Debuts for an in-form yard and looks one to keep on the right side. Winner over this trip on latest start (for William Haggas) and very likely there is more to come. Shortlisted for success on handicap debut.

Comes into this on the back of two solid efforts over 1m4f and has leading claims if dropping back a couple of furlongs doesn't pose too much of an issue. A strong pace will suit ideally.

Generally in good heart but prefers a bit of give underfoot on turf and not been so good when switched to be tried on this surface. Others more convincing.

Cost €45,000 and related to several decent types. Modest efforts so far but possible improver now switched to handicaps. Yard going well so worth a check in the betting.

Winner over 1m here last winter but this year's form only modest. Not much improvement on recent return to action and hard to see her being in the main body of action when it matters.

Winner of a lads race here last year but we'll below that level of form this term. Been well held too many times to be forwarded for consideration.

Enjoyed a good spell on the Flat before switching codes. No joy over hurdles and two recent spins on the level left a bit be desired, so plenty to prove just now.

Goes well here but best form has been posted over 1m, so needs everything to go his way over a trip which extends him to the limit.

Still a maiden and on a stiff looking mark for what he's actually achieved up to now. Steps into the unknown regarding the trip, so reasons to be wary on this occasion.

Mixing it under both codes and capable on his day. Acts on this track but it's debatable whether this trip is short of his best. Risks attached.

Showed plenty of promise during the summer but form tailed off and latest efforts on heavy ground have been poor. Up in trip and unproven on the surface. Others preferred.

Still yet to win but comes here on the back of her best effort to date (rider forgot to weigh in previous outings otherwise her profile would be stronger). Place claims again if taking a further step forward.

Bred to appreciate this type of surface and needs to adapt quickly after three moderate efforts in turf. Big improvement needed.

1st reserve: Latest second in an apprentices race was a solid performance but he's untried over this far and plenty prove on these terms despite a proven liking for the course.

Verdict

This could be a good opportunity for CARRIED to shine. The gelding ran a blinder in each of his last two starts but may well flourish now dropped back to an extended 1m2f. Straw Hat looks the better option from his stable's two intended runners, while Misty Morning also appeals as one that can make the frame if stiriding out to her best. Support for Kirk's Dancer would also be dangerous to ignore.
