Makes his handicap debut on just his fourth start for this trainer having raced previously in bumpers for Tina Jackson. Drops in trip from his latest start at Newcastle (1m).

In sensational early season form having won twice over the course of the past ten days (6f Thirsk, 7f Catterick), and actually arrives seeking a four-timer. Officially well in today and will be racing outside of Class 6 company soon.

Veteran who is falling sharply in the weights. His last success came around this time in 2017 on the AW at Wolverhampton (6f), but all of his best form on turf has come on quicker ground.

Now a nine race maiden, but at least she has plenty of experience of this track having raced here on five previous occasions. Should appreciate the drop back to 7f from 1m.

AW regular who last raced on turf in July 2016. However, he has improved since then, and this is most definitely his trip. Off since finishing a neck second to Lukoutoldmakezebak at Newcastle in mid-February.

A six-time AW winner who has kept decent form this winter; twice winning over 1m on the Fibresand at Southwell. However, is 0 from 27 on turf and that's off-putting.

Below form on his last three AW starts, but plausible he'll appreciate the switch back to turf (4-36). Wide draw to contend with, and that's always a negative at Thirsk.

Reliable as such, but doesn't find winning all that easy. Has side-stepped a winter AW campaign this year, so perhaps that could reap dividends. Sharper for his recent return to action at Southwell.

With various trainers in Ireland previously, and whilst still a maiden has finished runner up on turf and synthetics (both 6f). Lowly weighted for UK/stable debut from a handy inside berth.

Tailed off on her handicap debut on Fibresand at Southwell (1m) in January. Worth dismissing that effort entirely on account of the surface, but still needs to improve significantly on her earlier turf starts (5f-6f).

Stayed on strongly when getting off the mark over 7f at Southwell in early March (33/1), but appeared to revert to type back there next time. Unexposed as such on turf, and does have previous Thirsk experience.

Played second fiddle to Poppy May at Southwell (7f) in early March, and has only ran to a similar level of form since in three subsequent starts. Now a 24-race maiden (0-5 turf), but was beaten by just a neck on his sole Thirsk start (6f).

Not offered anything to work with so far (0 from 5), and appears devoid of ability. However, more positively is well drawn, with the first time tongue-tie applied.

His best effort so far came over 1m2f at Redcar in May 2017, but that is increasingly looking like an 'out-lier' on his overall CV. Sure to have needed the outing at Newcastle last month.

14:20 Thirsk - 30 April 2018 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

It's impossible to ignore the all too obvious but equally alluring claims of the well drawn four-timer seeking REDROSEZORRO. Essentially he's ahead of the handicapper under penalties, and now much better than this Class 6 grade. Although he has a tendency to take a keen hold, this isn't a problem at a sharp track like Thirsk, and he's versatile between 6f and 7f. Justice Pleasing switches back to turf for the first time in ages, so we'll see how he fares with the future in mind, whilst Cool Strutter is another to note having side-stepped a winter AW campaign.
