Buzz Iceclear18
Age: 5|  Weight: 12-0| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford| OR:  99
Much improved for step up to 3m when making a successful handicap debut/reappearance at Ayr (soft) 18 days ago. Shorter trip here but ground conditions are likely to place the emphasis firmly on stamina. Open to further progress.

Age: 6|  Weight: 11-13| J: Conor Rabbitt(5)| T: S Corbett| OR:  98| C
Went close twice at Kelso at the start of the season so wasn't winning out of turn when seeing off 9 rivals over C&D 12 days ago. Should remain competitive off 5 lb higher.

Coventry29
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-12| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: Miss L Harrison| OR:  83
Just one win from 29 starts and that was back in 2021. Recent efforts have been disappointing. Easy to look elsewhere.

Palm Beach125
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-12| J: Miss Pippa Brown(7)| T: V Thompson| OR:  83
Ready winner of a 23f handicap at Worcester July for Ben Pauling. Remains with handicapping scope after an 8 lb rise if showing up in similar form on his first outing for Victor Thompson.

Perfect Polit121
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-8| J: Sean Quinlan| T: Lizzie Quinlan| OR:  79
Low-mileage 7-y-o who made no impact in his first 2 handicaps over the summer. Best watched unless the betting suggests otherwise.

Little Wren35
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-3| J: Tristan Durrell(3)| T: D Skelton| OR:  74
Little show in 3 qualifying runs over 2m but in top hands and could prove a totally different proposition now handicapping. Market confidence would look significant.

Solway Primrose69
Age: 11|  Weight: 10-3| J: Danny McMenamin| T: Miss L Harrison| OR:  74| C
Gained her breakthrough success over 23f here (heavy) in November 2023 but offered little on her return from a long absence at Uttoxeter in September. Can only watch at present.

Forecasts

Buzz Iceclear (9/4), Wee Alki (3/1), Little Wren (6/1), Palm Beach (7/1), Wise Move (8/1), The Resdev Tyke (12/1), Solway Primrose (20/1), Grand Voyage (20/1), Coventry (20/1), Ambassador (25/1), Perfect Poli (33/1)

Verdict

BUZZ ICECLEAR should have more to offer on the back of his Ayr handicap debut success and is taken to make light of a 5 lb rise. Little Wren is a potential improver in handicaps for Dan Skelton and would rate a big danger if the betting speaks for her. Wise Move is next on the list.
