3-5 on the AW for Karl Burke and was returning from 420 days off when beaten a neck on stable debut in a Wolverhampton seller (9.5f, Tapeta; first-time tongue-tie) in October; again led but couldn't build on that in C&D handicap three weeks ago; handicapper relenting.

Shimmering Spin
Prominent racer who looked better than ever when easily winning maiden here in September; patchy form in three starts since but the best of those again came here when third of ten (also 1m) last month; second try at this trip asks a question.

Digub
She improved when picking up a Southwell novice (1m, Tapeta) three weeks ago in a first-time hood (retained); goes up in trip for her handicap debut and pedigree suggests that will only bring about improvement.

Parlando
0-9 on AW but his penultimate effort warranted a look from the stewards and it was a solid fifth of 13 over C&D last time; far from ruled out from a competitive mark.

Promise in the spring of his 3yo career but has been in the doldrums for a good while now.

Post Rider
Three-time winner around 1m; inconsistent in four starts this year but won at Newmarket (1m, good) in October; up 6lb and way off that on Kempton's Polytrack a fortnight ago; same mark on this step back up to 1m2f.

Almekarem
Won a Wolverhampton novice (8.6f, AW) in September; contested four handicaps since, the best of those results when third of ten at Southwell (1m) last month; took a grip when weakening over this trip at Newcastle a fortnight ago and now tries a hood.

War Chant
Won off 2lb higher over C&D last October for Rae Guest and he plugged on from the rear over 1m at this track on his stable debut last month; might go under the radar; chance.

Hinchinbrooke
0-9 but he's starting to trouble the judge and followed a runner-up effort at Yarmouth when second of 13 at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) last time; same mark with cheekpieces deployed; player.

Alpine Oasis
Dual Tapeta winner for Karl Burke; not disgraced on stable debut when seventh of 12 over C&D a fortnight ago; may build on that from career-low mark.
