Ex-Irish maiden winner; hard to interpret two subsequent UK runs (badly hampered in first and field split into three on his final start). Looks a little high in the handicap but chances if everything goes his way.
Followed up decent second place at Beverley by disappointing last time out at the same course and distance.. Only win came in a claimer at the back end of last season after struggling in handicaps. Not impossible but unlikely to see him competitive.
Game and consistent. Did not have to be at his best to land a handicap at Musselburgh for previous trainer off a 1lb lower mark four starts ago. Not ideally drawn but one to consider given fair recent form.
Looks nicely weighted for this contest and put in one of his usually solid efforts last time out at Thirsk. Expected ground may be a little too quick but expected to run a decent race though draw is a slight worry.
Slight return to form last time out at Nottingham but has failed to repeat his good Wolverhampton success 444 days ago and perhaps best left out of calculations.
Very consistent but still has only one win to his name from 19 starts. Encouraging run last time out at Doncaster over seven furlongs. Return to a mile and faster expected ground in his favour but may have to settle for minor honours.
Has been on the upgrade of late and his recent second place at Chelmsford possibly eclipsing his winning performance at Wetherby two starts ago. despite losing a shoe. Needs to be considered.
Disappointed on her last two runs but a repeat of her performance at Pontefract three starts ago over this trip would give her every chance. Not to be dismissed lightly.
Seems to have lost his way after some solid, consistent performances this time last year. Back on a handy mark but needs to show his well being before being trusted to put his best foot forward.
Struggled but was mainly consistent in handicaps before winning a seller over course and distance last season. May struggle on seasonal reappearance in this company.
Back on a winning mark but three runs this year have been disappointing. Not certain he stays a mile and other preferred.
More encouraging run last time out over course and distance after tailing off on her reappearance for new connections. Has a chance based on some of her best form for Clive Cox last season but may need further than this mile trip.
Fairly consistent but not shown enough recent good form to warrant serious consideration despite looking on a fair handicap mark. Step up in trip not ideal either.
Not the most consistent of geldings and hard to make a case for him here despite running a fair race last time out at Newcastle over this trip.

ZODLAKOS can return to winning ways after coming up short recently at Chelmsford and seems to be in the form of his life. Jo's Girl is an interesting contender and if she can put two below par runs behind her can run a big race. Tukhoom may not be up to winning this but has excellent place claims based on his overall form profile.
