'Made an excellent start to the season; only third of six last time but remains of interest'

'2 wins from last 3 runs; back up in grade but this thriving 7yo has to go on the shortlist'

'In good heart over 1m this season and today's extra yardage could be a plus; chance'

'Respectable run here last time over inadequate 7f; in calculations now back up in trip'

'Two wins this spring; below par last time but could bounce back and play a leading role'

'10yo who arrives on a hat-trick; this is tougher but he's in rude health; respected'

'Down the field in March on sole run this year, but not discounted off last winning mark'

'Returned to form to win this last year and is now 7lb lower; interesting'

'Course winner who has dropped back down to his last winning mark and is not written off'

'Won at Haydock last September and has some good form this year; has an each-way shout'

'Has a good record at Ripon, where he won last time; has run well here; could be involved'
