Doncaster winner at this trip in April but yet to prove he is as good on AW, fading tamely over a mile at this track in December.

Gamely held on to score over course and distance on Monday but will have it all to do here under a penalty.

Mr Morse²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: D Swift| T: B Ellison| OR: 65

8/1

Really pleasing attitude to score at the first time of asking on AW over 6f here last month. Front trio well clear that day and must hold strong claims of following up.

Form: 63-

Alpha Tauri¹⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 9-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Smith| OR: 65

16/1

Likeable veteran hit the mark here in November but has been well held in two subsequent runs, goes back up to 7f here.

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: L P Keniry| T: Mrs L C Jewell| OR: 63

8/1

Ran well for a long way over 1m1f at Wolverhampton just before Christmas. That was an improved effort and could get a handy lead now dropped in trip, recent AW record is a big concern.

Black Hambleton²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Connor Beasley| T: B Smart| OR: 63

66/1

Four-year-old makes AW bow here, four runs in turf do not inspire much confidence although best efforts have come at around this trip.

Secret Glance²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Adam Beschizza| T: R Rowe| OR: 62

Justice Pleasing^p⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Ben Sanderson⁽⁷⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 56

14/1

Generally running consistently in four starts for this trainer and got off the mark over 6f at Newcastle last month. Ben Sanderson takes of a handy 7lbs again and he has his chance to follow up.

Tasaaboq^b,h,t⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Callum Shepherd⁽³⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 54

12/1

Another for whom the wins have been elusive, not beaten far over C&D last month in a blanket for the places. Can get involved again.

Form: 114257

Autumn Tonic^b¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: A Mullen| T: T D Barron| OR: 52

14/1

Closely matched with Tasaaboq on last week's running, would be aided with a smarter break this time and not easy to rule out of the equation.

Essenaitch (9/2), Unnoticed (9/2), Secret Glance (5/1), Kafeel (8/1), Mr Morse (8/1), Baileys Pursuit (12/1), Tasaaboq (12/1), Cascading Stars (12/1), Justice Pleasing (14/1), Autumn Tonic (14/1), Alpha Tauri (16/1), Call Out Loud (20/1), Black Hambleton (66/1)

MR MORSE was a pleasing winner on his first AW start here last month, showing a gutsy attitude to repel a pair of challengers, and he looks worthy of another chance. Unnoticed went close here on his penultimate run and while he has since failed to follow up at Newcastle but is given a chance to make amends now back at this venue. Justice Pleasing meanwhile was victorious up at Newcastle last time and go close again. Tasaaboq and Autumn Tonic are closely matched on form from last week and both can have a say in a tricky opener while Cascading Stars rarely runs a bad race and could gain place money. 1. Mr Morse 2.
