| 2nd | 1 | 2 |
Athenian Spirit (G)
[P]
Resumed from 9 weeks off with an excellent second of 9 in handicap here (7f) 7 days ago, collared only late on having raced wide. Big shout off an unchanged mark.

Hardstyle (G)
FAV
Lightly-raced maiden. 7/4, very good fourth of 8 in nursery at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 15 days ago. Should improve further so he's well in the mix.

P Cosgrave | G Boughey | 3 | 61.2 kg |

| 4th | 3 | 6 |
Flying Macs (F)
Still a maiden and only fifth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 33/1) 12 days ago. Has work to do despite a falling mark.
|
Hollie Doyle | M D I Usher | 3 | 60.8 kg |

11/2
|
| 7th | 4 | 7 |
Akrivos (G)
Lightly-raced maiden. 4/1, last of 9 in nursery at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 30 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Paddy Bradley | Ian Williams | 3 | 60.3 kg |

Shes Got The Blues (F)
Respectable fifth of 9 in nursery (25/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 30 days ago, doing too much too soon. Makes polytrack debut. Can give a good account.
|
Myla Coppins | A W Carroll | 3 | 58.5 kg |

| 3rd | 6 | 3 |
Lapidarist (F)
Comes here below par, just sixth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Chelmsford City (8f) 12 days ago, slowly away. Needs a big step forward if she's to get off the mark here.

Jack Dace | D M Simcock | 3 | 57.6 kg |

Chinchin (F)
[H]
Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, good fourth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 12 days ago. One to consider despite being 1 lb "wrong" in the weights.

S M Levey | S C Williams | 3 | 57.2 kg |

Out In The Cold (F)
Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in nursery at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 33/1) 30 days ago. Hard to make a case for.
