Dyrholaey
Useful on AW and the seller he won at Southwell last month was a good race of its type; only fourth back in handicap company at Newcastle nine days ago (made the running and finished behind Aberama Gold) but this easier track should be more to his liking; should go well again.

Aberama Gold
Won three 6f handicaps this summer, including on Tapeta, and he ran on well for second at Newcastle nine days ago (finished in front of a couple of today's rivals); up 2lb but unlikely to be too far away at this level.

Lethal Nymph
Has a C&D win on his record but this year's two victories have come when prominently ridden over 5f; latest effort wasn't his best but wouldn't be handicapped out of it judged on his penultimate third.

Last year's two wins for Tom Clover came over further but the drop to 6f didn't look an issue at Kempton 19 days ago, a race in which he finished fifth but went through the race like a well-handicapped horse (got tight for room close home); has a big run in him.

Accrual
Capable of throwing in a stinker but he's a capable sprinter on his day and he ran well here over 5f last week, running on well to chase home a thriving winner (eyeshield first time; second run for new connections); runs off the same mark but the step up in trip a slight query (can pull hard).

Papa Cocktail
Hold-up sprinter; ran out the easy winner of a C&D handicap in October (Class 5) and solid placed efforts off his revised mark on his next two starts; couldn't land a blow in a Class 3 here two weeks ago; strong pace would suit.

Brian The Snail
Prolific veteran who cam from off the pace to win a C&D handicap in April off 1lb lower; he was returning from a break when finishing behind a couple of these at Newcastle nine days ago; odds-on to blow the start and others appeal more for win purposes.
