C&D winner who gained reward for consistency when scoring at Nottingham last month. Found life tougher under a penalty when fifth of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good, 9/4) 43 days ago but is 2 lb lower this time.

Won for Robert Cowell at Lingfield in March but went the wrong way for that yard after. Right back on track after a stable switch when a nose second of 5 at Redcar (5f, good to firm) but not in the same form at Catterick last time. Could bounce back with tongue strap back on.

Winner at Yarmouth in June and has run respectably enough on his last 2 starts, most recently when fifth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, all-weather) 14 days ago. Others still make greater appeal for win purposes, though.

Forward-going sort who won 4 times when progressing in handicaps last year. Looked back in form earlier in the summer and switch to patient tactics seemed to backfire when fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Feasibly treated with blinkers reached for,

Won handicap at Nottingham in June then was fourth of 9 at Ascot in July before struggling at Goodwood later that month. Fared no better back on all-weather at Kempton last time and it's possible she's now gone off the boil.

Scored at Wolverhampton (5f) in May but below that form on last 4 starts, so has something to prove at present.

Went with more spark when fourth of 8 at Pontefract in first-time visor in August and has valid excuses for his last 2 efforts, trapped wider than ideal when sixth of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (5f, all-weather) 14 days ago. Mark has eased even further.

Improved when landing 5f Thirsk handicap in May before following up in 7-runner handicap at Musselburgh (5f) a month later. Ran respectably with the application of blinkers when sixth of 11 in handicap at Chester (5f) 63 days ago and he remains of interest.
