Won under today's pilot in early July on the AW at Wolverhampton and ran with credit last time out at Carlisle again under the same pilot. Could well give his running again over this sort of trip although he is 6lb above his last winning mark.
Can race very freely and that often hampers his chance and looks a difficult ride for an inexperienced pilot. Slow away last time and a very inconsistent sort.
Managed to win a claimer for his former yard in June but has been below form since that success. One of two C&D winners in this field he did look rather out of sorts last time out.
His best run this season came over C&D when he was second here in May and looked capable of taking advantage of a big drop in the weights. Has never really looked motivated to build on that run though with headgear on each time and is probably best watched here.
Often best when dictating he fallen a long way in the weights but has only flirted on a couple of occasions with looking as though he's returning to form. Just ticking over at best at the moment and hardly one to be confident about.
A strong pace certainly helped her show her best form again last time out after a lull since her dead-heat at Epsom last year off this mark. She's likely to get a race run to suit here and of this mark should be able to take a hand.
Has continued to edge his way down the weights and is way below his last winning mark although it's doubtful if he's capable of that sort of form now. Certainly not disgraced in his latest starts but will need a strongly run race to be effective over this trip.
Won a maiden on the AW for his former yard at Lingfield in January over a mile and has had three runs for this yard now. One of them showed plenty of promise over a mile at Thirsk but he's failed to back that up and others make more appeal now.
A consistent enough sort at this lower end of the scale his losing run is starting to build though and stands at 18. Might be one to take a look at for place purposes but his overall win ratio leaves a bit to be desired.
Still a maiden and now with a new trainer he's shaped better on the AW than on turf of late. Had looked as though he was being brought along with handicaps in mind but having been sold for just £800 in May he's made very little impression in that sphere even off a falling mark.
Winner of this race last year off a 3lb higher mark he's not won since but appears to be running respectably enough without looking in top form. He's worn blinkers on three of his last four starts (retained here) and should go well again on a course that appears to suit him.
Poor handicapper with his only career win having come in a Brighton handicap over 7f. Struggling for form at present and would be a surprise winner here.
His form in maidens and low-grade handicaps is modest at best and even off a basement mark he can't be given much of a chance in this.
Back from a six month break last time out but she remains a maiden and has shown very little that would make her of interest here.
Has been running over further than today's trip but with very little impact and has started at big prices on his last three starts and likely to do so again here.

Green Howard (4/1), Ingleby Spring (9/2), Tellovoi (6/1), Miss Goldsmith (6/1), Thornaby Nash (8/1), Cool Strutter (8/1), Rebel State (10/1), Broctune Papa Gio (11/1), Eium Mac (12/1), Know Your Name (14/1), Ellaal (16/1), Nonno Giulio (25/1), Dylan's Storm (28/1), Southview Lady (66/1), Sexton Blake (66/1), Breton Blues (66/1), Fledermaus (80/1)
A wide open race ridden by inexperienced riders and that doesn’t make for a very edifying betting contest. Know Your Name and Ingleby Spring are two contenders that enter the mix with the latter likely to get the race run to suit. It remains to be seen if Miss Goldsmith takes her chance under a penalty but if she does she looks capable of making a bold bid to capitalise on her recent win. BROCTUNE PAPA GIO won this last year and is back to defend his title over a course that suits him well and should go close off a mark that gives him a good chance.
