3-time Wolverhampton winner who typically gave his running when fourth of 6 at Bath last time, though is again likely to face competition for the lead.
|
Capitalised on a much-reduced mark with back-to-back successes at Redcar/Thirsk but was ridden more prominently in her pursuit of a hat-trick when fourth at Nottingham on Wednesday. Remains well treated on her old form, though, and can regain the winning thread for yard that excels with this type.
|
Shrewd new yard were quick to exploit a handy-looking mark, making it a quickfire double under a penalty in an uncompetitive event at Salisbury last month, but she found life tougher off 8 lb higher in a better race at Windsor when bidding for the hat-trick.
|
Successful on his latest turf start and while below form on the all-weather in early-February, the handicapper has at least given him a chance. Engaged 3.30 Thirsk Friday.
|
Hasn't offered much on turf since his debut run, and having finished runner-up over 6f at Southwell on penultimate start, he wasn't in the same form/state of mind when finishing mid-field in a handicap there last time.
|
Followed success in this grade at Ripon with a creditable fourth in a slightly better C&D handicap last summer. Has probably needed both his runs this season and merits serious consideration now 2 lb below his last successful mark.
|
Made it 2 wins from 4 starts when successful in a similar event at Leicester last time, going through the race in a manner that suggests a 2 lb rise may not be insurmountable, and another good performance is expected from a useful-looking draw.
|
Still seeking a first win for his current yard, and it's hard to be confident that it'll come here, only running respectably when fifth of 11 at Redcar (7f) last time. Tongue strap goes back on.
|
Finished third in this grade at Newcastle on penultimate start for Nigel Tinkler, but he was beaten by more than a lack of fitness or stamina over 7f on his return/stable debut and it's hardly a sign of confidence that a first-time visor is now fitted.
|
Couldn't build on the promise of his previous run when sixth of 8 at Ripon last time (had won the race twice previously) and he doesn't look at the top of his game at present.
|
Previous 4 victories have all come at Southwell, the latest over 7f on penultimate start, but he did perform with credit when fourth behind a fair trio on return to turf at Newmarket last time.
|
Maiden hit the frame in higher grade handicaps as 3-y-o, and though back up in grade following a creditable third in 0-55 at Leicester last time, she could be suited by a well-run 6f.
|
Winner over 5f here this time last year, he's at least worth another go at this trip having shaped as though amiss at Thirsk 3 weeks ago, for all stall 16 doesn't look ideal.
|
Maiden who finished third at Redcar early last month, but that form hardly looks robust, and he never landed a blow in a similar event to this at Ayr on his latest start.
|
On a fair mark on the best of his all-weather form, going close at Southwell in mid-April, but he extended his losing record on turf (0-12) when sixth of 9 at Beverley last time.
|
Extended a long losing run with a typical performance back on turf at Thirsk last time, slowly away and never nearer than at the finish when 8 lengths sixth behind Run This Way.

Forecasts
Run This Way (7/2), Instant Bond (5/1), Candy Warhol (7/1), Melissa Honey (8/1), Moonhall Lass (8/1), Bibendum (8/1), Mickey Mongoose (10/1), Hurstwood (12/1), Mu Mu Land (12/1), Brave Empire (16/1), Asadjumeirah (25/1), Canaria Sun (25/1), Desert Master (25/1), Ticktyboo (33/1), Roundhay Park (50/1), Solar Biricz (50/1)
Plenty in with a chance but RUN THIS WAY is taken to resume winning ways. Instant Bond moved through the race well at Leicester last time and may go close again, while Roundhay Park should do better with a couple of runs under his belt.
