Woodhay Whisper
Made a good start when runner-up on Windsor debut but she hasn't gone on in handicaps, including for new yard last time out, despite dropping down the weights; this is an easier grade but still hard to be sure she's worth her current mark.

Eighteencaratgold
Ran well for a long way on handicap debut over 6f at Kempton in August; unable to sustain front-running effort over that trip at Chelmsford (first-time cheekpieces, retained) when back from a break this month but the return to 5f looks the right move; competitive.

Zoulu Warrior
Very modest beginnings but he showed much more from the front over 7f here in September (first-time cheekpieces; blinkers this time) when reeled in late; out of his comfort zone at Newmarket since but interesting back at 5f.

Bank On Kent
Can lead; has gone close in two 6f handicaps, on turf and Polytrack, and wasn't far short of his best when a close third at Chelmsford (5f; first-time blinkers, retained) 14 days ago; however, he broke a blood vessel there and is unraced on Tapeta so he's no steady proposition.

Frankies Dream
Has made a low-key start to career over 6f and 5f, thus earning himself a lowly mark for his first handicap; gelded since last seen; yard in fine form but it's not yet certain that a sharp 5f is his ideal.

Causin A Commotion
Well backed for C&D handicap debut when he travelled nicely but was slow to pick up before running on into a close fourth; lesser run at Newcastle since, when blinkers were fitted (now discarded), but has to be considered back here.

La Mer Grise
Little worthwhile form so far and the drop to a bare 5f on handicap debut paid no dividends at Newcastle 22 days ago; hard to enthuse.

Master Zack
Had soft ground/trouble in running excuses for two of his handicap runs but he had nothing left in reserve after making the running at Chelmsford (5f) recently and has nowhere to go from handicapping viewpoint.

Cuban Lynx
Well held in handicaps over 6f to 1m, most recently over the latter trip for new trainer last week; big trip rethink looks an experiment.

Mister Coco Fizz
Not yet come close to winning a handicap, including over C&D; needs extra for a visor replacing cheekpieces; others higher up the list.
