Landed a couple of races last summer and excuses can be made for her last couple of runs. Not without a chance if market suggests she is ready back from a break.
Yard continue to find the right opportunities for their horses and are operating at a 19 percent strike rate on the Flat since the turn of the year. This veteran hit the target two months ago and has not been disgraced off his new mark since. Takes a drop in class and is one of the more likely types to land this.
Has gone well on both starts for new yard, notably over C&D under today's rider. Has slipped below her last winning mark and is dropped in grade.
Winner of five AW races on different surfaces. Off the track since July and likely to need this first run over a trip short of his best.
Unexposed sort who has been apprentice ridden in all four starts prior to today. Has shown some ability and takes a drop in the weights. Form in maidens is only weak and he may need to drop further or improve a few pounds to take this.
C&D winner had looked in need of help from the handicapper until running well at Lingfield and taking another hike in the weights. Not disgraced off this mark last time but new yard need to find some improvement. The market is often informative with their runners.
Has not quite got home on his last two attempts at this trip and he is up in class here. Faces a stiff task in trying to improve his record of one win in 22 starts.
Winner of two AW races over 7f-1m off marks of 50. Latest came at Kempton under today's rider a month ago. Missed the break last time when finishing in mid-division. Cheekpieces are refitted this afternoon.
Sprang a 33/1 surprise in a first time visor when opening her account at the 21st attempt. Needs to find more off revised mark against better horses.

Mick Easterby is in irresistible form right now and saddles the veteran Space War for this. He has failed twice off this mark in two starts since a Lingfield victory and preference is for NOBLE ACT. Phil McEntee's filly ran well in a better race than this before finding 6f too sharp last time. Her last two victories have come from higher marks than this and she should be fitter for two runs back from a break. Isntshesomething was a revelation in a first time visor but this looks a lot hotter and Binky Blue may be more of a threat. The jockey booking has been a positive signal during the yard's recent good spell and she is well treated on her best form. Hellfire was progressive last season until having three runs in 25 days last September. She has been off the track since but a positive market signal would make her more appealing.
