6/1
C&D winner last time by a narrow margin, but has been raised just 2lb as a result. That was only his second start over this trip and he should have more to offer.

Not beaten far in a Lingfield claimer last time but sole try at this trip came over C&D and wasn't fully convincing.

7/1
Has finished in the first two in his last four starts, including a C&D handicap last time out. Races off the same mark and should be winning a race of this nature soon.

Attempts at AW races for this yard have been poor and has been generally out of sorts despite slowly coming down in the handicap.

12/1
3/35 career record but with none of those victories on the AW is difficult to get too excited about, but she has placed here in the past and isn't totally discounted.

Age: 3|  Weight: 9-5| J: A Kirby| T: M L W Bell| OR:  70
14/1
Has improved since switching to handicaps/stepping up to this trip but still probably needs some further help from the handicapper before being seriously considered.

14/1
Hasn't placed in five attempts at the AW and no win at all since August 2015; looks exposed and others hold more convincing claims.

10/1
Progressed through three maidens and makes her handicap debut here off what should be a suitable enough mark and could improve again to be in the mix.

Age: 3|  Weight: 9-1| J: M Harley| T: W J Knight| OR:  66
16/1
Nine-race maiden who is yet to fully convince over this trip and needs to find plenty of improvement in order to get involved in this.

Ran encouragingly on stable debut at Lingfield in September but has returned to running moderately since, and was well-beaten at Newcastle latest despite being joint favourite.

Age: 6|  Weight: 8-11| J: Jack Osborn(7)| T: J Ryan| OR:  60| D
8/1
Has run to a good level on his last two starts, possibly still short of the level required to win this but could be on the premises.

Miss Mirabeauv6
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-8| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR:  59
5/1
Remains a maiden but ran a career-best to finish second at Wolverhampton last time. On the same mark here and a replication of that level of form would see her go close.

20/1
Nine-race maiden who was slightly better over this trip at Lingfield last time but still looks short of the required quality to win a race of this nature.

Miss M50
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-6| J: M Dwyer| T: W R Muir| OR:  57| CD
6/1
Secured her first win in a C&D maiden last time out, and is up just 3lb for that victory. Claims if able to build on that effort.

Forecasts

Miss Mirabeau (5/1), Dangerous Ends (6/1), Miss M (6/1), Choral Clan (7/1), The Gay Cavalier (8/1), Nevalyashka (10/1), Livella Fella (12/1), Mutineer (12/1), Hard Toffee (14/1), Spun Gold (14/1), Shimmering Light (14/1), Unit of Assessment (16/1), Thaqaffa (20/1), Zoffany Bay (20/1)

Verdict

This can go to DANGEROUS ENDS. Brett Johnson's charge is up 2lb for a C&D victory last time and given that was only his second start over 1m2f he should have more to offer over this trip, especially as he continues to steadily improve. He is taken to get the better of recent Wolverhampton runner-up Miss Mirabeau and handicap debutante Nevalyashka.
