Followed up a victory over 5f here with a head defeat over teh same C&D a week ago. Races off the same mark here and is of interest stepping up in distance.
Good second over this C&D in January but disappointed when well held dropping to 5f at Newcastle a month later. One for the shortlist back up in trip having won over this C&D in the past.
Off the mark at the ninth time of asking when victorious by a head in a 7f handicap at Kempton last month. Races off a 3lb higher mark here and is an interesting contender dropping in trip.
Followed up a 7f victory at Newcastle in January with a 4L fourth at Lingfield last time out. Races off a mark 3lb higher than for that Newcastle victory dropping back in trip in this event.
Decent third in a handicap over this trip at Lingfield on debut for this yard in January. Hood tried for the first time having disappointed upped to 7f at Kempton just under a month ago.
Beaten a neck when third over 7f here in Wolverhampton but has failed to figure in two starts over this trip since joining this stable. Others look more reliable propositions at present.
C&D winner has finished held in two starts since returning from a break most recently when 5¼L fourth in a six runner 6f handicap at Southwell last month. Well handicapped on old form and market support would be notable.
Successful in a classified event over C&D in December but has finished held in four subsequent starts in handicap company including over this trip at Southwell last month. More needed if she's to take this race.

Johnny Reb (11/4), Tabaahy (7/2), Madrinho (9/2), Big Lachie (11/2), Bugler Bob (7/1), Slowmo (10/1), Desert Land (12/1), Calin's Lad (16/1), Isabella Ruby (50/1)
BIG LACHIE should appreciate the return to this distance and he looks capable of registering a victory in this sprint handicap. The selection ran well over this C&D on his penultimate start and he can get the better of Tabaahy who has been running well over shorter in recent starts. Third place can go to Bugler Bob who is dropping in trip and was the winner of his penultimate start.
