Selected odds by:
Yarmouth debut (7f, good to firm) in August had plenty merit to it, but not as promising over 1m at Chelmsford on AW bow eight days ago. Should be capable of better than that.
Son of Zebedee who cost 8,500 gns as a yearling, hasn't shown much in pair of 7f turf starts and potentially best watched now up in trip and switched to AW.
A 22,000 gns yearling by Farhh, he was green on debut over 1m2f at Lingfield on AW 16 days ago, before running on to good effect. Down in trip and leading contender if building on that promise for top yard in excellent form (19% strike rate lately).
€60,000 yearling by Power who was a major eye-catcher on debut when a running on 1½L second to Tansheet over C&D in September. Well held in stronger event at York since but must have claims back here.
Gelded son of Canford Cliffs and a half-brother to dual 1m winner Scala Romana, plenty improvement to find based on two AW runs over this trip at Kempton so far.
Took a marked step forward on previous form when beaten just 1¼L into second in a maiden at Redcar (7f, good to soft) on penultimate start but not as good since at York. Lacks consistency and tackles 1m for the first time on AW bow.
Camacho gelding, half-brother to middle-distance winner Kaniza, although dam won over 6f in US. Showed some promise recently on debut over 7f at this track. Must improve to hold claims.
Havana Gold filly has been little threat in three starts to date, including AW bow over 7f here a fortnight ago. Others make more appeal at this juncture.
Filly sent off big prices in pair of 1m turf novice stakes events and hasn't threatened. AW bow, remains on the watchlist at this point.
Canford Cliffs filly who cost £20,000 as a yearling. First foal out of 6f AW placed juvenile Moss Top, she was a 2L runner-up over C&D last month on debut and entitled to have her say again.
A €47,000 yearling by Epaulette out of Sweet Kristeen, she's a half-sister to four winners. Needs to find improvement on basis of two runs so far, beaten 7L over 7f on debut at this track in September and poor on soft ground at Catterick next time.
Delegator filly showed a modicum of promise on second outing over this C&D, beaten around 6L. Work in progress for now and perhaps going to be better once handicapping.

Elegiac (11/10), Broken Wings (7/2), Photonics (4/1), Cracker Factory (12/1), Windsor Cross (12/1), Bob's Girl (20/1), Sunstorm (33/1), April Rising (33/1), She's Royal (66/1), Praeceps (66/1), Military Madame (100/1), Blyton Lass (150/1), Daffy Grey (200/1)
Mark Johnston's ELEGIAC should come on for the experience of his debut third over a longer trip at Lingfield, where he was quite green before getting the hang of things late on. He drops in trip but could be promising and is taken to land this prize. Broken Wings was runner-up over C&D on debut herself last month and, with improvement likely, is perfectly entitled to a major say again. Photonics made a pleasing start here too and can bounce back from a poor run on turf since while Cracker Factory is also capable of being involved.
