One Night Thunder
Lightly raced 5yo but he's not solid on his form for current yard and badly lacks recent match practice, having been absent since finishing midfield in the Lincoln last March; been gelded since and has something to prove on his comeback.

Leadman
Had form figures of 2221442 (the win achieved when the first past the post was disqualified on a technicality) for Andrew Balding and was been beaten less than 2l in his final three runs in the autumn; changed hands for 28,000gns in October; interesting contender back in a handicap.

Daring Legend
Course winner, who won two in a row over 7f on turf last summer; looks interesting on that form but he's not been at full power this year and he was beaten 11l at Doncaster (7f, good) last time; cheekpieces are now added and he needs a major revival.

3/1 |
Benacre
On long losing run and was well held when favourite at Musselburgh two weeks ago but he rallied well to go close there (7f, good) on his penultimate run; has possibilities if he can recapture that form and he's still lightly raced on AW.

3/1 |
Project Geofin
Didn't fire here in his final two runs last year but both wins have come at Newcastle and latest was over C&D in October; still looks feasibly treated on that form and he ran well on his seasonal return last spring; one to keep an eye on.

8/1 |
Tasever
All four wins have been at this track including two over C&D in January; flopped at Southwell last month but he now returns to his favoured course and he had a near-miss here (1m) on his penultimate run; big player if he can bounce back near best.

Bobby Joe Leg
11yo who recorded his 16th win when completing a C&D double in March; that form puts him in the picture but he's been quiet since including on Tapeta and turf; bit to prove again and needs to rediscover his spark.

- Too Much
- Harry Burns / D Thompson

Too Much
Came from off the pace when scoring in good style over C&D in March; held in two runs here since but latest was a creditable effort from a long way out the weights in a valuable handicap; back on correct mark here and she's in the mix on this big drop back in grade.
