Fair form without causing too much excitement both in maidens and bumpers prior to that, makes his handicap debut here but may find things too challenging with the opening mark he has been assigned.
Remains a maiden and his form in general is fairly inconsistent. Has his work cut out here on the basis of his two runs since being gelded.
C&D winner who has mainly been running very well this year. Only 7lb higher in the handicap then prior to two wins and a second, and could be capable of more on ground which should suit.
Has run well without progressing in three runs over 1m2f on the turf. This is easier than a race she played little part in at Leicester last time out and she should go close if repeating that level of form again.
Handicap winner two starts ago before perhaps not dealing with soft ground at Newbury last time. Needs to settle better in his races and wouldn't want too much additional rain.
Winner of a weak Lingfield maiden in March (1m2f, standard), but no impression since switched to handicaps and is left with something to prove now.
Two victories to date have come at a lower level than this and he needs to take his form to a new level in order to have a say.
Yet to get off the mark and difficult to fancy having been given no help by the handicapper following an unspectacular opening to his career in handicaps.
Not beaten far at Chepstow last time (1m2f, good to firm), and goes off the same mark here. Gives the impression he could have more to offer but needs to prove he acts in softer conditions, especially if there's further rain.
Winner on debut last year but has proven disappointing since, and steps up to this trip for the first time with his stamina to prove given his pedigree.

Though SQUIGGLEY doesn't seem to be the most progressive of fillies, the three times she has run over 1m2f on turf she has run a fine race, and with this looking easier than one of those races (at Leicester last time out), she could provide the answer so long as she prove she can handle some give in the ground. The handicapper has been kind to Fast And Hot and she is another to consider, ahead of dual-purpose performer Sporty Yankee.
