4/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 15-runner minor event at Leicester (6f, good, 6/1) 11 days ago. Headgear is retained so he needs considering back in handicap company.

9/1

Tricky customer. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. 13/2, didn't need to improve to win 8-runner handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to firm) 11 days ago by head from Bama Lama. Others remain more persuasive.

22/1

Ninth of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm, 5/2) 31 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort.

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: Tom McGuinness| OR: 45| D

11/4

Cheekpieces refitted when emphatic winner of 9-runner handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good to soft) 3 days ago. She can race off only a 3 lb higher mark here despite carrying a 4 lb penalty so another bold showing is on the cards.

Form: 7009-01

Uno Grande⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: Sir M Todd| OR: 52

33/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, ninth of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW) 51 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Not easy to make a case for.

Form: 0-69

Red Bravo^p¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: Mia Nicholls⁽⁷⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 45| D

33/1

Two wins from 51 Flat runs. Respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm, 22/1) 11 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Twenty eight runs since last win in 2020, though.

Form: 8-77857

A few with chances but Irish-challenger COFFEEMEANSCOFFEE is hard to side against given she can race off only a 3 lb higher mark than when an impressive recent scorer at Chepstow. Bama Lama heads the list of dangers with Oisin Murphy back in the saddle, although in-form duo The Cola Kid and Kyber Crystal need factoring in too.
