Aberama Gold
Not the force of old but won over C&D (good) off 2lb higher in April and last week's second at Epsom (6f, good to firm) confirms he's back in form; bold show likely.

Archduke Ferdinand
Last two wins have come over 6f at Redcar and he returned to form when third over that C&D (good to firm) in May; well beaten in a big field at York since; first visit to Catterick.

The Good Biscuit
C&D winner off this mark on soft ground (also won on good to firm) last autumn; his recent efforts have been no more than respectable but he's nicely handicapped back at venue which suits.

Two Commanders
Confirmed 7f course debut promise when seeing off seven rivals in C&D novice (soft) in June; may have bumped into a useful prospect at Leicester (6f, good to firm) since, pulling well clear of the rest; brings obvious unexposed potential to handicap debut.

Kody B
Ended 2yo season with soft-ground maiden win over 6f at Pontefract but hasn't reproduced that form in three handicaps this year, including at Chester on Saturday; has first-time cheekpieces added to the tongue-tie he's worn of late.

Awraad
Ran well over 6f in nursery at the York Ebor festival and Listed event at Ripon last August; nowhere near that form in three outings since; a two-month break needs to have had a reviving effect.

Quercus
Loves it here, with all but one of his eight wins coming over C&D; however, failed to build on reappearance when well last of six over C&D at the end of May so his hopes are pinned on a change of stable (has left Stephen Hanlon) sparking a return to form.

12/1 |
Dream Deal
Successful at Beverley (5f, good) last month and ever better efforts when runner-up twice at Pontefract (both 5f, good) since; dual C&D winner last year so no reason why his run of good form won't continue.
