Pickersgill (F)
Fair 6f winner in Ireland. Back on song for her current yard, patiently ridden when landing 9-runner handicap at Southwell (7f) in April. Up 5 lb but needs considering.

Impressor (G)

C&D winner in September. Took a step back in right direction with sixth of 12 in handicap at Carlisle (6f) 17 days ago. One to consider off a falling mark.

Carlton And Co (M)
Won 3 times in 2025, including at Newcastle (6f) in November. Off 5 months before a fading ninth in handicap at Catterick (7f) 24 days ago. Can build on it.

Novak (G)
On a losing sequence but this C&D winner comes here on the back of a good second of 9 in handicap at Ayr (7f) 15 days ago. Should remain competitive.

Thunderstorm Katie (M)
A five-time winner (including here) during a busy and productive 2025. Back on form of late, second of 6 at Ayr (5f) 15 days ago when not ideally placed. Can go well again.

Invincible Ruby (F)
Got off the mark in 7f handicap at Catterick last summer. Has struggled for form since though and has to be passed over.

Iris Dancer (M)
[B]
A 9-time C&D winner. Failed to build on earlier promise when tenth of 12 in handicap at Carlisle (6f) 17 days ago. No surprise to see him bounce back here though off a handy-looking mark.
