Ran well in three outings as a juvenile when trained by Gary Moore, he returned from a lengthy break at Beverley earlier this month and shaped with plenty of promise and will certainly come on from that run. One well worth a second look here.
Remains a maiden after 12 starts but has shown plenty of promise at times and clearly has the ability to pick up a small prize this season. Likes to race up with the pace and is a solid each-way proposition this afternoon.
Another fair maiden who has run into the frame on several occasions but has so far failed to reach the winners' enclosure. Staying on when beaten just over a length in a similar race at Carlisle last time, she has decent each-way claims.
Has only had the four runs to date but she is running into form and is one for any shortlist in this contest. No match for runaway winner Benjamin Thomas at Catterick in June, she was again a well-beaten second at Redcar last time and will not be far away.
Sprinter who was initially trained by William Haggas has been placed in five of her 12 outings to date, but was a well-beaten last of 17 at Thirsk in a 6f handicap last time. Needs a better showing this afternoon.
A decent third over 6f on her debut at Ffos Las last August, she has shown plenty of promise in all subsequent starts over this 6f trip but remains a maiden. Will need to step things up a little.
Placed twice in 15 starts and his stable has been in pretty good form recently and has a decent record in this race. Ran over an extended mile last time and the run is best forgotten as his rider lost an iron on leaving the stalls. Back sprinting and could run a big race.
Has a second and a third place to his name from 12 starts but that all-important first victory has so far eluded him. Beaten just under 8L at Hamilton last month when returning from a 12 month break, he will come on from that run.
Has had six races to date between 6f and a mile but has so far failed to get himself into the placings.Yet to start a race at odds of less than 14/1, he has it all to do here.

Rapid Ranger will have come on a bundle from his recent return and must have a decent chance in this finale. Granny Roz has been second in each of her last two races but on both occasions she has trailed the winner by a clear margin. However, the form is in the book and she will have plenty of followers. Hamidans Girl and Tagur are sure to give a good account of themselves, but the vote goes to RYEDALE RIO. His stable has won this race a couple of times in recent years and he certainly catches the eye here, returning to sprinting after a couple of runs over further.
