From last year's winning stable he got his season back on the rails last time out at Beverley although he had no luck in running at all (short of room all the way up the home straight). Kept on the same mark here (below his last winning one) he must have a chance of going close even over a trip that looks a little short of his best.
A drop back to 6f appeared to suit him well when he won at Hamilton in June with the cheekpieces back on. Has run creditable on his last two start (one over further) and whilst he can operate over this 7f all his best form is over shorter.
From a yard that are struggling for winners this year and although she probably failed to stay the longer trip last time out her last two runs have been below par and leave her with something to find here.
Has been incredibly consistent since November last year and hasn't finished out of the first three in nine runs in that period with four wins to his name. Showed that he could win on turf when taking advantage of a much lower mark on that surface at Thirsk in June over a mile and raised 10lb for that effort. His one subsequent AW effort off the same mark showed that he can be competitive off this mark and he should be in the mix again here.
A lower grade and a smaller field may well have been the keys to a better run last time out so it remains to be seen if the scenario she faces here suits her so well. She is now back below her last winning mark and may be able to play a part here over a shorter trip.
A return to this track could well be a plus here as her last three visits have seen her go 221 although the win did come off a 5lb lower mark. Her form of late has looked a little below par but she may well be able to bounce back at a track that suits her well.
Back in the same tongue-tie and hood combination that had sparked his previous win he improved a little to take a 7f handicap at Beverley on his penultimate start although he did get the run of the race. Ran well again last time out under a penalty over the same C&D as his last win just failing to follow-up under another attacking ride from today's pilot and will be dangerous if he gets to lead again.
His best form this year came over C&D on heavy ground back in June off a 2lb higher mark. Has not followed that run up though and has looked a rather quirky individual in a couple of runs since and may be best treated with caution.
A course winner who is rather hard to predict with his recent form being modest and he definitely failed to come on for his recent comeback run at Haydock finishing well beaten.
Scored back-to-back victories last year in August off marks of 53 and 59 and looked as though there was more to come but he wasn't seen again. Looked as though he's needed his two runs so far on the comeback trail but there was plenty to like about his run last time out at Beverley and with that under his belt he could be one to look out for here as he's likely to be capable of getting close to last year's form off this mark.

Worlds His Oyster (9/2), Inexes (9/2), Kenstone (5/1), El Principe (11/2), Big Time Dancer (6/1), Silvery Moon (7/1), Invermere (8/1), Forever A Lady (11/1), Mustaqbal (16/1), Toboggan's Fire (18/1), Baltic Prince (40/1)
Just about the best race on the card and it should prove a competitive one with plenty having chances. Kenstone has certainly shown some progressive form on turf/AW and has shown that he can operate off this mark with El Principe being another hat is in fine form at the moment although he has had the run of the last twice. Big Time Dancer may now be at full fitness after two comeback runs with C&D winner Silvery Moon looking as though he could do with softer ground. WORLDS HIS OYSTER comes from last year’s winning stable and did look unlucky last timeout and looks to go close off this mark.
