- Yurinov
- Brandon Wilkie / P A Kirby

|
10/1 |
Yurinov
Didn't go on for David O'Meara before being sold for 3,500gns; not much expected ahead of his AW debut (C&D) for new connections recently but shaped well at a big price and that gave something to build on.

- Gold Aura
- Hector Crouch / Jack Jones

|
11/4 |
Gold Aura
Regressive maiden who's been very expensive to follow this year, with nine defeats at 9-2 or shorter; has plenty of near-misses to her name and ran better last time but there can't be many left who retain the faith.

- Night Bear
- Jack Doughty / A W Carroll

Night Bear
On the downgrade this year and hung right when behind Yurinov over C&D last time (made most back from a break; has gone well fresh before); needs to improve on that.

- Pysanka
- L Morris / D M Loughnane

Pysanka
Four-time Wolverhampton winner who rarely runs elsewhere; again found 1m6f stretching him last time but he remains 3lb above his highest successful mark and looks vulnerable once more.

- Mr Zippi
- Joanna Mason / Sara Ender

Mr Zippi
Dual bumper winner (including on debut) who's been off since running below market expectations on his handicap debut in the spring; would want to see some support after seven months on the sidelines.

Delta Legend
With his third trainer in the space of a few months; his summer win came fresh, so perhaps the six-week break, change of scenery and first-time headgear will do the trick.

- Incan Empire
- George Wood / Harry Eustace

17/2 |
Incan Empire
Big prices and well held in three runs (1m-1m2f), latterly back from a layoff early in the month having been gelded; the market will show what connections make of his opening mark.

- Inlet
- Connor Planas / Rae Guest

|
28/1 |
Inlet
Slowly away and achieved little in three runs, including over C&D; hard to see what she's done to justify her opening mark and is likely best watched unless there's good money around.

- Apache Canyon
- Darragh Keenan / M Wigham

18/1 |
Apache Canyon
Two poor efforts since his 1m3f win here off 4lb lower, again hanging left last time; has been found a weak enough handicap but has something to prove now.
|

- Alvesta
- C Lee / M Crawley
|

|
12/1 |
Alvesta
Regressive maiden for Andrew Balding who was picked up for 14,000gns in October; 50-1 for her stable debut early in the month, when well held, and needs to improve for this stiffest test to date.

- Last Empress
- David Probert / D Menuisier

Last Empress
Well related but didn't achieve much in four runs for Roger Varian; shaped fairly for her new yard, upped from 1m to 1m3f, behind Blue Collar back from a break last time and that was more like it.

Blue Collar
Better on his AW debut early in the month, going 1m3f for the first time, despite again hanging right; had plenty of chances on turf, however, and now has to prove his stamina upped another furlong on to Tapeta.
