C&D winner. 12/1, respectable fourth of 18 in handicap at York (6f, soft) 16 days ago. In good form and strongly respected having first go over this trip in a while.

9/1
C&D winner in May. 25/1, last of 10 in handicap at Sandown (8f, good) 6 days ago, looking none too keen. Has rather lost her way after a fine spell in the spring.

5/2
Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 10/1, good third of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good) 29 days ago. Should get a decent pace to aim at again and he's got strong claims back down in class.

7/1
Latest win here in May. 14/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) 17 days ago, slowly away and never landed a blow. Just 2 lb below that last successful mark now. One to consider.

10/1
Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. Off 11 weeks, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (6.9f, soft, 5/1) 26 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Could be much closer to his best form now.

18/1
Lightly-raced maiden. 11/1, first run since leaving Harry Charlton when sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 19 days ago. Her mark probably remains on the high side.
