Dual C&D winner who is 9lb lower than the more recent of those, in March 2017. Below par last twice, but not written off from this mark if he can return to the form of his September run here over 1m.
0-19, seven of those being on AW. Drops 2lb after a decent effort at Wolverhampton last time. Not ruled out if able to repeat that, but not easy to be confident she will.
A light of former days but could still be given a chance from his continued receding mark if matching several efforts from earlier this year. Hard to be confident that he will, however.
Promised that he may still be able to pick up some prize money when fifth on his return from over two years off in April. Below that level on stable debut when last seen in May. 2lb drop won't harm and not written off.
Yet to make the frame in six attempts. Still early days, however, and is 1lb lower than when beaten just over 2L last time at Wolverhampton (7f). Could make some each-way appeal.
Closest he came to winning for Tracy Waggott came over C&D last year, although he ran a couple of better races after on turf. Not seen for over 17-months and reappears after wind surgery. Watch.
Beaten a nose here over 1m from this mark in September. Held from just 1lb higher in all three starts since. Visor now tried, as well as drop back in trip, in the hope of inducing revival.
Won a similarly low-grade contest at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) from this mark in July and also beaten just ½L here over 1m from this mark two starts ago. Below that last time, but each-way claims.
Plenty of modest form, but better effort when a head second here over 1m from this mark last time. Claims if she can repeat that, but can't be confident.
Has a squeak based on his C&D run two starts ago, but otherwise it has been a tale of woe for some time and it is hard to enthuse about him.
Comfortably held twice here over 6f recently from higher marks. Yet to convince over this far, but handicapper now giving him a chance. Not ruled out.
All four AW wins have been on Tapeta at Wolverhampton. Did also win here on turf. 1lb lower than his last success and back in better form last time, so not ruled out.
Moderate form and well held on return from wind surgery last time. Drops 3lb but plenty to prove.

False Id (5/1), Sir Lancelott (11/2), Justice Pleasing (11/2), Betty Grable (7/1), Kavora (15/2), Cool Echo (8/1), Clary (10/1), Merdon Castle (12/1), Campion (12/1), Let Right Be Done (14/1), Nutopia (20/1), Burns Supper (25/1), Moonbi Creek (33/1), Sandstream (100/1)
Plenty of 'ifs' and 'buts' here and the one who perhaps appeals most is KAVORA, who has run well twice here of late and would not be winning out of turn. Justice Pleasing would have claims if back to his form here from not so long ago, while Cool Echo arrives in decent nick and is not ruled out. Nutopia, Clary, False Id, Sir Lancelott and Campion are others of interest.
