Art Lover
Impressive when winning 6f maiden at Ffos Las (good to soft) and although his handicap runs came to nothing in the end, a troubled run ended his hopes at Doncaster (6f, good) last September; gelded since; the market should show what's expected on his return.

Grasmere Boy
Started off at 7f but showed no lack of pace when emphatic 6f winner at Ripon in June; the experience of coping with that unconventional track should stand him in good stead round this tight track on handicap debut; can progress.

Inca Heights
Had some difficult assignments after 5f Newbury maiden win on debut; well behind on handicap debut at Leicester (6f, good to firm; 28-1) on return in May; needs too much more to make him of strong interest this time.

Kind Touch
Has acquitted himself well in all four starts, winning over 5f on Ripon debut as 2yo, but most significantly when keeping on well against smart sprinting rivals at York (6f, good) four weeks ago; in the thick of it at this easier level for yard that has won two of the last eight runnings.

Polka Blue
Has found new reserves of late, gaining back-to-back wins over 6f (good to firm) and 7f (AW) before building up a head of steam to take a late third against the older fillies at Newmarket (6f) recently; might prefer a stiffer test than this sharp 6f but still hard to leave out.

Cotai Lights
Wide-margin winner of 6f AW novice as 2yo but best handicap form has come at 7f and he's finished nearer last than first over 6f on his last two starts; has it to prove from the widest stall; cheekpieces refitted.

Kody B
Ended 2yo season with soft-ground win over 6f at Pontefract; fared better back over this trip at Hamilton (good) in May but he's another for whom this easy 6f may be on the sharp side.

Sargent Dennis
All races at 6f, taking a step forward for the switch to turf when racing clear at Windsor (good to firm; second a wide-margin winner of handicap since) in May; not ideally drawn this time but he looks a likely type for this level.
