16-race maiden who has struggled on his two starts since going down at Ayr. Forecast quicker ground may be a help.

Winner of 11 Aw races but yet to make the frame on turf. Claimed out of a seller for £6,000 last time and in good hands but probably best watched for now.

Yet to tackle this distance but shapes as though it will suit and dam is an influence for stamina. Entitled to respect with yard going well.

Strategically placed and astutely ridden to land two of her last four. Has more on her plate now off this mark but she has fewer questions to answer than most in this.

3/1
One win in 23 races and sidestepped a race at Newmarket last week following rain. Down to a mark which has produced his two best recent runs and not without a chance in a weak contest.

Winner of four Class Six races and 0-16 in this grade. Tends to produce consistent performances and nicely weighted in what is a weak race for this level.

Forecasts

Luv U Whatever (9/4), Longside (3/1), Indy (7/2), Ice Galley (9/2), Mcvicar (5/1), Surround Sound (6/1), All You (6/1), Percys Princess (9/1), Up Ten Down Two (14/1)

Verdict

With no forecast for rain it is harder to further the claims of Indy who faces his easiest task for some time off an attractive mark. Ice Galley and Longside are a couple who will appreciate the quicker ground and both have dropped to marks which should make them more competitive. Percys Princess will find this tougher but at least is running to form as is Surround Sound. McVicar has claims on his 2016 efforts and an impressive win over hurdles in March but an absence since makes him harder to recommend. ALL YOU may be the answer to a tricky contest as he steps up to a trip which could produce some improvement. He has looked ready to win lately and his yard have been enjoying a good run.
