9/1 |
Arantes Nascimento
Had some close calls for Gemma Tutty during the summer but he's been well held in both runs for current yard; should be sharper for his reappearance run at Kempton two weeks ago but he's now 1-18 and others are more persuasive.

3/1 |
Me Tarzan
Won twice on turf during the summer and he finished placed in his final four runs for James Fanshawe; changed hands for 27,000gns in October; only 1lb higher than for his close third at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time and he's respected on return for new yard; another change of headgear.

Bint Havana Gold
All five wins have been on AW (6f/7f) and latest was an emphatic success at Chelmsford in October; looks interesting on that form but she's not matched in three runs since and needs to rediscover her spark.

Comedian Leader
Completed a turf double here (7f/6f) in August but she returned after a break with laboured effort at Kempton (6f, AW) last week; has won on Polytrack in the past but that was a major blip last time and she needs to bounce back.

Way To Dubai
Yet to win in Britain but he went close over C&D last month and things didn't go his way in a Class 4 over 6f here last time; should get a decent tow into this race and he's in the mix back in trip and down and grade.

7/2 |
Enpassant
Landed 7f wins at Leicester (good to firm) and Newcastle (AW) in August/September and he got back on track with a close third at Wolverhampton 18 days ago; on unchanged mark and he's a big player if he can repeat that latest form.

Adelaide Bay
3yo who won three AW handicaps (7f) for Jane Chapple-Hyam but he was always in rear on his stable debut here (last of 12) last month; that was at 1m after a break but he has bit to prove after that heavy defeat and others are preferred.

Apache Green
Sole win was in a 6f novice (good to firm) 15 months ago and has form figures of 96809 in his last five handicaps (7f/1m); continues to drop down the weights but he needs a major revival in new headgear.

Crystal Dagger
Runner-up in three of her six starts but she's also had two heavy defeats including in a Southwell handicap (6f, Tapeta) last month; still early days and this step back up in trip looks a positive but others are more convincing.

Dashing Donkey
Made all in two Newmarket handicaps (1m, good to soft) during the summer but he was well held in hat-trick bid at Yarmouth in September; needs to find more to defy this mark on his return and his AW form lags behind his best turf efforts.
