Selected odds by:
Moderate form in three starts over 5f-7f so far. Step up in trip could suit, but has that to prove, and enters handicaps on a stiff mark.
Improved on her second start in a Chelmsford maiden (1m, AW) last December, and was a bit too keen when back from a break at Newcastle earlier this month. Initial mark stiff enough, but it wouldn't surprise to see more from her now handicapping.
Has been held on all four starts, but a couple of those have offered some minor promise, including when last seen at Lingfield (1m, AW) in February. Drops 1lb and looks to be on a more realistic mark than some. Not ruled out.
Didn't reveal too much in the way of ability as a juvenile, but stepped up on that on her reappearance, when 1¼L second over C&D (good) earlier in the month. Up 2lb for that, but she'll be a contender if she can repeat it.
Wasn't able to show much in three starts in novice/ maiden company, including on her recent return from a break, at Wolverhampton. Step up in trip ought to suit for this handicap debut, but looks on a stiff mark. Cheekpieces go on.
Showed glimpses of promise in four starts over 7f-1m last year. Dropped 3lb going into his reappearance over C&D when 3L behind Fast Track Flyer. Further 2lb drop should help and with 7lb claimed he could come into this.
Was well held in all three juvenile starts. Has been showing slightly more in two of her three recent handicap runs, but was well held at Bath last time when upped to 1m, so arrives with a fair bit to prove.
Sole win came in a seller here (7f, good to firm) last September, when with Jamie Osborne. Has not been back at that level since, but returned from a break/gelding operation to show up well at Kempton last time. Not ruled out if able to repeat that.
Yet to show much and her initial handicap mark looked harsh, so there's been no real surprise that she has failed to make an impact in her last two starts. Sprint bred, so this step up in trip isn't certain to suit. Plenty to prove.
Back in better form last time, when beaten just 2L into sixth in a Chelmsford handicap (7f, AW), after a lengthy break. Clearly needs to find some more from the same mark, but not written off.
Got off the mark on his handicap debut at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in December, when 3lb lower. Has been found out by the assessor in two subsequent starts. Step up to 1m looks positive, and he should at least be competitive.
Making gradual improvement after a moderate start, and the application of cheekpieces and step up to 1m2f appeared to help when she was 2L second on her handicap debut recently. Now 2lb higher, but entitled to consideration.

FAST TRACK FLYER made improvement last time out and is taken to go one better now she has shown more of what she is about. Blairlogie could narrow the gap behind her this time and may prove a threat, while similar comments apply to both Twittering and Pure Perfection. Others who could make an impact this time are Surrajah; Rare Glam; Criseyde and Rosa Gold.
