'Looked to have no excuses last time; hard to make a case for soft ground being optimal'

'Needs to bounce back; little wiggle room off this mark (5lb higher than when last winning)'

'Has resumed in good form and there's no obvious reason he won't go well again'

'Not as good now; ran poorly last time and is some way down the pecking order'

'Never run on soft ground; remains just above his highest winning mark, so bit to overcome'

'Disappointing latest when the return to soft ground wouldn't have hurt; has to bounce back'

'Often pulls hard and has become wildly inconsistent; hard to know what to expect'

'Achieved little to date, including on his comeback a fortnight ago; is hard to recommend'

'Retains some potential down from 7f; the market will show what's made of his opening mark'

'Plenty to like about her recent comeback and she's entitled to have come on for that'

'Return to slow conditions should help; yard been among the winners and she's shortlisted'
