The mare HOSTELRY (nap) returned to form with a win at Nottingham recently and a 4lb rise may not prevent a follow-up success here. Ballsbridge is of interest back in blinkers on his second start back from a break and he is second choice ahead of Light Up Our Stars.[Ben Hutton]

Eight-race maiden who failed to shine last year on final three runs for Michael Bell and was sold for 11,000gns in November; however, he's dropped down the weights and his new trainer is enjoying a productive month.
Made it 0-12 when tailed off in reapplied cheekpieces on recent reappearance; however, if he's following the same pattern as last year there could be a big run forthcoming with the blinkers back on this afternoon.
Runner-up at Yarmouth last July and now fully 21lb lower but he struggled on his final few runs for Andrew Balding and it's been the same story since joining this yard.
Exploited a reduced mark at Nottingham (1m, good) 12 days ago on her second run back from a break; back up 4lb she remains well treated on last season's best efforts and is firmly in calculations.
Just one win from his 17 starts but he's on a reduced mark and ran well when fourth of 17 at Redcar (7f, good) on his recent reappearance; there can be hope he'll be fine at this new trip and he's not ruled out.
Lightly raced 4yo who is 6lb lower than when third at Redcar (1m6f, good to firm) last August; however, he's finished down the field on his three runs since (1m4f-2m) and is now 0-9; drops in trip; something to prove.
9yo who has been beaten 15 times since his last win last July but runner-up on two of his last four starts, most recently off this mark at Brighton (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago; could be thereabouts once more.
Two AW wins last September and some fair efforts in defeat on AW in the winter; however, she now returns from a break and is 0-11 on turf; others are more compelling.
Won a 1m handicap at Leicester in June 2023 but finished no better than sixth across her five outings last year and she needs to improve for last month's reappearance seventh at Wolverhampton.
