Quite a few of these could make an impact if putting their best foot foward, though in some cases it's a big 'if'. Odd Socks Havana is interesting back in a 0-55, while Boujee Gold has been going well lately but will need a solid pace at the trip. However, the vote goes to BALQAA whose record here reads 2313 and who is back off her last winning mark.[David Bellingham]

Best known for his Newcastle exploits (four wins), but has run well over C&D; ran with credit when fourth of nine over 7f at Newcastle last time as a slowly-run race wouldn't have been ideal; respected back in a 0-55.
Record here reads 2313 and is off the same mark as when successful at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in September; has continued to run well since then and one to be interested in down in grade.
Just 2-31 but had dropped in the weights and undergone wind surgery before finishing a creditable third of ten at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in December; each-way claims if backing it up.
First and second at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in her last two starts; not sure this is enough of a test for her now, but a truly-run race could bring her into it.
0-13 but in the frame on seven occasions and not beaten far when fifth of 12 at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) last month; return to this trip may suit and she could play a part.
0-16 since his successful racecourse debut for Richard Hughes in the summer of 2022; not shown a great deal lately, but he continues to plummet down the weights and the return to this trip should suit; could go well at a price.
Not very solid and losing run up to 24, but is 2lb lower than when twice runner-up here (7f/1m) late last year; not a great surprise were he to run well.
Rarely wins these days, but 6lb lower than when successful at Doncaster (1m, good) last summer; shaped as though the return to this trip would suit when third of nine in a 0-50 classified event here (7f) eight days ago.
Two of his three wins have come over C&D, the latest from 2lb higher last April; hasn't proved very consistent in the meantime, though, and others make greater appeal.
