'Unfancied and has been beaten by 5l and more in both career starts.'

'Beaten by a neck after a slow start when odds-on for C&D debut; 2lb higher here.'

'Unlikely to make a winning debut here after defeats in seven local trial races.'

'Favourite and ran well to finish 3l second on C&D debut last month; should go well again.'

'Led close home when scoring by 0.5l on C&D debut five weeks ago; 7lb higher here.'

'Showed some ability around the turn of the year but has regressed since then.'

'Only win from 15 tries came over C&D off 5lb lower; place prospects at best.'

'Has lost his form badly since three good runs at the end of last year.'

'Won by 0.75l as a 13-1 outsider on C&D debut; has wide draw and 7lb rise to overcome.'

'Debutant who has impressed in two trial victories; could go close.'

'Hard to fancy after struggling in ten trial races spread over a ten-month period.'

'Newcomer who has raced in eight trials, winning two; cannot be completely discounted.'

'Solid fifth on 5f debut five weeks ago; should progress and like this longer trip.'

'C&D winner off 7lb lower; back from a break with Purton aboard and new headgear applied.'
