Massimo Blue
Ran a blinder from the outside stall when beaten a short head and a neck into third of 11 at Kempton (6f, Polytrack; first-time cheekpieces) 19 days ago; has winning form on Tapeta and respected back down to Class 6.

Federal Envoy
Ran well when second of seven on stable debut at Ripon (6f, good) last month, but didn't back it up at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) last time; doesn't have a great draw and may need another furlong on this surface.

Back off the same mark as when winning over 7f here in September; has won fresh so the four-month absence not a major problem, but he has never tackled a trip this short before; blinkers are given a go.

Blue Lancero
Well held in all four starts and, after being gelded, has failed to beat a rival in two outings on the AW for this yard; needs a transformation.

Never Dark
Winner of nine races, all over 5f including two here, but has dropped 18lb below his last winning mark for a reason; didn't show enough on his recent return from nine months off to make him of immediate interest.

Watermelon Sugar
C&D winner who hasn't shown much lately, but is back off the same mark as when successful at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) in February and is better drawn than he was back here last time; worth a second look, especially if backed.

Master Dandy
Was back off his last winning mark when beaten a head and a nose into third of 12 over C&D last month (second and fourth have won since); up 1lb and drawn wider this time, but still one for the shortlist.

Crystal Dagger
12-race maiden who finished runner-up in four of her eight starts for Ed Walker, but she hasn't matched that form in four outings for this yard; best efforts have come at 7f.

Auntie Jo
Both wins have come at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta) for David O'Meara this year; not beaten far into third of ten on her second start for this yard at Musselburgh (5f, good) three weeks ago, but a suspicion that the minimum trip suits her best.

Brave Empire
Ran well when a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month, but didn't back it up at Pontefract (5f, good; first-time hood) a fortnight ago; opposable given his wide draw and a losing run of 22.

Candy Warhol
Front-runner who doesn't have the best strike-rate (3-48), but he is consistent and again ran well when fourth of 11 from the outside stall over C&D 15 days ago; may not face too much competition for the lead and could go well again.

White Umbrella
Not at her best lately but has become dangerously well handicapped, 7lb lower than when winning for the third time over C&D just over a year ago; ran with credit on a couple of occasions back here in the spring and may be worth chancing in the returning blinkers.
