15/8

Thorough stayer who was collared late on over C&D last time, when 2lb lower. Bit more needed from this mark, but has realistic each-way claims.

13/8

Sole win came on heavy at Haydock (1m4f) last year, when 3lb lower. Returned from a lengthy break/being gelded to show that he retains ability at Nottingham in June. More needed from this mark, but not fully exposed, or ruled out.

7/1

Better on Fibresand, but has won a couple of times on turf (good/good to soft). Well held last time over 1m4f and has stamina to prove over this far.

5/1

Scored here on May over 1m4½f (good) , when 1lb higher. In-and-out since. Clear chance on her best efforts, but whether she will produce that is open to question, especially over this trip.

12/1

Won here in May (1m4½f, good to firm), when 1lb lower. Twice went close over that C&D in August, from today's mark. Well behind Archive over this trip last time, when weakening after leading for some time. Each-way claims if back on song.

Forecasts

Big Sigh (13/8), Archive (15/8), Something Brewing (4/1), Poetic Steps (5/1), Restive (7/1), Falcon's Fire (12/1)

Big Sigh suggested that he retains ability last time and he could go well after being given some time between his reappearance and this. However, SOMETHING BREWING is a likeable sort who ran well here over further last month and is given another chance, after a disappointment on heavy ground last time. Archive and Falcon's Fire are both respected.
