WIN @

Led until a furlong out over 7 furlongs at Kempton last time out and has a good draw from stall 2 to take them along today with the drop in trip aiding that cause.

WIN @

3 times a winner in 10 races over hurdles, most recently over a furlong and a half shorter at Catterick in February 2024. A beaten favourite over course and distance following that win off today's mark of 114 in a Class 4 and well down the field next time out and when last seen over course and distance in April in Class 2 company. This drop back to Class 4 will suit and the first time cheekpieces could spark some improvement.

EW @

Beat a 1-3 odds on favourite over this trip at Newcastle on racecourse debut in March and that form was boosted when the runner-up won cosily next time out. 8th of 9 when sent off favourite at Pontefract next time when the heavy ground would not have suited. Will prefer this ground and could bounce back.

WIN @

3 wins and placed 10 times in 20 races over fences. The 3 wins have come from marks of 136 and 140 and races off 129 here and should appreciate the drop in trip after tiring close to home over 2 and a half miles and heavy ground at Newcastle last month.

EW @

A previous winner here over shorter off a mark of 115 and is a winner over further, at Leicester off a mark of 119. Dropped to a mark of 99 here and whilst disappointing in all 3 starts this year, the combination of the falling mark and the first time blinkers offer limited appeal.

WIN @

The only course and distance winner in the field back in August 2022. 3 more wins over hurdles have followed that success with the most recent over shorter at Fakenham on penultimate start. Disappointed over this trip at Stratford but the race may have come a little too soon following that win.

WIN @

Second of four when last seen over course and distance in January 2024 racing off a pound higher mark beaten half a length. That was in a Class 3 Fillies Handicap and she may find this Class 4 a little easier. Her next 3 races were all on the Wolverhampton tapeta, over this trip and placed in 2 of those races. Unsuited by the wide draw (13 of 13) when last seen at Lingfield in March and she will welcome the return to the saddle of Billy Loughane, who missed the last race but has ridden her 7 times, winning one and placed 4 times.

WIN @

Won over 7 furlongs here 3 weeks ago and finished third over the extended mile at Wolverhampton 3 races back to suggest the step up in trip will suit. Only 3 years old, lightly raced, unexposed and plenty of scope for improvement.

WIN @

Won over course and distance off this mark of 66 in March 2023 and just the 4 further races in 2023 culminating over this trip at Southwell in June 2023. Not seen again since a keeping on 4th of 10 over a mile and a quarter at Lingfield last month. She will come on for that run, following a lengthy absence of 300 days and welcome the return to this track where she has a win and two placed efforts in 3 attempts.
