The Cola Brasil made the frame on both AW starts for Michael Bell in March and looks interesting off his lower turf mark here but a more speculative option to consider is veteran mare DIAMOND COTTAGE, who probably needed her recent reappearance outing and looks attractively weighted on some of last year's form. Waistcoat also features prominently in calculations.[Chris Wilson]

Veteran who scored over 6f on Tapeta in February and has largely remained in good form on AW since; competes off his higher turf mark here but was a fast-ground course winner (albeit over 5f) off just 1lb lower last summer; each-way claims at least.
Unplaced all six starts; returned from break with quite encouraging run in first-time cheekpieces at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March but finished last after racing too freely over that C&D last month; now drops back to 6f for first time since last summer's debut and is tried in a visor.
Racing mainly over 6f since emphatic C&D win on soft ground just over a year ago and absent since struggling over 1m on heavy ground in October; resumes on a good mark but would make much more appeal on a slower surface (particularly over this trip); blinkers the headgear of choice today.
Not an instant success for Dylan Cunha this year but evidently well suited by drop to a stiff 6f when scoring at Leicester (good) last week; not yet tested on ground quicker than good but remains unexposed as a sprinter.
Returned from spell in Ireland with two good AW runs under Kenny Roussety for new stable in March, the latter a second over 6f; looks well treated off his 7lb lower turf mark here; major player.
Useful sprinter in his prime but has regressed significantly and was unplaced all five starts last season; should be fine on the forecast fast ground here but others have more pressing claims.
Now 9lb lower than when placed over C&D (good to firm) last summer but has lacked fizz on the AW this year and switches back to turf with quite a bit to prove.
On the downgrade now and made a low-key seasonal reappearance on Tapeta last month but is very well handicapped on some of last year's fast-turf form; contender if that recent outing brought her on.
37-race maiden who finished last off today's basement mark on latest appearance in September; hopes are pinned on subsequent wind operation making a big difference.
Nine-race maiden; twice made the frame off today's lowly mark at Bath last season (5.7f/5f) but makes only limited appeal on this first start since October.
