Much improved when easily winning 15-runner handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm) last week, making all. 8/13, just fourth of 7 in handicap at Ayr (5f, good to firm) on Monday.

9/2
Made a bright start for this yard, gaining a second career success at Wolverhampton (6f) in March. Positioned close to strong gallop when below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 15 days ago and better showing anticipated here.

7/1
Speedily-bred individual who shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when sixth in 8-runner novice at Wolverhampton (7f) 4 weeks ago. Hasn't matched that in pair of subsequent runs but switch to handicaps will see him in a better light on turf debut.

Winner at Newcastle (5f) in November. Good placed efforts both starts since, off 5 months prior to finishing third of 8 in handicap (7/2) at Southwell (5f) 25 days ago. Steps back up in trip now and he's respected.

22/1
Thrice-raced maiden. 14/1, fifth of 6 in novice at Kempton (6f) 34 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Switch to handicaps in her favour now and worth noting if the market speaks in her favour.

33/1
5/1, last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 33 days ago, never travelling well following a slow start. A return to forcing tactics can likely see him in a better light with blinkers back on.

Modest form on third of her 3 starts in 6f maiden/novice contests last summer. Out of her depth next time but offered very little when last of 9 on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (7.2f) in October. Big step forward required on return from 6 months off for new yard.

20/1
Lightly-raced maiden who was well backed making yard/handicap debut when 7 lengths fifth of 7 to Dark Sorceress in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 33 days ago, not knocked about. Entitled to sharpen up for that outing and she could yet have more to offer at this sort of level.

5/1
Built on more positive signs when shedding maiden tag from 3 lb lower mark at Chelmsford (6f) in March. Far from disgraced when fourth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 16/1) 8 days ago and she's a live each-way player back on turf.

Forecasts

City Of Strangers (6/5), Rumba Bay (9/2), Dark Sorceress (5/1), Art Of Fox (7/1), Monticristo Boy (14/1), Olympic Melody (20/1), Volcanic Dancer (22/1), Crangy (28/1), Inconspicuous (33/1), Rinky Tinky Tinky (40/1)

Verdict

CITY OF STRANGERS was just fourth at Ayr on Monday but remains well in under a penalty if turning out again. Monticristo Boy, following a good reappearance run on all-weather, and Rumba Bay are others to consider. Olympic Melody is another to note having been well backed last time.
