Twice a winner from 15 starts including off a 1lb lower mark over an extended 1m3f at Lingfield (good) 12 months ago. Held off a 1lb higher mark on the AW at Wolverhampton last month.

Record of 2/5 on turf including on last two outings for previous yard in France. Had four outings over hurdles prior to her return to the flat when fifth at Lingfield over 1m4f earlier this month and may surprise a few in this.

Broke his maiden over 1m3f at Kempton last November and beaten 6L over 1m6f at Goodwood (good-to-firm) on his seasonal debut earlier this month. Races off a mark 8lb higher than for that Kempton success today.

Winner on turf at Doncaster in spring 2016 but well held on final two starts of the last turf season and a similar story in two runs since being gelded. Latest of those came on seasonal debut at Windsor earlier this month.

Sole success in 22 starts came in a 1m4f AW maiden at Wolverhampton in April 2015. Handicap mark is falling as a result of some mediocre performances in recent efforts and needs to bounce back here.

Dead-heated when winning over 1m4f at Wolverhampton earlier this month, had previously finished in the frame twice over the same C&D and interesting to see how she fares off a 4lb higher mark today.

Maiden after 18 outings but just four of those have come on turf. Finished third in first time blinkers on her penultimate outing over hurdles at Ffos Las last month. Has disappointed since and worth a check in the market on his return to the Flat.

Winner over 1m6f at Salisbury (good) last August and best run since came when beaten 2L into fifth at Nottingham over the same trip on good ground in October. Pulled up over hurdles at Towcester and well held eighth at Goodwood in two starts in 2017.

21 race maiden though beaten only ½L on his second outing for this stable at Chelmsford over an extended 1m5f last time out. Had previously finished fourth at Kempton over this trip though and interesting if repeating that most recent effort.

Lightly raced on turf on the Flat having had just five starts. Has been well beaten over hurdles of late and races off a mark 6lb lower than when successful on soft ground on his Flat debut for this yard over 1m4f at Chepstow nearly three years ago.

Finished runner-up on his return to the Flat after a couple of runs over hurdles at Kempton last time out. Has been raised 1lb for that mark and interesting here if repeating that effort on his return to turf today.

Managed a couple of placed efforts on the AW so far this year but well held on his return to turf at Musselburgh over 1m6f earlier this month. Forecast ground should suit here as should the drop in trip with cheekpieces reapplied (well beaten on only start in them so far).

RECKLESS WAVE dead-heated at Wolverhampton earlier this month and is less exposed than most of her rivals in this. The selection has scored twice on the AW but has run well on turf in the past and can take this at the chief expense of Kempton winner Art Of Swing who ran well on his seasonal debut at Goodwood earlier this month while Hallingham can register another placing by claiming third here.
