10st 10lb

J: Charlie Maggs

T: Patrick Neville

Went chasing last summer and he's won four times from 3m to 3m2f; now high in the ratings but still ran very well from the front at Carlisle last month (3m); unproven over this far and he does race up with the pace.

J: Paddy Hanlon

Perhaps in the grip of the assessor since the last of his four wins this term; Paddy Hanlon's 5lb claim may offer some help but this assignment looks difficult.

11st 9lb

J: Brian Hughes

T: Patrick Neville

Made very good progress in second half of last year, with the last two of his four wins gained over C&D (soft; also suited by good); returned from ten-week break with very respectable effort in 0-130 grade at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) last month and might still be on the upgrade.

10st 7lb

J: Brian Hughes

T: Patrick Neville

Made it four wins from his last five starts, and took his form to a new level, when winning easily in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Sedgefield (3m2f, soft) in December last time; 9lb higher in a better race today but he's clearly thriving and may well play another leading role.

12st 0lb

J: Brian Hughes

T: Patrick Neville

Back to form, notching his third win over fences, when readily justifying favouritism over C&D (soft) three weeks ago; now sits 8lb higher with cheekpieces added but is unexposed as a stayer; should have a major role to play in optimum conditions.
