Has proved most progressive since a tongue strap was fitted, completing his hat-trick at Pontefract 13 days ago, quickening to lead entering the final 1f and going clear before being eased. Can take another 5 lb rise in his stride back on all-weather.

Won over C&D in February but was out of depth making turf debut over 1¼m when last of 6 in a listed race at Epsom in April. Returns after 155 days off with more in his favour on handicap debut.

Off the mark on all-weather at this course (7f) in July and ran well when second over 1m at Thirsk in August. Best excused latest flop on softer going at York and could well bounce back returned to this venue for top connections.

Much better on all-weather than turf, winning over C&D in April before producing a career best when second of 11 over 7f here in August, finishing well. Flopped on turf last time but should relish this return to 1m and looks sure to bounce back. Not well drawn but still one to be positive about.

Off the mark at Epsom in first-time cheekpieces when dropped in grade in August but last of 6 in a handicap at Lingfield 20 days ago and now has something to prove.

Both his wins came over C&D, most recently at a lower level in February, but was a well-beaten tenth of 11 at Salisbury 27 days ago on first start in 3 months. Hard to weigh up.

Better on all-weather and has 3 wins here. Well enough weighted to take a hand but may prove vulnerable to less-exposed rivals at this trip (all career wins at 7f).

Solid all-weather performer who shaped as if needing run when sixth of 13 over 7f here 26 days ago and can make more impact back up to 1m here.

Twice a winner over this trip last year but didn't get home when sixth of 7 in a handicap at Windsor over 1¼m in July. Returns from 79 days off back at her ideal trip and she could be a big player if taking to all-weather.

Ended run of placed efforts when scoring at Southwell over this trip in April. Disappointed in cheekpieces both starts since, but latest outing came after 5 months off so entitled to come on for it and Billy Loughnane is back in the saddle here.

Better on all-weather and shaped well when fourth of 7 over C&D in July on return from absence. Trapped wide and below form over 7f here when last seen but now returns to 1m.

Recorded back-to-back thirds at Nottingham and Windsor over 1m in May and June though failed to stay when eighth of 10 in a novice over 11f here in August. Now drops back to 1m for handicap debut.

Won twice in Italy early last season, including in listed company at Rome, but hasn't recaptured that form. Cheekpieces now reapplied starting out for a new yard and is best watched in the betting.
