Plenty are in with chances and preference is for five-time winner IDEAL GUEST who looks ready to strike for his current yard. Mrs Trump (second choice) won three times last year and looks like she is running back into form. The hood has brought about improvement in Raft Up and he cannot be discounted. Another one to consider is Arc Shadowfax who could take advantage of a career-low mark. [Andrew Bladen]

Sole success came at Pontefract (6f, good) last June when trained by George Boughey; yet to be placed since switching to current yard and is on a career-low mark; hard to recommend.
Got off the mark at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) in December but unplaced in four starts since; left Richard Fahey for 4,400gns in April and makes stable debut; best watched.
Won five times for George Margarson; showed first form for current yard when second of 11 at Leicester (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago in first-time hood (retained) replacing cheekpieces; should build on that and go close.
The first-time blinkers (retained) did the trick when he got off the mark, on his 18th attempt, at Brighton (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago; up 4lb and not an obvious candidate to follow up.
Redcar maiden winner (6f, good) as a 2yo and has been running with credit lately, as when third of nine at Newcastle (6f, AW) on his return to this stable in March and when sixth of 13 at Southwell (7f, AW) last month; on a career-low mark and not out of this.
Has plunged in the weights but failed to take advantage of favourable terms when fifth of 11 at Windsor (5f, good to firm; 9-4) 12 days ago; first-time visor is now on and well handicapped on his best form.
Revived by the application of a hood to land back-to-back wins at AW Newcastle in February/March; beaten a neck in search of first turf success over C&D last month but lesser effort over C&D two weeks ago; may bounce back.
Three wins last year, one of them at this venue; third of nine at Redcar (6f, good to firm) last month, suggesting she is coming to hand; holds good claims.
Both wins came at Southwell AW for David Loughnane; best form for current yard when fourth to Silky Robin (7lb better off for less than 3l) at Brighton (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago; may have more to give.
Three wins on turf but yet to fire for current yard; on a career-low mark and first-time blinkers are now equipped alongside the hood; not yet one to give up on for respected stable.
