'Improved steadily last season but will need another career best to return to winning ways'

'Quirky but well handicapped; shaped as if coming to hand here last time; considered'

'Tough 5f performer; current mark probably demands a personal best but he must be respected'

'Some encouragement on stable debut; off two months since; worth monitoring in the market'

'Drying ground will suit; slipping in the weights and looks the pick of Paul Midgley's pair'

'Closely matched with Korker on last week's C&D third; may build on that; major player'

'Went off the boil as 5yo but more promise on return; can play leading role if back on song'

'Sixth of 13 over C&D last Thursday; could make frame but others appeal more for the win'

'Thriving, last three wins in less than a month; must prove himself on this quicker ground'

'Won this in 2017 but isn't quite the force of old and was only ninth over C&D last time'

'Had several of these behind him when second of 13 over C&D nine days ago; big chance'

'Arrives in form but conditions may place the emphasis too much on speed'

'Tailed off on reappearance and probably faces a stern assignment against his elders'

'Encouraging fifth at Musselburgh; goes well for Amie Waugh; could go close at a price'
