'Runs off last winning mark but return to form needed on second start of the season'

'Ex-Ballydoyle 4yo who may be able to build on his stable debut run; on the shortlist'

'1m Listed second here last July, but this trip may stretch him and he's on long losing run'

'Reduced mark appeals on last spring's form but he's failed to shine since'

'Below best on last two Flat starts but the return to Pontefract could suit this C&D winner'

'Useful hurdler who enjoyed productive first Flat campaign last season; could be in the mix'

'Struggled on final two runs last season but returns from a break with stable in fine form'

'Back from absence but that was also the case when winning at York on sole stable start'

'His mark continues to fall & he didn't run badly last time, but others are more compelling'
