Night Mission
Podium finishes on all three 2yo novice starts for Mark Rimell, almost holding on at Redcar (6f, good; bumped late); yet to scale those heights in handicaps this term despite starting off on a tolerable mark, traffic not costing him a win latest; hopes rest with change of scenery since.

Ballybunion
Gently progressive in 6f 2yo novice/maiden runs, so fair chance he'll step up on May's seasonal/handicap debut (10l 13th of 19) in which he was compromised by racing down the centre; effective over a galloping 6f, and of definite interest dropped from Class 4; has had wind surgery.

Slot
Neck second at Newcastle (5f, AW) last time rates a clear career best, and a 3lb rise doesn't look prohibitive; yet to see out a galloping 6f completely convincingly, albeit not having yet tried to on going as quick as today's.

Whizzy Dizzy
A failure under patient tactics aside, she proved consistent last autumn and winter; timely return to 6f judged on recent keeping-on Tapeta runs, but she's still possibly high in the weights despite 1lb more off.

Robert Anstruther
Stayed on as strongly as any at Windsor latest (6f, good to firm) after a slow start; more galloping test at the trip is a likely plus, and just a case of whether he helps himself sufficiently; eased 1lb.

Black Missile
Unimproved for the addition of cheekpieces (retained here nonetheless) at Ripon in May, and wind surgery resorted to since; effectiveness over a galloping 6f yet to be tested, but 2lb lower mark looks competitive judged against the RPR of last autumn's Leicester debut (5f).

Rousham
Defied usual hard-pulling and hanging traits to win at Redcar in May (7f, good to firm), but held off mid-60s marks since, already headed when stumbling latest; replication of previous novice/maiden 6f form won't do.

Liquid Cooled
Won going away at Newcastle in March (6f, AW) for a perfect start to life in handicaps; refusal to settle and (latest) traffic issues offer excuses since, but less margin for error now stepped up beyond 0-60 class.
