8th	1	3	Born A Star (G) Made all over C&D in August and better signs this season at Hamilton (8.3f) 3 weeks ago, again rather too enthusiastic back in a front-running role. Down another 3 lb and this return to 7f will suit.…	10-4688	Cieren Fallon C Johnston	3	61.2kg	10 9/1
5th	2	5	Sandy Craic (F) FAV P Yet to win but she's proving reliable and straightforward and fared easily the best of those ridden close to the pace when fifth in 20-runner 7f York handicap a fortnight ago. Cheekpieces go on and s…	255122	D Tudhope D O'Meara	3	61.2kg	2.75 7/4
2nd	3	9	Homestrait (F) P Won 7f Doncaster maiden and C&D seller last summer. Found a jolt of improvement for fitting of cheekpieces when going close at Catterick (7f) a fortnight ago, forcing the favourite to pull out all th…	422314	Ben Robinson B Ellison	3	60.8kg	7.50 13/2
6th	4	10	Wise Crack (G) Best effort in 4 maiden/novice events for John Ryan at 2 when third of 11 over 7f at Lingfield (polytrack) in September. Stepped up on first outing for this yard when fifth at Doncaster 3 weeks ago (…	8-05681	C Horgan Mrs R Carr	3	60.3kg	34 33/1

1st	5	2	Highland Shah (G) H Still looked a work in progress when fourth on return at Catterick (7f) last month, no less free for being gelded and fitted with a hood (Sandy Craic second). May come on for that and makes handicap …	43-413	Ryan Sexton Miss J A Camacho	3	60.3kg	7.50 13/2

7th	6	6	Stoic Poet (G) Matched the pick of his form dropped to this grade when second to a thriving winner at Haydock (7f) a fortnight ago. Unlikely to remain a maiden for long on that showing.	358-427	A Mullen I Jardine	3	60.3kg	6 5/1
3rd	7	7	Yorkshire Queen (F) Runner-up in a 6f selling nursery at Newcastle in November and made a promising return at Southwell (7f) early last month. Back to free-going ways at Haydock since though, and this looks tough.	524-493	Oliver Stammers Grant Tuer	3	59.4kg	11 10/1
4th	8	1	The Anthony Gover (G) B Matched previous form sent handicapping fitted with blinkers when sixth at Wolverhampton (7f) 3 weeks ago, not seen to best effect from a wide draw. Dropped 2 lb and could fare better here.	360646	Jack Doughty Dr R Newland & J Insole	3	58.1kg	10 9/1
9th	9	4	Maximum Velocity (G) His April Leicester second is strong form for the grade and he got back on the up with positive tactics employed as he opened his account in 7f Redcar handicap last month. Up 5 lb and that might not …	201932	Alex Jary N Tinkler	3	57.6kg	15 14/1

10th	10	8	Walk On Walk On (G) B Made the frame twice last year when trained by Des Donovan and emerged from the doldrums with new headgear fitted when fourth in 7f Redcar handicap last time. This is tougher.	064052	Jamie Gormley N Wilson	3	54kg	51 50/1
