Still yet to win a race and makes a start for a new yard here attempting to overcome a long absence. Usually a front runner but was well below form last time out.

C&D winner off a much higher mark a fair while ago and although he is capable of winning off this mark he is inconsistent. Not seen since the backend of last year and none of his wins have come off long breaks.

Had just the three wins last year and was well below form on his last two starts. The handicapper has cut him some slack here but would still need to show more although he has won over C&D.

Winner on the turf at Leicester (1m4f) in the early part of last season but has no experience of this surface. Yard do have a good record with this type though here and not totally written off back from a break.

The losing run continues to grow despite some consistent efforts on the AW including last time out at Wolverhampton over 1m4f. Could well improve for that run (first run back from a break) and did run into an improver but this is her first run on the surface.

C&D winner but that did come a long time ago and his recent form isn't anywhere near that level. Recent run here over further showed up how lazy he can be in-running and not one to totally trust.

Finally came good here when equipped with a visor for the first time after numerous tries on a surface that should suit on pedigree. Failed to back that win up in two subsequent starts but still looks in some sort of form and always likely to run best on this surface.

Another that is on a long losing run despite a fall in the weights. Showing no signs of really taking advantage though with the cheekpieces refitted here.

Runs from 6lb out of the handicap here and despite being a course winner he's shown little in his last three runs to recommend him here.

Forecasts

Inflexiball (9/4), Transmitting (9/4), Young Tom (5/2), Bushel (11/2), Thou Swell (6/1), Lean On Pete (10/1), Competent (11/1), Commissar (20/1), Carragold (28/1), Fire In Babylon (40/1)

Verdict

Two of the runners who looks to have a leading chance on form here Transmitting and INFLEXIBALL have not run here before but it may well be worth taking a chance on the latter, Thou Swell tends to show his best form here and comes into the equation with most of the others looking to have something find on form and coming back from breaks.
  1. Inflexiball
  2. Thou Swell
  3. Transmitting
