Faylaq
Two wins from final four starts last season (good/good to soft, including at 1m2f) and has won both starts this month (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm); this 9yo is in a hotter race today but there's still mileage in his mark on his old form and he has to be respected.

Penzance
May not have been suited by tight Chester last time and he was in pretty good heart previously, winning at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in March and keeping on for fifth of 13 over 1m at Thirsk (good) two starts ago; however, he's now 0-8 on turf and this is a tough race.

Sir Lowry's Pass
Runner-up on handicap debut at Newbury (1m2f, heavy) last October and reappeared with a well-backed win at Goodwood (1m2f, good) this month, finding plenty for pressure and prevailing by 2l; this unexposed 4yo could have more left in the tank and may well take a 7lb rise in his stride.

Cracking Gold
Three-time AW winner at up to 1m who ran best race yet on turf when fourth of 14 at Chester (7.5f, good) this month; he's a half-brother to a 1m1f winner and it's possible this new trip will be within range, but he needs to prove that today.

Approval
Won at Glorious Goodwood (1m2f, good to firm) last August on second handicap start; well beaten on sole run since at Newmarket (1m1f, good) this month and has something to prove after that, but he may have needed the run and this lightly raced 4yo retains potential for his top yard.

See That Storm
Reappeared over C&D this month having been gelded, and in winning he made it 4-4 in handicaps and for this yard (the other wins were also over 1m2f on good to firm; two here); remains to be seen where the ceiling of his ability lies and a modest 3lb rise for last time could underestimate him.

Romieu
Prominent-racer who won the first of his two starts in France (1m, heavy) and comfortably made all on his British and stable debut in a novice here (1m, good to firm) last month; close fifth of 14 on handicap debut at York (1m, good to firm) 11 days ago; his dam was classy and stayed well, and he's open to improvement now up in trip; interesting.

Born Ruler
Progressive during truncated campaign last year and won in fine style at Ayr (1m2f, good) last July; returned from absence with fair fifth at Newmarket (1m1f, good) this month and could show the benefit of that run today.

Liberty Coach
Improved for these cheekpieces last August-November, winning three times (1m2f, good to firm/soft; including C&D), and he returned with a solid fifth of 14 at Chester this month; could resume his progressive ways on the back of that reappearance outing; possible player.

Reappeared with close third of 16 at Doncaster (1m2f, good) in March and now 3lb lower; however, hasn't come up to scratch on his three starts since and needs something extra today.

Lord Protector
Runner-up in this last year and now 7lb lower; kicked off this campaign with two creditable runs but soundly beaten by See That Storm over C&D last time and this 7yo's losing sequence is now up to 14 races.
