Twice a winner at this course from slightly higher marks last year and shaped as if in good form when fourth of 10 over 7f in a handicap at Southwell 20 days ago. One to take seriously for stable with 2 chances in the race.

Made the frame again when third of 10 in a classified stakes at Ripon 16 days ago but isn't operating at the level he was showing at the start of the season.

Good third of 12 in a handicap over 7f at Ffos Las 26 days ago but not quite so good last 2 starts. Back down in grade here but does have stamina to prove for this slightly longer trip.

Winless in 26 starts but ran better when second of 13 at Musselburgh 23 days ago. 3 lb rise needn't prevent him being a threat again but whether he's in the same form is the bigger question.

Winless from 9 starts and turned in dismal efforts in classified company last time. Cheekpieces removed and down in trip.

One of better races this year when third over C&D in August but ran below par when seventh of 10 in classified stakes at Ripon 16 days ago. Often hangs under pressure at this track.

Third at this course in July and produced creditable fourth of 13 in a 7f handicap at Newcastle 13 days ago, doing well off an ordinary gallop. Back up in trip today but often hampers herself by starting slowly and sometimes racing freely.

Yet to win in 17 starts and hard to be positive about either of last 2 runs. Now also steps up to a trip she's unproven at.

Came third of 6 here over 5f in June for Joey Ramsden, but last 2 efforts, including on debut for new yard last time, have been devoid of promise and she now tries a new trip with cheekpieces reapplied.
