'Won in good style at Ayr in April and has remained in good form since; respected'

'Runner-up twice last month (once over C&D); ought to be in the thick of things again'

'Back on a workable mark but has a point to prove after two down-the-field runs at York'

'Slightly disappointing at Thirsk last month but won on AW in May and this C&D also suits'

'Made all over C&D two starts ago; 5lb higher in a higher-grade race today; more needed'

'No threat at Thirsk last time but had previously run well from the front at Doncaster'

'As good as ever as a 6yo but might be a shade vulnerable off current mark in this grade'

'Shock C&D winner in first-time visor last month; 4lb rise not excessive'

'Well beaten over C&D when back on turf in April; others have much less to prove'
