7/2

Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. Wasted no time getting back on track when third of 9 in handicap at Goodwood (9f, good to firm, 11/1) 23 days ago. Yet to get his head in front on turf, however.

5/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 12/1, not disgraced when sixth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (16f), finding test too much. Significantly back down in trip after 5 months off and may well need this outing.

Form: 244-436

9/2

9/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fared no better when seventh of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f), slowly away. First run for yard after leaving Kevin Frost after 4 months off and interesting to see what the market makes of him.

Form: 600-077

3/1

Showed improved form to get off the mark in clearcut fashion in 11-runner handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 3/1) 10 days ago, staying on to lead last ½f. Fancied to be in the mix again nudged up 4 lb.

Form: 536-261

16/5

C&D winner. 10/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (11.4f, good to soft) 20 days ago, weakening 2f out. Dropped to a handy mark and must enter calculations with a top claimer on board.

11/1

Dual C&D winner this year, latest in May. 6/1, struggled in a better race when seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (11.4f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Forecasts

Naasma (3/1), Carp Kid (16/5), English Spirit (7/2), Snag It (9/2), Oriental Art (5/1), Mr Zee (11/1)

Naasma will no doubt be popular after her breakthrough success at Lingfield recently, but she may have to play second fiddle to CARP KID, who has dropped to a handy mark and with Billy Loughnane on board for the first time, John Flint's 8-y-o can notch a third course success. English Spirit and recent dual C&D winner Mr Zee can battle out third spot.
