Comment: Good staying-on third in a Cartmel mares' Class 3 on last month's return (2m1f, good), the same race she took third in before winning tonight's contest last year off the same mark under Tom Midgley; all looks set fair for another big run, and a bit of rain wouldn't be offputting.

Comment: Basically ran up to his mark when an outpaced fifth at Warwick latest, but losing run now stands at 19 and his Carlisle outing in April (close up when fell late) suggests he needs a stiffer track at these intermediate sorts of trip nowadays; no apparent ground concerns, at least.

Comment: Victories last year at 125-1 (Flat) and 33-1 (over 2m3f here, good) mitigate against dismissing him out of hand, and he'll likely have needed last month's first run since the autumn; previous precedent suggests the forecast rain wouldn't be welcome, however.

Comment: No prizes for consistency, but bumped into one when second over an inadequate 2m at Southwell earlier in the week (We Got Your Back 11l behind); soft-ground Uttoxeter winner off 5lb higher last autumn.

Comment: Six wins last summer/autumn included two novice handicaps here (2m1f-2m2f, good); remains above any mark ever defied, but equalled career-best RPR in defeat at his beloved Sedgefield latest; respected.

Comment: Gentle progression this spring culminated in April's Carlisle win (2m5f, good), and possible excuses both starts since (boiled over; 2m1f too sharp); no RPR better than 91 when there's been give in the ground.

Comment: Got off the mark over hurdles at Huntingdon (20.5f, good) in April and followed up in a four-runner contest at Ludlow (3m, good) last month with Galway Reel 13l back in second; up 7lb and holds strong claims once again.

Comment: Remains a maiden but has made the frame in nine of his last ten starts; continues without headgear except for usual tongue-tie as when running up to his best when second at Cartmel (2m6f, good) 18 days ago; place claims once again but it would be brave to include him just for win purposes.
