5/1 |
Pulsar Star
He was back up to 1m (turf) when a well-backed favourite last time, but looked to have no excuses in finishing last of six; trainer has won with three of his last five runners, two at big prices, but this gelding has stamina to prove over this far.

Kaaranah
Made it 3-3 over C&D when winning off a 3lb lower mark five weeks ago (ridden from off the pace by Jack Callan that night and may be again from stall 13); stable flying this month, with seven winners from its last 15 runners at the start of the day, and he holds good claims.

- S De Sousa / I Furtado

10/1 |
American State
Dual winner at around 1m early in the year, latterly off 1lb lower, who's been this far only once (C&D last backend), when well held; offered more last time but stamina remains a worry.

9/2 |
No Knee Never
Held off his revised mark on turf since two AW wins, including here, in April; wins have all come over shorter but he stays this far and is one to consider back on Tapeta.

- Harry Vigors / D M Simcock

8/1 |
Caledonian
Won a Tapeta nursery the only time he's run on the AW; the change of surface is the main hope, with him having struggled in three turf runs since coming back from nine months off.

- Jason Hart / K Frost

|
14/1 |
Symphony Of Joy
Struggled since handicapping this year and he blew the start at Wetherby last month before pulling too hard on Tapeta a fortnight ago; goes beyond 1m for the first time and will need to settle better upped from 7f.

- P Cosgrave / P D Evans

|
25/1 |
Eagle Day
Five-time course winner who failed to enhance a good record for Rossa Ryan when fluffing the start here a fortnight ago; has a competitive mark, though, and holds each-way claims under Pat Cosgrave.

- David Probert / G Nicholls

11/2 |
Dark Rosa
Sole handicap win came off this mark, the only time she's run on Tapeta, here (8.7f) last November; offered more on turf last time and she's one to consider back on the AW.

14/1 |
Imola
Now 2-3 over C&D having blown the start and hit a bit of traffic a fortnight ago; also had excuses here previously and she'd been consistent prior to that, but she has to prove this mark is within range.

- Look Back Smiling
- Alexandra Egan / N P Mulholland

|
28/1 |
Look Back Smiling
Better with each of his three runs for this yard and wasn't beaten far at Kempton a fortnight ago, despite hanging right; stays this far and is quite happy on Tapeta, so he's one to consider.

- Bellasio
- Oliver Stammers / Grant Tuer

5/1 |
Bellasio
Dual Carlisle winner who's recorded his best efforts on turf; showed the right attitude off 2lb lower last time but will need to at least match that form in this competitive handicap.

- Distinction
- P J Mcdonald / J Mackie

40/1 |
Distinction
This has always been his time of year and he's a dual C&D winner who's back on a handy mark; it wouldn't be a shock if he popped up.

- S D Bowen / K Scott

50/1 |
Concert Boy
Very rarely goes this far and it's a long time since he won at higher than 0-55 level; always a chance he'll miss the break too and he's some way down the pecking order.
