8/1
Won back-to-back races around this time last year and well to suited a mile in soft conditions. She has worked her way back down to a feasible mark after some below par performances towards the end of last season and well beaten on all three starts for this yard but shouldn't be ruled out with the Champion Jockey in the saddle for the first time.

9/1
Not won since landing a Southwell maiden back at the start of 2016. Failed to place on three starts for this yard and she needs a strong pace to run at if she is going to get back on the scoresheet here. Unproven on soft ground and possibly in need of a step back up in trip.

Unplaced maiden in four starts for Marco Botti but finally off the mark for this yard with a win at Wolverhampton in September. Pulled up on subsequent start at Kempton and not been seen since so clearly had his issues and entitled to need this run. Well beaten on only turf start when fifth of seven in soft ground.

6/1
Not won since winning a maiden back in 2015. Shaped like a return to form was imminent on AW debut last time and a further drop in the weights looks lenient on that evidence. Sole win came with cut in the ground and claims if he can build on his most recent effort.

Mixed bag in four starts to date but best effort yet came in soft ground on second start and still unexposed at least but hard to imagine his handicap mark is any better than fair. Yard's runners often need their first start after a break.

2/1
All five of her wins have come around here and produced what has to be considered a career best off the back of a nine-month absence over C&D last week. Escapes a penalty for that success and due to go up 7lb when the assessor has his say so clearly well in. Bounce factor the only concern.

Won on debut but has struggled since and well beaten last time in soft ground last time. Plenty to prove at present.

Still a maiden and has struggled in handicap company. Not placed in any of his most recent eight starts and more exposed than some in here. Soft ground is an unknown and probably best watched.

Forecasts

Trulee Scrumptious (2/1), Balgair (7/2), Redgrave (5/1), Easy Code (6/1), My Lucille (8/1), Wings Of Esteem (9/1), Bizet (25/1), Ice Alert (33/1)

Verdict

TRULEE SCRUMPTIOUS will be very difficult to beat if she turns up in the same mood as her course and distance win last week. Easy Code left the impression he could be returning to some sort of form last time and looks on a fair mark while My Lucille came good around this time last year and gets the services of Jim Crowley who rides the course well.
