Ajrad
Both AW wins over 7f at Lingfield and he hasn't cut the mustard on Tapeta as yet, most recently over 7f and 1m on this track on last two completions; well held in classified events last spring; work to do.

Balmy Breese
Acts well at Wolverhampton and ran his best race for a while when second of 11 over 6f there last week; it's uncertain whether he'll do as well over this C&D and these weights don't favour him.

Coconut Bay
Two 7f wins in 2024 (Tapeta and turf); had some ups and downs since the latest of them in August but this is her level and she ran better when a close third over C&D 11 days ago; drawn wide but form chance.

Evoluir
Off the mark over 6f here in October; slow to find form for new yard but he didn't look a lost cause back here for first time since his win, when finishing strongly to take a late fourth over C&D 11 days ago; in the mix.

Falcon
Very modest form in 2024 and the drop to classified company was no help over C&D 11 days ago; all to prove with visor replacing cheekpieces.

Frightening
Form fizzled out after promising debut but she looked worth another go at 7f when a keeping-on sixth in quite a competitive handicap for the grade at Wolverhampton (6f) last time; considered down in class; tongue tied the last twice but not today.

Miss Billie
Maiden who had a few unsuccessful goes in handicaps off lowly marks before running well from the front over C&D 11 days ago; likely more will be needed.

Motagally
Multiple sprint winner who stays 7f on a good day but his solid efforts are rather intermittent now, despite dropping in the weights; finally eligible for this bottom grade but still hard to count on.

My Boy Jack
AW wins at Wolverhampton but rare for him to have an off day here and he only just lost out over 6f two starts ago; never involved at Newcastle last week but he stays 7f and is more interesting than many back over C&D.

Stars Away
Modest form since C&D debut, latterly in a variety of aids, but at least she slots into this grade for the first time; still hard to make case until showing more.

Van Zant
Best AW form over 1m here, winning last March and in the frame in six of nine starts; returned to form when runner-up at Wolverhampton (7f) on Saturday; has a bit to find on these terms but not out of it.

Wrath Of Hector
Three AW wins here (Fibresand and Tapeta); running well at Chelmsford in the autumn and he shouldn't be far away, returned to this level and back on this track.
