Convo
He's unproven on the forecast fast ground and last season concluded with two below-par runs; however, she was a Listed runner-up in France last June and is not ruled out in first-time cheekpieces on her handicap/seasonal debut.

Fuji Mountain
Won on nursery debut at Chester (5f, soft) last September and good third at York (5f, soft) next time; likely to be on different ground for this reappearance but can be in the mix if resuming where he left off.

Balzarini
Won a maiden at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last July for Stuart Williams and handed tough tasks in 7f Group 3s on final two 2yo runs; sold for 40,000gns last October; the drop back in trip could be a plus on his stable and seasonal debut and he's one to watch in the betting.

Against The Wind
Showed good pace when close fifth of 20 in sales race at York (6f, good to firm) last August and didn't run badly in 5f Listed race at Ayr next time; returns having been gelded and he could go well on handicap debut.

Desert Champion
Easily made all in a first-time visor on handicap debut at Chelmsford (5f, AW) last month; failed to back that up when 10lb higher at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) last time but he now goes in blinkers and it will be no surprise if he bounces back with a bold show on his first turf start.

Naana's Sparkle
Built upon previous turf promise to win Chelmsford novice (6f, AW) last October and again ran well when fourth in Wolverhampton novice (6f, AW) in November; he's shaped as though he could be suited by the drop to 5f and is one to consider on his handicap and seasonal debut.

Do It Now
Below par on final four runs last August-October but a break may have helped and he reappears with his yard going well; creditable fifth in the Super Sprint last July and he's of interest on that form; chance.

Educating Rita
Progressive last year across her first five starts, going close in a nursery at Beverley (5f, good to firm) in August; respectable Listed efforts the next twice; could be involved back in a handicap on reappearance.

Did well after moving into nurseries in second half of last year, winning twice (5f, good); a contender if fully tuned up on reappearance.

Runner-up on first four starts (AW/slow turf; including handicap debut) before lesser run in Southwell novice in December when last seen; returns on a competitive mark and with his yard among the winners; not discounted.

Neytiri Te Tskaha
Won C&D novice (good to firm) last August for Stuart Williams; fair efforts at Wolverhampton (5f/6f, AW) this year on first two stable and handicap starts; she needs something extra today but the drop back in trip could be a plus (pulled hard last time) and she's not ruled out.
