5/1
Handicapper has little to go on after just the two starts, better effort on second of them when third at Lingfield. Still looked very green there, so lots more to come, ground ought not be an issue and yard have an excellent 39% strike rate here.

11/1
Best effort of four so far came on debut at Haydock last July, second in a race that's worked out well, but she's not really gone on from that. Has been dropped 4lb for a moderate effort on reappearance but all the same, others make more appeal.

Ready winner on debut for Archie Watson last year but it's been all downhill since then, and was a well beaten last of 10 at Hamilton last week. Possible that better ground here might help but needs to get back on track now.

7/1
Improved on Newbury debut to score at Lingfield at the beginning of last month (7f), looking very much in need of a bit further. Likely ground conditions ought to pose no problems and she's one that comes here on the up.

5/1
Made all to score at Musselburgh (7f) last August and although efforts since then a bit mixed, it wasn't a bad run at Redcar over a trip possibly a bit far last time. Drop back to a mile looks ideal and with good jockey booking, looks of interest.

20/1
Only had the six starts so open to improvement, and ran a better race on reappearance at Beverley last month, staying on nicely late; worry would be the form of the yard, who haven't really got going as yet, but he's not without hope.

Wins in her turn and scored on second start for this yard at Lingfield last December. but she only put in a moderate effort at Beverley on latest start, so may need another run or two to put her straight.

One win in 15 starts, that coming on heavy ground at Nottingham last season, so won't care if the heavens do open, but on the flip side, he's not really progressing and connections now try a change of headgear to get him back on track.

4/1
Had the four starts and has pretty much run to a similar level on all of them, latest staying-on third at Beverley (7½f) looking like he was ready for a bit further. May face different ground here but likely has more to offer, and isn't discounted.

Was getting the hang of things towards the end of last year, winning one at Kempton (1m) and then running well on subsequent start. Run at Doncaster last month wil have blown a few cobwebs away and he could improve on that today.

Was found a pretty weak contest to get off the mark for Mick Channon at Esom last year but that's his only success in 11 starts and two runs last month suggest he's not really going forward at present.

Placed in a weakish contest at Beverley last August but going nowhere quickly in two starts last month, readily held both times. Others readily make more appeal.

Looked moderate in five starts for Joseph O'Brien last year and hasn't improved for a change of scenery, readily seen off in two starts last month. Hard to find many positives at present.

Placed a couple of times in weak races last year but didn't improve, and only beat one home on reappearance at Beverley last month. Makes little appeal here.

No more than a glimmer of ability in three starts last year and although this step up in trip might suit on his handicap debut, he's probably best watched all the same.

Verdict

In an open race, a chance is taken on OUT OF BREATH to appreciate the drop back to a mile to make all the running. He ran much better at Redcar over a trip probably a bit too far for him last time out, and can make the most of this opportunity under Ben Curtis to score. Oksana Astankova comes here off the back of a win and should appreciate this longer trip, so looks a danger. Transcript comes from a yard that do particularly well here and the handicapper has had very little to go on. Motamayiz comes here in peak form and cannot be discounted.
