Won four times already in 2019 and the last two have come over C&D including latest. 2lb rise does little to temper enthusiasm in current form.
Losing run now almost at three years and never better than eighth in four starts for this yard. Clearly regressing and easily opposed.
Stable/season debut at Wolverhampton over 1m½f not without promise as he was fifth of 12. If handling this longer trip he could improve on that.
Overall profile far from appealing but lone win did come here and evidence suggests this is his favourite track. 2lb higher than that win and could go well in a weak contest.
Battled to belated first career win at Kempton (1m4f) three starts back and only just touched off in third over 1m3f there latest. Should carry good recent form over here so must be respected.
C&D winner last August and now at a lower mark but that due to the fact she's unplaced in six since then including three more here. Hard to be confident on recent form.
Poor strike-rate although in good company in that respect. Only beaten 1¼L by in-form rival Muraaqeb over C&D latest and given he's now 6lb better off he should be considered. Doesn't always back up good runs however.
Only 1lb higher than C&D win last season although that largely due to four rather uninspired efforts since. Tongue-tie and cheekpieces now added so reasons to think she might spark back to life.
Fourth here in April followed by two thirds at a similar level on turf the last twice at Leicester and Yarmouth. One of the more in-form runners although draw certainly not ideal and may force jockey's hand to bowl along.
32-race maiden a neck behind Muraaqeb two starts back but 6L behind same rival since in disappointing 11th. Obviously can only be considered for each-way/place purposes.
Won just one of her 15 starts and 7L behind Muraaqeb latest when ninth of 15 over C&D. Easy enough to pass over then.
16-race maiden ran one of her better races at Kempton two starts back but never featured at Nottingham next. Overall profile unappealing.
35-race maiden well behind Muraaqeb twice lately here and makes no appeal.
0-19 on the Flat and returns to the Flat following a couple of poor runs over hurdles. No appeal here.
Beaten out of sight in three runs for current trainer since leaving Neil Mulholland's yard. Plenty to prove now.

Muraaqeb (7/2), Murhib (5/1), Cat Royale (5/1), Hidden Dream (7/1), Master Poet (7/1), Foxrush Take Time (8/1), Tilsworth Lukey (12/1), Lulu Star (12/1), Grasmere (12/1), Warning Light (20/1), Ronni Layne (25/1), It's How We Roll (33/1), Woggle (33/1), Officer Drivel (50/1), Herringswell (50/1), More Harry (50/1)
A race lacking strength in depth can go the way of the very much in-form MURAAQEB who holds a whole host of these on his two recent C&D wins. Murhib has been running pretty well at Kempton lately so may be the greatest danger although the unexposed Master Poet is also to be feared.
