Spotlight: His two wins have been on soft/heavy and latest was off 1lb higher at Thirsk (7f) last April; finished close up over C&D (good to firm) last month and he's continued the good work with placed efforts in last two runs; looks interesting on this drop back in grade and any rain would be a positive.

Spotlight: Ex-Irish filly who made it second-time lucky for new yard when forging clear in 16-runner handicap at Leicester (7f, good to soft; blinkers removed) in May; up 6lb but she was as good as ever last time and seems fairly versatile ground-wise; key player.

Spotlight: Won at Redcar (6f) and Ripon (1m) last summer and he's finished placed under prominent tactics at those tracks in last two starts; this drop back in trip is no problem and he's respected for in-form yard; both wins have been on good to firm but he has some form on soft.

Spotlight: Looked on the up when scoring at Redcar (7f, good to firm) in May but she's not gone on from that in two runs since; ran respectably when fifth of 13 over C&D last time but she needs to find more to defy this mark.

Spotlight: 9yo who recorded his tenth win when making all at Ripon (6f, good) last month; up 5lb and all of his wins have been at sprint trips but he's finished placed in three of his six runs over 7f; could make another bold and he's versatile ground-wise; cheekpieces worn last time are removed.

Spotlight: Game win from the front at York (7f, good to firm) for Craig Lidster last summer; now 1lb lower than for that success and he may have needed the run over 1m on recent stable debut at Windsor (first run after wind surgery); tongue-tie is now added and he needs watching in the market back in trip.

Spotlight: Prolific winner who usually gets going from mid-July onwards; has form figures of 6597507 this season but he's now back on last winning mark and it wouldn't be a surprise if he turned a corner sometime soon; one to keep an eye on dropped back in trip and grade.

Spotlight: Sole win in 7f turf novice (soft) in 2023; has made heavy weather of it since leaving Andrew Balding, including for this yard since February; has plenty to prove and he needs to break much than he did on AW last time; tongue-tie removed

Spotlight: Turned things around after a break when scoring at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) in May but she failed to back that up over C&D (good to firm) two weeks ago; still looks on a workable mark but she's hard to predict and needs to bounce back again.

Spotlight: Acts on good to firm and soft ground; recorded his fourth turf win when scoring over C&D (off 3lb lower) in April but he has a patchy profile and was 11th of 12 back over C&D last time; others are more solid.

Spotlight: Four-time winner over this trip, including three on turf (good/good to firm); has defied higher marks in the past but he was tailed off on his return to turf at Redcar in April and has something to prove after another break.
