Off the mark over 7f at Ayr (soft) on first run since being gelded last July. Finished runner-up on both turf starts this year including at Pontefract over 1m last time. Likely to run well again here.
Successful in a 6f maiden at Pontefract (good) last month on her second racecourse appearance. Yard have an 18% strike-rate of late (4/22) and interesting to see how she fares upped in trip on her handicap debut.
Short-head winner of a handicap over an extended 7f at Beverley (good-to-firm) off a 3lb lower mark on his penultimate outing but beaten off the same mark at Leicester subsequently and more needed here.
Successful over 7f at Musselburgh (good-to-firm) off a 5lb lower mark in August last year. Well beaten at Beverley last time out and has a bit to prove following a 2lb drop in the handicap.
Maiden after seven starts including when fifth on his first run since being gelded at Pontefract (good-to-firm) over 6f earlier this month. More needed if he's to get off the mark in this.
Finished fourth in a 7f Newmarket (good-to-firm) maiden last October but well held twice subsequently including on handicap debut at Leicester last time.
Winner of a Ripon (good) over 6f in September last year. Held in two subsequent handicap starts and making his seasonal debut on his first run since being gelded today.
Maiden after seven starts and best effort for this yard came when finishing 7L second over an extended 7f at Beverley (good-to-firm) last month. Beaten 11L at Musselburgh since and cheekpieces are tried for the first time today.

Il Sicario (7/2), Hollywood Harry (4/1), Heir of Excitement (9/2), Acadian Angel (9/2), Yarmouk (9/2), Our Charlie Brown (7/1), Chicago Star (10/1), Dapper Man (14/1), Uncle Charlie (14/1)
ACADIAN ANGEL broke her maiden on her most recent outing and can follow up by registering a second victory on her handicap debut here. The selection hails from a yard with an 18% strike-rate in recent times and she can get the better of Hollywood Harry who finished a decent second at Ayr last time out while top weight Heir Of Excitement is another to consider here.
