Private Island
Well-bred filly who led close home to win by a nose on handicap debut at Lingfield (7f, AW) eight days ago; could easily have a lot more to offer over today's longer trip and needs to be taken very seriously.

Clever Jack
Weakened into fifth when tried in first-time cheekpieces (now removed) at Wolverhampton in November, but had gone very close on nursery debut at Newcastle (also 7f, AW) a few days earlier and is open to improvement over 1m this year.

Pay Attention
Showed some promise for Tom Ward last year, but disappointed when upped to 1m for AW nursery in October and has a point to prove on seasonal/stable debut.

Calibos
Sold out of Richard Fahay stable for 18,000gns soon after disappointing nursery debut in October (7f, AW), but remains unexposed and it will be interesting to see what the Kublers can do with him; gelded in November.

Blue Train
From a good family but showed only glimmers of promise in 7f maiden/novice races last year and needs to have made good progress over the winter.

Appleblossomwhite
Improving filly who scored in good style at Kempton in February, her second handicap, and lost only only by a head at Southwell (also 1m, AW) last month; major player if suited by today's switch to turf.

Frostmagic
Unexposed after only three runs but made low-key seasonal debut in 7f Wolverhampton novice last month and will need to take a big step forward to overcome his opening handicap mark.

Squires Treaty
Runner-up in consecutive 1m AW handicaps in January but has been below that form lately and is now 0-8; cheekpieces removed after one use; makes turf debut today.

Kitty's Dream
Raced a bit too freely and finished only ninth of 12 (albeit not beaten far) on last month's handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7f, AW); upped in trip and fitted with cheekpieces here.

Herkeios
Placed for James Ferguson in January and on two of first three starts for new stable, more recently when close second at Newcastle (1m, AW) a week ago; nudged up 1lb for this turf debut but can make his presence felt again.

Well beaten when 66-1 for recent seasonal/handicap debut at Lingfield (1m, AW); needs to have taken considerable benefit from that outing.

Miakoda
Kept on well for clearcut success at Newcastle (7f, AW) a fortnight ago, his 13th start; in good heart and well worth another crack at 1m but takes on a host of unexposed rivals here.

Latona
Made underhwelming nursery debut in first-time blinkers at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in December but his fourth in cheekpieces there (8.6f) in February was much better and further progress is possible.
