Comment: Held at 3-1 or shorter in her three runs but she went close in a Bath maiden (1m, firm) in May and her latest second at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm) was behind an impressive winner who made all; has been quietly progressive with her RPRs and she could have a bright future in handicaps.

Comment: Made all in a small-field 1m maiden at Bath (firm) in May and she found more progress when runner-up on handicap debut here (1m) the following month; still unexposed but her form cooled at Ascot last time and she has stamina to prove on this step back up in trip.

15/2

Comment: Won two 1m2f handicaps at Beverley (good/good to firm) this spring and she rallied for a respectable fourth in Class 4 at Chester last time; left Mark Walford since but she still has potential and should be suited by this return to a stiffer track; in the mix for new yard.

8/1

Comment: Makes the running or races prominently; 1m wins in Brighton novice and Nottingham handicap on first two turf starts last season and has held her form well since then; returned after 341 days off at Lingfield (1m1f, good) last week but was 13-8 favourite and she ran well to finish third behind a well-handicapped rival; should benefit from that run and she's respected in new headgear.

Comment: Has mixed record in eight starts but she won a Southwell handicap (7f, AW) in April and got back near best when runner-up at Haydock (1m2f, good) last time; got hampered on a couple of occasions in that race and has each-way claims if she can back that up.

14/1

Comment: Two wins at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) towards the end of last year; three solid efforts in middle-distance handicaps this season but she's now 0-7 on turf and needs to find something extra to get back on the scoresheet.

25/1

Comment: Record of 423213 in handicaps last season and the win came over C&D (good); still looks on workable mark but she reappeared with a tailed-off effort at Wetherby (1m2f, good to firm) in April and needs to bounce back after another break.

Comment: Unexposed gelding who comfortably justified long-odds-on favouritism in a Hamilton maiden last month; held in third on handicap debut at Haydock (1m6f, good), but he stayed on strongly and that form was boosted when the winner followed up in a Racing League event; looks interesting off only 1lb higher than last time and he's open to more progress on this drop back in grade.

Comment: Has form figures of 112 since switched to handicaps this season; held when 4-11 at Ffos Las (1m4f, good) and is 6lb higher here, but he still has potential and could resume his progress back up in trip; made all for his two wins but was ridden more patiently last time.

Comment: Made it 2-5 when keeping on well to land a Ffos Las handicap (1m6f, soft) last month; both wins have been in the mud and this is a different test on quicker ground, but she's still unexposed and a 4lb rise for her latest win looks fair; not ruled out.

Comment: Some creditable efforts in four handicaps (1m2f-1m4f) since May but he's still a maiden after seven starts and needs to find more improvement on this step up to 1m6f.

Comment: Brother to 1m4f-2m4f winner Coltrane (including Group 2; RPR 119); improved on his debut effort when a promising third at Haydock (1m4f, good) and he ran to a similar level when runner-up behind an impressive winner at Goodwood (1m6f, good to firm) last month; looks on fair mark now switched to a handicap and he could have a lot more to offer at staying trips.

Comment: 3-3 on AW (1m4f/1m6f) this spring but he's struggled back on turf in his last two runs; lost ground during a flag start at Ffos Las last time, but he's now 0-5 in this sphere and this looks a tough assignment.
