J: Jason Watson

T: Michael Appleby

Six-time AW winner but he's 0-14 on turf and was only seventh of 17 back in this sphere at Thirsk (5f, good) last month; one of three runners for Mick Appleby and he has work to do back up in grade.

T: Michael Appleby

Won on AW in December (6f) and March (5f) but ran poorly at Wolverhampton four weeks ago; 0-13 on turf and others have more compelling profiles.

J: Luke Morris

T: Michael Appleby

Made it 2-2 over C&D when scraping home last month; up 2lb, but that latest run came after 79 days off so he could be a bit sharper for it; high on list.

C&D winner last February; back to winning ways with a front-running 6f win at Lingfield in December; not quite so good twice since and he needs the 11-week break to have freshened him up.

J: Callum Hutchinson

T: Michael Appleby

3-7 on the AW last year, his latest win coming at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) last month; has run well over C&D and it would not be a great surprise should he play a part in the returning tongue-tie.
