'2-2 over sprint trips, both last month, and this bang-in-form 4yo has to be respected'

'Won at Southwell two starts ago; lesser run there last time but was trapped wide'

'3yo; running well in defeat in 6f Tapeta handicaps and every chance he'll be thereabouts'

'Poor strike-rate but has run some bright races this term (including here); each-way claims'

'C&D winner who has posted promising performances the last twice and could be in the mix'

'Gelded since last run in July and a case can be made on this year's best efforts'

'Half-brother to two winners for the yard but hard to fancy on what he's shown so far'

'Not at top of his game on last few starts but this 7-time course winner is on a handy mark'

'Close third over C&D in March when fully 16lb higher; however, he's struggled since'

'Won at Southwell last month and may not have been suited by the return to turf last time'

'Patchy turf form this summer but return to this course for stable debut could be a plus'

'Makes stable debut after time off; not a forlorn hope judged on penultimate effort'
