Capitalised on a golden opportunity for easy win at 8-13 in a seller at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; that may have given his confidence a boost and he's unexposed in the retained tongue-tie/cheekpieces, but he's opposable on what he's achieved in handicaps this season.
7yo whose losing sequence goes back 21 races to September 2024 but he went close behind Yermanthere over C&D (good) last month and was a good third at Ayr (1m2f, good) last time; might not be far away.
8yo who capitalised on a reduced mark to win over C&D (good) last month before 7l second to easy winner in amateur jockeys' race at Pontefract (1m2f, good); he's not ruled out back here.
Runner-up at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in May on second start and won a novice at Salisbury (1m2f, good) last month; her latest form looks solid and this unexposed handicap newcomer could continue to progress; player.
Often ran well in 2yo campaign and he got off the mark on his reappearance in a novice at Redcar (7f, good to firm); it's possible he'll stay this far but there is a question mark on that score, and also one about his current form as he's been well beaten on handicaps on his last two starts.
11yo who has been up and down this season but has won twice, including over C&D (good), and he ran pretty well when third here (1m, good) last time; finished third in this last year and he could give a good account.
