Has not won over this trip since 2012 and his last seven wins have been over 1m-1m2f. Tough and consistent but that may not be enough.
Given a superb ride by his young claimer last time and a 4lb rise seems fair enough. Top jockey booked this time but he faces more competition for the lead.
Winner on turf last summer off a higher mark and she may have needed the run when making her AW debut on her reappearance.
Has a good record here and, although her mark is slipping, she remains 6lb above her last winning mark. Has a tough draw to overcome and concedes a fitness advantage to her rivals.
Lost out to Fashaar here on stable debut when tactically outsmarted. Could be different this time with the benefit of that run.
3-30 record with two of the victories coming here. Last victory was in a C&D claimer and she ran to her current mark in a similar race last time. May be meeting more progressive types on this occasion.
12-race maiden who has dropped down the handicap to an attractive mark. Yard, 0-48 on the Flat for the past five seasons, have secured champion rider.
Has enough to find with Eacharn on latest running here and he may need to drop further down the weights to be competitive.
Has twice won around here (over 5f and 1m2f) and his best form has come over further most recently. Looks held by Eacharn on latest run.
Winner of two races in 2016 but only brief glimpses of that form since. Reappearance effort did not suggest there was about to be an imminent resurgence.
Landed four races in 2017 and is a triple course winner. Caught the eye on his return here two weeks ago and has to go on the shortlist with his mark looking workable.
Has shown promise in a couple of starts and he has looked the type to do better now handicapping. Jockey booking takes the eye so worth monitoring in the market.
C&D winner in November. Has not been beaten far on his last three starts off revised marks, but he may need to fall further in the weights and he looks held by a couple of these.
Down the field on each start and will face a stiff task from well out of the weights if making the lineup as first reserve.

Forecasts
Diable d'Or (4/1), Fashaar (9/2), Curly Girl (6/1), Eacharn (6/1), Dandys Gold (7/1), Red Avenger (15/2), Midnitemudcrabs (8/1), Tynamite (8/1), Honor Oak (16/1), Tom Dooley (16/1), Victorious Secret (20/1), Shelbe (20/1), See You Mush (20/1), Bracebridge Hall (20/1), Rock In Society (50/1)
Bracebridge Hall and Curly Girl are a couple worth watching in the market given the promise they have shown and their the jockey bookings for this. Tom Dooley is yet to win for this yard but his last run was encouraging and he looks set to go close. EACHARN has been running consistently well lately and his stable continue in excellent form. A run of his usual standard would make him hard to beat in an open looking contest. Fashaar dictated the pace when benefitting from a fine tactical ride last time to outpoint Diable D'Or. There promises to be more challengers for the lead this time and a bigger threat may come from Dandys Gold who scored off a higher mark on turf last year.
