Kirkdale (G)
[V]
9/4, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6f) 7 days ago. Visor back on. Likely to remain very competitive after a 5 lb rise.

Thankuappreciate (G)
C&D winner in February. Creditable efforts over 7f both starts since, latterly here. Should be at least as effective back at 6f. One the shortlist.

Farandaway (G)
FAV
Consistent in handicaps this year but stepped up even on those efforts when finally off the mark in 6f Newcastle maiden 23 days ago. The handicapper might have taken a chance leaving his mark unchanged.

Early Release (G)
C&D winner. Latest win at Kempton (6f) in March. Last of 6 over 5f here since but may fare better back at 6f.

Jesse Luc (G)
[PT]
Three-time C&D winner. Respectable fifth of 11 over C&D 32 days ago, although didn't look the heartiest under pressure. Back on a winning mark.

Three turf wins last spring but has struggled on all-weather this winter.

Wish This (G)
[P1]
Blinkered first time, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Newcastle (6f) in November by ½ length from Kirkdale. First-time cheekpieces replace the blinkers now. Much depends on whether he's fully primed after 6 months off.

Sherlock (G)
Breakthrough Newcastle win over 5f at Newcastle in February was his 20th career start but first over a sprint trip. Sent off at 2/1 to follow up over 6f there but met all sorts of trouble and can have that run ignored. Player.
