Terries Royale
Prominent racer; won twice over 1m on turf as a 4yo but 0-5 this time round; good third on heavy ground at Doncaster in October but reportedly found the ground too testing back there last month (wore cheekpieces which are now dispensed with); unraced on AW since his first two starts.

Penfolds Grange
8.6f maiden win at Wolverhampton last November; the odd good run for Harry Eustace this year but neither run for new stable in October suggested he was the answer here, even if this is a drop in grade.

Love Your Work
Well into the veteran stage but he is a prolific AW winner and is enjoying a purple patch this autumn, winning over 1m at Kempton in October and adding a 1m2f course win two weeks ago (made all); 5lb higher in a stronger race but the return of accessories could help spark extra.

Union Island
Two wins last December, including C&D, and he completed a turf hat-trick in the summer (all around 1m on good ground); form dipped on last two starts but he returns from 145 days off at a realistic level

Rajinoora
Off the mark at the fifth attempt when winning a 7f handicap at Epsom in July, not looking completely at ease on the track but comfortably on top at the finish; 4lb higher mark looks manageable and stepping back up in trip shouldn't be an issue.

Liv My Life
Won at Southwell (7f) off this mark in January; headed close home at Wolverhampton 17 days ago (8.6f); should remain competitive at this level.

Valkyrja
Cheekpieces went on in the autumn and they have had the desired effect, winning at Yarmouth in October and runner-up at Kempton, Bath and Newcastle; edging up the weights and now goes without the headgear.

- The Sweet Escape
- Rossa Ryan / D Loughnane

The Sweet Escape
He hasn't looked ahead of his mark thus far but cheekpieces are now given a go and Rossa Ryan returns to the saddle for the first time since his debut; still has time to do better.

Havana Touch
Both wins have come over 7f but does have comparable form over a mile; never in the hunt in a race won by a well-backed stablemate at Kempton ten days ago; betting to guide.

Tonal
Wide-margin C&D win in October and defied a penalty at Southwell eight days later; caught wide when second at Kempton in his hat-trick bid ten days ago and ran at least as well as for the wins; 2lb well in and should give it another good go.
