13 races without success since 2018 but has come down the weights and looked on the way back when close fourth at Newcastle last time on third start for current yard.
Last won at Chester last summer off 2lb lower mark. Shaped encouragingly first two runs this term before blew chance at start latest when well beaten at Ripon. Capable if on a going day but not easy to predict.
Decent juvenile in 2018 when won valuable Doncaster sales race. Went close last term without getting head in front but disappointing both starts this summer and returns now following wind surgery with a bit to prove.
Three of four wins have come at this track including over C&D in May last year off 4lb lower. Fair sixth on seasonal return for Andrew Hughes at Curragh and makes debut for new handler here. Solid chance if fully wound up.
Did well last year winning both starts over 6f. Solid efforts in handicap company first two starts this seaon and almost certainly failed to stay 7f last time when well beaten at Doncaster.
Rock solid placed efforts last three starts inlcuding when just edged out at York recently. Up total of 4lb despite failing to win but still fairly weighted on pick of old form and should again be thereabouts.
Doncaster 6f maiden winner in 2018 then out of luck last term for both James Bethell and Paul Midgely. Made ideal start for new handler when winning in good style over C&D last month and raised 7lb for that. One for the shortlist.
Stuck to her task really well when just holding on over 7f at Ayr last time on second start of campaign having won at 6f and 5f in the past. Sure to race handy off 4lb higher and comes here in good form.
6f Southwell maiden winner last year for Jamie Osborne then gelded during winter and joined current yard. Showed pace to halfway before weakening on seasonal bow at Haydock last month. 2lb lower and should strip fitter but more needed to score.
Both career wins have come over C&D and handles soft ground well. Modest first two runs in Ireland this summer and now makes debut for new handler. Return to this venue helps but has a bit to prove on latest efforts.
Ran uncharacteristically poor race when last of 11 over C&D last time out but had run well here when third in a fair handicap last year. Tumbling down the weights and shaped with promise first run of the term but others make more appeal.
Stable companion of Three Coins. Ideally suited by plenty of give in the ground as showed when winning Ayr Bronze Cup in September 2018. Out of luck since then and now 17lb lower. Downpour would greatly aid prospects.

There was plenty to like about the way EDGEWOOD won over C&D last time on his first start for Julie Camacho. He won with plenty in hand and despite a 7lb higher mark looks the one to beat if in a similar mood. Medicine Jack has been knocking on the door of late and could be a serious danger, while Three Coins and Jordan Electrics, both winners last time out, like to take them along so there should be no hanging about. Quick Look is worth a second glance having missed the kick last time but ran well on his previous two starts. He could bustle them all up if things drop his way this time.
