- R Havlin / T Faulkner

|
7/4 |
Diddy Man
Dual winner last April (Tapeta/soft turf) who's down to a career-low mark on return from a short break (Newcastle victory came when fresh); lacks consistency and another furlong would have been optimal round here but he's considered at this level.

6/1 |
Drafted
Newcastle win last November came over 7f off the same mark in cheekpieces, which are back on tonight; his latest effort over 6f here is best ignored and he's one of the likelier winners.

- Pessoa
- Finley Marsh / A Wintle

3/1 |
Pessoa
Added to an impressive record over C&D when winning last month off 6lb lower; is more consistent than most at this level and seems set to get involved once again.

- Non Runner / G Brown

Penny's Spirit
Half-sister to two course winners and offered more on her C&D handicap debut three weeks ago, off the same mark for Millie Wonnacott; did finish some way off the front pair but that gave something to build on.

- Bungle Bay
- Joe Leavy / H J Evans

|
4/1 |
Bungle Bay
Made it 7-18 round here and 6-19 for Joe Leavy when winning over C&D off 2lb lower last month; there's little margin for error off this mark and he didn't look to have any excuses when behind Penny's Spirit last time.

20/1 |
Alabama Belle
Has pulled hard, hence the hood, and carried her head high when showing more in a busy finish over 6f on her handicap debut here three months ago; will need to settle better back up in trip.

Diamondsinthesand
Pulled hard without the usual hood (back on tonight) behind Bungle Bay over C&D when last seen four months ago; is hard to win with and there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh, which leaves Pessoa looking his yard's best chance.

- Too Much Trevor
- Marco Ghiani / G Harris

33/1 |
Too Much Trevor
Regressive maiden for Alice Haynes, almost exclusively on turf and in various forms of headgear; pulled hard when well beaten for his new yard (also saddles Dynamite Katie) on comeback this month.

- Barney's Bay
- L Morris / D Shaw

16/1 |
Barney's Bay
Sharp regression last season, having missed ten months; has finished placed at big prices a couple of times this year, including behind Pessoa over C&D, but he'll do well to bolster his poor strike-rate.

- Dynamite Katie
- Jonny Peate / G Harris

Dynamite Katie
Regressive mare who again goes without the usual hood back from six months off; would be a surprise winner.
