Wins in his turn and it came around at Carlisle three starts ago, beaten off this mark two weeks ago when well beaten fifth of seven here over 1m.
Seven time career winner who edged out Kirkham by a neck at Thirsk (7f good to firm) in June, but was beaten by that rival back at the same track earlier this month. Well beaten and no impression in Beverley handicap over extended 7f.
Went close a couple of times earlier in the campaign and came good at Hamilton (1m½f, good to firm) two starts ago. Disappointing after being raised 5lb at Carlisle and Hamilton.
Has shown steady improvement in maiden company, including over 1m1f at Hamilton, but beaten 5¼L, fourth of ten last time.
Failed to win in 16 starts for Richard Fahey and her first start for this yard saw her finish sixth of 10 in a soft-ground Hamilton maiden.
0-23 on turf (although has won on A/W). Improved dramatically to finish second of 13, beaten a head behind Arcane Dancer at 22/1.
Form in maidens and handicaps can only be described as modest at best. Improved dramatically last time on return to 1m, when second of six at 66/1 in Thirsk maiden.
C&D winner whose form can be a little up and down although he's looked better since any headgear was removed. His win here came on soft ground off 4lb lower mark.
His latest win came from out of the blue when he won here in very easy fashion seeming to relish the soft ground after a very slow start. Well beaten last twice off this mark at Musselburgh and here.
Keeps threatening to win but consistently flatters to deceive although she did run over 6f last time out a distance that is too short for her now.
A 24-race maiden so not the most solid of propositions although she is going through a good spell at the moment without necessarily looking like winning. Third of 11, beaten only a neck behind Cosy Club at 12/1 on good ground.
Very lightly raced over the past few years and three starts this year have shown very little, including fifth of 10, beaten 5L last day here, three weeks ago.

Magic Journey (3/1), Chinese Spirit (9/2), Jessie Allan (6/1), Reinforced (9/1), Ss Vega (9/1), Monsieur Jimmy (11/1), Let Right Be Done (12/1), Miss Goldsmith (14/1), Cliff Bay (18/1), Tanawar (28/1), Newspeak (33/1), Palace Ball (50/1), Red Shadow (66/1)
Pace looks to be set by Reinforced, who will take the field along with Newspeak, Cliff Bay and Magic Journey following behind. Jessie Allan, third of 11, beaten only a neck behind Cosy Club at 12/1 on good ground and Reinforced, well beaten fifth of seven here over 1m last day, can make the frame, while MAGIC JOURNEY, win here came on soft ground off 4lb lower mark, can continue improvement here.
