Back to form when winning at Chelmsford last time, but that was over 6f and he needed all of that to win, so drop back in trip can be viewed a negative. But Is well drawn, and should be running on late, so chances of places at least.
Finishes her races off weakly and that was the case again here last time when fading out of it to finish sixth in a race very similar to today's. Others make more appeal.
Hard to win with, but the booking of David Probert (takes over from 7lb claimer) is eyecatching, and he went close over this C&D last time out. Stronger handling could be just what he needs, and he looks a major player here.
Ground to make up on Essaka on their running here last time out, and hard to see why she should reverse the form here. Possible her new yard might find a bit more improvement but on balance, others preferred.
Kept busy, and this will already be her fourth run in October. Consistent, handles the sand, and might well have won again Monday but for hanging badly. Has the plot draw here and should go well once more.
Drops in grade here, which may help, but she's been getting well beaten lately and needs this switch back to the sand to have a positive effect. Well handicapped if she does fire, so can't be totally ruled out, but stall 10 a big negative.
Not beaten too far here last time out and form ties her in closely with one or two here, but the bottom line with her is that she's now 19 without a win and doesn't look the most resolute.
Well beaten behind a few of these last time out and hard to see why he should do any better here, although is arguably better drawn today. Yard been struggling for winners for a while now and this one doesn't look like stopping the rot.
Beaten out of sight lately and although taking a big drop in class here, which will help, she's an infrequent winner and tends to save all her best form for Bath. Looks an unlikely winner.

Lady Joanna Vassa (11/4), Essaka (10/3), Justice Rock (4/1), Silver Penny (6/1), Mr Enthusiastic (8/1), Popsilca (11/1), Joshlee (11/1), Dalalah (20/1), Bubbly Bailey (33/1), Molly Jones (50/1)
ESSAKA caught the eye again last time out and the booking of David Probert to do the steering looks a very positive move, as he appears to need strong handling for that final effort. He can take this at the expense of the consistent Lady Joanna Vassa , who has the best of it draw-wise, and class dropper Justice Rock, who will be rattling home late on.
