7/1
Has improved for the step up to 7f and followed up some promising efforts in handicaps with a win at Chester in May. Well beaten here (7f) in a tougher race last time though and hasn't always looked as if he's crying out for this longer trip.

Very consistent sort who was rewarded with a win in the Thirsk Hunt Cup earlier this campaign. Ran well over C&D next time out in a competitive affair and soft ground was an excuse last time; should go well.

Back on a nice handicap mark but he's at his best in fairly testing conditions and looks unlikely to get any cut in the ground here given the forecast. Will be doing all his best work in the finish.

9/2
Listed winner in France and running well in defeat for his new yard, only up 1lb for a trio of decent efforts of late. Yard going well at present and the drop back in trip would appear to be in his favour here.

Just one win from 15 starts to date and that came on AW. Well beaten on each of his last three starts and yard struggling for form a little of late; others preferred.

Gained a third win of his career here (1m1f) last time out (Markazi third). Will need more from his revised mark dropped back in trip here and his better recent efforts have come with cut in the ground.

7f winner at Haydock just over a year ago and very inconsistent since, including in four starts for his new yard. Failed to back up a promising run at Chester last time and drops back in trip here; others preferred.

Won three times last year including at this venue (1m1f). Returned with a win at Redcar on seasonal return but hasn't been in the same form since. Career best needed here.

6/1
Yet to run a bad race in seven starts, though has only won once when landing a Redcar novice event on second outing. 1lb rise for his second last time looks a bit harsh but step back up in trip looks sure to suit.

7/1
Winner on AW as a juvenile and while he missed last season, he came on from his reappearance to win at Thirsk over this trip. Only beaten 2L by Poet's Dawn here last time (1m1f) and remains low mileage. Only up 1lb for his run last time.

Very tough sort to predict but certainly capable from this sort of handicap mark, as seen when bolting up at Nottingham earlier in the campaign.

Both his career wins have come at this venue and back below his last winning handicap mark after two below par efforts at Beverley. Particularly disappointing last time and hard to fancy on all known form.

Improved with every start and got his head in front in an 11-runner novice event at Thirsk last time out. Had a bit in hand that day and the handicapper hasn't gone over board with his opening mark; fascinating contender on ground that should suit.

Still a maiden after eight starts but ran with credit behind a smart sort at Thirsk last time. Seems at his best on fast ground and not discounted back in handicap company here.

Forecasts

Markazi (9/2), King Of Tonga (6/1), Furzig (7/1), Kaeso (7/1), Hayadh (7/1), Poet's Dawn (9/1), Irv (11/1), Commander Han (11/1), Give It Some Teddy (12/1), Greek Hero (14/1), Get Knotted (14/1), Humble Gratitude (16/1), International Man (20/1), King's Pavilion (25/1), Juanito Chico (33/1)

Verdict

MARKAZI ran well in defeat last time out behind Poet's Dawn and he may be able to reverse that form with a swing in the weights and back on quicker ground here. Greek Hero is less exposed than this field and can go well again while the consistent Hayadh isn't one to rule out with back on his favoured fast ground.
