayr three starts ago and isn't written off.

Billyb
Encouraging fifth of 18 on seasonal/stable debut at York and won at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) next time; travelled well and did it cosily, and back up 4lb he remains well treated on old form (at up to 1m); strong claims.

On A Session
Beaten on his last 15 starts and yet to win beyond 7f, but has plenty of good form at this trip and kept on well to go close at Chester (7f, good) 12 days ago; no surprise if he's again thereabouts.

Rogue Sea
Promising start to career last year for Tom Clover, with two wins (1m2f/1m3f, soft/good to firm) from his first three starts; he may get back on track at some stage but he was well beaten last year in his first three handicaps (1m2f-1m6f), and same story on last month's stable debut (1m2f, soft).

Million Thanks
He was having his first turf run for this yard when a commanding winner on last month's reappearance at Pontefract (1m, good; also effective on good to firm); hit with an 8lb rise but he remains well handicapped on form as recent as last summer and he could play a leading role once more.

17/2 |
Leadenhall
1m winner for Ralph Beckett and he was a good third on last month's seasonal and stable debut at Redcar (1m, good to firm); again ran well when fifth of 16 at York (1m2f, good to soft) last time, albeit perhaps not quite seeing out the trip, and this stiff 1m may be ideal; might not be far away.

11/1 |
Hale End
His form can be up and down but he got up close home in a big field at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) last month, ahead of a stablemate who went one better next time; now 4lb higher; in the shake-up if backing up that latest run.

John Chard Vc
Good-ground 2yo novice winner who is 4lb lower than when a good fourth of 17 at Goodwood (1m, soft) last August, and may have needed his recent stable and seasonal debut at York; remains lightly raced but he was soundly beaten last time and needs a sizeable step forward just 11 days on.

Mostawaa
Had a mixed campaign at Meydan earlier this year but returned from a break with gallant third of 14 at York 11 days ago; this front-runner is 5lb lower than winning this last year on good to soft and he's also fully effective on fast ground; capable of a bold bid and firmly in calculations.

Maysong
Hasn't really threatened on his last three starts but hasn't been running badly and he's dropped to a dangerous mark, now 5lb lower than when winning at Sandown last June; went close on AW in March; not discounted.

Lahab
Lightly raced, fast-ground maiden winner who was runner-up at Newcastle (1m, AW) in March and returned to form when third at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) ten days ago; however, this headstrong sort has been inconsistent this year and will struggle to see out this stiff 1m if pulling hard.

Yaaser
Has dropped to a handy mark and was back on song when third of 16 at York (7f, good to soft) 12 days ago; rarely seen over 1m nowadays but he was a very close third at Musselburgh (good to firm) last July on his last attempt at today's trip and he could be involved under William Buick.

Detective
Well beaten at Hamilton last time when 1m3f shouldn't have been an issue (he's versatile trip-wise); however, he's a five-time winner at Carlisle and was a good second of six over this C&D (good to firm) two starts ago; possible player now back here and back in blinkers (prolific in them in 2021).

Strongbowe
Not at his best on his three runs this season, including when last of six over C&D two starts ago; however, that wasn't a bad run off an unsuitably steady pace and this C&D brought out the best in him last year; now 3lb lower than for his last win (C&D) and could stage a revival back at this track.
