Course winner just over a year ago and still above that mark now but running some promising races in defeat of late back on turf. Never looked quite as good over this far though and may struggle.
Maiden winner here but handicapper took no chances and been struggling off higher marks than this since. Promising runs here the last twice though and only up 1lb for a narrow defeat here last time; leading claims with top jockey back in the saddle.
Won twice on the AW over this trip and scored on debut for this yard when narrowly hanging on at Musselburgh. Likely to still be in form despite a poor effort at Catterick latest and each-way claims if he bounces back.
Rattled off a hat-trick last year including a 6f win here. Now on a mark below what he started that hat-trick on and handicapper has given him a real chance after some below par performances. Shaped well last time out at Kempton though and has won over 7f, so has to be of interest here.
C&D winner but not won since 2015 and well beaten on four outings this time around. On a fair mark and will like the forecast faster ground but others arrive in better form.
Sole win from 18 starts came on the AW at Wolverhampton earlier this year. Best turf efforts have come on softer ground and last two outings have been disappointing.
Still a maiden after 14 starts and his best efforts have come on the AW. Not certain to enjoy this drop back in trip and others preferred.
Showed ability in three maiden outings last year but no show in two handicap runs since being gelded. Looks hard to fancy at present.
Never a factor in her three maidens, having not even beaten a rival in the first two of those. Opening handicap mark surely looks insurmountable here. Needs to improve for the step back up in trip.
Beaten out of sight in three maiden starts, slowly away on each occasion and looks reliant on first-time blinkers working the oracle on handicap debut.
Showed nothing in a trio of maidens but improved to finish runner-up on handicap debut at Ffos Las. Couldn't back that up last time though and questions to answer for now.
Still a maiden after 18 starts but falling to a more workable mark now and ran well over C&D last time out. Seems to have improved for the fitting of blinkers and they're retained today. Solid each-way claims with a useful 7lb claimer in the saddle.
Returning from a significant absence from the course and refused to race at Chelmsford last time. Hard to fancy.
Beaten out of sight in all three maiden efforts and very hard to fancy on all known form. Wears first-time blinkers.
Still a maiden after nine starts but ran well over C&D last month. Couldn't build on that subsequently but perhaps worth giving another chance to back on faster ground.
Eight-time winner in his career and won over C&D back in 2013. Best recent efforts have come on the AW though and he's been out of form recently.
Forecasts
Babette (5/1), Caledonian Gold (6/1), Great Colaci (6/1), Tommy's Secret (13/2), Chetan (15/2), Sakhee's Jem (8/1), Slow To Hand (14/1), Nellie's Dancer (16/1), Wedgewood Estates (16/1), Tallulah's Quest (18/1), Roman Legion (20/1), Caribbean Spring (25/1), Swiftee (28/1), Solitary Sister (33/1), Little Indian (33/1), Dylan's Centenary (50/1)
SAKHEE'S JEM has been running well here of late and he may be able to gain his second win at the course with jockey Silvertre De Sousa back in the saddle. Caledonian Gold is still a maiden but has been running better of late while Great Colaci was disappointing last time but may bounce back.
- Sakhee's Jem
